The Old Grey Whistle Test

One of the 'forgotten' greats of british music - whatever happened to the young bass player in this video?

Good mates with Daevid Allen whose Gong band i thought were ace.

One memory that springs to mind is Bob Marley and the Wailers performance of 'Stir it up'. A real classic.

Loved the Whistle Test, the only place to a degree at the time where you could see and listen to something that wasn't geared for top of the pops.
Ps loved the vid of Stanley and George (R.I.P.) saw them at the Apollo.

We're just scratching the surface here , but the clips people have posted gives you some idea of the incredible diversity of talents and styles of music and musicians way back then (I feel old now) , compared to the processed "McMusic" of today (I sound old now)!

Thankyou flb. I think on the same show he sang 'kinky reggae' but this was Marley at his best. Also, a very early appearance on English T.V.
