Joni au Go go

Some vids of interest:

Joni Mitchell filmed at the Cafe au Go Go in 1967.  Thanks to Domenic Priore for the link.




LENNONYC on pbs.org.  Good thing they put this up as I didn't see it listed on the Buffalo/Toronto PBS station's upcoming schedule at all.

And courtesy of the dangerously time-sucking Dangerous Minds, links to a 1981 BBC doc on the Chelsea Hotel, and the Punk episode of the 1995 PBS "Rock and Roll" doc series (which I do have, but on a VHS tape that's almost as degraded as the copy the YT uploader used).

12/2/71 issue.  I won't be collecting these ads in the future as show lists have already been compiled, but I thought I'd save the very first one.

O.K., that about wraps up this year...sorry it took so long to crank these out!  I think I'm gonna try to do one or two more research-oriented pieces before embarking on '72.

6/10/71 issue.  Hard to imagine a world where pizza was a novelty food, or that a cookbook about it would be penned by a Jewish author.  Just one of a zillion fantastic glimpses into early '70s lifestyles as provided by the non-music ads...including an even larger number of waterbed ads than were run in the previous year.

7/22/71 issue.  I was really hoping to find ads for this famous hair salon.  Of course I know the St. Mark's location would many years later become Coney Island High--but I had no idea he also had a shop in Flushing!

8/19/71 issue.


8/19/71 issue.  Didn't see too many ads for the original Hilly's.  Was he still running it even after opening on the Bowery?
