Had never heard of the Phone Booth until the recent listings you posted, then I came across a clip of the Magicians--"Invitation To Cry" from Nuggets--playing there in a half-hour show devoted to the band that ran on WCBS Channel 2 in New York on 2/13/66, available in three parts on YouTube.

Nothing is lost in the age of the interweb.

I've seen that footage, and several years ago I also saw some Rascals footage filmed there which sadly I haven't been able to find again. I did a post about the joint a while back too. http://streetsyoucrossed.blogspot.ca/2010/05/clark-kents-got-nothing-on-me.html

The Rascals footage was part of a four-part documentary on ABC called "Anatomy of Pop: The Music Explosion." It ran in February '66, apparently, making that a good month for the Phone Booth's publicist. There's a chapter about the show in the memoir of the producer, Stephen Fleischman, that you can scope out on GoogleBooks. YouTube does have a clip of the Supremes in the studio recording "My World Is Empty Without You" from the program.

I see an ad for Kenny's Pub on E.84th; it eventually took on the moniker Kenny's Castaways, with Springsteen doing a show there December '72 just before his first album came out (one ad had it "Springstein"). The space was some kind of dance club up til about ten years ago--don't know what's there now.

Found it interesting to see the ad for the Chuck Berry show at the Village Theater, which puts music in there a lot earlier than I knew; a friend saw Coltrane there at Xmas '66, which is still 15 months before Bill Graham takes over.

Thanks as always for the goods!

I just wanted you to know how much I enjoy your blog. I enjoy all the information you provide, the old ads and the pics. I've always been fascinated with NYC, but I've never lived there. Visited many times. Also a huge Dylan fan, and I know he lived in the village and played Carnegie Hall, Cafe Wha?, and the Gaslight. Anyway, keep up the great works and thanks.
