In Greek mythology, Pandora’s box (that should never, ever be opened) contained all the evils of the world. No wonder it was used as the name of one of LA’s most popular rock n’ roll nightclub.
The club was located at 8118 Sunset Boulevard, at the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Crescent Heights Boulevard. In 1962, the club was bought by deejay and Shindig! host Jimmy O'Neill. O'Neill's trendsetting booking policy made Pandora's Box the center of the Sunset Strip youth scene. It was at the center of the Sunset Strip curfew riots in the mid-1960s.

Once the group fell apart, Pullins moved to Nashville, where he was signed to Kapp Records, a subsidiary of Decca, in 1966. He was signed with the idea that he would capitalize on Roger Miller's success, which he did quite successfully with his first single, "I'm a Nut," an original tune that went all the way to 18 on the country charts. As success started to dry up, so did Pullins' writing, so he decided to retire from the music business, moving back to his hometown of Berea where he became a fireman.

Produced by Guerrage Productions 1969
Recorded in a garage studio, Berkeley CA

In its October 18, 1969 issue, Rolling Stone ran a tongue-in-cheek review of a non-existent album that purportedly captured a "super session" of the era's leading rock and roll musicians, including Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, John Lennon, and Paul McCartney. The review claimed that none of the artists could be listed on the jacket cover because of contractual agreements with their recording companies. The editors involved decided to extend the joke by hiring a relatively obscure band to record an actual album and then secured a deal with Warner Bros.

As an indication of how many people were taken in by the joke, The Masked Marauders fell just short of making Billboard's Hot 100. Rolling Stone editor Langdon Winner recruited the Cleanliness and Godliness Skiffle Band, a Berkeley, California, group which had an album the previous year on Vanguard Records and played frequently at San Francisco’s Fillmore and Avalon ballrooms.

Cleanliness and Godliness Skiffle Band: in the beginning there was the Instant Action Jug Band with Country Joe MacDonald and Barry Melton. Then came various versions of the skiffle band which went on to record as The Masked Marauders, which included Rolling Stone editor Langdon Winner.

Suzie Q was 100% written by Dale Hawkins but he was forced to share the songwriting credits with Stan Lewis, the owner of Jewel/Paula Records, and Eleanor Broadwater, the wife of Nashville DJ Gene Nobles. Thus he was forced to share the royalties with these embezzlers. Other than Creedence, the song was covered by The Astronauts, Rolling Stones, José Feliciano, Suzie Quatro (of course), Chet Atkins, Lonnie Mack, The Everly Brothers, and many others.

b. June 13, 1940 Alameda County, Ca – d. January 23, 2017 (aged 76) San Francisco

He started singing in a doo-wop group, the Romancers, in his early teens, and first recorded with them for Dootone Records in 1956. However, the group soon fell apart, and Freeman started a new group, the Vocaleers. When asked by a local DJ if he had written any songs, he produced a demo of "Do You Want to Dance". "Do You Want to Dance" quickly rose to number 5 on the pop chart and number 2 on the R&B chart in early 1958, when Freeman was still only 17. The song was covered later (as "Do You Wanna Dance") by Del Shannon, the Beach Boys, Johnny Rivers, Bette Midler, John Lennon, Cliff Richard, Marc Bolan & T.Rex, the Mamas & The Papas, Bobby Vee and the Ramones. He died of natural causes.

When CIUT’s Rick Fielding, sick and dying of cancer, released his last CD “Acoustic Workshop”, on the Borealis Records label in early 2004, CIUT broadcast the CD release live from the Borealis office. Rick was so sick that he could barely do a phoner from home. Stuart McLean was on hand to tell some stories which were like medicine for all those affected by Rick’s illness. So here’s a Rick Fielding performance dedicated to Stuart.

Ritchie Yorke
b. 12 January 1944 Brisbane, Australia – d. 6 February 2017 (aged 73) Brisbane, Australia

Author, broadcaster, historian and music journalist, whose work was widely published in the U.S., UK, Canada and elsewhere. In 1966, Ritchie left Australia for London, England to work for Island Records. With a desire for travel, Yorke arrived in Canada in 1967, settling in Toronto wheree he found work with the Toronto Telegram before being appointed the first full-time rock writer for Canada’s national newspaper, The Globe and Mail. He also became the Canadian editor of Billboard magazine from 1970 to 1980 and Rolling Stone magazine from 1969 to 1970.

In late 1969, Yorke assisted John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s “War Is Over!” peace campaign. He also helped plan the Montreal bed-in where Lennon’s peace anthem "Give Peace a Chance" was recorded, and was influential at getting The Plastic Ono Band to perform at the Toronto Rock and Roll Revival. He also appears on the Bad Manors album by Crowbar, credited with playing the anvil on "Prince Of Peace" and tambourine on "Oh What A Feeling”.

Yorke loved being in Canada because he loved the music being made here. He testified, quite convincingly to the CRTC, that Canada needed Canadian Content Regulations because radio stations did their utmost to deprive Canadian recordings access to the airwaves. His book Axes, Chops & Hot Licks, was the first book to cover Canadian music culture and the development of the Canadian content laws, as well as the first book to be devoted entirely to any music scene outside of the United States or England.

45 single bw I Was Kaiser Bill’s Batman: Derem Records – DM 112
London UK
John O'Neill: whistler
Unknown studio musicians
Produced by Noel Walker 1967

The Creation of Noel Walker, there was no actual Whistling Jack Smith. The name was a play on the name of the baritone singer of the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s, Whispering Jack Smith. Credited to Whistling Jack Smith, the record rose up the UK singles chart. When it was featured on Top of the Pops, actor Coby Wells was used to mime the whistling, and later toured as the public face of Whistling Jack Smith. (Wells' real name was Billy Moeller; he was born in 1946 and was a brother of Tommy Moeller, lead vocalist, guitarist, and pianist with Unit 4 + 2).

This tune, on the flip side of Kaiser Bill’s Batman, didn’t appear on the album.
