The B Side of their last major hit song You’ve Got What It Takes. The thing that gets overlooked about The Dave Clark 5 is their sense of timing and tightness as a band. They began as a mostly instrumental dance band built around the sax playing of Dennis Payton. While many dismissed the band for their standard hit songs that mostly featured Dave Clarks pounding of the drums, Doctor Rhythm shows off their ability to rock any dance floor.

b. December 5, 1938 / d. July 26, 2013 La Jolla CA)
JJ Cale was one of the unsung heroes of the guitar. Well respected, his music was usually based on grooves. My only complaint about his earlier albums was that the songs were too short! Like, once into the groove, you don’t want it to end so soon. His songs were covered by Eric Clapton, Johnny Cash, Phish, Kansas, Bill Wymans Rhythm Kings, George Thorogood and The Destroyers, Lynard Skynayrd, The Band, Waylon Jennings, Bobby Bare & Captain Beefheart. Just to name a few!

Edward Steven Phillip Shack
b. Sudbury, ON Feb 11, 1937 / d. Toronto July 25, 2020 (83)
Originally known as The Bob Mark Six, this Toronto band was signed to Arc Records and became The Secrets. They released "Crying Over Her" on ARC Records which helped raise their profile and get them better live bookings.
While playing at the Toronto Pressmen's Club, CBC TV's Brian MacFarland (b. August 10, 1931 New Liskeard, ON – was on Hockey Night in Canada from 1964 - 91) introduced himself to the band and wanted the band to record a song he'd written for the Toronto Maple Leafs' winger Eddie Shack called "Clear The Track (Here Comes Shack)". The band agreed under the assumption that the recording was a gift for McFarland's hockey playing friend. However, much to their surprise, and that of their label ARC Records, the song was released nationally under the name Douglas Rankine With The Secrets on RCA's Canadian International label. The band was embarrassed by the release and tried to distance themselves from it despite reaching #1 on the CHUM Chart in February 1966 and managing No.56 on the national charts by April of 1966 for total run of nine weeks radio play.
Now signed to Arc's Yorkville Records imprint, the Secrets wanted to distance themselves from being pigeon-holed as a "novelty act" and soon changed their name to The Quiet Jungle. Their first single, "Ship Of Dreams", was released in early 1967, and reached #31 on the CHUM chart (and No.43 nationally) by February. The record achieved the desired effect in leaving the previous single a memory and gave the band a renewed spirit.
During the 1966 season Shack broke out, scoring a career high 26 goals on a line with Ron Ellis and Bob Pulford.
