The days of pop tours are over for Herman HERMAN'S HERMITS
have had it too easy over the past five years.
They never really had to work for success. It jusl happen~. They never took It seriously and wasted a lot or time.
This Is the considered opinion of Mr Peter Blair Noone. who Is of course Herman, delivered to me In his dressing room at the BBCs Goklers Green studios last week when the group were on a children's TV programme.
" It all Just happened for us. Seventeen hits in a row without really ever having to sweat. We used to mess about with recording without taking things too seriously," said Peter as he held hands with his attractive wife Mireille. "We have changed that now. We are prepared to work hard In the future."
Scripts
Bu~f ::;s~r:e!~~ m~:af~~ the Hermits are OUT.
" We can never do another pop tour. We've learned our lesson there. We're not a pop act any more, we can't go back five years and do a 20 minute spat on a tour. We're too good for that now, and so
are the fans . And we know now that we can't do another film, either. I may be able to do one on my own, but the group ... No. There just Isn't a film you can make with a group. I've seen all the scripts and they're ridiculous."
Cabaret
What then Is the Cuturc of the Hermits? I inquired. "In the recording side and in cabaret," replied Peter, who Is stlll only 21 despite fh•c ~ood years in the pop business.
"The group Is bigger round the world than it has ever been. Now people want to see the Hermits all over the place and not just in America. In the future, we will be concentrating on good cabaret work In the top places. What I'd like to do is spend six months a year working at places like Miami and Las Vegas and Australia - where the sun Is. We plan to follow the sunspots around and spend our time working and having holidays at the same time.
"The money doesn't
BY ALAN WALSH matter. Money never has mattered to me. I Just spend it anyway. It's only Important if you haven't got enough to do the things you want lo do."
The group are about to embark on a summer of cabaret appearances.
"We are doing a couple or weeks in Manchester and Sheffield as sort of rehearSals and then we are going off to Israel and then to Hong Kong, the Philippines, Australia where we are doing three weeks at Chequers in Sydney and then to Mexico for cabaret in Mexico City and on to America for a few concerts and TV shows. We've always done work abroad In the summer and this will be the pattern or the group in the future."
Policy
Peter believes that his policy of combining work and play is one that could effectively be adopted by people like Elvls Presley and the Beatles.
"The Beatles should pick some work they want to do and do it., while they
still can otherwise they'll get to 30 and won't be able to. 1 think they think that appearances now would be the same as they were when It was all Beatlemania. But it wouldn't. They could play the things they wanted to play and people would listen, I'm sure they would. I think the days or the screamers are over.
Danger
" It's the same with Elvis. He probably thinks that If he did a few shows, it'd be all down to the way It was 10 years ago. But. today he'd be more of a Frank Sinatra-type artisL He could play really nice places ... the Free Trade HaU, and Royal Albert Hall.
"The danger for people like the Beatles and Elvis is that not working makes you old."
And Peter echoed the sentiments or millions of fans when he said earnestly: "l'd go and sec them, wouldn't you?"
I asked Peter about the group's new hit, "My Sentimental Friend," currently following the
group's 16 previous smashes up the Pop 30.
·• It's a Geoff Stephen song. We were working in Switzerland when he played it to us. To be honest, I wasn't excited by It at first. but we recorded It. I didn ' t like It the way we did it at first. It should have been an Engelbert Humperdlnck number really, but we changed the whole idea or It and did it again and it grew on me and we finally got it nice.
" I'm pleased with the way It's moving, though." I asked if the group - or Peter - ever got the urge to record a single completely different to anything they've done before.
Fatal
" I've never claimed to be a good singer. I can only sing certain things and there's a lot I can't do. I know the group's limitations and we won't try and step beyond them.
" Mickie Most claims I once said to him that we should record • In The Midnight Hour' but I never did, It was the Animals, I think, who said thaL
" For a group like the Hermits doing something like that would be fatal."

S,nce leaving Buie , Jimmy has been his own boss. e He e njoy ed a reVTul of popularity in the mid Fiftie1, and considerably in creased his following when he brought his ample trame and talents to Brit;un in '57 ,nd again in '58, when he impr<!ned everyone h<! met with h,s likeable, easy-10,ng disposition , fervent Singing, •nd 11tte, professionalism hom th.it t,me, too, he began to win top placings ,n 1ua: poll, here ,nd ,n the SI.lites.

BOB DYLAN: "I Threw It All
Away" (CBS). Dylan"s latest album is a success and this track from " Nashville Sky· line " is one of the bes t songs.
Has vn ice has changed yet ;"tgam, but of course hP is getti ng older and he sounds a fa r cry from the chuc kli ng youth of yester • yea r
Th ere 1s much sadn ess in his freq uently out of tune dtspera tion and often st ra ngkd mtona tion.
Superb COLOSSEUM: " Walking
In The Park ., (Fontana). It seems odd people should ask " Where is the excitement in today 's scen e?" when Jon Hiseman is m our midst.
His s uperb bantl in a few months have become th e rage of the co llege and c lub circuit and their first a \bum is one of the best buys on th e market.
This tremendous, towering t our de force is a t rack from " Those About To Die" and should be a monste r hit - if those dee jays woul d do their job.
SANDIE SHAW: "Think It All Over" (Pye). A mus t for the South London weddm g reception c ircuit and hot competition for such old fa vourites as " Kn ees Up M o I h e r
MELODY M A KER. M ay 10, 1969-PaJt 13
Out of tune sadness from Dylan
Brown " anti " March Of The Mods."
A Ge rman brass band bea t, Sandie in chee rrul mood on a bright Chris Andrews' song mus t mea n success .
I forsee stout , rea -faced women indulging in mass ga llumping to this with the kind of determined
!i~ilhe~~~! Pofts a~f8 ; i}r!~ musi cians with delica te a r t i st i c temperaments fo rced by circumstances to play at the bawdy feasts that rage from Peckham to Camberwe ll of a Sa tu rday night.
JOSE FELICIANO: "Marley Purt Drive" (RCA Victor) . A song written by the Bee Gees from the ir album, and with inte rest• ing lyrics and a solid beat sounds an obv ious chart entry.
VELVET OPERA: " Anna Dance Square " (CBS). A bright, ente rLa ining square dan ce, much in the mood of a Dave Maso n compos ition Traffic used to play.
Nice guitars and a compulsive dance beat.
BLUE CHEER: "West Coast Child or Sun· shine" (Phillips). Widely slagged off by other bands, Blue Cheer aren't so bad really and were saddled with that unfortunate bit about being " the loudest band in the world ."
They can' t be anyway, the Who are still the loudest!
JACQUES LOUSSIER, " Themf: From Tu Seras Terrlblement Gentille" (Decca). Gentle froggy

SOLOMON BURKE: " Proud Mary •· (Bell). Solomon is a fine a r tist and a lo t bet • ter than ma ny in the sou l idiom. (God, nea rly said bag. did n't I?).
Th is 1s slow- paced a nd rocki n~ withou t being s ta rt lingly or igi na l. For some odd reason Solomon s tops s ing ing complete ly ha lf way through and noth ing e lse happens.
Pe rhaps they fo rgot t o mix the iuita r solo?
R O G E R WHITT AKER, ., Mistra l " (Columbia). A fr iend claims he is plagued by a wh istling postman and ~ as co_ns idermg reporting him ei ther to the public hea lth authorities or Opportunity Knocks.
It is debatable if t he post man can be as ta lented as Roger whose abi lity with the old pursed lips gea r is a byword in wh istli ng circles. As a member of the British Whis tle rs and Hummers League I wish I had his tone, t echn ique and attack.
My sli ghtly off-pitch version of Lionel Hampton's " Fly ing Home " only scraped by w ith a si lver medallion a t the las t convention. Roger does more singing than wh istlinJZ; here, a nd I'm afraid this will ha ve to be reported to th e committee.
PAUL KORDA, "Seagull" (Parlophone). Pa ul is to be admired for Ms multi talents and is remembered for his part in Hair. This is a delicate ballad and is not in tune with current trends I fear .
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL U.S.A. NUMBER ONE HIT l
JOHNNY WI NTER: " Rollin' And Tumblin' .. (Liberty). Amer ican t,:u11arist who kicks up a s torm on the old favourit e.

MISUNDERSTOOD: .. You're Tuff Enough ., (Fontana). Not a pa rticula rly good record. More important is t he a rriva l on the scene of Glenn " Ferna ndo" Campbe ll a nd S I e ve Hoa rd , two young Amer icans who ha ve a ll t he potent ia I to set t he scene a lig ht
This 1s the ir first release backed by Eng lish musicians including David O'List who was with the Nice.

Bette r things w ill be forth coming. In t he meant ime watch out for Steve a nd Glenn.
Strange
JETHRO TULL: " Living ln The Past•· (Island). St range but interesting sound from the Jethros in five four time and with more of Ian Anderson's fine fluting.
This is the most musical release of the week along with Jon Hiseman's offerIng and proves our bands are still t he best around, he said getting patriotic .

Clodagh Rodgers listens to some recent records
BLIND DATE
FRANKI E VA U G -HAN: " The Same
Old Way " (Columbia). It's Frankie yaughan
The opening 1s better than the actual song. I don't think the punchline is very strong. Frankie is very good and he has a big following, but I doubt ir this v..ill be a hit - altlaiourh with people hke Donald Peers getting back m the ch&.rt I don't really know.
THE HERD: "The Game" (Fontana).
I don't know wh".l this is. Again, the openinJ i;; better than the rest of it. I don't think tht production is very good \Vho is it? The Herd - I'd never ha ve guessed I have got all their records and like them, but this seems to be a messy production Nothing is clear and pre:-cise and you can't hear the lyrics I liked it at the beginning, but then that middle-eight put me right off it.
EMPEROR ROSKO: "The Opposite
Lock " (Polydor). It's terrible. l don't
know why he bothered to go into a studio and make It. That's the worst record I've heard this yt>ar. And J thought those backing wa-oos went out ten years ago. If he was a good singer it might have been worth doing, but the whole thing is awful Who is it? Rosko?
Oh well, he didn"t play my record on his show, anyway.
pAUL JONES: "It's Getting Better "
(Parlophone). Paul Jones. No, l don't
like it. I'm sure I've heard this song before. That little catch line about " It's Getting Better " is the best part of the
WOODY HERMAN: " Light My Fire "
(from the Cadet album " Light M y Fire " CRLS 4544) .
It's great. Fantastic! This must please all the big band fans and I shall just have to go out and buy the album, It's great and there's nothing more to be said.

It's a she seemed to be flat at pity, because Paul is such the beginning. I can't a good artist. This is just stand her voice.

don't like this at all.
A ND y WILLIAMS: " Happy Heart "
(CBS). Oh, wonderful! I'm in
love with Andy Williams. My whole ambition is to appear on the Andy Williams Show. He can do no wrong as far as I am concerned. He could sing " Baa Baa Black Sheep " and I would think it was greal. This is just beautiful. I wouldn't be a bit surprise? if it was a big chart hit for him, too, though Pet Clark has got the same record out and I like her as well. J ;;;~~have to buy both of
CREEDENCE CLEARWATER
R E V I V A L: " Proud Mary " (Liberty).
It's just not my kind of record I can't think of anything to say about it because 1t•~ just not the sort of record I listen to.
CHUCK BERRY: "No Particular Place
To Go •· (f r o m the
Chess LP " Chuck Berry's Greatest Hits " CRL 4548).
Chuck Berry. I like him. That is a very good LP and I'm sure it will be a big seller. A lot of people are really going for that kind of stuff again now.
SPINNERS: "When The Old Dun Cow
Caught Fire " (F o n • tana).
Oh God, it's terrible! Take it off. Who was it? The Spinners? I know they have quite a follow• ing but I don't like that kind of music.
GORDON WALLER: "I Was A Boy
When You Needed A Man" (Bell).
It'~ not a ve!Y strong openmg. Who 1s it? He was much better when he was with Peter Asher. This is definitely not a hit. He is in the same bag as Paul Jones but I think the Paul Jones record stands a better chance of making it.
BETTY EVERETT· " I Can't Say N~
To You" (MCA). It sounded a little bit
like Aretha Franklin at the beginning. Could 11 be Betty Everett? She is very good but has never been able to get a followup to her big hit. This isn't_ a very good song and 1t won't be a hit
KENNY BALL: "The Night They Raided
Minsky's" (Fontana). Kenny Ball. No, de
fini,tely not a hit. There isn t an opening for this kmd of music now in tht" chart at all I don·t know whether it will ever come back - it probably will m about ten years So hang about Ken. '

But Britain wa s never qu ite as sick socially as America is today.
"When we went from Chicago to New York via Pennsy lvania, we were knocked out by the scenery, the beautiful co lours or the leaves a nd the hills . It was unforgettable. But then we got to t he city and passed a shop selling bazookas, shot gun ; and hand g renades . And we read advertise ments m the magazines which said 'Protect your children with this mach ine gun·"

Moody Blurs met the p,roup1es - and they had n't changed a bit

The best indication of the sexual evolution of Graeme Edge is the stor~ of the group's meetin~ with a girl in Los Angeles.
"She was rathe r plump and plain, but she was very fr iendly and she invited us all back to dinner - a knock-out meal or roast beer and roast potatoes. Engli sh sty le. She was a divorcee with two lovely kids a nd she was hung up on En~lish ba nds.
" We vis ited her all the t ime we were in Los Angeles and she was great company. She showed us the beach and it was Jus t a completely innocent , friendly relationship. But it mea nt more to us than all the sexobsessed scrubbers in the world.
"Any British group which has been away from ho me ro r a long period and has been repeatedly torpedoed in the stomach by hambu rge rs, will jump at t he offer of a home-cooked English-sty le meal."
Grubby Because of the giggle-
provoking association hetween sC:x and hot di nners, it ,nay seem laughably naivr: that Edge finds significance in t hat fact t hat a good hot d inne r took precedence over all kinds of sexua l invitations.
But he sees it as a
MEWDY MAKER. May 10, 1969--Page 17
measure of his reah1at1on rhat the time had come when the raving had to stop, of his awareness that gratuitous and rather grubby sex ultimately becomes as appetising as the 150th hamburger
'' I sometimes think that if I could meet myself as I was five years ago I'd think lhal J was II riitht berk. But it 1s a sta~e you have to go through. Some of those g roupies in the old days we re really beauti ful g irl s a nd a little fat ha iry s lob like me had never had a chance to sleep w ith birds hke that."
Revolt
What depresses Edge about t he American groupies today is tha t t heir drea ry promiscu ity has become some sort o f symbol of revolt. " As if all you needed to put the world right was to tear you r clothes off and s leep arou nd. I can' t condemn them on moral g rounds, but I'm distressed to thi nk that so many of · them con ruse free love with free copulation.
" Everyone expects the younger generation to moan and rebel and to be nonconformist, but it's no good replacing one set or prejudices with another.
"If you are a gi rl brought up by parents who say you must neve r s leep with a man, and you react by sleeping with every man in sight, you a re being just as bigoted a nd fanatical as your parents.
" The ta lk in the States is
all so negative Theo younge r generation should be working posit1\.ely to put thi ngs right - but the:,. JUSI don't know what to do. So they settle aimlessly fo r caus ing gner to the older generation by smoking pot , us ing fou r leuer words and p retending that sex 1s love
Sad " I f the American rebr-ls
won their fight agamst the establishment, they'd be in exactly tht same pr~ icamen t as the French stu dents were last summer They just would n 't know what to do. That's what's so !ad "
It could be a rgued that Gra eme Edge, hav ing had his sexua l fling among th l"' groupies, is now adopt ing a hypocrit ical " Ho lier-than• thou " attitude a bout the scrubber morality.
But he insists: "I'm not being p r im about sex - I'm just sick of the lud ic rous importance which is attached to it and I also feel it's a great pity that most people don't have the op• portunity I had to discover the phoniness of the sexual dream as fostered by the communications industry.
Love
" I've been th rough it and now. for the firs t t ime, I'm finding out w hat love is; but an aw rul lot of people will n ever find it because they 've been corrupted by those fantasies. It's t he saddest and most devastating confidence trick in t he world." THE END

Cliff began his sbtging career with blues, Including a partnership with harmonica player Royd Rivers. Cliff took over from Gerry Lockran bul later went solo. Up until just over a year ago Cliff was semi-professional, retaining his job with the FJectrfcity Board as a research worker.
But increased demands for Cliff's services In folk clubs brought him to the conclusion that he would have to choose between the two - and folksinging won.
In 1966 Oiff got a good break when he was asked to compare A Cellar Full Of Folk, the predecessor to Country Meets Folk, on which he has since made regular broadcasts.
His approach to music has gradually broadened and one of the reasons for

A trio defying neat labelling and convenient categorisation
With his change in repertoire Cllff is setting his sights outside the folk club circuits. " I like to dabble in pop but I'd like to try and take my style into the pop world. In about three months time I'd like to try and start lo move Into other things but that depends on the success of the single, I think.
"I'd like to go into cabaret ir I could get away from my usuaJ kind of music. In thfl last five years, we've had a large percentage of traditional singers but now you've got to be an Instrumentalist or scene. That's the way It songwriter on the ro1k is now. The copyists are getting left behind.

8. 8. KING: ' words cannot really describe his power and magnificence •
B. B. MAKES A DREAM COME TRUE ON TUESDAY April 22 a dream of the last three years came true - seeing B. B. King live. We were not disappointed. Words cannot really describe his power and magnificence. Suffice to say he is the best. - PETE and SUE BOULTER, Watford.
UP HERE in Scotland we are starved of good blues tours. We would like to hear the 8. 8. King and Fleetwood Mac tour, but it's not coming north.
There is a vast untapped audience of blues followers to be reached, so promoters ple,,se note - we are not ail Ken neth McKeflar fans in Scotland. TOM PATERSON . Glasgow,
