Other Sixties Bands at Skegness - Vanity Fare, Steve Ellis, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich, and Cliff Bennett and the Rebel Rousers

It seems strange that all these minor sixties bands were still going and making a living on the sixties circuit. I think a lot of people like the simple pop songs of the early sixties rather than the more complex, sophisticated and deeper music of the later sixties Progressive and Psychedelic scene.

I found it interesting to have a look at the bands I was listening to when I was fourteen and fifteen but I would not want to do it again for the great majority. I prefer something I can get my teeth into.

I stopped for a few minutes to check out Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich (now incongruously in their 70s?), Vanity Fare, Cliff Bennet & the Rebel Rousers (not sounding or looking too rebellious) and Steve Ellis from Love Affair, but I didn’t stay.
