    I heard the album Next... when it came out in 73 and was mesmerised. That and The Impossible Dream still remain favourites all these years later. Such a shame we lost Alex so long ago.

    I saw them only once in 74 or 75 and this brought all those memories back. Alex's theatrics, Zal the clown and the weird legs apart bassist in his blue suit and cod piece.
    For the Framed number Alex produced what looked like a flick knife but actually had a hair comb instead of a blade.

Technically the first live band I ever saw were called Strider - the support band on this gig. I went out the next morning and bought their album, too. That's how it worked back then.

    In my teenage years, I'd party on Friday and Saturday nights, but always wanted to get home in time for the late-night showing of In Concert. I saw SAHB on that show, and had no clue about them (nor what to make of them) other than those few tunes - and no internet existed to help me figure it out.
    It's fun to look back 50 years and see them now. What a crew!

    Wow! This is the In Concert that introduced me to SAHB! I haven’t seen it since that night in 1974 when me and my older brother stayed up late to watch it. We were both blown away as we had never seen anything like them. Not long after that I left home for the Navy and was sent to my first duty station on Guam. There, I went to the on base Exchange store, lo and behold, there was their Live album. I was like “No freakin’ way!” I quickly bought it and wore it out. I now have it on CD! Thank you for putting it on YT for me to relive that moment!

    • @leehagen7925
      @leehagen7925 Před rokem +4

      Same here. I watched this, was blown away and the next day I went out and found a copy of 'Next'. Couldn't wait 'til they came to town. Saw them the first time at the Whisky (probably in '75). Wow! What a show! They had bagpipe players and some scantily clad women on stage with the band but I couldn't take my eyes off of Cleminson. Then saw them three nights at the Roxy out of a five night run. (One of my photos I shot at the Roxy is in the SAHB book, even though the writer never sent me a copy. Nice guy) Last time was at the Santa Monica Civic. They opened for Stix. Ten minutes or so into their show, people were still screaming for SAHB to return. Great band.
