Georgie
Fame and the Blue Flames
7th August 1965.
The Blue Flames were originally Billy Fury's backing band , but when
Fury sacked them in 1961 they continued as a band . featuring Georgie Fame as
frontman and during their time they had the following line up- Georgie Fame
- organ/vocals ,John McLaughlin/Colin Green - guitar ,Mick Eve/Peter Coe - saxophone,Tony
Makins/Boots Slade/Cliff Barton - bass guitar, Red Reece/Phil Seaman/Micky Waller/Bill
Eyden/Mitch Mitchell - drums,Speedy Acquaye - congas,Johnny Marshall/Glenn Hughes
- baritone saxophone, Eddie Thornton - trumpet. We are not completely sure of
the lineup in 1965, so we would appreciate any help with identifying the musicians
in these stills. The Blue Flames set here revelas them to be a potent R &
B band and well deserving of their reputation as a live combo.
The stills below were taken from
an archival film that exists of the 1965 show, recorded for the US TV show Shindig
but it is not known just how much footage of the set exists.
