Still into something good

Redditch Advertiser: From the 60s, through to the 21st century Herman’s Hermits are still into something good.From the 60s, through to the 21st century Herman’s Hermits are still into something good.
THE mid-60s music scene was dominated by British Groups, three of which became household names – The Beatles,The Rolling Stones, and… Herman’s Hermits.
From their beginning in Manchester in 1964, the band has chalked up more thanr 23 top 20 single records, 10 hit albums, three major movies and countless television shows and concert tours all over the world – up to date they have total record sales of more than 75 million.
Since 1971 and the departure of Peter Noone to pursue a solo career, the group has never stopped.
Original member, Barry (The Bean) Whitwam, has guided the group from strength to strength into one of the hardest working bands in the business – they still average more then 200 one night stands per year – and reckon they maintain their stamina by having an amazing sense of humour.
Their touring schedule takes them to Germany, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, the Scandinavian countries, Japan, USA , Canada, Australia and new Zealand on a regular basis and still find time to perform in their home country, packing in the audiences at every venue and delighting them with their solid musicianship, vocal ability and dynamic stage presence...

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
