I was contacted by Miss Cinthea T Coleman who had found an old postcard from the Rendezvous advertising upcoming gigs in September 1963. This is amazing! Thank you Cinthea!

"It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea

Very cool

That is really cool. Were the Righteous Brothers not famous yet? I was surprised to see them on the lineup.

MooreLoud.com - A tribute to Dick Dale.

As of September 13, 1963, the Righteous Brothers had released two chart records: "Little Latin Lupe Lu" the previous May, and "My Babe." The former reached #49 on the Billboard Top 100 chart; the latter had appeared on the chart for the first time only a week before their Rendezvous Ballroom appearance with the Sentinals ("Latin'ia" had been out for a year and a half, but the band's "Big Surf" LP was in the record stores).

The duo were on their way up, but "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" was over a year away.

I remember being a little surprised seeing the Righteous Brothers on a surf bill. I thought there was even a picture floating around here with them onstage but I couldn't find it. I did find the picture of Eddie and the Showmen backing The Coasters. The Righteous Brothers made an appearance in
in the Frankie and Annette beach movie Muscle Beach Party. Dick Dale and His Del-tones backed up Stevie Wonder for a number as well. The early '60s teen scene was obviously a more diverse hodgepodge of musical styles happily coexisting with surf music than we might remember.

I believe there are pictures of them on stage with The Challengers backing them.
