early Belairs picture

supertwangreverb - 11 Aug 2005 13:50:38

Their is a still picture that is shown during the Southbay Reunion VHS
tape while the Belairs are playing, and it's one of the "early
Belairs" and it's got Eddie playing a Jaguar. Does anyone know if
that was put in any CD liner notes? I've got Volcanic Action and it's
not in that one. Anyone have a copy of this picture?
Thanks,
Bill

It's available in the lengthy booklet that's included with the
Belairs' "And the Originas of Surf Music" CD (Iloki-Hep Cat).
Notice that Paul's also on a Jaguar in that photo, and they're both
plugged into blonde piggyback amps (Bandmasters, I think). Eddie
also has a bleached-blonde hairdo (it doesn't even look like him),
and they're all wearing matching cardigans - something you'll really
appreciate! The caption by the photo says: "The Belairs, late '62;
only existing photo of the band from period of Dickie Dodd on
drums". So, this was right before Eddie and Dickie split to form
Eddie & the Showmen. Cool photo.

Ivan,
Thanks, maybe I'll have to get that CD, even if I've already got
half those songs. It looked like they had on cardigans from glance
I had at this photo. I dig those old photos.

You'll like some of the obscure songs on the disc, Bill. I'd be
willing to bet you start playing "Davy Crocket/ Mickey Mouse club
theme" after you hear it. It reminded me of the Reluctant
Aquanauts and the "mayberry RFD" theme song.
