He's cautious and deliberate, and his facial expressions are a joy to watch. #donaldsutherland #backdraft #interview @Gazely Gaze </video> <video> Bernard Cribbins on Brewing Beer, 1973 Description: Bernard Cribbins shows how beer is brewed, with his uncles, cousins and other 'relatives'. He plays all the characters explaining the beer brewing process in 'I Know What I Like', a short made by Rank Films for The Brewers Society in 1973. The old brewery shown looks a lot like Fullers' Griffin Brewery in Chiswick in west London. It's still there - and they have visitor tours where you can enjoy a similar experience to Bernard's! As do Youngs across the Thames in Wandsworth - and likely many more old breweries across the UK, Belgium and elsewhere.

Smokey Robinson & Miracles' unheard original! Description: Smokey Robinson & the Miracles wrote the song but NEVER released it - instead it was a huge hit for Marvin Gaye. Yet here they are performing 'Ain't That Peculiar' on Hullabaloo on January 31 1966 - just three months after Gaye's version. It's not known if they mimed here to an earlier demo or recorded it again for this show. Just 55 seconds of an ultra rarity! (btw yes, it's real ... difficult to tell these days.) #SmokeyRobinson #AintThatPeculiar #TamlaRarity @Gazely Gaze </video> <video> Memphis Slim 'Baby Doll' live 1965 Description: Memphis Slim playing his 'Baby Doll' song with new lyrics live on TV in France, 1965.

Filmed for TV in France, where he resided after leaving the USA in 1962 following European tours with Willie Dixon, until his death in 1988. His real name was John Len Chatman, though for his early recordings in 1940 he used his father's name, Peter Chatman. Confusing things further, his songwriting was credited as L.C. Frazier and he was also known as Mr. Longfingers, because ... This song though, was credited to a Floyd Hunt - the only song on 'At the Gate of Horn' not written by Slim, aka LC Frazier. His most famous song is 'Every Day I have the Blues'. He's been inducted into the Memphis Hall of Fame: https://memphismusichalloffame.com/inductee/memphisslim/ and also posthumously to the Blues Hall of Fame in 1989. While he lived, he was given the title of 'Commander in the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres' by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of France.

It's the climax to a half-hour TV feature on the '74 festival with Arlo Guthrie and Louden Wainwright III, etc, now on this channel too. @StivellAlan #AlanStivell #CambridgeFolkFestival #celticmusic @Gazely Gaze </video> <video> Jon Hendricks - a D-Day black soldier veteran with racist white officers Description: Jazz singer Jon Hendricks took part in a segregated black D-Day landing in France. Abused by racist officers but welcomed by local French girls, soon he deserted and was shot at by US soldiers - then court-marshalled and sentenced to 3 years jail. Here he returns to a Normandy beach in 1994 with a daughter(s?) for the 50th anniversary of the D-Day landings. In 2004 a film 'Back to Normandie' was made. "It was a step above slavery. To be put into a segregated army - in a nation that pretends to be a democracy - and pretends to be fighting Nazism - is a joke! It's bizarre. The officers were all white, and racist. If they said Good Morning to you, it was an insult. They just had hatred, which had been drummed into them since they were babies from the womb. White people in the South were well-taught." Jon Hendricks was most known as part of the ground-breaking multiracial vocal group Lambert Hendricks & Ross, pioneering 'vocalese' and working with Charlie Parker, Count Basie and many others. He wrote the lyrics to Georgie Fame's no. 1 hit 'Yeh Yeh' amongst many other songs. He lived to the age of 96, in 2017. #DDay #JonHendricks #LambertHendricksRoss @Gazely Gaze </video> <video> 'TipToe Thru the Tulips' Nick Lucas 1947 Description: Nick Lucas scheming for girls to Tiptoe Through the Tulips, serenading with a mental guitar solo.
