Alan Merrill (John Lennon set)
Links
He was the lead singer and songwriter of the first and original 1975 version of "I Love Rock N Roll" with his band, The Arrows. The song has become an enduring international rock anthem, recorded by Joan Jett, Britney Spears, and many others. Joan Jett saw Merrill perform the song on a British television pop show in '76, while on tour with her band, The Runaways, and she was deeply inspired. Her 1982 version of the song was #1 for 8 weeks in the USA.Alan Merrill was literally born into the world of music. Named Allan Sachs at birth, his parents, Helen Merrill, and sax/clarinetist Aaron Sachs of Earl 'Fatha' Hines Band, are world-renowned musicians. After starting to play music in semi-pro bands in Greenwich Village, Alan eventually moved to Japan in his late teens. Starting his professional career in music with the RCA-Victor Tokyo-based recording group, The Lead, in 1968, Alan replaced Mark Elder as guitarist in the band. They had one hit single, titled "Blue Rose." It was also then that his management changed his professional name to Alan Merrill.
Sean Yox & the Streamers (Beatles Lennon set)
Links
Sean Yox -The Streamers make a good bridge between the New York garage punk of the '70s/'80s and the hip garage band scene of today. Rocking out with all the abandon of the rock personalities of yesterday but frequently holding to the idealism and optimism of today's left leaning bands, The Streamers have an infectious enthusiastic approach to music that will have even the most cynical dancing around the room.

Sean recently toured Europe for 11 months and band is getting out with new album. Listen to new Single " Angela" ANGELA

LIVE at MERCURY LOUNGE / NEW YORK 217 HOUSTON ST
