I love to see the way Mike was having a good time!! Did you see that he was dancing?

[Bsidehep]

@maiavazbrazil That is just so great! We had never noticed that Mike Landon stayed there and was dancing. Very Very cool! He was good too and you're right he was having a good time. And Dione Warwick in the go go cage as well. Maybe the band's new record Time tunnel will help that happen. We are seeing signs of it in early release here. For those interested check The Fifth Estate website. Remember The D-Men and The Fifth Estate are the same band.

Yes, it´s really a great band. Just wondering what they are doing today. Still on the road? My hobby is to discover unknown but good rock bands from all over the world and specially from the mid 60s. Listen, for example, to The Misunderstood, The Lords and of course THE ZETTLERS and their versions of "Skinnie Minnie" and "Beautiful Delilah".

@TheSunbau The D-Men known as The Fifth Estate since 1967 just recorded their new album TIME TUNNEL to be released on 11 - 11 - 11 ! It was mixed and exec produced by Shel Talmy who did The Kinks, The Who, Easybeats, Manfred Mann and early David Bowie. They have been in the studio recording and are rehearsing to get out to support it.

I love this! What's that song at the end?! I've been trying to find out forever!

A great band, although their seeming fascination with the occult (D-Men, aka "Demon", and their biggest hit as the Fifth Estate being, "Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead") is somewhat of a concern. That said, their records are nonetheless great. Their Jubilee label album as the Fifth Estate contains a great cover of the Monkees' "I'm A Believer".

I'm really looking forward to hearing Time Tunnel. And ever since I heard that Bob Klein aka "Bobby Lee" was back with the band and the song "Things Change" is on the album I am more psyched. Can't wait til they start touring.

A cracking song!

Bsidehep - Thank you for your comments!

Open your eyes and ears to discover the amount of relatively unknown bands that existed during that period.

@Bsidehep Do you have any clips of him co-hosting?

[Bsidehep]

@pxbx91 I have a number of these Hullabaloo full shows and on this one Brian Epstein was a co-host. He was often involed in these shows. They had him speak some from time to time and on this one from England he also introduced Joe Brown and His Brothers (band).
