Just saw a short doc about The LiverBirds - all girl Beatles contemporary - one member said John Lennon said they would fail and "girls don't play guitars.."??? StarClub Records..

Hey Matt Calrke, phat in licoln, sam the ram, love2laf, Handy, medson, paul webster, steveo pgalub, rx scabin, LesleyK, watchpocket -- Thanks so much for listening and commenting!
  12:14pm
DG:

Yes, I saw some Liverbirds clips (I think by hearing about them on M. Shelley's list below the playlists), another little-known R&R story. Lennon could be a dick at times; I've heard other stories about him being rude to other musicians (there's a story about the Turtles too). OTOH, Peter Noone said he was usually easy to talk to & once complimented him on his record being a hit. He seemed to have mellowed in his later years, making his early demise that much more tragic.

Good morning Mike S.and OS listeners. Greetings from SF. Great set, Mike! Especially love Byrds version of great

Ray Davies said Lennon tried to intimidate him - no doubt cause Ray's talent threatened him. Still in street behavior mode.

DG:

Love Ray Davies, & that makes sense....I can see Lennon being intimidated by his talent (I put RD up there w/L&M, Dylan & a few others). I think Davies had said some disparaging things about the Fabs too, so maybe that was after the Lennon encounter. I guess JL was just a jealous guy....

has anyone seen Scott Walker and Brian Ferry in he same room? (maybe I'm overreacting)

@DG Agree! RD among the great songwriters ;a brilliant, witty social satirist extraordinaire--and despite that remains, in my opinion, underrated compared with Dylan, L&M, J&R.

Beatles ha an edge with Arrangement & Recording - & Singing & style &tc. But that's exactly it : Ray Davies is not too much like Dylan, L&M, Townshend - but - is in that room.
