This Week's
"DEEP DIVE"
REVOLUTION!
Today "the shot heard 'round the world" kicked off the American Revolution, and since all the action started in Massachusetts, Mark will be playing two hours of the best American music that's connected to that state.
STEPPIN' OUT - Even in Revolutionary times, serving in the army could wreak havoc on a soldier's love life. Here's Mark singing it LIVE to the pre-recorded track on Hullabaloo on November 29, 1965.

THE FOUR FRESHMEN -> BEACH BOYS - Mark told the story of how Brian Wilson's purchase of a Four Freshman album (5 Trombones) influenced the four part harmony "Beach Boys sound." He played a live version of GRADUATION DAY (originally by The Four Freshmen) from a 1967 Beach Boys concert in Boston, and then followed it with the Four Freshmen and OLD CAPE COD....which sounds remarkably like The Beach Boys.
Below:
The Beach Boys - Graduation Day (Live in Sacramento 1964)
The Four Freshmen - Old Cape Cod
The Beach Boys - Surfer Girl

ULTIMATE SPINACH - Mark played DOVE IN HAWK'S CLOTHING to open the sixth set. Take a listen to the entire album full of psychedelia....

FREDDY CANNON and THE G-CLEFS - Mark played both of these Boston artists, and told the story of the connection between them. That's Freddy playing lead guitar on KA-DING DONG.

BRUCE JOHNSTON - Mark played Bruce's song DISNEY GIRLS (1957) to close the final set. In it, he opines for the kinder, simpler days, like when Patti Page (and later The Four Freshmen) sang about Old Cape Cod. This is a live 1975 performance from the British show, The Old Gray Whistle Test.

NEWSFLASH:
Mark lived on the island of Maui for 8 years, and - ever the wanderer - has purchased a new place in Hawaii and decided to move back there very soon...potentially as early as this August, to as late as January. (The timing depends on extensive dental work for his cat Six which, due to his heart condition, can only be done at a few veterinary universities in the US, and he's waiting for an appointment.)
What does this mean? Mark is parting with nearly ALL of his memorabilia with the exception of his gold Raider/solo albums and 2 guitars. He's not going to take up half a ocean container to take it with him, nor to rent climate-controlled space to protect his collection from the ravages of salt and humidity as he did when he lived on Maui. Nor does it make sense to leave it all boxed up forever.
So...he's putting together a large memorabilia sale at a prestigious celebrity auction house very soon. That most special memorabilia will need to be packed up by the last week of April to be delivered to the auction house. It will include his Doris Day desk that started out as his writing desk at Cielo Drive, his saxes, a guitar, other gear, stage or TV-worn apparel, and much more.
And...after the move, the store will be very limited in size, with just a few autographed CDs and possibly photos, and he will not do personalizations or phone calls after that. If you want to be sure of having memorabilia with an autograph personalized to YOU, please try to get it very very soon. Ditto for any apparel or rare memorabilia on the website, since that will definitely be pulled to go to the auction. BTW the auction pieces will have a reserve price of the current store price.
We're adding lots more personally autographed goodies every day to
Mark Lindsay's Music & Memorabilia Shop, so be sure to stop by SOON for your last chance to add to your collection.
