This Week's
"DEEP DIVE"
ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME
Guaranteed to start fights on Facebook as to its validity and choices, the Rock Hall just announced its 2025 inductees. Mark will be playing two hours of the best American music that honors Performers, Non-Performers, Musical Influences, and Singles that were inducted from inception in 1986 through 2025.
CHUBBY CHECKER AND THE TWIST - Probably no other artist self-promoted more for induction than Chubby, even staging a "protest" outside the induction event one year. Chubby was FINALLY inducted in the Class of 2025, and in the Singles category, Chubby's 1960 version of THE TWIST was honored in 2018. The original 1958 version by its songwriter Hank Ballard and The Midnighters is the second video below.

ALICE COOPER- Mark opened the fourth set with a track called BLACK MAMBA from the upcoming Alice Cooper album. Alice (and the band) were inducted into The Rock Hall in 2011 - and introduced by who else but...Rob Zombie.

ALAN FREED - In between the fourth and fifth sets, Mark told the story of the 1958 riot at the Big Beat rock and roll show that Alan brought to the Boston Garden. Alan was charged with anarchy, and although he beat the charges, after the payola scandal hit the next year, his career was over. He was the first Non-Performer to be inducted into the Rock Hall (1986) (more HERE), but then, in 2014....watch the video below

THE BYRDS - They were in the Rock Hall Class of 1991, and Mark played Eight Miles High to close the sixth set. Here they are on American Bandstand performing the song. It was Crosby's last TV performance before he was fired.

WARREN ZEVON - Warren was inducted as a Musical Influence this year, and Mark closed the show today with WEREWOLVES OF LONDON.

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.
