Terry Dactyl and the Dinosaurs - 'On a Saturday Night' descargar videos gratis

'On a Saturday Night' shows a line-up for Terry Dactyl and the Dinosaurs (AKA Brett Marvin and the Thunderbolts) that was not usual. Jona Lewie (singing) is the only original Terry Dactyl member to have taken part in this 1973 broadcast for the German TV show 'Hits A GoGo.'

After the recording of 'On a Saturday Night' guitarist Graham Hine left Terry Dactyl / Brett Marvin; Jona Lewie (John Lewis) was soon to leave too.

The mandolin player here is Tim Branston. As Terry Dactyl's Keef Trouble and John Randall didn't make it to Germany, it was Jona Lewie who fronted this song with the members of Tim Branston's own band, 'The Jawbone Jug Band.'

Tim tells the story of how they were met at the airport by a limo complete with young ladies, provided by the studio. Apparently the rehearsal for this broadcast produced a better performance, the silly dance being suggested by the studio director. Unfortunately, copious amounts of alcohol were available.

Terry Dactyl and the Dinosaurs was the 'popular' name given to 'Brett Marvin and the Thunderbolts' for promotional purpose. Jona Lewie was a Brett Marvin vocalist, and their keyboard player, later replaced by Taffy Davies from The Jawbone Jug Band. Graham Hine eventually rejoined Brett Marvin, and the line up remains as it was, including:

Graham Hine: guitar/vocals

Pete Gibson: percussion/vocals

Taffy Davies: keyboard/vocals

Keef Trouble: percussion/guitar/vocals

Jim Pitts: harmonica/sax/vocals

John Randall: percussion

Brett Marvin and the Thunderbolts, playing for 40 years, is one of the longest still-performing blues outfits with original line-up.
