Roky Erickson from 13th Floor elevators! I've read somewhere that they met in a mental asylum.. The thin line between crazy and genius just vanished :)

@bonzeblayk Exactly as I pictured, that must have been a great show! ...and thanks so much for the compliment.

@PurpleGardenWalls NB: ... the knife was pretty much a garden variety stainless steel table knife, if I recall correctly :-)

PurpleGardenWalls

@bonzeblayk Hey thanks for the info. Wow! A knife!? That is incredible.

bonzeblayk

... and oh, very nice video! thanks! bonzie

That would be Steven Morgan Burgess on bass; a helluva nice guy, and the ONLY bass guitarist I have ever seen break a string... :-) And on drums, that might be Fuzzy Furioso rather than Jeff Sutton; one can't tell from the credits on the original release... Seeing these folks live was quite an experience; for one, the atmospherics contributed by Billy Angel (nee Miller) on electric autoharp (played with a knife!) should not be underestimated... it's clear here, but sounds a bit like a guitar!
