I am slipping this in because it has been in my queue for a long while. I am curious if it has staying power. This was taped single camera by me and Howard Lamden on a warm day in June of 1975 at Trod Nossel Studios in Wallingford, Connecticut for a live broadcast. There was a studio audience on the floor and I believe it went out live on WPLR 99.1 FM in New Haven. We were called in for free by Dick Kalt marketing executive at WPLR who a friend, Michael Smith, not sure but may have contacted. The Beau Brummels had re-formed in 1974 with the five member original line up. They had released a self titled studio album on Warner Brothers in April 1975 with original member Ron Meagher who left during production. On this tour appearance he was replaced by Daniel Levitt. I shot the main camera and Howard shot cutaways on another 1/2” reel to reel some of which may be in this edit. Audio was a feed from the mixing board and maybe mono on this tape. Laugh, Laugh, was from their first album written by Ron Elliott. We taped ten songs most of them from the 1975 album. Limitations of single camera and video audio glitches are evident.
