Saturday Matinee – Wendy Saddington & Copperwine, Dutch Tilders & The Blues Club, and The Lachy Doley Group

Wendy Saddington with Jeff St. John & Copperwine ca. 1971. From the Utoobage comments: “I dislike it when people say that she was ‘Australia’s Janis’ or ‘Australia’s Aretha’ – she was Wendy, a one of a kind and no imitation of an imported product.”

Matthew ‘Dutch’ Tilders, dubbed the Godfather of Australian Blues, was born in the Netherlands in 1941. His family moved to Oz in 1955 when he was 14, just in time for the rock and roll era and the resurgence of American blues. Self-taught on guitar, by 1960 he was playing original songs in the local coffee houses.

Lachy Doley channels Jimi Hendrix on his Hammond C3.

All Australian blues for this edition of the Saturday Matinee [h/t Archie]. It’s a mystery to me why these musicians got so little exposure in the US.

Time is getting compressed and the days are speeding past again, at least for me. Have a great weekend – we have some serious porch sitting to do tomorrow.

[Found here, here and I messed with Joliet Jake’s mugshots just because.]

More about the top one: From Mexican surrealist producer Luis Buñuel’s film Simón del Desierto (1965), the final scene in a nightclub (Café Milleti). Saint Simon Stylites is present, and so is the Devil. St. Simon asks “her” for the name of the dance, and the Devil replies, “Radioactive Flesh.”
The band is Los Sinners. [Scene starts at 41:18.]

After posting the photograph to Facebook, Scott Taylor was amazed by the attention the image received. “I am from a town of 960 people where everyone knows pretty much everyone, so to receive the amount of attention that I received was absolutely crazy to me. People from all over the world started contacting me.”
