Dive Into Yesterday - the Kaleidoscope Special, Part 1

Monday June 8 at 6PM-10PM
Hosted by Pete Dixon and Earl Grey
KFJC rebroadcasts a special that originally aired on Mayhem 1, 2005 (see playlist). England's Kaleidoscope had their ups and downs in the late sixties, but never really achieved the success or recognition they deserved at the time. We interviewed Peter Daltrey, Eddy Pumer and Dan Bridgman from the band, who tell the fascinating story of their roller coaster ride through the sixties and early seventies. The special will be dedicated to their bassist Steve Clark, who sadly passed away six years before the special. Part 1 starts in 1963 with the R & B flavoured sounds of earlier band incarnations The Sidekicks and The Key, and follows their development into the psychedelic pop/rock of Kaleidoscope in 1967-68. The interviews will be interspersed with plenty of music from Kaleidoscope releases and some early Sidekicks demos.
