Kit Griffiths The first song you performed in public? (64* d) RE: The first song you performed in public? 17 Jan 11


Summer 1966, St John's Church Hall, Sevenoaks -my friend George Bowser (now half of Bowser and Blue)and I (both aged 17)did three songs: "Greenback Dollar", "Rain" and "Hold Tight" (the last one purely because I had been given a fuzz-box for my birthday). "Greenback Dollar" was first. There were two nuns in the front row. We sang the "censored" chorus ("And I don't give a (pause) about a Greenback Dollar"), and each time the nuns winced. For the last (repeat) chorus, we sang "...don't give a damn...". The nuns crossed themselves, and walked out.
