GUEST,Ed The Second Fret (Philadelphia)...memories wanted (39) RE: The Second Fret (Philadelphia)...memories wanted 11 Feb 22


While rehearsing for a hopeful/eventual recording today, something reminded me of The Second Fret. So I searched for "The Second Fret". While I was in high school in the late 60's, I had the good fortune to be able to travel downtown via The Reading Railroad line (SEPTA)to hear the great music of the day. Those of us who are old enough to remember, could hear/see big time acts, and more important very talented local acts, for the price that a high-school part-time grunt worker could earn. I remember Mandrake Memorial at the Second Fret. Mandrake was my favorite local act. I still have their 3 vinyl recordings. Anyway, in addition to "The Trauma", "The Factory" and "The Main Point" on the main line, "The Second Fret" was one of my favorite hang outs. Those were the days!

Great Memories!!
