GillBilly YouTube Video: Dan Hicks & his Hot Licks 1972




Dan Hicks and the "classic" lineup of his Hot Licks - Sid Page (violin), John Girton (guitar), Jaime Leopold (bass) and Lickettes Maryann Price and Naomi Eisenberg! - performing "By Hook or by Crook" and "Shorty Falls in Love" - identified here as "Another Night". I would venture that this is perhaps a rehearsal for the Flip Wilson show of 9/28/1972 - of which there is a video here ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWZ8wjQE_bY - because the backdrop is the same. There is also "strange", misplaced laughter and applause, which might indicate that something else was going on at the same time.

One of the GillBilly's favorite bands.
