HAPPENING
The
judge in the Beatles’ court case decides in Paul McCartney’s favour.
Meanwhile, the press run headlines that the Beatles will reform with Klaus
Voorman replacing McCartney on bass. McCartney is also involved in yet
another dispute, this time with publishers Northern Songs over his latest
hit single “Another Day”. The song has been co-credited to both
McCartney and his wife Linda, thereby reducing the amount of earnings due to
Northern songs by 50%. Northern Songs Chairman Jack Gill insists that Linda
is not capable of composing such music and threatens court action.
Junior
Campbell quits Marmalade. He aims to further his musical studies before
embarking on a solo career. Hughie Nicholson (ex-Poets) is replacement.
There
is controversy at Top Of The Pops when Yes allege that the show’s
producers have turned them down for the coveted ‘album’ spot.
Peter
Green stands in for the missing Jeremy Spencer on Fleetwood Mac’s US Tour.
Quintessence
are banned from future appearances at Bristol’s Colston Hall following
their concert this month. The venue’s management objected to the group
handing out burning joss sticks to the audience, constituting a ‘fire
risk’.
Carol
Grimes splits from Delivery to form her own group.
Ex-Jethro
Tull bass player Glen Cornick announces the formation of his new group, Wild
Turkey, which includes Gary Pickford-Hopkins and John Weathers from Swansea
psych-group Eyes Of Blue.
Ex-Fat Mattress bassist replaces Keith Ellis in Juicy Lucy.
Kinks
leader Ray Davies is ordered to slow down and take a month off by his
medical advisors. Davies apparently has “four writing projects on the
go” plus recording and live concert commitments.
Ten Years After deny that they are breaking up.
Rikki Farr and Ron Foulk announce that they are planning another Isle Of Wight Festival, to be held near Cowes, but this time it was to be a smaller event than the controversial 1970 debacle. In fact the authorities refused to grant permission for a 1971 Festival.
Radio
Monte Carlo, the commercial Progressive Rock radio station, closes down its
English broadcasts. The station, featuring well-known DJs such as Kenny
Everett, Tommy Vance and Dave Cash, blamed ‘considerable reception
interference’ and ‘economic instability’ for the closure.
