DER FALL X701 (Frozen Alive) Eric Spear - "Fire Dancin" (1964)

Well, this is Post # 131, and that's 13 just about any way you look at it, backwards, forwards, upside down, and it seems like that's about as good a place as any to take a break for awhile. Maybe a week or two, maybe until Reverend Frost comes back, we'll just have to see what happens, but there's still lots more music to showcase, so don't worry, we plan on finishing this project. If we go obscure enough, and push the boundaries of what a "Monster" movie is, then we might even come up with 131 more, but for now, Eegah! & Tabonga both need to hibernate a bit! "Frozen Alive" seems very appropriate at this point, and here's the voodoo club scene, fire dancing segment. Legend has it around here that Jimi Hendrix probably saw this movie all stoned out maybe 2 or 3 years before his Monterey performance, and that's where he got the idea to set his guitar on fire like that. If you get a copy of the movie, you can see the performer get down on his knees & start the fire in front of himself, just like Jimi would later do. Now why the "Experience" didn't dress like the band in this club is anybody's guess. Too bad, because if they had, then we would have proof certain. Later!!!
