MONDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO: “Hold On” by Rupert’s People https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYbrxbXH5bs. Rupert’s People was a “made in the studio” band formed around members of Fleur de Lys. In 1967, Rod Lynton was a rising songwriter, so managers and record companies got behind him to record his songs by using bands-for-hire—in this case it was Fleur de Lys with Chris Andrews on lead vocals. To avoid confusion over the Fleur de Lys “brand,” the band re-named themselves “Rupert’s People” to avoid confusion. “Hold On” was the B-side to the Rupert’s People “Reflections on Charles Brown,” a single issued to positive response in 10 countries. However, many said “Hold On” is the stronger track, amped up with muscular organ by Pete Solley (future sideman w/Eric Clapton, Al Stewart, Whitesnake, etc.) and edgy lead guitar by Phil Sawyer. The song was co-written with bassist Gordon Haskell (later of “Harry’s Bar” and King Crimson) and guitar hero Bryn Haworth (not credited on the record label). On a cosmic jukebox “Hold On” plays next to the soulful hard-edged blues-rock fusions of Spencer Davis Group, Pretty Things, and Brian Auger & The Trinity.
Lynton went on to collaborate with John Lennon, and Rupert’s People tracks have been reissued on soundtracks and compilations celebrating the best of 60s British rock. Fleur de Lys became a launching pad for several careers, with Chris Andrews going on as a solo act and collaborator with Roger Daltrey, David Essex, Davy Jones (Monkees), and other notables. This video was made in 2023 with remastered audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYbrxbXH5bs

Julie Driscoll & Brian Auger: “Light My Fire” German 7″ (1968, 1978)
Having Organized Konfusion’s “Why?” (’94) on repeat recently had me dying to find the original sample. Those streets led me to Driscoll & Auger’s slow-brew take on The Door’s “Light My Fire”. Auger’s keys does it real nice for the previously mentioned which was originally released on Stress: The Extinction Agenda. I’d say that Free Design’s cover of The Doors’ hit is also heard to be believed, and so far for me personally it’s three-for-three.
Of all pressings, Germany is the only one with an actual sleeve; part of the Polydor label’s 2 Super Oldies sub-imprint.
