Today is the 46th anniversary of the opening of the world famous Whisky A Go Go on the fabulous Sunset Strip!
"Johnny Rivers…returned to L.A. to accept a lucrative offer from Elmer Valentine to open at his lavish new nightclub based upon the popular European discotheque concept. Johnny Rivers at the Whisky A Go-Go turned Hollywood upside down. His first Imperial album, "Johnny Rivers At The Whisky A Go-Go," (produced by Lou Adler) was high in the charts for 45 weeks in 1964."

Picture it...
kabuki and Mistress MJ in twist fringe and go-go boots, high above the dance floor, shaking it, not afraid of breaking it.
Dig?
i'll be there, just let me throw on my window pane stockings...
My mother used to have this record. She would like it back - FELIX. Children please note: A record is like a big CD, only with less music. This was offset by a much better quality of musician. Good hearing is just wasted on the young. kabuki
I got my shimmy box stuck on high and I am ready to go, baby go.
Peenee: I thought your shimmy box was rusted out.
