A slight shift in topic…

Does anybody remember the “Riviera Lounge” in Younkes. I think it was on Mclean Ave. down neer the Bronx River or maybe it was on Yonkers Ave.

And the summer-circuit in Cape Cod,,Dennisport and Harwich.
East coast version of ‘Country Joe McDonald and the Fish’.

Dino,
Had to add this.
Travelling through Northwestern Connecticut, I heard Dover Drag Strip mentioned more than a few times on a Albany-based 60’s-Rock college radio station.
They had a call-in segment; ‘Where were you in 69’
Several mentioned Dover Drag Strip, and the Gassers.
But the classic caller question; ‘Are those Dover racers still alive’ 😆
Paul,,Still here 😛

WHAT ! I’ll search That Imediatly …College stations usually don’t have a lot of Power …But Maybe Brian Knows ?

DINO ON THE FM DIAL,
It was low on the dial, I think either the RPI college station 91.5 or
maybe 89.7. Picked it up when I hit Canaan (Northwest Border at Massachussetts).
My ears perked up, when I heard ‘Mean Mistreater’ by Grand Funk.
Where were you in 69′
Thought I’d hear a bunch of Woodstock stories, but actually more about Dover and Lebanon Valley. Lots of 55/56/57 Gassers from that area.
One guy mentioned he passed up Woodstock, to see a new English band ‘Led Zeppelin’ at the Aerodome ‘an old bowling alley’, in Schenectady.
Learn something everyday.
