Agree w/much of what you have to say. 1M $ weekend was a complete waste of the $5.00 it cost way back in 67 when it was released. That one had NO original toons by the boys was just 1 of it's problems.
Their biggest selling LP, Telstar, I didn't like much either.
It's unfortunate that Rarity Records (the company that released Nokie Edwards Live at the Sunhouse) is now gone, as that's a great DVD. There's a studio CD of him with Adventure, also worth having.
Our band has several CD and DVD that we recorded with Nokie in our basement studio that we've never released.
We prefer not to play WDR, Apache, Pipeline, etc.
