“This is truly rare 8mm footage of Illinois garage rockers The Shadows Of Knight performing at the 1966 Teen World Fair in Chicago.
There is almost zero live footage of The Shadows Of Knight on the Internet. WTF? These are the guys that turned “Gloria” into a smash hit! So this is a nice piece of rock history.
60sgaragebands.com is compiling home movie footage of 1960’s garage/rock bands “in order to preserve the footage and offer it to collectors of garage rock from the 1960’s.”
Here’s a sample of some of the footage they’ve compiled so far. I love this stuff and can’t wait to see more. This was an era in which garages in suburbs across America were the breeding ground for the devil’s music and there was a rock band on every block.”
