From NME 30 April 1965.... "The Everlys and Barron Knights switched to May 6, when they will appear with Marianne Faithfull. Replacing them in next Tuesday's show (4th) are The Silkie, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers and Maxine Darren."

The Kal show in Birmingham on 3.3.2018 "Not seen on TV" had an edition of The Musical Box that was the "Back-up" show only to be transmitted if the current day's one could not be broadcast live for any reason had Pussycat Willum in it so one performance survives.

Hereâs a review by Marjorie Norris of the edition of âFive OâClock Clubâ broadcast on 20 March 1964. It was published in âThe Stageâ (26 March 1964).
Five OâClock Club
A-R, March 20. In its present form, Five OâClock Club, reminds me a little of old-style childrenâs comics. Thereâs a corner for the tinies, with glove puppets Ollie Beak and Fred Barker, Uncle Jimmy Hanley describes some ghastly object you can make out of eggboxes, Auntie Muriel has a little chat, and thereâs a fairly simple competition. Just where the musical items fall into place in this context Iâm not quite sure, except that you canât keep pop singers out of anything these days.
Its impact on its intended audience can perhaps be judged by watching the expressions of the children in the live audience. They had a ball when ever there was something they could join in, like the dancing and community singing, and everybody loved Ollie and Fred and that delicious pantomime cow Daisy. So did I.
The cameras didnât show us the audience during the musical numbers, but when we came back to them I thought they looked a little restless. Did they resent not being able to get close to the artists like their elders in Ready Steady Go? Muriel Young and Howard Williams make ideal hosts. They donât talk down, and they have a cheerful brisk manner. Joy Marshall, a singer with a voice as nicely rounded as her figure, looked just a little inhibited by having to sing a sexy song to such a young audience. Gene Vincent had trouble with his miming in a song that was not up to Gene Vincent standard. The Federals are a lively group who deserve to be successful.
Of course, it was the audience who stole the show for any adult looking in. There were no coy side-glances at the camera from this gang! The frank grins and grimaces of these kids as they looked straight into the lens (Did you see me, Mum?) were as good as a tonic. That boy who stuck his tongue out really won my heart. Up the rebels!
Joy Marshall, the jazz and soul singer, must have been a last-minute guest, because her name doesnât appear in any of the listings Iâve seen for this episode. Apparently, the song that Gene Vincent mimed (badly) to was âHumpty Dumptyâ.

If Rediffusion had been your TV station you will probably recall that Muriel Young was also a continuity announcer/link woman there..always acting as if she had just been tickled- great fun lovely girl...Here she is with Ollie Beak and Fred Barker and another bloke...TV that was alive with real humans what a great concept eh?

The Kinks appeared on âFive OâClock Clubâ on 10 December 1965. They probably performed âTill The End Of The Dayâ. Ray Davies was interviewed, and he spoke very openly about his misgivings about the music business.
A portion of this interview was quoted on page 252 of Johnny Roganâs book âRay Davies: A Complicated Lifeâ. Does this mean that an audio recording exists? Has it ever appeared on Kinks bootlegs?

Doug Hinman's book "All Day and All of the Night" notes that the Kinks lip-synced 'Till the End of the Day' and 'Milk Cow Blues'

I don't think so. Far more likely is a report in something like the N.M.E. which reacted to the show a week later.

Slightly off topic but it's been really great to hear the Kinks's Deadend Street in true stereo at last. I thought the stereo master was lost/misplaced. I guess it's recently been found

I don't think so. Far more likely is a report in something like the N.M.E. which reacted to the show a week later. I had another look at Johnny Roganâs biography of Ray Davies. According to the Notes section at the back of the book, the âFive OâClock Clubâ interview was quoted in an article by Keith Altham in the NME, 24 December 1965. I found Althamâs article on the Rockâs Backpages website. Itâs called âNew Sounding Kinksâ. However, it doesnât contain any quotes from the television interview. I don't know if Rogan made an error with his notes. It's possible that the website contains a shortened version of the NME article.
