Eastside Flyers / Band Cards / Photos
The pages below contain scans of flyers promoting
dances and concerts in which my teenage bands
participated on the East Los Angeles circuit in the
1960s. We started as The Escorts in 1963, became
Mark & the Escorts in 1964, The Men From S.O.U.N.D.
in 1966, and Nineteen Eighty Four in 1969. The
most popular bands of the time are to be found on these
flyers which will give you an idea what the music scene
was like in East L.A.'s golden age. Many of the
artists I've written about in my articles on this
website can be found on these flyers. I was
able to pinpoint the years on the flyers that didn't
specify them by cross referencing gig calendars I had
from the era. According to the calendars, we played many
more gigs than these, but the following are the flyers I
acquired at the time and saved. At
the end of page 9, I added a few flyers from the early
70s when I was a solo artist and a member of Tango, who
recorded for A&M Records. Page 11 features
flyers I had saved from dances and shows in which my
bands did not perform. Starting on page 12,
are miscellaneous Eastside flyers that have
been sent to me by musicians of the period. On the
last "Eastside Flyers" page are scans of music charts
from Los Angeles top 40 radio station KRLA, during the
years of 1964-65. Many Chicano and Eastside
artists are on these charts.
Also, below you will find another set of pages with scans of band cards from the
East L.A. bands of the 1960s. I've removed any address or phone number
information for the privacy of current residents who may have the phone number
now. In some cases where the card was shiny or a
bright color, I had to lessen the color in order to make
the printing readable. Some cards have comments
below them. A third set of pages below have photos
and images of Eastside bands of the 60s. Photos of Cannibal & the
Headhunters, The Premiers, The Blendells, Ronnie & the Casuals, The Sisters, and
my 60s bands, Mark & the Escorts and The Men from S.O.U.N.D. can be found on the
main photo gallery. Click on "Photo Gallery" on the main menu of the
website to see those photos.
