Gene Vincent, Mars 1965, Cavern Club Liverpool 

A true entertainer really could bring the house down. He has been largely forgotten.

Gene Vincent was a real pioneer of rock, along with his original recording band (legendary Cliff Gallup on guitar!) way back in 1956. Great band behind him at this club in a terrific show, apparently a decade later.

Great rocking band Gene has here… love the sax breaks! Gene was a terrific performer, I feel he’s been somewhat overlooked by many R&R historians!

Had football kick around in mathew St with backing group while waiting for the Cavern to open

GENE VINCENT FOREVERMORE PERIOD !

Gene avait du mérite, il souffrait terriblement de sa jambe inerte. Chouette de revoir Petula jeune, elle était jolie et avait aussi du talent.

So good to hear

Seriously good..

Pure raw talent something the music of today lacks , rock on forever gene

Superbes versions, quel talent !

Well hot and smoky. He is a mod and really owns this song. Shaking is pretty good too. Adds excitement to it. Thank you Gene again. No wonder he was so loved in the UK

comment le public peut il rester aussi statique ?....devant une bombe du rock qui explose sous leurs yeux ! fantastique GENE !!!!!

No faking.........this is real music !

Loved Gene Since his first hit in 1956 here in the USA

Wow, glad this was recorded!!

Beatles long gone, John's hero on same stage years later, magnificent!

Gene the greatest

Gene Vincent more classics. Always true to the music no matter what

Fantastic , pure live ,💖🎶🎶🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Far out. Live at the Cavern. He had performed with The Beatles a couple of years later. Amazing talent that died to young.

Brilliant.

There was only One Gene Vincent! never to be again there's no singer I know could do a Tribute Act that says it all Love you Gene God Bless you old Rocker you RIP I bet you and Eddie Cochran are letting rip in Heaven God Bless Both Love Nutty Nige xx

The Beatles played What'd I Say 8 hours straight in one night in the cavern in 1961 the audience fell asleep at the end

事故の後脚を庇いながらシャウトする彼も大好きです!!この時代日本にも来ましたね👍🎉

Astounding

Gegene ❤

What I like about this is how manic it is.

Awesome footage.

great footage. never seen this before.

It's all in the eyes, the eyes!

excellentissime !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool Video

¡Gene=Rock...!

Definitely an influence on the early Beatles.

yeah Mr Rock and Roll

That blond girl dancing at 3:30 I believe to be Petula Clark. 5 yrs earlier Gene was in that fatal accident that killed Eddie Cochran in the UK and 6 yrs later Gene would die at the age of 37.

The backing group was THE DYAKS, an English group.

pre there fame THE BEATLES BACKED GENE AT THE CARVERN CLUB.

I was at this party

And Petula Clark in the public. 🙏

Eddie Cochran kept Gene on a steady keel. Gene missed Eddie, following Eddie's death.

That Looks like Petula Clark at 03:30 enjoying it all.

Ray Vincent. Hot. Could be Sounds Incorporated backing. Very tight and driving sound.

The stage at the Cavern Club looked like an old bomb shelter or subway tunnel.

romania`te`salute.

do you have the full show? Other acts on this show were Gene Vincent, Gerry and the pacemakers, Manfred Mann, The Kinks, Sandie Shaw, Petula Clark and The Clayton Squares

Moving pretty fast, look behind Here come the devil doing 99

Vim parar aqui por influência do Raul Seixas , o máximo, agui é Brasil

je suis née le 15 mars 1965

Why does He keep looking At the Ceiling ? Bad Habit !

i stand corrected *BUT* it is written that he did consider hiring them as his backing group.that would have been when he had money .most of his gig promotors where theives in Europe.

Who's the backing group? Is it The Echoes?

Audience looked bored. But this was 1965 and he’s singing stuff from 1957. The audience was into The Beatles and the Kinks and the Stones.

The audience are like statues.

I would've love to see Petula Clark sing "I know a place" (in French) on this same occasion (1965-01-31) ; could you download it for me ? Thanks... J'aurais bien aimé voir Pétula Clark chanter "Viens avec moi" à cette même occasion (1965-01-31) ; pourriez-vous le mettre en ligne pour moi ? Merci...

Is that Petula Clark dancing at the front?

the beatles copied gene and started shaking their heads when singing

......probably, gene peeked at th gals, once in a while........

Sorry, but it looks like the audience is mostly not connecting with Sweet Gene. By 65, the Cavern crowd following The Beatles explosion had largely gone more Mod & were no longer fans of the Rocker/leather boy/greaser 50s style of Gene Vincent & others of the ilk. The filmmakers even had to insert clips of polite teens in seats applauding from some other situation or film clip -- not at The Cavern at all. Sad, because the very man who had inspired John Lennon and loved be The Beatles (and me!!!) was being virtually rejected by Beatles fans. The big change had happened, Beatlemania was peaking and Rockers like Gene Vincent were yesterday's news. 😢

ya petula clarck qui si croi un peu de trop . Gêne vincent est génial mais fin 69 70 et jusqu' à ça mort il connaître une carrière déclinante a force d alcool .

Drug induced goodness

Audience act like Muppets. Seen more life in a funeral home LOL

He looks like Moe from The Three Stooges.
