  • Off The Record Offtimes As Such set list 1967-68 2024
    Sep 9 2024

    Join music historian, author and musician John Einarson on a nostalgic trip back in time to the songs his band Offtimes As Such played in 1967 to 1968. They didn't change the world nor ever record but the band was ahead of their contemporaries playing hard rock and psychedelic music. They even had a light show. John shares stories about their teenage adventures (including bleeding fingers and electric walls) and plays some of the songs the band covered by artists such as Cream, Moby Grape, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Ugly Ducklings, The Yardbirds, Them, The Spencer Davis Group, and The Who. It's a fun hour of great music.
