The Swinging Blue Jeans were a four piece 1960s British Merseybeat band, best known for their hit singles with the HMV label; "Hippy Hippy Shake", "Good Golly Miss Molly", and "You're No Good". Subsequent singles released that year and the next made no impression. In 1966, their version of Burt Bacharach and Hal David's "Don't Make Me Over" peaked at #31 in the UK Singles Chart, but the group never charted again.[1]

[edit] Career

The group had its origins in 1956, when Bruce McCaskill formed a jazz influenced skiffle sextet group called the Blue Genes. The name was chosen by Spud Ward, because there was already a band called the Bluejeans backing Gene Vincent.

Their line-up included Bruce McCaskill on guitar and vocals, Arthur Griffiths on rhythm guitar, Kenneth Metcalf on lead vocals and guitar, Ken Metcalfe on washboard (who was later replaced by Norman Kuhlke), and Spud Ward on wooden oil drum bass. Ray Ennis joined from the Rhythm Rockers when Metcalf. Next came Tommy Hughes on banjo, with Ralph Ellis later joining on guitar, and Ward moved to Rory Storm's band, but came back playing double bass. Ward later joined Ralph Walters and the Dusty Road Ramblers, and Les Braid took over the bassist spot. Hughes and McCaskill left, the former for the Army and the latter over personal disagreements, replaced by John E. Carter and Paul Moss, respectively.

By 1962, they were working full-time and playing skiffle at venues in Liverpool and at the Star Club in Hamburg. However the German audiences booed them off the stage, and the group rapidly changed direction and focus.[2]

They switched to rock and roll, and with a name change to reflect their attire, to the Swinging Blue Jeans. This earned them a recording contract with HMV with record producer, Walter Ridley. With the departure of Moss soon after, they were left as a quartet comprising Ray Ennis (rhythm guitar, vocals), Les Braid (bass, keyboards), Ralph Ellis (lead guitar), and Norman Kuhlke (drums). Nevertheless, they made their recording debut as a quintet, with an Ennis penned original, "It's Too Late Now," which made the UK Top 40.[2]

The Swinging Blue Jeans performed on many popular TV shows in the United Kingdom and Europe, appearing with The Beatles, Gerry & The Pacemakers, The Searchers, and The Merseybeats. The Swinging Blue Jeans had the standard Shadows line-up of two guitars, a bass guitar and drums and achieved local fame with their appearances at the Mardi Gras Club and the Cavern Club. They had a three year spell of success, rising and falling with Merseybeat itself.[2]

An album Blue Jeans a' Swinging was released in 1964 by HMV; an contemporaneous American LP composed of 45 and EP tracks, Hippy Hippy Shake included the released-in-the-US-only instrumental, "Wasting Time".

Ralph Ellis who, with Ray Ennis was one of the two songwriters in the group, left in early 1966, and was succeeded by Terry Sylvester from The Escorts. Finding themselves trying to keep up with the rapidly changing times, the band recorded a second album at Abbey Road Studios in early 1966 which had a limited release in Canada.

The band drifted into a middle of the road direction which failed to bring them any success. In 1967, the band's producer Ridley decided to try and transform Ray Ennis into a solo star, cutting the disc "Tremblin'" with session musicians and backing vocals by Madeline Bell and Kiki Dee, but it was ultimately released under the band's name. Later that year another member from The Escorts - Mike Gregory joined the band making it a five piece line-up. Gregory played bass and Braid moved to the keyboards until 1972. Gregory left for family reasons and Braid reverted back to playing bass. In June 1968, a one off disc credited to 'Ray Ennis and The Blue Jeans' failed to bring any change in fortune, and Sylvester left at the end of 1968 to replace Graham Nash in The Hollies.

"Hey Mrs Housewife" was credited to The Blue Jeans in April 1969, after which they were dropped by EMI. The band then changed their name to Music Motor for a one off single on Deram, "Happy", after which they reverted back to The Swinging Blue Jeans name and the band eventually retired to the cabaret circuit.[2]

The Swinging Blue Jeans, continued with Ray Ennis and Les Braid until Braid's death in 2005. After fifty years as an active member, Ray Ennis announced he would retire after the band's tour which ended in Liverpool on 30 May 2010.

1969: Fohn Fennon-Ralph Ellis' The Swinging Blue Jeans on the soundtrack for this Greek movie made in the post 1967 CIA coup,
fascist dictatorship of Greece.

Remember all those weird, unexplained connections between the post 1966 Beatles and neo-fascist Greece, in particular Fennon and Yoko with "Magic Alex" Mardas, and the duo's trip to Greece in the late sixties.

Guy singing into the microphone at :08 looks like Charlie Brill.

The lead singer sounds remarkably like John Lennon in places.

He sounds like the "John Lennon" who is supposedly singing on this early Beatles hit song "Anna". The voice difference has been officially explained away as "John Lennon had a cold that day!"

Article by RAPLH ELLIS from 1964:

www.triumphpc.com/mersey-beat/archives/swingingbluejeans.shtml


From another website, they were the "Bluegenes" before becoming "The Swinging Blue Jeans" (BlueMean-ies?!) :

Line-up

Tommy Hughes: banjo (later formed "The Kansas City Five");
Bruce McCaskill: rhythm, vocal (later formed "The Kansas City Five");
Ralph Ellis : guitar, vocal;
Ray Ennis: guitar, vocal;
Norman Kuhlke: drums;
Les Braid: double bass.

Spring 1959 to April 1963


Still kings at the Cavern [Club], where their tuesday guest nights featured the likes of the Beatles, the Searchers, the Remo Four, Gerry & the Pacemakers, etc, etc, etc!


Began calling themselves the SWINGING BLUEGENES [genetics, wink wink] in 1960. Went to London and recorded two numbers with Joe Meek (7/62), which were never released. Were offered a management deal by Brian Epstein - but they saw him as a shopkeeper and signed with club-owner Jim Ireland.

Thanks for doing further research into the Ralph Ellis situation because I think there is a genuine link between this man and a Lennon replacement. This more than other considerations because of his background IN Liverpool as well as having a similar look and sound to that of the man we think of as Lennon.

IMHO I've come to the conclusion that there were several "Lennon's" throughout the entire era of Beatle-dom, and that includes the pre-fame "FAB" four...which comes to more than just 4....as I can see there have been at least two prefame Lennon's, one with the straight nose and the one that is more "beaked", and it's been throughout the span of what was considered Lennon's "life".

This Ralph Ellis piece fits into the setting, as when I researched the man, I could not find any material of his life after leaving the Blue Jeans...it's as if he dropped off the earth at 1966, which fits into our ideas that as taking on the Lennon image, he had to leave his old life and name behind.

The link to them being in Hamburg is interesting as well. What was in "Hamburg" that made the bands or broke them?

Interesting how this has been played out....

Hamburg= West Germany's "former" Nazi scientists.... The world's top experts in disguise techniques and mass media fraud.

"There's Nazis in the bathroom, just below the stairs (stares)":

[lucy]

Indeed Nazi mind control. And they all did NOT stay in Germany, some were taken into Great Britain, and some came to the US and formed such things that morphed into what we call the CIA....and other such entities.

There are folks who may have believed Paul was replaced, but they don't want to face the reality that the "Beatles" was not the genius people that we have been bombarded to believe. Not saying that there was not a basic talent in them at that young time, but they were not the great musicians and songwriters BEFORE Germany. And the story of them performing in sleazy dumps 8 hours a night was NOT how they became the polished performers.

Another thing to point out, the Beatles were clearly the ones who stood above the rest, these other performers never were developed to be the outstanding performers as the Beatles were polished to be. I don't think most of the other "Liverpool" acts had the extensive mind control that the Beatles had. IMO.

I'm thinking that testing dopplegangers, and getting look a like, sound a like players were also taking place in Germany. That would explain why those early pictures of the "Beatles" show different looking Paul's and John's. We've seen pics here that show different noses on "John" before fame. So this replacement BEFORE fame was being implemented at that period...for sure.

We have also seen pics of today's "stars" being replaced before fame. It would be difficult to examine pics of stars of years gone by to examine as the people we see now, because access to childhood pics of those older stars are more difficult to find.
But this is something to be considered for those who are new to this research and material. That celebs are predestined for fame because they are born into certain families.

I repeat myself, and those who are regulars here, please bear with me, but for truth seekers who are fairly new at the realization of celebrity replacements, that military and political and "acting" families breed future stars, we have seen that much of the 60's music was birthed from the Laurel Canyon scene. Many of which came from military backgrounds...

It's quite alarming that the celebs we see and are told the "story" of this talented child, most likely programmed to be such...

[beatlies]

Ralph Ellis was an eerie look-alike of John Lennon, and he also sounds like John Lennon in places, and he sounds like Paul McCartney in other places! He could have mimicked both voices. Listen carefully:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPSAz3a7nuU&playnext=1&list=AL94UKMTqg-9BTto78OHZwiugFKFFtS_ZB




And Ralph Ellis' Liverpool/Hamburg group the Blue Genes/Swinging Blue Jeans preceded the Beatles in getting record contracts and popularity.

The Ralph Ellis abruptly retired completely from show biz to take up a new life, we are told, as an insurance salesman.

"You really should consider this policy ma'am....what, who me? No I'm not John Lennon, nor am I related to him. True, I used to be a rich and famous international rock 'n roll star and an acclaimed song writer, but I just had to let it all go to sell this thrilling insurance deal."

Did Ralph Ellis moonlight in The Pepperpots? Enquiring minds wanna know!

Hurricane Sandy Benefit Relief Concert for Misquamicut Beach, RI

News No Responses ».

Dec 032012
.
WESTERLY, Rhode Island – There will be a second “ Bash for the Beach” Concert to raise funds for businesses hit hardest by Hurricane Sandy on the shoreline of Misquamicut Beach.

Bash for the Beach II will be hosted by the Misquamicut Business Association, this Friday, December 7th from 7 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. The list of live popular local and area bands to perform this date include: Equinox, Funk Bucket, Stiff Kitty, Never Enuff, Hope Road and The Beach Band, all which are regulars on the Misquamicut Beach music scene.

This event date will also feature Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Terry Sylvester of “The Hollies”, best known for the hit’s “He Ain’t Heavy He’s My Brother”, “Long Cool Woman in Black Dress.”

Terry Sylvester of The Hollies- Terry Sylvester rocked Misquamicut Beach with Hollies classics each summer since 2008! Terry Sylvester was born in Liverpool, England and lived in the next road to Paul & Mike McCartney. He left school just before his 15th birthday and worked for one year as an apprentice panel beater for Peter Harrison, (George Harrison’s older brother). At 16 he turned pro, & was sharing the stage with the Beatles regularly in and around Liverpool and at the world famous Cavern Club, fronting his own group the Escorts. When the Beatles appeared at the Cavern for the last time on the 3rd August 1963, Terry & the Escorts were invited by the Beatles to be on the same bill.

In August 1965, the Escorts were appearing with the Hollies at the ‘Hit House Club’ in Munich Germany. When a couple of members of the Escorts were taken ill before the show, Graham Nash & Allan Clarke from the Hollies graciously filled in for them, and performed with Terry for the first time. In January 1966 when guitarist Ralph Ellis decided to leave the Swinging Blue Jeans, the then 18 year old Terry was asked to join the group.

The Swinging Blue Jeans had a number of hit records including ‘Hippy Hippy Shake’, ‘Good Golly Miss Molly’ & ‘You’re No Good’. From 1966 to 1969 Terry toured the UK and Europe continuously, and appeared on numerous TV and radio shows. In 1968 when they were touring Czechoslovakia, a lucky tip from a high ranking fan enabled them to leave the country the day before Russia invaded.

In December 1968, Graham Nash left the Hollies to form Crosby, Stills, & Nash. The remaining members of the Hollies remembered Terry from Munich [Nazi Mecca city, incidentally, and major CIA base and CIA radio propaganda broadcasting HQ], contact was made & the rest, as they say is history. Terry’s first single with the Hollies ‘Sorry Suzanne’ reached number 3 in the UK charts and established the group once again as a top ten hit making act. Terry’s first album ‘Hollies Sing Dylan’ went even further, all the way to number 1. Soon after they recorded ‘He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother’, with the then unknown session man Elton John playing piano. More hits followed including the follow up single ‘I Can’t Tell The Bottom From The Top’, U.S. number 1 ‘Long Cool Woman, In A Black Dress’, ‘Long Dark Road’, ‘Gasoline Ally Bred’, and the 1974 universal classic love song, ‘The Air That I Breathe’.

Terry has been awarded 5 Platinum, 9 Gold, and 6 Silver Discs so far in his career. He continues to write and to tour, wowing audiences with all of the hits!

Hits include “Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress,” “Air That I Breathe,” “Carrie-Ann,” “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother”

Admission/donation will be $15 per person and a cash bar will be provided for the event date. The Knickerbocker is well known for hosting local and national live bands.

"Yoko Ono picks up human rights prize in Berlin

Yoko Ono on Friday accepted a German human rights prize for peace activism with her late husband, Beatle John Lennon, as well as her more recent work championing equality for women and gays.

Ono, who will turn 80 in February, picked up the Rainer Hildebrandt Medal at Berlin's Checkpoint Charlie Museum next to the former Cold War border crossing.

Wearing a black top hat and trouser suit, she gave a two-fingered peace sign as she thanked the jury.

"I'm very honoured to get this award and I will consider this award as an encouragement to do more work in humanitarian causes," she said.

Hildebrandt, who died in 2004, founded the museum to document daring attempts by East Germans living under communism to escape over the Berlin Wall and in protest against the regime's shoot-to-kill policies.

His widow Alexandra handed Ono the prize, which was selected by a jury she said included German President Joachim Gauck, former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger and former German foreign minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher.

"Since the early days of her career, and in addition to her music and conceptual art, Yoko Ono has always drawn attention for her political statements and her fight for peace and human rights," the jury said.

"She is a great proponent of gender equality, and is committed to world peace and the recognition of same-sex partnerships."

Previous winners include jailed Kremlin critic Mikhail Khodorkovsky and assassinated Israeli prime minister Yitzhak Rabin.

The Tokyo-born artist -- raised in both Japan and the United States in a well-off family of bankers -- became a global icon when she married the rocker from Liverpool.

Since her Montreal honeymoon with Lennon, during which the couple called for peace from their marital bed, Ono has used her celebrity to raise awareness for causes.

In 2002, she launched the "LennonOno" grant for peace in Iceland, given every two years.

In honour of Ono's 80th birthday, the Schirn Kunsthalle in the western German city of Frankfurt will present a retrospective of her work from February."

Amazing. I've never even heard of Ralph Ellis or The Swinging Blue Jeans.

Thats why I always mistook Swinging Blue Jeans' Hippy Hippy Shake with Beatles's.... Ralph Ellis, as I said too, was definitely another Fennon at some point....

I remember the song when I was a kid, but i didn't see them. But I thought a Beatle sound a like
No wonder
