OMG....I can't believe this was in my was a FANNY fan back in the early 70s, I still have the vinyl copy of the album ROCK AND ROLL SURVIVORS. These gals could play and sing. Amazing talented women who should have gotten way more recognition! They are great!!!!

[denniseldridge]

This band definitely needs to be brought back to the public consciousness. They are absolutely fantastic, incredibly talented all round, and of course truly groundbreaking. There are bands today that follow directly in Fanny's footsteps like The Warning, Band Maid, Voice of Baceprot (Indonesia) and many, many others. This particular performance is particularly good as well; we're lucky such great footage is with us and preserved for all to see. I know it will inspire more modern-day women to keep rocking!

As an aside, I'd love for the super-talented, 14-year-old drummer Yoyoka to see this as she makes her way in the US music industry.

I'm told that none other than David Bowie was a fan of Fanny!

[mannybravo]

Street tough, sweaty set! That's RocknRoll, , , Fanny, the grandmothers of rock, deserving their place in the music tree!

[blackstonepros]

That bass solo at 7:58! Uncommonly excellent. Just an epic choice and execution of sound. This band deserves hall of fame recognition.

I'm so glad I happened on this channel. I remember seeing Fanny live back in 1971 or 1972 and loved them. They are the real progenitors of the female rock band. I follow a LOT of Japanese music now and they have cornered the market on great female bands, Band Maid, SCANDAL, Lovebites, Nemohila, Aldious and about a dozen more. And a relatively new group from South Korea named Rolling Quartz, who are sheer fire. I'm sure then ladies would be very happy with the resurgence of female bands.

I'm sure that I saw this in '74, but it's as good as new now! I always loved this band. "Walked the Earth" assists me many nights in the kitchen these days.

[mtemple]

whoo, I took me a hot moment to realize that Suzie replaced June. The face and hair said it wasn't June, but the guitar work kept saying "FANNY".
I remember watching the Midnight Special performance. God, I love women who rock, such a different vibe from the male egos. Thank you for all your music.

I planned to see Fanny, at the Whisky gig, New Year's Eve weekend, 1972. I had a relationship issue come out of the blue, so I didn't go back to LA for New Year's, finished the project I was working on sooner, ended up missing 'em in Long Beach, and never got another chance. Life, they said. I always thought they needed a better producer. The women had the chops, the songs were good skeletons, with some excellent musical flourishes, trimmed just right in the studio, they coulda been contenders!

It was always harder for girl bands. Women are used to standing around looking pretty, thanks to leches everywhere, so it's harder for them to pose in not-pretty, but that "j' ne sais quois" quality of aloof neediness rock 'n' roll stars of the period were projecting. The Rod Stewart look, basically. It was tough for the woman of fanny to project tough, compared to any male band with half their skill and talent. Joan Jett would do it, after surviving the Runaways, and Pat Benatar, with the help of soul-mate Neil Giraldo, but it was an uphill struggle, for air-time on the radio, and stage time on tours. Pioneers left ruts the rest of us stumble over without giving thought to how easy their sacrifice made it for us.

[revenantband]

I first saw them in 1970. My band had just finished a gig and a friend took me to see them in Cleveland. They were absolutely mindblowing!

[simonpanter]

I grew up in the 70's and never heard of them? I just watched a great documentary on Kansas. Kirshner was the $ behind them and was very patient. He believed in them for good reason.

Fanny is really good!

[robertfmorton]

Brilliant!!!! Shades of Vanilla Fudge and Cream but always FANNY!!!!

[RapIsDeadly]

Never ever even heard of this band....and I was a rock and roller since the late 60's. Female groups have evolved containing a singer that can actually sing too.

[fingersjkjk]

I have known Fanny since release of Charity Ball Album, is a Shame Jean (the bassist) Sister June had left the band prior to this Don Kersner’s Saturday Rock concert TV Show, though if you have read her or talked to her over the years as I her book Fanny Rocks The Earth, there was a great immense friction between her and Niki. Patti was was in a earlier band in California with her sister etc Suzi was known to Fanny and thought to be a good replacement for June Millington, this performance from their album Rock n Roll Survivors was the last album of Fanny. Fanny has been referred to the Godmothers of Rock, as a musician at that time we crossed paths with most every big or up and coming big name in the business. Fanny needs to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for all their contributions to the music industry. Both Jean & June Millington ought to be in the songwriters hall of fame. In recent years the members (minus Nikki) are finally getting the recognition as well as the respect which they earned while overcoming immense barriers in the late 60/70s

I'm giving my age away but the First time that I heard/saw Fanny was on the Sonny and Cher Show when I was 12. On that day this young Boy raised by a Single Mom found out that Girls can ROCK just like the Boys and became a Fan of Fanny, The Runaways, Heart, Suzi Quarto, Vixen, Doro of Warlock and more. I found a Video of a Song they did called Play Like a Girl and it brought a 😀 to my Face.

[stevenevans]

That was fantastic. I probably saw this on TV at 1 AM when it aired.

[mauriceholder]

I was 13 years old when this aired. This still rocks.

[CheestosParade]

Another great performance from Fanny!❤I really love this band!❤

[itsmewildbill]

Excellent clip, never saw anything live from this era. June was a beast on bass, what a great set. Thanks for posting this!
