The Magicians - Four to Go (Eye On New York, WCBS-TV 1966)




Another unique historical document -- a short film (produced by a local NY TV station) about The Magicians, a NYC band that seemed just on the verge of hitting it big, but never quite broke through. While no NYC group could be considered "typical" of the period's garage bands, this film does offer a fascinating inside glimpse of a rock musician's lifestyle and concerns just before hippies and the psychedelic era -- much of the film details the band members being hassled for wearing long hair, and a clear but unmentioned subtext is the band's transition from Stonesish R&B to Dylanesque folk-rock.



It's theoretically possible someone else here may have heard The Magicians, as their classic single "An Invitation to Cry" was included on the legendary Nuggets compilation of '60s garage bands.
