Here are this weeks results from the Battle of the Bands playing out on my radio show, Dr. John's Record Shelf. In the Teddy Boy Bracket, Free (seeded 12) upset the Yardbirds (5), while Manfred Mann (4) held off Ten Years After (13). The first contest was by a 5-3 margin, while the second went 5-4.
Manfred MannFree performed their classic "All Right Now," while the Yardbirds went with "Shapes of Things;" "Sha La La" by Manfred Mann took down "I'd Love to Change the World" by Ten Years After. This week's winners will square off in Round 2. They join the Rolling Stones, Mott the Hoople, The Who, Sweet, the Moody Blues, and the Tremeloes in moving into the next round. If you'd like to cast a vote for upcoming pairings, you can find the brackets here, here, here, and here (just leave a comment here with your selections-- you can vote for some or all of the pairs).
