BENNINK & Ritchy v Gessel


Leo & Dihl Bennink have a long
musical history behind
them,both were members of two
famous Dutch groups in the
sixties Dihl(Tee Set)
Leo(The Motions)in 1996 they
got the idea to join together
and started the legendary
guitar group The Black Albinos
with Hoss on fenderbass,
It makes this band a true time
capsule of one of the best
guitar talents/bands in this
world around.

Leo began as a guitar-player
in 1959 with the Indo-Rock
groups THE REAL RHYTHM TEENS
and THE ROCKING SENSATION
BOYS. In 1962 (17 years old)
he started a professional
career as a member of THE
TWANGIES and he played for
several years in Western
Germa­ny. His last contract
in Germany was with THE
REBELS, in which he met
drummer Leo Kappé. Back in
Holland he played guitar in
such guitar-groups as RENE &
ALLIGATORS, THE SPECIALS, THE
SPECIAL FIVE and THE BLACK
ALBINO'S. With THE SPECIAL
FIVE he recorded Silly Silly
and it's his most remembered
instru­men­tal. At that time
Leo also was the first
guit­arist in Holland, who
could play all the Mosrite
stuff from Nokie Edwards. In
1966 his career got a lift
when he was a member of Dutch
beat groups as THE JAY JAYS
and THE MOTIONS. For THE JAY
JAYS LP he also recorded
Cruncher (from Ventures LP
Surfing). With THE MOTIONS he
toured all over Europe and
even did concerts is the USA
together with ERIC BURDON,
FRANK ZAPPA, ALICE COOPER and
THE MONKEES. In 1991 he was a
member of the 'new' JUMPING
JEWELS and a single was
recorded for CNR with Hot
Samba (written by Leo Bennink)
and Dakota. Also released in
Japan on CD (Sound Of Euro
Instro/ CENTURY) together with
a third track Africa. Leo is a
real Strat-man, but in the
mid-sixties he used his own
build guitar 'Maserati' with 6
pick-ups and silver
scratchplate. Since 6 years
has Bennink a musicschool at
home and he's teaching guitar,
bass and keyboard and he's
also producing modern r&b with
new talents (less)
