When was the last time you heard this song....if you have ever heard it.

1. I never heard it, ever.

It wasn't played on the radio stations here and I never listened to one of their albums.

2. never heard it but wow i saw some fashions i used to wear in the 60's!

3. First time to hear it

The video is amazing. What I notice most is (a)no one is overweight, and (b) the young women show no signs of plastic surgery so common in modern media. Naturally beautiful.

What in the hell has happened to us?

4. I've never heard it either,

and that's the same thing I think every time I look at historic photos or video.

5. Dino, Desi and Billy

On the first album I ever got in 66. I have heard the other versions but D,D&B was my first crush so... I have to stick with their version.

6. Really? They covered that? That's what I like about Music Appreciation. I learn

something new every day.

To answer the OP's question, I've never heard this before. It's a good tune. I liked Manfred Mann.

Another video suggests this was the first color broadcast of the Ed Sullivan Show.

8. They were so cute. My mom woke me up for that show.

My first crushes.

9. There's a second clip from that show on YouTube.

The first tune sounded like "Louie, Louie." This one sounds like something from The Byrds.

I've seen a picture of DD&B online that I'll post if I can find it. Pix of them are all over, but this one is taking a little bit of searching.

10. Over fifty years I must admit...

Seems like I've heard a cover somewhere waay back as well. Great tune.

11. I just loved this tune. It was my favorite Manfred Mann song.

I even bought the 45. I didn't hear it a whole lot on the radio in the States but it topped the UK Charts. Such a great song. Brings back a lot of fond memories.

13. Here's another great Manfred Mann song.

This was done in 1966.This may have been their last single featuring Paul Jones, a truly great rock singer. Why he wasn't huge is just a mystery, kinda like Steve Marriott. Steve was a much bigger star than Paul, but they both should have been bigger.
Paul's pretty much known as the guy who sang Doo Wah Diddy, and he wasn't even known by his name, just the guy who sang it.
Mike d'Abo replaced him in 1968 and while they did have two hits, Blinded by the Light and The Mighty Quinn, he was a far inferior vocalist.
Paul didn't like the pop direction it was going in.Before he joined the Manfreds Paul performed duets with " Elmo Jones", a stage name Brian Jones often played under. Brian and Keith Richards approached him about being the lead vocalist for a group they were forming. He turned them down.

The good news is that at almost 80 years of age his health appears good.

14. Thanks for the insight on Manfred Mann!

I had no idea the history of the band!

Thank you!
