blue moon- sha na na- flip wilson

[thorshammer1348]

Wow ,I was a Hugh fan of sha na ma,in 1974 ,this is an early cast line up of the band they're show, different members.

[falloutdisco11]

The Dead Milkmen sent me here

[shawncindigabriel]

I love sha na na especially bowser and Donny wish the show was back

[DJTEVAdotCOM]

they can sing unless its lipsync

[thatguythere858]

whats up hot dog?!?!?!

[vaters310]

good performance



[phillyphil690]

The cut-aways and laugh track in this are completely stupid, hurts the performance.

[donnyyorkfan]

For a second I didn't recognize Donny. his hair is different

[quirpco]

Keep pressing 9. lol

[MultiBarometer]

I grew up listening to these guys!!!!!!

[yarekhunt]

These guys just rock!

I heard that 1of them is a lawyer in NYC,

I want him to represent me but only if he wears the gold suit to court

[chuckbuckbobuck]

70's schtick at its finest--the devil made me do it!

[Imayorkiemom]

I Love Sha Na Na, there is only ONE Bowzer!!!

[coindude49801]

Ya know, if they took the original laugh track out of this, it would be a bit more epic

[TheSlinkyGuyShow]

@coindude49801 Never! That's why Scrubs is so boring. There's no laugh track.

[coindude49801]

epic

[Zzyyxxyyxx]

Some of those faces were absolutely horrifying! That said, Bowzer is still the man! Grease for peace!!!

[G8GT364CI]

That canned laugh track gotta go, it's ridiculous.

[sirwob]

I think I'm so cool, I'm 56 and I like this stuff

[andmaketherain]

I don't know why, but I just farted when I saw this...

[DeanMartin1231]

@andmaketherain

I agree...it's very gasy.

[donquixote2u]

this clip was a tv classic moment!

[losghost]

I have pictures of me and Bowser when I was 8? I think. It's next to my picture of me and Harry Belefonte.

[ChrisYonts]

I'm 46 years old and I think these guys are good.

[MyShaifuddin]

my father like song this because u are popular in 1969 year ago

[TheDudeabides247]

That laugh track made me laugh...

[swfcindy]

Bowser is the BEST!!! He's a great guy--a heart of gold! We Love You, BOWSER!!!

[63magilla]

Bowser , what a skinny tough guy !

[TheAblaise]

Good lord. Bowzer is fuckin ugly

[sulufest]

Yeah, why the canned laughter?  takes away from their awesome performance. :/

[epicman7295]

this is what real music sounds like

[gianasgran]

The guy with the deep voice is called

"Bowser".. great bass!!

[Yipp5eY]

the guy at 0:21 looks like the main vampire from fright night

Jerry the vampire!

[twotimespecial]

You can move to Montana and listen to Santana, but you still won't be as cool as Sha Na Na

[ManuZombie]

@twotimespecial I see what you did there! (loving the Dead Milkmen reference)

[MikeSala65]

@twotimespecial Great!

[chchchchchc1]

it would be amazing if this was totally by accident. lol

[kangadillo]

Bowzer acts mean and tough here. I'm glad he didn't keep that up. On the Sha Na Na show he was funny and fun.

[goodylook]

i dont believe i fell for this stuff. i guess i was young

[karatee1000]

they are great

[exitwest]

Ahhh to be young, alive and ugly as sin in the 70s.....

[gmanor20]

The Daily Show sent me here

[millfred123]

Were these the same producers from Laugh-In? horrible,unfunny material with senseless laugh trax ... AWFUL!!!

[MMA4CHUMPS]

I know it's said a lot but I'm 18 and in a band that is trying to not let this genre die, there is honestly a unspeakable pride that comes with it. WISH US LUCK

[kangadillo]

Good God, how much did Bowzer weigh in those days? His waist looks about eight inches!

[jonatas80802]

[nchgwg8q]

Totalmente lixo, totalmente fantástico.

[Quintin551ROBLOX]

Modern bands ruined classic songs.

[IStillLoveLucy111]

What's the audience laughing at?

[nchgwg8q]

!?!

[KAYKAT74]

I think it's hillarious with the laugh track! Lmao! I used to watch them when i was little.

[keytarpimp]

The laugh track shouldn't be there.

[petatiux]

I dont know what is this show about, but everyone is having a really good time with the preformance of BLUE MOON!

[PerryMarlin]

Whats with the laugh track tho, These guys were great in their time...

[revmary]

where is bowser now? You know he is a classically trained julliard pianist

[northvilletunnels]

Never watch this while you are on acid.

[dbonne28]

[diggledo1]

This is wrong. You shouldn't mock something beautiful & you have ruined it.

[irenaprude2010]

Damn canned laughter. It ruins this classic song.

[romeokid69]

[chemicalblowout12345]

[ariexmae]

@chemicalblowout12345 Don't worry lots of people don't have any friends.

[DanGilmrtin]

@chemicalblowout12345 no need to try and impress us with your age.

[chemicalblowout12345]

@DanGilmrtin Who said I was impressing you? I was just saying.

[akjk1212]

@chemicalblowout12345 I feel nothing but sorrow for you.

[chemicalblowout12345]

@akjk1212 What?

[akjk1212]

[Illuminu]

>XO

[hidoll22]

U could hear the laughing they are making weird and scary faces. U think this was the first time I saw Sha na na and I thought how weird the looked 2

[hidoll22]

U could hear the laughing they are making weird and scary faces

[PrincessWildfire]

wow..have not seen them since I was a kid....loved them!

[fitwomen]

Nahhhh, Bowzer makes it. haha love all the porkchops.

[TheAblaise]

Bowzer is f/cking hideous..........

[sasukeanri]

笑いがあるのはベースのボーカル？

[naganokumas]

Thank heaps for this.

However, the look on their faces tended to suggest, to me, a frustration that they wanted to go punk at that particular moment in the evening.

Sha Na Na doing punk?

I wish.

Later in the evening, when the punk has been spurted, let's return to some Doo-Wop, and Soul.

And on the car radio, on the way home, let's have some Bach/Prokofiev/Sam Cooke/ Dusty Springfield/ Ed Kuepper/ Rammstein, etc.

It's all about fulfilling the moment.

Fill it without others' rules.

[debbiedamooseful]

@naganokumas I'll take Sam Cooke............thanks!

[naganokumas]

@debbiedamooseful Yes. That's what I mean. We can choose what we want to fulfil the moment.

Good choice.

[4reichx]

I tried to email this to my home email.....and says successful....but never arrives in my mailbox. Do I need to do something else?

BEFORE JOHNNY!!

[spacewalker1551]

They just don't have t.v. like this anymore.

[DepBrunoSantos]

ÉÉÉ, Humor é coisa Seria.. KKkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[tiananman]

It's a lot better if you just pretend they're handicapped

[LikeexTropiical]

Mörder Gaaay! xDD

[XxMindfreakzxX]

ich finde das so schwul aber so geil :D

I find this so gay but also really cool

[allmiles1]

these guys were awesome

[JMSBNY1980]

Bowzer came knocking at my door last night, in Buffalo NY, asking to place my vote in a special election last night for the 26th district of NY... TRue Story

[xurubix]

So Missed them

[chiparoo222]

80 thumbs down ? -- Wonder what planet they come from ?

[NewWaveFan1]

BOWZER is BOSS!

[JayBBluejay]

There are some of the members of Sha-Na-Na I recognize: Bowser, Lennie, Denny, Scott Powell (AKA Santini), Screamin' Scott Simon, Donny, and Jocko (on the drums). The ones I don't know are the one with the glasses, the men with facial hair other than Lennie, and the member with glasses. If anyone can help me identify the band in this clip, let me know.

[JayBBluejay]

Don't let Jon "Bowzer" Bauman's greased-back hair, sideburns, sneer, and intimidating looks fool you. He is a graduate of Columbia University where he graduated magna cum laude.

Also, Lennie Green, who also played saxophone, is doing an excellent job singing "Blue Moon".

[OneThousandTimesOver]

lol 2:09 :D

[Wartonite]

What's up with the stupid laugh tracks?!?

These guys are AWESOME!!!

[diamonddust22]

I don't know why they are laughing in the audience. I dont think the laughter is real. It's canned laughter which is so stupid.

[DeepSouthWrestling1]

Bowzer is one creepy looking mother fucker!!!

[diamonddust22]

@DeepSouthWrestling1 Bowzer wasn't creepy at all. He was awsome. You want creepy? Take a look at micheal jackson or any rap and hip hop slob.

[DeepSouthWrestling1]

@diamonddust22 : There's a difference between looking creepy and being creepy... I love Bowzer, but that face!!

[diamonddust22]

@DeepSouthWrestling1 lol

[BeatlesExaminer]

these guys were fantastic. Saw them in concert one time and they did a song -- it may have been this one -- and jon bowser bauman spit on the mike stand and left a gob that reached to the floor. they were very funny.

[BeatlesExaminer]

these guys were fantastic. Saw them in concert one time and they did a song -- it may have been this one -- and jon bowser bauman spit on something was holding and left a gob that reached to the floor. they were very funny.

[NIghtRider805]

wow ... wtf ..... this is hilarious

[ShadyMunsterr]

i really only watch this cuz bowzers face

[SuperPussyFinger]

What's with the arbitrary laugh track?

[cathridge]

@SuperPussyFinger Really!! Why is this funny? A laugh track during a musical performance is so stupid. This is what these guys do. I guess it was considered corny parody during this era (70s) but I always loved these guys even then.

[debbiedamooseful]

@SuperPussyFinger Hey, it was the Flip Wilson Show.....we all laughed. Bowser is too funny.

[SuperPussyFinger]

WhatSs

[lisa8220]

Have always loved this song, but have never seen the Sha Na Na group. What a joy to see them, and check out the other videos. Thank you so much.

[okeogwo]

WOW! BICEPS!

[sweetp06coolmhe]

Sure would like to find a clip of the night Roy Clsrk performed on Flip's show. Anybody?

[sacrobuboy]

LUPIN!!

[kd4adv]

Look at ol' "Bowzer" :) LOL :)

[EmperorofCartoons]

@kd4adv Fuckin a, man was my idol.

[kittywhiskerz]

I remember the Flip Wilson show as a kid. Was this performance from 1970?

[9mmAlpha]

Kids dont do Drugs

[computerrage]

@9mmAlpha Some do!

[TypOPositiv]

hahaha.

I just wanted to say....

BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUE.....MOOOOOO­ON!



[texboy91]

omg their so ugly

[gandy74]

@texboy91 You think the guy at :15 is ugly? He's obviously good looking...and would be considered so today.

Just in case you missed the memo..I mean the one that didn't come from corporate America & L.A.Models...being average looking is NOT ugly.

Oh, and it's "they're" not "their".

You apparently didn't get THAT memo either.

[texboy91]

@gandy74 dude get eyes hes clearly looks like a human version of dumbo

[texboy91]

@gandy74 he**

[ltrich50]

Wow, you can't tell this was ealy 70s, eh?

[WytZox1]

How come guys from ShaNaNa could show their navels on prime time TV but Cher couldn't? Holy hypocrasy!

[WizardGlik]

Sorry folks, but I prefer my Santini BALD and my Bowser with a 44-inch waist!

[75DrummerBoy]

Oh so this was on TV Land back when they used to be good and showed classic TV instead of garbage. Oh those were the days!!!!

[cdude1313]

1:57 best part EVER

[hussnfussel]

bowser sure had to have alot of nerve struting around at a 120 lbs on stage looking like a bad ass.lol gotta luv him

[TypOPositiv]

@hussnfussel

yeah. I have to agree with you there. But, at the same time, I would too if someone paid me tons of money say, "BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUE....MOOO­ON!"

hahaha.

[BringDaAmberLamps]

Every time I see Bowser back then, I feel like I want to offer him a chocolate milkshake or some spaghetti or something.

[Nofixedabodetube]

Certainly my favourite version of this song - stunningly performed at the Great Eastern Festival (Bardney, Lincolnshire, UK) in 1972 including the impressive throat clearing unfortunately omitted here. Nobody laughed then - just cheering!

[mefington]

I WAS THE 1000th LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHH

[MichaelHansenFUN]

i think the lead singer in here is the sax player

Lennie Baker

leanord j baker

[MichaelHansenFUN]

Jon "Bowzer" Bauman has spoken on behalf of musicians who are upset about contemporary groups who use classic groups' names even though none of the members performed on any of the albums. Supporters include Charlie Thomas of The Drifters, Mary Wilson of The Supremes, & Carl Gardner of The Coasters. Bauman has also helped pass legislation that would compel any group using the name of a classic group to have at least one of the original members. The measure is known as the Truth in Music Act.

[MichaelHansenFUN]

what bowzer looks like now

waaaaaaaaaaaa ha ha ha ha

[praiznhym4ever]

Wow this is old!! WOW so am I!!! =)

[72DBRONCO]

Poeple are just crackin' up! I guess the humor part of it is lost on me...

[thegliphic]

@72DBRONCO Its a laugh track dude, this is right around the time laugh tracks came out and every producer in america had there finger on the button. it make me feel like i have no sense of humor..:)

[Aerohog1]

So what they laughin' at! The boys were delivering du goods old time style!

[foreigncareater]

Bowzer Rocks!.....God I miss the old days!

[yarekhunt]

[TheVoiceOfTemptation]

@angeilbabe982 Yes there is, but not many.

[wallofvideo]

[skamonkey10]

[MrVaari]

[wallofvideo]

@MrVaari actually, the ramones appeared on "sha na na." they performed "rock n roll high school."

[FoxyTowns]

Derp Moon.

[JubalCalif]

Heavens to Murgartroid!  Always loved to see the wacky shenanagins of "Sha Sha Na". Their syndicated show was a lot of FUN to watch. Wish it had lasted longer. Oh well...at least we were able to see them as guest stars on MANY other shows, such as this one. THANKS for posting this delightful "blast from the past"!!! :)

[edwinachikere]

I forgot about those gold pants. LOL! I love Sha Na Na!

[TJCATLOVER]

I watched ShaNaNa all the time as a kid.

[adgato75]

@TJCATLOVER me too. loved it.

[northvilletunnels]

Hahahahaha novelty music. They should have played Junk Food Junkie.  BTW Tom Bosley sucks
