    Dave Leone & Punch Andrews were Mananagers

    Dave is gone Punch is still Bob Segar & Kid Rock Mgr.

    Bob Segar & Glen Frey(Eagles) started out at the Hideout

  • The style of this song sounds very Motown-like or influenced. Great soulful singing too!  Overall a hybrid of rock and soul.

  • that is my dad hahahha!!!!

  • @whitebunker1313 no way u one lucky guy/girl

  • Awesome

  • The Underdogs at the Hideout in Harper Woods---the BEST Friday nights ever! Dave Whitehouse and Mike Morgan! LHS67 kids ROCKED with the Underdogs! Does ANYONE have their "Little Girl" song to upload on youtube?

  • I used to go to school with this group, still a great sound and great memories!!!

  • new one on me.

  • @ParisRaboneTV yes this is my dad David Whitehouse I am proud to say that I am James Whitehouse HIS SON!!!!!

  • @whitebunker1313

    How is your dad doing these days?

  • @ParisRaboneTV I believe this was on the VIP label which was a motown subsidiary.

  • @ParisRaboneTV : Yes.

  • Thank you so much for this...I always thought that the Underdogs version of this song was the definitive....

    So much "blue eyed soul" from Detroit in the mid 60's.

    I'm another blue eyed detroit boy......

  • ha ha ha

    I used to play with a band called "the underdogs" in the mid - ninties.

    I wonder if they knew about this group.

    Nobody seemed to mind the name share; and the band is no more.

    They only put out a couple of albums with that name.

    Now they are "the Chemistry set"

    =)

  • This is so real!!! Love it....they are being themselves instead trying to sound soulful, and magic happens...with the utmost respect!

  • This should have been a huge hit - Motown dropped the ball. I remember seeing the Underdogs when I was in high school - a great band that should have been huge. RIP Michael.

  • Indeed!

  • @fa4452 My dad is the lead singer (Dave Whitehouse) He still to this day wishes they would have stayed together. 

  • damn good jam

  • Yes it is/was. Thanks for the viewing.

  • I found this record in a Grab Bag lot today! That same lot also inclued a 1962 Erma Franklin!

  • Bubbled Under the charts at #122 in 1967-'68.

  • Nice collage too.

  • Great punk cover.

  • Punk wasn't even INVENTED until the seventies!

  • I went to high school (GPHS-South) with the Underdogs. Wow, they made those years the best. Dave, Chris, Mike, & Tony they WERE the Doghouse. I sure would love to know what they have done, and how they are since those days in the '60s. So happy to hear that Dave W. has two sons. Hope they are as good looking as their father. Wow! Thanks Underdogs, you certainly added a wonderful demention to my high school and teen years. Thanks for the memories.

  • Love love LOVE this song/version.

    Is that the Motown studio drummer??

  • Great! A Motown classic.

  • The Second Sex's version of the song is better!

  • ahahaha ! bonne blague

  • Could someone please E-mail me the lyrics to

    the Underdogs' killer rendition of

    "Love's Gone Bad?"

  • I am a straight up Motown fan and I love this version...it rocks...

  • I still have this 45!!! dance, dance, dance!!! we had good in those days. Detroit and ann arbor was at true mecca for music. geri in detroit

  • There was definately more to Detroit than just Motown.

  • Shit,shit,shit HOT man! BRilliant upload-never expected to hear this on youtube!

  • Thanks for the comment. I never thought that someone actually has a copyright to the single. Glad they let me keep it up.

  • the lead singer of this is Dave Whitehouse and he is my father. He lives in utah and has 2 sons. Steve Whitehouse(me) and my older brother James whitehouse. Thanks for posting

  • Comment removed

  • Also listen to "Friday at the Hideout", "Man in the Glass" by the UNDERDOGS!! GREAT band from Grosse Pointe High, Michigan--played at "The Hideout" on Friday nights in Harper Woods---you were GREAT! Anyone have "Little Girl" by the Underdogs? How about it, James Whitehouse?!!! I KNOW your dad, Dave, MUST have it!!!

  • awesome song. love it.

  • Thanks for the view!

  • LOVE THIS. It's scooter rallies,speed and non-stop abuse.

  • Glad I could help.

  • one of my fave records, thanks!

  • Thanks for the view.

  • Wait a Minute by Tim Tam and CHERYL ANN by Tim Tam is on YouTube.

  • Great stuff. Thanks for the post.

  • Thanks for the view.

  • the Underdogs were one of the best 60's bands really understimated...

  • I think these guys played Harper Woods' Eastland Center Court, "Farmer John" was one tune they did...

  • Farmer John was a popular number for many groups of that era. It was among certain "standards" a group was expected to know/play back in the day.

  • In Detroit, I can remember the common numbers played by the garage groups: Farmer John, Louie Louie (Paul Revere and the Raiders Style), Gloria, Out of Sight, and Let me. Those are the numbers that stick out in my mind.

  • I think you have The Underdogs confused with another local Detroit band called "The Tidal Waves", who had the huge local Detroit area hit, called "Farmer John"...It was first released on the local SVR label, then was later issued on the HBR (Hanna Barbera Records) label.

  • I remember the Tidal Waves version of "Farmer John" even before the Premiers from Fullerton CA. What about another garage group from Detroit - Tim, Tam and the Turn ons?

  • Not many of Tim, Tam and the Turn ons are found on compilations. But I know that "Wait a Minute" is on a compilation called "Michigan Nuggets" along with other prominent Michigan acts of the day. I'll see what I can do.

  • The Michigan Nuggets album is great. There is suppose to be a song on it by a band called Ormandy called Good Day. That is a great song that is impossible to find anywhere. I have tried for years - hunting in used record stores in Michigan with no luck.

  • I have Ormandy Good Day but have no image for the band and the information I get off the web is kind of sketchy at best.

  • I was told by a told by a record store owner in East Lansing MI., who provided the music for a 1977 WILS FM Michigan Garage Band show, that one of the guys in Ormandy went on to play with Bob Seger's Silver Bullet Band. It was just hearsay, but maybe that will be of some help.

  • Yeah, the sax player has his own web-site but I guess is not very nostalgic for he's only promoting a new CD. It just could be that no promotional photos of the group have not survived. I think they only recorded a few singles. Tim, Tam and the Turn Ons are found elsewhere on the tube in case you are still looking.

    As far as Ormandy goes, it's just I like to have an image to put with a video. I have done one other without one but it's not much fun.

  • Yes, it was the sax player that the guy was talking about. I understand about Ormandy. You are doing a great job.

  • Thanks! I'll try to put something together on Ormandy soon.

  • Yes, i remember them playing in the court. It was way before they put the roof on. I remember the vietnam moretarium also. I still work at the mall. geri in st. clair shores

  • My dad was the lead singer. his name is dave whitehouse. his stories are great. Hes doing awesome and lives in utah.

  • That is great Steve. It was a great era to be young in. Robin Seymours" "Swiningtime". it was a teen dance show that was on everyday at Four in the afternoon, you had to go to windsor to get on the show. I am glad i still have my 45 copy!!! geri in st. clair shores

  • I prefer the more recent version of Second sex

    But I love this song <3

  • I'll have to give that one a listen. Is it on the tube?

  • Thanks for the great UNDERDOGS song---now please find "Little Girl" by Underdogs to post--another great one!! For 'Detroiters', Underdogs were from Grosse Pointe and played at the Harper Woods "HideOut"!

  • I'll see what I can do.

  • I've always loved it but it's from 1967 not 1965.

    RIP Mike.

  • Actually, truth be told it reached its peak success on the charts at 122 in 1966. The band's first single was released in 1965; it just wasn't this one.

    Sorry for the typo.

  • I hate to say it but you're wrong with your dates. The single was released on 4th Jan 1967 on VIP 25040 and did indeed reach #122.

  • I updated the text information to read 1967.

  • Who did the soul version? If you're thinking Chris Clark, she was "blue-eyed soul", too. I do prefer the Underdogs' version (which I heard on WEAM in the Washington, DC, in early 1967) over the Chris Clark version, which I first heard in the late 1980s.

  • The Jackson 5 and other Motown artists have done it as well. I believe Michael even did a solo version too.

  • This is snotty danceable garage punk. One of my Favorites!!! Love the beat and the guitar solo. Drumming is also great. I have this on red vinyl. Fantastic post!!

  • Thanks!
