Contours - Do You Love Me (Live, 1963)

[simplymrfingers994]

At 2:12, "C'mere Boom Boom,...", and at 3:00, the look on the lead singers face, he was a wild boy, nothing like the composed Contours of '66, with Dennis Edwards. I like these guys though, that energy is beautiful, I too would love to see the whole 90 minute show, are the Temptations on it too?

@recordguy4321 That's interesting...So the drummer is the Apollo house drummer and rest of the band is the Motown road band? The band director is clearly Choker Campbell and the interludes are the same arrangements as on other live Motown tracks of the era. I agree the drummer is not Benny, but he is BAD. That 90 min. vhs must be incredible.

OMG, is this a video of benny benjamin on the drums?!?!?!?!

if this the '63 Motown Revue it HAS to be Benny.

[recordguy4321]

@kylepesely That is not Benny on this song. It is the Apollo house band drummer. However Benny and James Jammerson do back up the Miracles at this same show when they perform Shop Around and You Really Got a Hold On Me. It's not on you tube, I've had a vhs copy of the whole 90 minute show for years . This drummer though is FANTASTIC!

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL. NONE CAN PERFORM THIS SONG LIKE THE CONTOURS.

Bruce Springsteen does a worthy cover of this song, but The Contours are the real deal!

Lots of fun.

@LittlPussi

The Dave Clark Five also had a hit with that energetic song.

@robertlaberge You are absolutely right! The DCF were destined for 60s super-stardom only to find Lennon and McCartney doing the same thing a little harder. That's why people keep on forgetting about them.
