Percolator - Billy Joe and the Checkmates

[tigermark64]

This film does look like an old version of the "Animusic" video series.

More proof of an idle mind is the Devil's workshop!!! Fantastic animation...

[urdedmete]

this is not identical to the maxwell house commercial, it was slighlty different. I dont know if they got it from this song. What animation software and platform was used for this video... Lightwave 3D?

This was a takeoff on a Maxwell House commercial in the early '60s.Turned out to be a hit song.

[GGE47]

Good to the last drop.

おお！

[tigermark64]

This ia a neat film, reminds me of Animusic videos sometimes shown on PBS. This 1962 song has a very catchy sound.

This song was used in a coffee commercial, right? Was it Maxwell House?

It went all the way to #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 on 3/17/62.

I believe that this was a hit before maxwell house "locked" onto it.

Was this Song a theme Song on a NYC kids Show on WNEW-TV Channel Five in the early 60? This Song sounds familiar.

Are you saying you made this video from your own 45? WOW! Good job.

I think I totally ruined my brother's copy of this song I played it so much.

Thanks for putting it on youtube. It sure brings back memories for me. I even sent a youtube message to my 3 grown sons to listen to this. I'm sure they won't like it like I do.

This is amazing. How did you do this? Special computer program? This should win some sort of Youtube award. I assume there are such things? There are awards for everything!

[iluvwhutto]

My brother had this song when I was just 4 years old. I played it over and over again on my little record player. Sh*t I'm 50 now.

[terminusj]

This is from one of those old records played over and over again!

And it was lots of fun when I was a kid as well!

[vinylsingleman]

I think the tune that rainydaywoman is thinking of is Popcorn, by Hot Butter, not Dennis Coffey, which came out in 1972.

[JEBauder1948]

This is actually Percolator (Twist), which was rated NO. 87 for all of 1962

[rainydaywoman43]

i love this tune!!

does anyone remember dennis coffey?, he had a hit in the early 70s called something like this and id love to hear it again.

[iloveanimecartoons]
