Was anybody else here brought here by John Carpenters "The Ward"? It's crazy how movies make old songs popular. Look at Incidious and the Tiny Tim song. lol
I have not heard this song since 1965 when it was on the charts. It is sad how some things disappear into eternal obscurity. Does anyone know how to access the Newbeats' song Breakaway. It was their third and, alas, their last single.
I love this song and your video, too. Thanks for keeping the great stuff alive! I dare any group or performer to make a record even half as good as this today. it can't be done.
Hickory Records began around 1954 by country legends Roy Acuff & Wesley Rose to showcase tunes they were printing at Acuff-Rose Publishing. It wasn't until Hickory signed country-turned-pop singer Sue Thompson that they had success on the Billboard Hot 100.
By 1964 more artists were added to Hickory's pop roster, like the Newbeats. Two of the trio's members had fame earlier as Dean & Marc, who recorded "Tell Him No". And Newbeat member Larry Henley would write "Wind Beneath My Wings".
Great tune was re-released in the UK October 1971 and made it to #10 and got quite a bit of radio play there.......... Great Song!! I love it!!

The interior of the store reminds me of the now defunct Walden Five & Dime in Buffalo, NY ... miss those times.

The Newbeats were better known for "Bread & Butter" but this song is so great and underplayed. Love this so much.

Had never heard of this until I saw John Carpenter's "The Ward." I like when films choose rarer songs that the usuals everybody will recognize.

I think this song rocks, and especially like the vibraphone (the xylophone-sounding thing)...

Hickory was Donovan's initial label before he signed on with Columbia/Epic.

Darn right it was great to be alive in '65. I was just 11 but it was one of the best years of my childhood. Thanks, 74sodapop.
