Rick Derringer - McCoys - Hang On Sloopy

[Baskerville22]

NO, never heard of it...and I suspect that you & Derringer might be the only people who ever did.

[MsZathras]

It's impossible to stay totally still during this song!

Sounds as great as when I first heard it a few decades ago!!

[Sharilynn1852]

LOVE THIS GUY!

[Baskerville22]

Derringer ? How fitting. They had one shot....then nothing.

[Ombrenuit]

@Baskerville22 Doing a little research would save you a lot of embarrassment. This guy was famous for a lot more than Sloopy. Ever heard of Rock n Roll Hoochie Koo?

Still good to see Rick still playing live, and still sounding fantastic.

One of my fave guit-fiddle players.

[bahashawa1]

@d6p2 Amen , Brother , one of my faves as well !!!! The pride of Piqua , Ohio !!!!

[DANINVEGAS]

Still the official Rock and Roll song of the State of Ohio. The Ohio State Marching Band ( "The Best Damn Band in the Land") plays it during breaks at every game. Go Bucks!

I bought this 45 at a garage sale for 10 cents, when I was 5 years old (1971) and thought it was so cool.

After a few days of playing it around the clock on my phono player my mother freaked out and said it was pornographic.

She still let me rock out to it though, she's pretty cool I guess:)

I got to meet Rick's wife Jenda on Tuesday night(the 26th); in a local hangout called The Shake Pit in Bradenton, Florida where I live. I was there with my soon to be husband when she came in. She is super nice. This song was playing on the radio as she was talking to us and the owner about Rick.

Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo!! lol

[BETTY5391]

Maravilloso...

[sosome57]

I was a kid when this came out in '65. I thought he was singing "Snoopy, hang on" at first! Go Snoopy! KTKT Channel 99 in Tucson, AZ! Hahaaaaa! Oy, I never thought I'd live this long. Cheers.

[julieaholcomb]

I'm still hanging on!!!

[GRAW2ROBZ]

I know the song says "Sloopy". But this song is dedicated to my moms dog Snoopy!

[guyNbluejeans]

For all these years I thought it was "Hang on Snoopy". How could I have been sooo wrong?

[MsZathras]

One of the 'anthem' songs of the boomers!

Hard to sit still when this is on - no matter how old we may be!

[colblimp]

I may get shot for this but I liked his live work with, ahem, Cyndi Lauper.

[mangeldeth]

Wow, this presentation is amazing.

[terrymwalsh]

Everybody has a song that they can't shake and this has to be Rick's, FANTASTIC! And his body of work since ain't so bad either. Thanks Rick for the music man!

[Gokboets]

Nice video with a lovely song and it still sounds as if it was from then.
