Bobby Goldsboro - It's Too Late (Rare clip and a great song)

[jimmy59ca2001]

is Bobby still singing, havent heard about him for a long time, would like to see one of his shows

[watchful38]

The background seems to be from the 1967 Expo at Montreal Canada.I recognize the "Ontario Pavillion". I was there! One night at Expo '67, as it was called, my brother and I were having a drink...I spilled my beer all over my pants!!! A retired Catholic priest in Ontario. I haven't had a beer since! If you believe that, I also have the Golden Gate Bridge to sell you! I wasn't even thirty at the time.

[heightofearnestness]

such a treat, thank you

[afton53]

thanks for sharing, great tune to look back upon, would you have "watercolordays" by chance?manother one i remember well but can't find.

[recordman4862]

Bobby Goldsboro One of my 60s favorite great songs good guy

[gejopari]

Recognize the voice singing harmony on the chorus? That's Ray Stevens.

[JayBBluejay]

@gejopari Great job by both Bobby Goldsboro and Ray Stevens, two of the best entertainers/songwriters ever. I'm not sure where the video was made, but it looked like a British red ensign flag, which could have meant either Manitoba, Ontario, or a place where the former Canadian flag flew before it was replaced by the Maple Leaf flag.

[watchful38]

@JayBBluejay The place was Montreal, Canada, and the Pavillion was Ontario's. The flag is the Ontario Flag, which has the British Union Jack in the upper left hand corner & a Maple Leaf at the right lower side. Our Ontario flag remains the same. I was at expo '67 and visited the Ontario Pavillion & American Pavillion as well. I was 28 at the time & a Doctoral student at Laval U in Quebec City. My thesis director said to me: "Vous etes encore tres jeune." ("You're still very young.")

[luvmone]

@gejopari if you listen carefully to :"Little Things", you hear Ray Stevens on harmony also

[DavidXanadu]

Great lyrics, Great song !!!

Northern Soul

[hollies65]

SOLID GOLD!!!!

[mduncan81]

I'm pretty sure that's the site of the '67 World's Fair in Montreal.

[centralparocker]

[d4seasons]

@TooDarnSoulful

[brentthegent]

The song was recorded on October 15, 1965(during the "Broomstick Cowboy" album sessions) & released as United Artitsts single # 980a on January 7,1966. Another great song from Bobby Goldsboro! Thanks for posting it!

[MIKECNW]

@brentthegent Wonder if "She Chased Me' was recorded about the same time?

Both sound simmliar

[lorrainegate]

Oh wow...Talk about great memories!!!

Thanks for posting this...

Been well over 40yrs since I heard this last and remembered every word...

What a hoot!!!

[shmuli9]

I think this song sounds much more recent than 1966. And I think it's Disneyland, by the way...

[MIKECNW]

@shmuli9

Sounds like the mid 60's to me.

[SixtiesPopGold]

@shmuli9 It entered the Billboard Hot 100 on February 19th, 1966.

[shmuli9]

@SixtiesPopGold So it was probably recorded in late 1965?

[SixtiesPopGold]

@shmuli9 Well, December 1965 or January 1966, I'd say.

[w9x7cv3vg6]

@SixtiesPopGold hee hee yahh hardly any leaves on the trees

[grayfoxx3]

@SixtiesPopGold It was recorded in October 1965 in Nashville Tennessee.

[lhasa7]

@shmuli9 Actually, it's Expo 67 up in Montreal (see photos at Wikipedia).

[MIKECNW]

Anyone know where this was filmed?

[dougeroo1]

Little Things is a great track. Check out the Drugstore Cowboy soundtrack. Would love to see a HQ video of that.

[Claretsdoowop]

Without doubt,s this track along with Voodoo Woman, was his finest moments. After these two tracks it was downhill, recording rubbish like Honey.

[ktf60]

this still gets played at northern soul venues.ktf
