@bettiethepageluvsit fine. like I stated, it was a good tune back then. I didn't say anything about hecklers. Just that some kids thought the song was funny, it seemed.
yes, terry c. Bill Vermillion, Bob Bacon, bonus bell boing buzzer beep beep. all was right back then. top 10 songs every night. used to stay up just to listen!
Orlando, Florida, 1966. WLOF, Channel 95, played this at their record hops. Mustangs, corduroy pants, Gant shirts, chain smoking Marlboros, Falstaff beer, early access to fairly good Marijuana. girls wearing garter belts under their skirts as normal, Theater X on Channel 9 on Saturday afternoons, water skiing on Christmas Day, hitching to Daytona and back with a surfboard....
Wow ... Grew up in the Chicago area and I haven't heard this song in ages..Brings back great memories of live Chicago bands I listened to in the 60's..Shadows of Knights ...Yes...lol..
I was driving, with a younger friend in Atlanta. Summer '89,and his cassette starts playing... I'm Goin'... Wait....Thats I confess!!!! It was The Chesterfield Kings. Thats When I knew, it Was the F*Kin Best song ever (from 66)
took me years to find a copy of this record (in Chicago!) - guess nobody wanted to give one up... I know how they feel! As I've heard the story "I Confess" was put together out of parts of two or three songs they'd written; any truth to that?
The Colony still does shows. They have a garage band show comming up soon at Reggie's on south State St. in Chicago. Jimy Rogers from The Mauds is on that bill too.
Hey colony jr Art Donovan WHAS Louisville Where he said "The two most requested songs", on his late-night program (til '96) "I confess" and "You Wouldn't Listen" Ides of March How cool is THAT
nice!

This great song pretty much captures what it was like in the mid to late 60s Chicago music scene.
