Beau Brummels - Gentle Wandering Ways

[cinephonik]

More like the Beau Hazelwoods...

[Kramnosnits]

IT'S RON ELLIOT SINGING. ok ? "gawd"

[blacflag]

ok, watch the tone, i have a lot of things going on, my mind isn't always on this mate....

[moonstomp70]

my favourite beau brummels track, gonna have to dig my old vinyl lp out and give it a spin

[potaluca]

Wasn't Ron Elliot the one with the froggy, Johnny Cash-esque voice?

[blacflag]

i'd post more brummels but they tend to get pulled by warner brothers quite regular.

[12347771]

That's not Sal Valentino on lead voc. Could it be Ron Elliot the guitar player and driving force of the band? Anyone know?

[Romecay]

Which record is this the B-Side of then?

[Soujurn]

I've read that Elizabeth Montgomery liked the Serena character better than the Samantha character as she was a lot closer to her real personality than the goody goody Samantha.

[hollies65]

One of my favorite Beau Brummels tunes!

[IDLERACER]

I believe this is the only tune the Beau Brummels ever recorded with Ron Meagher handling the lead vocal. He sounds a bit like Johnny Cash.

[blacflag]

really?, he should have done more, has some depth....

[royalfuzziness]

He does sound like him.

[labambawatusi]

The voice is not as deep, but yeah, maybe a smaller Johnny Cash

[pgh45rpms]

Ron Meagher was also featured on "They'll Make You Cry", the b-side to "Just a Little", taken from the BB's first lp ("Introducing the Beau Brummels"). They were a much underrated group at the time. All of their Autumn label material is top-quality rock n roll.

[blacflag]

i agree, i don't think they got much airplay in th uk at the time, i've only found the one uk pye 45, but i got the first two autumn us albums (one signed) and the early 45s, excellent sound

[pgh45rpms]

Back in the 60's I wrote to a penfriend living in Londonderry who said she never heard of the Beau Brummels. So I sent her a US disc of "Just a Little". 

Then in the 70's I was with the American Air Force stationed in the UK. In a Bedford department store (Braggins of Bedford) I bought the Pye International lp, "Introducing the Beau Brummels".

I read somewhere online that Radio Caroline had played several BB imports. (When Autumn folded in 66, their contract was with Warner Bros.)

[blacflag]

yeah, i got the pye 45 of 'laugh,laugh', i could imagine RC playing them....it's unfortunate warner bros. have their back catalogue, i'm not a fan of the major labels....they pull quite a lot of their tracks from youtube...they think they own everything...i wonder how they got on with royalties from them.

[yaiknowscrewme]

i dont know what it is about this song..but its sound is intersting

[blacflag]

i agree, like the other beau brummels stuff, but this struck me straight away as different, a bit haunting and dark maybe....

[jcross21]

I like the song too, also the Bewitched clip you added-sort of Amy Winehouse & I love Amy. Great edit, thanks for sharing.

[blacflag]

good point, would have worked with amy clips....

[curlyfry44]

At 1:13...cool outfit Serena is wearing...I want it.

[SILIA1994]

:artdamaged: can u please tell me the name of the episode you describe? please? :-D

[ilovebewitched878]

hey silia, this isn't an episode!!!! they would never make an ep like this EVER!!!!!!!

[SILIA1994]

lol i din't know it wasn't an ep!:P

[ForeverYoung58]

Although one doesn't have a whole lot to do with the other, Elizabeth Montgomery and The Beau Brummels' "Gentle Wondering Ways"-both about as good as it gets.

[blacflag]

it's true, but it's better than looking at a blank screen...i dont watch the show much, except as a kid but i happened to be watching an episode when this song came to mind....

[artdamaged]

My favorite episode of Bewitched is the one where Darrin brings home an important client only to find Samantha, Serena, Endora and Aunt Clara naked, sacraficing a small child in the living room. It was a true laugh riot.

[spinzig]

Serena is hot!

[visor109]

Sounds more like a Mike Mesmith Monkees tune...

[BobsWorld666]

The actress who played her is Pandora Spocks.

[artdamaged]

Actually it was the lovely Liz Montgomery

Pandora Spocks-Pandora's Box

[rodcrippler]

if you check her face carefully u can see samantha and serena are like twins, just with different haircuts

[AnaLuizaPenadaCunha]

Ela é demias!

[electrochubb]

She is hot...totally sexy.I'd rock her world.

[scdevon]

TV MILF

[joelamanning]

All in all Beau Brummels continue to please the senses. Definitely where it's at.

[lancetop]

Elizabeth Montgomery was just plain adorable!

[IndioFreak]

god she was sizzzzling hot!!

[fang666LSD]

damn Elizabeth Montgomery was sexy.

[stinkboat]

this is great..sounds a lot like the late great Lee Hazlewood. Samantha was a fox as her wicked dark haired lter ego. Greta clip blacflag
