  • ....Sounds a lot like Lou Christie!!!

  • Great stuff  Thanks

  • I remember this band when I was young. Only recently rediscovered them and enjoy every song.

  • A great re-work of the original by The Dovells.

  • who is the guy on the red ES335?

  • Is that Geoff Turton, who also sung under the name "Jefferson," singing lead vocals and on rhythm guitar?

  • @Baci302 - Certainly is Geoff Turton and his falsetto voice

  • The British Frankie Valli!

  • @TurntableMadness Yeah, good call. It's got that guitar line in that sounds like melody line in "Save It For Me."

  • They're also still around and doing shows.

  • This band is from Birmingham England and this song was originally released in 1964. This clip is from the film "Pop Gear" which featured British acts of the pre 1965 era. Other groups that were in this film were The Honeycombs, The Four Most,

    The Four Pennies, Sounds Incorporated and others. I have this on video and it's a favorite of mine.

  • Which one is Stevie Riks?

  • Good in the sixties at Altrincam Stamford Hall.

  • after just hearing the Fourmost I could understand why they missed the first British Invasion of America, and I Was prepared to laugh at these guys, but so what? ! they have a unique sound. what happened ? didn't old Mr. B. Epstein own a piece of these guys? I want to hear more !

  • Produced by John Schroeder on Pye's Piccadilly subsidiary label. Now in the Universal catalogue.

  • Was this produced by Joe Meek?

  • Whilst the world was busy with the Stones, the Beatles, Beachboys ect. the Rocking Berries went about their business making little gems such as this, stunning!

  • This band didn't get the proper recognition it should have gotten in the states. Been looking for this song.

  • What movie (?) was this footage cut from? Fantastic quality!

  • @normvb This is from the movie Pop Gear - also known as Go Go Mania. Perfectly captures the British Invasion.....

  • @normvb "Popgear" came on AMC several yrs. ago, and I was introduced to the Rockin berries, and this song. I grew up during the 60s and 70s, and not all of the British groups during the 60s British invasion were being played with heavy rotation on the radio back then in the U.S. Most of the biggest bands such as the Beatles and the Rolling Stones were being played queit regularly over the radio.

  • @prkendora Thanks!

  • The film quality of this video is awesome!

  • This just represented what I considered the great new sound that was coming from Britain although I can't remember this group being heard in the States. I could be wrong on that but hey I was only 12 at the time. British music was like a breath of fresh air to America and it all started with the Beatles and just got better.

  • 60's Brum beat at its best.................

  • These guys are still doing the rounds - checkout their Face Book account - the Rockin Berries.

  • Trying to be the 4 Seasons I guess. Not bad.

  • anybody have the song let´s try again

    with the rockin´berries

  • Brilliant tune, thanks for sharing.

  • This is another good group, first time heared them. Thx.

  • i like this band

  • mooie opnames bedank

  • Rezo4000 down load ad sound recorder then just copy them off you tube in mp3

  • does anybody out there have an mp3 of this song? I can't find it anywhere and my only option seems to be importing their greatest hits (which is fairly expensive)

  • To Rezo4000: I recommend getting the Complete Collection CD and then rip it to your computer, or I-Pod, or whatever. There's always the chance that you'll love MORE songs by this band.

  • hiya i like this song i so them at whthaven civic hall

  • Where is the Rockin berries....CEM-TURKEY

  • this took me back to the 60,s and this great song. loved the video and I remember chuck who formed this group, many great memories of a great birmingham group. I met them in Redditch before they were famous and knew they would become great. Mary

  • This song has it all Jan and Dean Harmony. Spector wall of sound, and that good ole 60s twangy surf guitar. Its addicting cant get it out of my head. But every time I come back to it seems to disappear anyone know why?

  • Thanks for the posting. Unfortunately, you left out the incredible drum solo intro....
