[Kenasuri]

Really good, David, this is the spirit. I wonder if you've seen some of your songs released by a record producer or sung by a known artist. If the answer is yes, great!, if not, what a great waste!!!!

[A297MAN104]

@Kenasuri Thanks so much P.J. No..nothing released by any major of any description....I keep Hoping (which sounds a good title for a song)....Really appreciate your kind words and encouragement.....Regards...Da­ve

@naomi1986oka Thank you...regards...Dave

[mre2u2]

Or maybe Neil Diamond.. as he sang in "Coming to America"

[A297MAN104]

@mre2u2 Had a few suggestions that the song would suit Neil Diamond...which I tend to agree with....Just wish the man himself would as well.......Regards...Dave

[mre2u2]

You should contact a record producer for this one. Excellent job

[A297MAN104]

@mre2u2 Thank you..appreciate your kind comment...I've sent the song to Publishers/Artiste Managements, received a few compliments, but no interest by recording artistes. That's the music industry.....Have a great weekend...Regards...Dave

@James0022ify Thanks very much James...Appreciate you taking the time to look and listen....and for your kind comments.....regards.....Dave

[jimsmailbox]

Really enjoyed your video here Dave. Although I was only 6 back in 63 I still remember it well & cherish the era. I'm sure much of my cherished admiration for the era comes from living vicariously through my 5 older siblings who ranged from 16 to 9 but I have many clear memories of a freedom much more affluent & people less devided... Love to share my recently published book with you , The Benefit of Light: A Collection of Poems, Quotes, Stories & Letters of Inspiration find it on Facebook

[A297MAN104]

@jimsmailbox Many thanks Jim.....appreciate your kind comments and you taking the time to look and listen....It was a wonderful era....and so lucky to be part of......and coming from Liverpool where The Beatles were 4 lads who lived up the road, round the corner and went to the same school as your friends...Just wonderful....

I'll see if I can check out your book.....regards.....Dave

[AislinnWildrose]

Oh yes it was !! Super job capturing that incredible time of the 60s. Your having been in the midst of it, especially through your splendid songwriting, and now combined with your video creation talent, makes this an especially wonderful contribution to music lovers everywhere. Thank you for sharing !!

[A297MAN104]

@AislinnWildrose Many thanks Aislinn...appreciate your kind and generous comments...and for taking the time to look and listen....Have a great week.....Regards....Dave

[PlayForMeASymphony]

I remember this song....I loved it then....Looking back....I love it just as much, now, as I did in 1963......Truly an incredible song....

[A297MAN104]

@PlayForMeASymphony Thank you...much appreciated....regards.....Dav­e

[madlovescats2]

[A297MAN104]

@madlovescats2 Thanks for listening and you comments..Your friend won't have heard this before..as I didn't write the song until 1999...but the song is about happy memories of the 60's....I'm glad she liked it anyway...Regards...Dave

[1970GWB]

Beautiful pictures, good times.

No doubt the 60's and 70's were much more creative.

Excellent melody and arrangement.

Why it's so difficult to write good music today ?

Everything seems so spontaneous and natural.

Very good!

[5hutterbug]

Thanks, Dave. I did enjoy it. At first, when I saw the title, I thought it was going to be something like Simon and Garfunkel's 'Time it was', but I was pleasantly surprised. As I said, I was with Faron then: I was his road manager. That was back in the days when being a road manager meant just that: not being a roadie, or part of a crew, as it seems to be these days. It was fun, then. A great time was had by pretty well all of us.

Best regards ever,

David Conlin

[A297MAN104]

@5hutterbug Cheers Dave....Yes..Road Manager was a prestigious position with a group back then....doing all the talking and arranging while the group were on stage playing. A lot of Road Managers went on to become big names in the business...especially when 'their' group started to/and hit the 'big time'.

Wonderful days and times...and very happy memories....Best Wishes.....Dave

[5hutterbug]

Takes me back. I was working for Faron then

[A297MAN104]

@5hutterbug Seems like yesterday......I was in The Topics in 1963....see photo at the end of the Video...Members were...Dave Stevens, Dave Cullen, Brian Newman (Singer), Roger Wilcox, Johnny State.

Hope you enjoyed it.....Regards....Dave

[eyzndasky]

What a wonderful featured video for an intro to a channel! "Oh, what a time it was..." is a great way to describe the entire decade of the 60's. We did kind of live for today and those days (and the other decades) flew by all too quickly. This is an awesome video which revives a lot of memories of youth, fun, love, music, hurt, turmoil, etc. Fantastic song, vocals & video composition!
