Outsiders - Time Won't Let Me - 45 rpm

[allenrizzi]

This was my song in high school and still one of my favorites. Although crudely produced by today's standards, it has an energy rarely found in any music

[FarnhazenBrep]

Lovely. Lovely. Lovely. This song exists as a part of my earliest pop awakenings. Part of the gestalt, if you will... The squealing horns are the key element for me.

[MsOldierock]

good beat

[wfarrar69]

awesome song!loved it when i got a copy of song in 1975.replaced it in 1990 when the 45 was wearing out.an a+ hit.do today's music get an A+? not many in the pop music(if any at all).

[lowry5670]

Great, great song. I had the privilage of living the "60's". What a great era for music and TV but I would miss the remote control. LOL

[jeffk228]

NotGuilty.... EYE bought this in '66, also. I still have mine...... Rock on !!

[movetherunner]

The very first record I ever bought

[jennettswan]

One of my all-time favorites! When they recorded this, the core musicians were there. The brass instruments were layered over later.

[rogerrrubin]

great song...where are all the views......man, this is one of the top 100 oldies of all time.

[notguilty75]

This is the 45 I bought back in 66. Left it in the back of the car and it warped.

[KaptKan1]

Summer of '66 we'd be driving around on hot nights with songs like this on the radio turned up as loud as it would go, a carful of us crazy kids singing along at the top of our lungs... It was fun.

[FlyboyLWB]

great song good memories

[Acerfan2010]

Love the oldies, greatest hits ever.

[loungerenownrecords]

One of the GREATEST pop/rock songs ever written,recorded,performed

live EVER! It brings me as much joy as it did in 1966!

[stewmacman]

this is kate middleton's song!!!

[brownindian17]

RIP Tommy King

[grickard319582010]

Great classic! Certainly better than the 'music' being released today!

[SPORTSNUTIM]

I remember in the 60's the TV's looked like tanks with them funny protruding metal rods. : )

[nodrogkj]

Oh, SportsnutIM, now you've gone too far. TV in the 60s was no better than the drivel we get 50 years later -- Only the producers and writers couldn't get away with the junk that the current crop does.

I used to listen to this song on WKNR Keener 1300 and WKFR Keener 1400 in Michigan -- great boogie music!

I wonder if this song was written in response to the 1950s ballad, "(If it takes forever,) I will wait for you."

[MaceMn]

If they don't play this tune in heaven then I don't wanna go.

[Capcoor]

@MaceMn Lord,he doesn't really mean that.

[rickyrosan]

First time I discovered this song was in the sound track of Time Cop. I love this song and there are so many versions of it. But definitely this is my favorite and it was nice to hear it after all those years. I wonder if this is the original because the others didn't have the same complete orchestra sound.

[whopfrog2]

@rickyrosan This is the version that received airplay on am radio back in 1966. Thanks for listening.

[spacepatrolman]

@whopfrog2 a radio hit a lot of airplay but nobody bought it like black is black who would buy this record it it annoying listen to gene pitneys version its funny

[JimmyRockster]

@rickyrosan

This is the original. It came out in the spring of 1967.  I was just home from Vietnam and they appeared in a Rock'n'Rroll show at the kentucky State Fair I attended. All the orchestration was missing from the "live" performance of course.

[rickyrosan]

@JimmyRockster Thanks for the info.

[GBProm69]

What a tune! I've had this on vinyl for about 20 years but couldn't play. Finally managed to track it down on CD

[SPORTSNUTIM]

I'd rather listen to classic music like this one and others than watch TV.

[whopfrog2]

@SPORTSNUTIM Same here. TV was a lot better in the 60's too, even though there weren't many channels or remote controls.

[rockabillycat1954]

@whopfrog2 They had remote controls on the really expensive tv's, especially Zenith color floor models.

[laylacalif]

@SPORTSNUTIM Right on! I've got the TV on mute and listening to these classics on YT.

[thinkimfallin66]

It's 6:17 on WKYC with your leeeeeader Jackson Armstrong, Tommy King and Sonny Geraci's Outsiders fifth week in a row at number #1 .... one of the very best of all time.

[ringo244]

What a great song & don't forget Respectable that song rocks too

[stephadelic]

music couldnt get any crisper than that

[mixmusic11]

Nothing souds like the good old vinyls. NOTHING.

[babyzach2012]

it's so amazing that you find people your age on these channels!

[rogerrrubin]

@babyzach2012 1966 was only a few day ago!

[asl126]

@rogerrrubin I got a very weird question, one that requires imagination. take a look at the swirling capitol logo, does the orange and yellow remind you of grilled cheese and tomato soup?

[rogerrrubin]

@asl126 no, but it does look like egg nog that I swirl into my bloody marys

[youngmindedman]

@babyzach2012  how close are You to my age, 73?

[fastguned]

I just love the sax and the trumpet on this song, especially at the end, they're perfect., not too much but just at the right times. Wow.

[rockola63]

Back in the old days of KRTH-FM in Los Angeles, when they played a mix of currents and oldies, this used to be a great top of the hour ID record. Sounded killer coming out of the top of the hour ID. Still one of my 3 all time favorite records.

[babyzach2012]

@rockola63 mine to LOL!

[russryder0360]

A great tune that will last forever. Watched the videos of the guys. Where is the organ player? Is he the one throwing clothes from behind the set?

[electrickithara]

Brings back cool memories.

[easytimgc3]

Great quality for a 45 from the 60s! Thanks!

[MysticSojourner]

@easytimgc3 Here! Here! This is the best audio of the tune on YouTube. Thank you, whopfrog2!
