I really like this band. And ---- check out how they keep their instruments! Really high up. Another band from the cold, I mean Cool, country up in the north was THE ZETTLERS. Listen to their version of "Skinnie Minnie" and "Beautiful Delilah". Unbelievably Great!!!
The music miracle from Sweden must have begun as early as the mid 60s.
The Shanes var troligen det bästa popbandet på sextiotalet i Sverige. Åtminstone så länge Staffan Berggren var med. När han slutade började resan utför . . .
Banden på 60-talet gjorde "arrangemanget" bättre än nuförtiden. Nutidens band sätter mikrofon vid trummorna, något som "överröstar" gitarr, bas och sång ofantligt mycket. Här används bara trummorna som takt och inget annat.
F. ö. så är det svårt att säga vilka som är bäst. Tages och Shanes ligger väldigt balanserat mellan varann. Hep Stars är inte lika bra. Om Andersson, Lagerberg, Grahn och Ulvaeus hade startat band, skulle de nog blivit ett av de bästa.
Hej! I luv this song and have a cd of 60s Swedish bands: "Searchin' for shakes..." that this song is on and it's totally awesome and a lot of the songs are as fab as what the Brits were doing at the time also I have Swedish ancestry in my family tree! Tack sa mycket!
Nice to see that my first Shanes favourite song exists on video after all these years. It was probably around 1963 or 1964 when I first as a 8or 9 years old heard it, Ï think on the swedish top 10. I still have their first LP (without the former lead singer in the video).
Frankly The Shanes didn´t compose that many top class songs but they were OK for those days, being one of the pioneers in the early pop music era in Sweden of the 1960ies.
do not stop reading this if you want to live. i am summer i am 15 years old and i died in a severe burning 33 years ago. if you do not copy this comment on five other videos i will kill you and make you suffer the same way i did. I'm not telling you when. and if you don't believe me. well i guess you're gonna have to find out yourself.

no need for longer straps? they just aren't needed for rocking these absolute mod beats.

If they would have come to the states, they could have bought longer guitar straps. We had alot of them back in the 60's.

Sounds like the Turtles turned this into "Almost There". Great one.
