[mistofoles]

[JOLENE2008]

[LightSnowOvernight]

cute ! 

[TheDsmyth]

a bit geeky lookin:):)..but always loved this song

[jonsilence]

Despite the big money he got from royalties, the writer of this song JD Loudermilk wasn't thrilled with any of the rock n roll interpretations of this hilbilly working class anthem.

[gazzymodo]

Yes, the 'TEEN'S' are English, originating from the Addlestone/Weybridge area in Surrey.

[gazzymodo]

A band sporting Two Lead Singers ! I love the way Ray Phillips and Arthur Sharpe move in unison as they sing ! Excellent Band who made Great Records !! Goodbye Google Eye...

I saw these fellas in March 1964 before they'd really made it. They were playing at Bloxwich - great little band with John Hawkins on piano i think.

'Ows about this then guys n gals'

Saw this lot (and had my pigtails pulled) at John Dalton College in Manchester.

...and of course every mother's favorite line- "why don't you kids go outside and play, I have to watch my stories" or "my stories are on"

[dolliegirlcat]

Just watched Sunday's "Mad Men" episode which closed with this great number! What a show! What a song!

[RemusRomulas]

Mad Men ending song at the premiere of season 4 god this song was a perfect fit and its ahead of its time.

[mercuriusdoble]

This was used as the end credit song for Mad Men's Season Four first episode tonight. I always loved this song besides The Animals version.

[gfm8959]

What are the girls screaming at??? Cute guys, of course!!!!! ... can be found in Beatles, Dave Clark 5, Herman's Hermits and other British invasion videos

I bought this at a grocery store for 49 cents in 1966. At 9 I leaned to play guitar with it within a few weeks. My brother was a Beatle nut but I thought this album was just as good. I wish I still have it....

[granamedia]

A great version, and I agree, check out Edgar Winter's version.

[chesterarebest]

haven't heard this since 1965...excellent song and duet. great piano also....doesn't date at all...

[DeanLisi]

great tune.. Listen to Edgar Winter's version and David Lee Roth's too..

[beefoneeto]

Great tune.Keyboard player John Hawkes joined The Strawbs in the 70's.

[varsityredheads]

My God, someone else remembers The Strawbs! By the way, what are the girls in the audience screaming at?

[mspossum]

Probably a large, lighted sign in the studio, saying "SCREAM."

[astromike07]

These British guys ROCK!!

[randomguyxx1]

@astromike07 Oh, they're British? Never knew that!

[phillydog17]
