Wow.. that Mary Weiss sure was a super hottie! I feel sorry for the boys going through puberty around the time she was on TV all the time. Probably cried themselves to sleep every night because she wasn't their girlfriend hahah!
Damn it, I wasn't even born around this clip, and I'm falling in love Mary Weiss right now!!! She is sooooo damn cute, just wanna kiss her all night long!
So young, so talented, so beautiful.. I'm still in love almost fifty years later. I like their cover of this tune better than some of the original work the girls did...but then, "I'm still digging James Brown"(a tip of the hat to The Tower of Power).
This isn't bad. I didn't think Lloyd Thaxton clips existed!
Lulu's version is the definitive, but the Beatles did a good job with it as well, especially when all four of them swapped lead vocals (the only time to my knowledge that they ever did that on a song).
The Shangri-Las were a hard working girl group.Sure got better entertainment back then and the groups didnt charge an arm and leg to see them. Its crazy what all of the big stars make. Way out of reach.
wow she des have a nazal voice but they gr8..i nicked me mums cd of this hahahahaha......ptty how back then i suppose money they didnt get much unlike today where tey get 50% of the cut.gr8 band.
I do not know where you get your info.But Mary and Liz(aka Betty) the last remaining members of the Shangri-Las told me that this was not their last performance but a early one.Just passing on the info from the people that would know.
andypoo: I think the sound and video might be out of sync in the transfer online. The backing vocalists don't jump at the "right time" either, so it seems more of the video's problem than the actual performance
lol at the man in the beginning

Chilling. This is...outrageous. Now I realize that was normal as a kid, were the heydays in postwar music history. What a voice.
