  • This grouping of Drifters were very good! These guys were so incredibly SCREWED OVER by the Treadwell family... THESE Drifters were Johnny Moore's pride and joy.. Now because of some legal BS, the Turney-Lamarr-Bynoe-Alan group is no longer allowed to call themselves the Drifters and in their place are 4 piss-poor singers picked by Treadwell... and that group can't keep a solid line-up for more than a year... it's trash and unfair to THESE much more talented individuals

  • got the dvd and cd but i know the line up has changed since again but the songs are timeless

  • These Drifters are all direct relatives if the orginal Drifters line up, Saw them a few years ago with an orginal Drifter there but not performing.

  • This song is well known in the old party days in New Zealand.

  • is that rohan as lead singer?hes such a great guy!!.

    i was back stage with them a fair while back when the great johnny moore was still with us(sorry even greater guy).

    unlike most groups/bands their hearts are in the music and they really care about the people who are listening.

    the legacy has been passed on! thanks guys

  • I'LL GIVE THESE GUYS AN A + ON THIS SONG. GOOD JOB GUYS

  • miss you guys so much your fantastic

    saw the other drifters at the beck and they weren't a patch on youi

    what name do you perform under now ? and will you return to the beck theatre in hayes ?

  • Pure Joy !

  • The Drifters are just brilliant!!:-)

    Enjoyed dancing to this record a few weeks ago at a family 18th Birthday party:-) Sounds as good now as when I first heard it:-)

  • love this song me lol

  • does anyone know what these lot are doing now?

  • what happened to these guys

  • Brilliant ! say no more...

  • Love this song! I saw the Drifters many times in the early and middle 60's before they did this song. Ben E. King was the lead singer when I first saw them many moons ago!

  • These are really good, having fun and I bet the audience were. More than can be said for the ones doing the rounds now!

  • i love this song...

    n love this group ther great...x

  • I'm 30 years-old and my parents loved "beach music", in fact, they still do. But they played this and a number of other songs every time we went to the beach when I was a kid. For some reason, it popped into my head today on the way home from work and I had to look it up. It's still great! Long live the Drifters!!

  • i remember my dog ues to go mad to this song lol

  • This is GREAT!

  • 1st Class Live Performance

    Superb

  • When I lived in newcastle upon tyne in 1970s to 1990s I use to see them at mayfaire an night club in newcastle every

    new year when there play there now the club has gone I never seen them again

    aport for yourtube brng back the past ?

  • Poor Johnny Moore, died penniless thanks to Faye Treadwell's awful management. She pretty much 'owned' Johnny and he knew it. He was the voice of the Drifters but she owned the name Then after he died she abandoned the name, these guys continued touring with the Moore family's blessing, Treadwell sees a market, sues for the name and wins. WHAT A TRAVESTY! Pete, Rohan, Patrick & Vic worked hard to build their reputation, they sold out venues...then along comes TREADWELL!!!! UGH!

  • i couldnt agree more! its awful! the Treadwell drifters are crap! Gutted these guys arent performing anymore!

  • We went to see the so called officials last night but not impressed at all. These are by far more talented and entertaining!!

  • Great song, great version. Just saw the new 'official' Drifters in B'ham (UK) They were OK but not a patch on this group!

  • Perfecto Mondo,love this song.

  • this was a glasgow shuffles disco anthem 19-79,

  • LOVE the Drifters. Would love you guys to listen to MY VERSION of an old number !! oh and comment pleeeez

  • this was my fav song when i was

    5 and i'm 15 and it's still my

    fav song *blushes*

  • I am 36 and this was my favorite song at 5! You are an "Old Soul" me too ---we were born too many years too late!!!!! R U a NC girl that shags? I love my beach music

  • prestatyn tonight,,,,,,,,,robinhood..

  • Perfecto Mondo,Bravo.

  • yeah i agree with you, i would love to see this group again.

  • i'm only 13 and i find theese guys so amazing! i went to see them last year and they rocked! :D

  • Perfecto mondo

  • The Drifters date back to the early 50's with Clyde McPhatter and Ben E. King asoriginal lead singers and there are maybe 10 touring groups using the name but what the hell..it's great music...enjoy

  • Saw them at the Crest Club in Leysdown in 89, Johnny Moore was still with them, awesome!

  • a family fav always have always will solul singers will allways skip a heart beat when thease perform

  • Some good old Myrtle Beach shag music....thanks

  • hey ro, thank you for the big smiles you just gave me. you're something else you know that!? sending love from the mountains, john

  • Totally brilliant !!!!!!!!!!!

  • nice one, been looking for this tune for years. thats a big ten four good buddy

  • ive seen these a few years ago!!! the lead singer here is PHITTTTT!!!

  • wow great 100/100 thanks holly

  • i saw these in the wyvern theatre in swindon a couple years ago. absolutely brilliant front row seats they are so frendly shook hadns with all of them

  • Its so unfair what has been done to these guys,the uk now has 4 guys no one knows and none of them have ever been a part of the drifters!!For me and many others the guys in this video will always be the proper drifters.

  • me and my mum so agree with you! we need to find them and get them back together and we'll give them a new name:)

  • They have a new name...they are called DFour

  • I have seen these 4 guys 5 times in Leeds, bradford and York, UK....I fell in love with Rohan after taing my mum to see them, then waiting for a pic with them...he now remembers me when i see him after the shows, and I have my treasured pics with him!!Can't believe they have to change names!! They are always so passionate about past "Drifters" and i saw the 50th anniversary tour where they said they will keep going! LOVE U ROHAN!! XX

  • Hello. I am from Denmark. I saw these wonderful guys in 2007. It was a fantastic concert! After the concert we meet Peter in Holstebro and spend some funny times with him in town.

    I don´t like those new guyes! I have seen them a few weeks ago and were dissapointet!

    I have to see those guyes in the video again. I want to bye CDs and DVDs. Can anybody help me?

  • to claireonetreehill,

    Where did you hear about the tour later this year, is this under the name Dfour? do u have any details

  • saw these guys yesterday under the new name of DFour,good show as usual. They are now apparantly on tour but can't find any venues, dates or website for them. Does anyone have any info

  • Can anybody tell me if these guys are the ones managed by Faye Treadwell? If so then they should have the legal right to the name "The Drifters" They are really good. I just saw a video of these Drifters along with

    Procol Harum's Gary Booker (A World of Love). This is the BEST video I've seen this year. I wish we could see more performances of this caliber in the US.

  • Can you believe that owing to a legal mess up and despite 20 years or so performing together as the Drifters these guys are no longer able to use that name?! We love them and have seen this line up about 12 times. Believe they are now renamed 'DFour' - if anyone knows where we can see them then please post here! No other so-called 'Drifters' will compare...

  • These guys did an amazing version of "Stand By Me" when i saw them.. a kind of gospel version. I loved it, i wish i could hear it again!

  • the drifters are fantasic,love there songs, just had letter for the xfactor going up to london for audition on the 26th of may 2008 hope to be singing saturday night at the movies,hope to get though look out for me antonio wish me luck thank you

  • Bloomin Brillinat!! I think these guys are fantastic and never get bored of listening to them! Have seen them perform 4 times and im going to their final show as the drifters at the end of May, can't wait! More videos need to be put on you tube of these guys! Rohan, Patrick, Peter and Victor RULE!!! xx

  • Their final show as the Drifters? why's that, these guys are fantastic, dont say theyre stopping performing as the Drifters

  • are you connected to the Drifters?

    I have one thing too say, COME TO PETERSFIELD! We need this sort of talent!

  • Very good but what Drifers are these????

  • Hello, thanks for your message.

    This is the Drifters: Rohan Delano Turney, Peter Lamarr, Victor Bynoe and Patrick Alan

    They were asked by the longest serving member ever - the late but great Johnny Moore to carry on the legacy....they are now endorsed by both the MOORE family and one of the main songwriters of the hits Roger Greenaway...

    Hope this helps

  • Oh ok..so they are based in England then?

    As long they are endorsed by the Moore family thats cool and they aren't just a floating bunch of phonies!! Like I said, they are very good, good to hear Johnny's songs being carried on

  • great video went to see them brillant

  • Brilliant thank you for posting

  • Great song ,and dance tune love shirls

  • Fantastic, been to see them at least 4 times always first rate, they are on tour later this year, I'm buying tickets cause they are well worth the ticket price, plus rohan is totally gorgeous xx claironetreehill xx

  • Quality Quality Quality

  • I have saw these before and thought they were brilliant! xx

  • very nice beautiful singing thank you

  • I have the DVD of this show and it is absolutely fantastic. This line up pays a great tribute to Johnny Moore throughout the concert which is a very nice touch to it.

  • Cheers for your message...we are getting some great feedback on the DVD. We also released a CD which is out now in the UK too...thanks
