1,2,3 Red Light by 1910 Fruitgum Company on Buddah LP record from 1968.

[pricla777]

I bought this 45 vinyl with my meager allowance when I was 11, about 100 years ago! Man, I'm old!

[desico]

Uploader...You are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!! Some Songs are Best as the Vinyl Versions. They are not reproduced correctly. I've tried it with better results, because even with my Originals, in the Studio & Live Performances, I'm a Perfectionist.Getting back to Vinyl, I Honestly believe that it has to do with the Vibration of the Stylus in the Groove that gives an Ambience & Resonance that can't be copied.I read something about it in a Music Mag. @ Recording way after I thought of that.So, we're right

[lrh1966]

@desico

You might be correct about that!! I don't know how the laser turntables sound as they don't have mechanical contact with grooves like a regular stylus, and they are quite costly to invest in for me at the moment!! My cousin feels the same way about cassettes in that the mechanical tape-head contact gives it the sound he likes. I hope they don't kill off all analog formats now that analog TV is gone, they are hinting at eliminating analog AM-FM radio as well...Friends, Lloyd.

[greasegun49]

I had completely forgotten this tune and the group. Is this where the term "Bubblegum Music" came from? Thanks much for the upload and the memories. Special thanks for keeping the "old" music alive.

[lrh1966]

@greasegun49

You are welcome, and I am not sure if this is the group where that Bubblegum phrase came from, but it was at the time the phrase started...Thank you for checking it out...Friends, Lloyd.

[joyfulls52]

@lrh1966 yes I believe it was one of the bubblegum

[teedammit]

+1 on the digital transfer. It always involves a remix that is 'cleaner and clearer', but seems to lose the character of the old vinyl, not to mention the AM radio vibe that most of us remember these songs by.

My parents, Sal and Bobbi Trimachi wrote this song in less than an hour in our apartment in Queens, NY. I was 6 or 7 yrs old. Too cool! Joe Trimachi.

Bubblegum rules! Real music died when the Bay City Rollers broke up.

[lrh1966]

@pennylaneproductions

Thank you for checking out this original 1968 LP version, and I agree with you in many ways about real music dying!!, there is not to much current music that gets my attention in a good way like it used to!!!...Friends, Lloyd.

Great finding this is still out there. I grew up with this very 45, and wish I could find the opposite side, which was the song Sticky Sticky.Thanks for the memories.

[lrh1966]

This was from their 1968 LP record...Thank you for listening to it here...Friends, Lloyd.

[makingsense53]

[lrh1966]

@sandran7121

That is almost what it appears to be?...More research to exact answer will be needed!...Friends, Lloyd.

[ECCRN1996]

This is the Ohio Express singing this...not 1910 Fruit Gum Company--I know--I have this on a CD...

[lrh1966]

@ECCRN1996

You might be correct??...But it is on the 1910 Fruit Gum Co. LP...Thank you for checking it out!!...friends, Lloyd.

[forgetaboutit55]

@lrh1966 Radio hit in the 60's was absolutly the 1910 Fruitgum Company's version. I'm sure The Ohio Express covered it, but it wasn't their radio hit.

[lrh1966]

@forgetaboutit55

Thank you for listening to it here!!...Friends, Lloyd.

[sandran7121]

@ECCRN1996

Thank You......It is Ohio Express..Because I own the Buddah Box record set

1910 Fruitgum Company sounds like Ohio Express because of "bubblegum" music.For their Yummy Yummy and Chewy Chewy

[lrh1966]

@sandran7121

This song looks to be a joint effort between both bands, and it resulted in a great 60's classic!!...Friends, Lloyd.

[methodistgirl]

I also remember a game we used to play with this song.

It went like 123 RED LIGHT 123 red light. and so on.

I was just 8 back then.

Thanks for posting this. . .

for my 9th birthday (September 1968), I got 4 brand-new 45, and they were "Hey Jude" The Beatles; "Bang-Shang-A-Lang" The Archies; "Harper Valley P.T.A. Jeannie C. Riley and "1,2,3 Red Light" 1910 Fruitgum Co. Today I hear one, I also think of the other three. Excellent records; I sure do miss those musical days. . .
