Mungo Jerry - In The Summertime ORIGINAL 1970

[holysaintspanos]

i wish it was as happy today as it was then

[Freespeech1776]

Good song, popular. 70 was one of the best years.

[FACIALPUNCHER101]

they all look like the chef from apocalypse now lol

[MrDjc1970]

Original Wolverine

[FederalReverse]

Tell me you can resist cupping a hand under your armpit and jamming along with them.

[robiandolo]

@FederalReverse great comment!

[2jzvolvo245dl]

thinking of you dad.



[jkgreenhaw]

Is that Wolfman Jack I thoght the same?

[MrAscona81]

@jkgreenhaw we grew up in the same zoo

[Wizoistneguteband]

Wolverine before he joined the X-Men

[fdlkfoo]

The guy on the piano looks a lot like Wolf Man Jack.

[sungodrah]

holy shit John Bonham playing guitar and blowing into that glass!! circa 70'....lol

[demetriarule]

What was that when all that facial hair was ok?

[ws74rq111]

Am I right in remembering this was a 33 rpm 7 inch stereo single ? The first ?.

Must go and have a look at it. ( It's in the loft with all my other vinyl ).

[MrPedamentina]

oh , my god!

[TheCPTRock]

this is the guy who listened to god's confession

[Cointwo]

@TheCPTRock amen

[Zeppelinguy666]

"What do you do for a living?"

"I blow raspberries into a bottle" - Twas a simpler time

[prettyspiffy616]

@Zeppelinguy666 Seriously made me LOL with this comment!! :)

[Zeppelinguy666]

@prettyspiffy616 Thanks :) I'm glad

[mahajohn]

Just imagining a crazed US infantry soldier singing this song as he works a flame thrower across a village hut in Vietnam, children running and screaming around him, while his buddy slices the throat of an elderly lady. God, I hate this song.

[slicknipper]

@mahajohn  dude you need some help seek it quick !

[mahajohn]

@slicknipper It's just a cinematic thought. Chill. Can't you see how perfectly nihilistic this song would sound when juxtaposed with scene of brutal, uncaring violence? I can't even believe that it didn't actually happen in some form or another; maybe not the literal scene I envisioned, but some variant. I mean, the song was popular at the height of the US war effort, so soldiers in Vietnam must have had it their heads, and at least one dude thought of it when engaged in murder.

[WTFyouDAMF]

@mahajohn I sincerely doubt someone's thinking of songs while shooting at people, its a pretty tense moment, one where people probably aren't just relaxing thinking of songs

[mahajohn]

@WTFyouDAMF I don't doubt your sincerity, but since you lack complete omniscience (wait...you're not Marvel Comics' The Beyonder, are you?) your opinion of this idea is completely irrelevant. It's well within the realm of possibility that my fictional scenario took place, and anyway, it would make for a great scene in one of those "stark potrayal of war" type movies. Jeez Youtubers! Try to engage in some creative thinking every once in a while! It's good for the mind!

[WTFyouDAMF]

@mahajohn since you lack omniscience then, how can you know that I lack omniscience?

[mahajohn]

@WTFyouDAMF That's a conundrum.

[WTFyouDAMF]

@mahajohn i knew you'd say that

[slicknipper]

@mahajohn are you a combat vet need help

[senfUNDketchup]

Not just the weather is high...

[Multi10086]

cool song

[TheCutthroatjake]

clearly the rainforest isnt all thats been destoyed

[BBMSKL]

I actually saw these live in 1971. It was very different from the run of the mill pop that was around at the time.

The performance was actually very good. Interacted very well with the fans, and all in the band (or Group as we used to call them "in the day") seemed to be really nice and genuine.

[McChodemuffin]

@SonicWaffleMan maybe their cocks have sideburns too??

[efimia9]

I love his oufit and the guy blowing into bottle lmao

[TheJimDandy1]

Best sideburns ever!

If I could grow those bad boys I would rock the shit out of them.

[NHLbrawler]

the guy playing the piano looks like a young wolfman jack and the singing the song actually looks like a werewolf....lol!!!

[wessexwyvern666]

Is it just me or is there a hint of Fred West about the lead singer?

[spentonmediocrity]

fun song,"If her daddy's rich take her out for a meal,if her daddy's poor do as you feel" ha ha maybe it was the inspiration for the Spongebob tune

[theoriginalbillholt]

There should be enforceable restrictions imposed on genetic experimentation.

[smukinfunt]

someone said he looks like morphius b4 he took the red pill lol... made me fuckin laff my tits off but nevertheless a timeless classic and a warning that that style can not i repeat not come back into fashion....love it !!!!!!!!!

[lakotasue]

glad

only the song is timeless and not the style!

[papagrimbow]

OH LAWD MUTTONCHOPS

[smolenskiii]

[etebas12]

[musikdjmix]

[ftsjr]

A terrific one-hit-wonder. I always thought that the lead singer looked a lot like Kareem Abdul Jabbar.

[Bertiemarmite1]

This whole line of comments has made me almost die laughing !!

[bhjvd01]

is that wolf man jack on the key board

[StumptownBoy]

@bhjvd01 Dude, I though the same thing as soon as I saw him and went to look at the lineup for the band. Doesn't appear to be him.

[MrBmxMark]

Yeeeeeeee wolverine!

[DD28925]

excelente



[bluecatky]

2:04 I always wondered how they made that sound that sounded like a care motor revving. I didn't realize it was a guy blowing into a jug.

[Bertiemarmite1]

@bluecatky HaHaHa HeHeHe

[MrToggolino]

Is.. is that... Steve-O??

[judeyorke]

Have a drink, have a drive.....lol....now ya know this is old but good!

[loop231]

He's rockin them mutton chops!

[drew55Z]

[1999Mikee]

Love this song. A very happy tune. Easy to listen to.

[SonicWaffleMan]

[THEFLUFFY1totheMAX]

[KUN5T0PAB13B0Mb]

Key to happiness: 1.make a new playlist with no songs except this. 2.add this song twice and turn on autoplay. 3. listen forever:)

[harryahmed420]

wolverines homo brother

[SantoRedentor]

Back in the days when facial hair was boss :)

[MVakulenko]

Vocalist looks like the greatest Russian poet Pushkin (wiki/Alexander_Pushkin)

[jackmeoffhard1]

[chilidawgism]

[longjonwhite]

Wolverines gay brother

[hansipons]

Another great song from our time. Only the best.

[Sverlo83]

[kabala19]

[TheSnowballEarth]

If only these folks had had Alan Price playing keys for them.

[woilem64]

i saw jerry in paris in 1989 i play alone whit guitar and percution in opene air festival very good show 

[Albacorewing]

I recall when it came out; this was about his only hit.

[jyma2011]

Quel beau souvenir!

[MissCat1958]

I was 11 when this song came out. Makes me think of hot southern summers running barefoot in the fields near our rental farmhouse, visits to the library and sitting under a tree eating granny smith apples and reading until Mom called me in for the night!

[omgwtfbbqalekx]

@MissCat1958 the sweetness of relation is righteous, well said.

[loatherd]

@MissCat1958 I know! Fuck, I can't believe i was around when this came out. Along with t rex and the rest of it.

[ricadrew]

Whatever happened to these guys?

[TheAfonsodj]

!!!

[pspiddy]

chh! chh-chh!, chh! chh-chh!

[85gslse]

@pspiddy UH!

[Demspissmeoff]

M.A.D.D would have this song banned today for the line "Have a drink, have a drive"... I'm NOT ADVOCATING DRUNK DRIVING, but there is way too much PCness in the world today. Bleeping idiots!

[BMWLDRider]

"Junk Yard Jerry"

For those of you who don't know what "Mungo" is.

[MrPav02]

@BMWLDRider You should look up and find out where Mungo Jerry got their name from.

[JHONN77]

JAJAJAJAJAJAAA

[The5Edie]

I can't imagine that exists someone who not like this song!

[steinwaygrande1]

@The5Edie When this was first released in the 1970`s many radio stations were banned from playing this, as it was considered very contraversial and full of sexual overtones with all the Uh Uh Uh and the rythm. How times have changed ! I still love listening to this

[5hinkuro]

holy shit, Wolverine had a good career before the military got a hold of him

[Nickelback2012exit]

SUMMERTIME ;D

[chaosrocks08]

Catchy and pleasant... Also possibly the gayest thing ever captured on video...

[6447912]

@chaosrocks08 The last part is bit controversial. But I agree with the first two. I do admit this might be the gayest "music video" (Village People does not count, they are too obvious).

[seriouslyfuckutube]

@chaosrocks08 lool you obviously havent seen the video to dancing in the street by david bowie and mick jagger.

[Wolfheart363]

truly fine!

[choroBR]

Não gostei, Amei!

[qixotical]

Wolfman Jack sez....if you put the lime in the coconut with the aid of a a little green bag in the summertime, you shall be healed with awesome vintage facial hair. Ahh-Ohhh, Werewolves of SOR.

[pistoleirovelozpsn]

Like a Boss

[hoplite46]

perfect rhythm to sh*g to

[steinwaygrande1]

@hoplite46 Agreed. I use to shag a bird to this back in those days - just one of thoe songs that was so appropriate in those days. Now am married and a grandfather to two - one boy and a girl. brings back memories :-))

[hoplite46]

@steinwaygrande1 Happy days

[hoplite46]

skinny levis, chest hair and beards very cool

[TheDonz1943]

[AMonteiro2501]

MUY LINDA CANCION LA RECUERDO DE MUY JOVEN CAMINO A LA PLAYA CON MIS AMIGAS.

[GUIDOBRAT]

.

but that STILL doesnt answer the question : WHY did Ray Dorset steal Englebert Humperdinck's sideburns ??? lol

[ekocentric]

@GUIDOBRAT Side burns were supposed to have gotten their name from Northern civil war general Burnsides who wore the wide sideburns.

[TheJiggsCasey]

Excellent quality and a great song. Thanks for sharing, I posted it...in February.

[lukavarga1]

[capitolemiproducer]

Those are the biggest pork chops I have ever seen even 42 years later

[SeattleLA]

I heard this on KFRC San Francisco, early 1970s, more times than I could possibly count. Nice little ditty, but I could never understand its high radio play.

[KimTreize]

From Norway at -15C: Summer forgive me!!!

[ogrebattle22763]

[don182004]

[SDJrekoff]

[nickbdude4]

the lead singer looks like a werewolf in mid transformation

[wtbrownual]

@nickbdude4 lol yep he does thats funny

[TheVoiceofresistance]

Wolfman, is that you?

[jehrkth]

The lead singer looks like a cross between Wolverine from the X-Men,and Juan Epstein from Welcome Back Kotter!

[TiaReturnz]

lol one of the singers in this band is dappy's dad! no joke hahah 

[LindseyAndDexter]

 ray dorset is too adorable in this footage!

[42STUKA]

No joking: the singer is the original Mr. Hyde from 1931.

[zipsrule]

What a bunch of mooks!

[rcc98239]

Is that Wolfman Jack on Keyboards? Man this takes me back to Summertime riding my Stingray!

[xnet0123]

tis the best song in 1970 and now

[scorpiodave65]

This dude give Ian Paice of Deep Purple some serious competition with those sideburns!

[jakemewilson]

These guys understand facial hair

[Hudmart]

[MrMikeb1958]

@ekocentric I think you are right! Have a good one! :)

[FrostBlg]

why is he blowing the bottle ?

[sjnagele]

@FrostBlg for the same reason he plucks a string on a guitar or presses a key on the key board......it makes a noise.

[tanabotaturisan]

何十年ぶりにこの曲を聴けて、心ときめいております。しかし、な­ぜ、tokioの長瀬がもみ上げを生やして、うたっているのかな­ぁ～？
