The drummer on the fade out rules!!

This song entered the Billboard® Top 40™on 4/20 (ha ha!!) 1963...it was in the Top 40™ for 9 weeks, peaking at number 4. Scepter Records, catalogue number 1248.

When Archie Bell laughs as the bassist gets funky, that's the 1968 version of saying, "Yeah, that's the s#!t..."and when they "make it mellow", that's the musical version of an orgasm! Bonus points to Moraito for giving us the Lp version of this great soul classic.

This song entered the Billboard® Hot 100™ on May 8, 1971 at number 94, climbing each week: 74, 52, 44, 40 (June 5th)...then shot to 26...23, 20, 17, (for 2 weeks) peaked at 15, down to 27 (for 2 weeks), and finally down to 34 on August 7, 1971 before completely dropping out of the Hot 100™ the ne...

See this is why YouTube™is so great...I caught the last minute and a half of this version on a cassette off of the radio back in the '80s...I had ALWAYS told people there were TWO versions of this great song! Platinum award to davepinch1.

Now remember, she's NOT in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame...!

DaysOfBrokenArrows...it probably wasn't the "raised on the good book Jesus" part that the record company didn't like--more likely the lyric: " 'til I read betweeen the lines..." implying the hypocrasy associated with religion. Sombody please post Laura Nyro's "Capt. St. Lucifer"!!!

hermen2753...minus 5 cool points for the following error: Brook Benton did "Rainy Night In Georgia"...BRENTON WOOD did this song, "Gimme Little Sign" (Double Shot Records 116) in 1967.

You know you've all done this to your favorite song...and if you haven't, you should, so stop hating!

Jur4ssicPark...you're one of those lucky ducks who bought a copy of "Maybe you've been brainwashed too..." with the two bonus tracks...my copy only has twelve...but thanks for confirming that a 14 track copy exists!!

A mix with Stardust's "Music Sounds Better With You" MIGHT have saved this song, but otherwise....

*****Google "Allan Sherman Discography" for further info*****

Okay-- first of all, a tip of the hat and a golf clap to 45rpmONLINE® for an awesomely clear post of this tune!! My top 3 versions of this song are (in no particular order): The Ventures, KT Tunstall and, of course, The Ronettes!! Next, let's not forget to give tall props to the DRUMMER on KT'...

Yukimi's vocals on the Koop track "Summer Sun" is worth a listen, too...Waltz For Koop is the name of the CD, and it is pretty good.

This song should've been in the movie Kick-Ass...the intro would've made for a cool siren effect...but it DEFINITELY would've been cool in the scene near the end where Hit Girl is totally wrecking shop in D'Amico's office!!

eyzonm, I'd hang on to that tour book if I were you, because they're getting scarce!! The website MadonnaStore® has them listed for $380.00!! I saw this tour in Hampton, VA in May of 1985 and this book was $15.00--which is like $32.00 now, adjusting for inflation. Can you imagine what a late '...

This was a hit single with out the "drop ins" for various national affiliates, but I don't recall the name of the artist...

$350,000 (the amount buried under the Big W) adjusted for inflation, is about $2,200,000.00 in 2011 dollars, so I see why they were so eager to get it!!

Foccha, you lose...the FOURTH episode aired tonight (17 October 2011). Two best lines so far: the episode where the Russian waitress is having sex in the storeroom, Max is in the diner and a customer asks for the waitress just as she's having an orgasm, and Max tells the customer that "she's com...

Channel 10 WBIR in Knoxville, Tennessee...still remember hearing the "BONG" tone before "Here's Lucy" came on!! And you're right about the CBS Radio news--I have some CBS news radio airchecks, and the "BONG" is right there before the "duh-nuh-nuh-nuh -nuh--CBS News--I'm Paul Lockwood...

There was one with a reindeer with Christmas lights attached to his antlers; the background music in that one was cool...hope it gets posted soon...

Thanx 4 sending me the link...I like this beat...

NiceniceNICE thanks 4 turning me on to this!!

Ahh, the good ol' dependable '90s...I was a mobile DJ in those days and I used to mix this song into Tara Kemp's "Hold You Tight" and then into Wreckx-n-Effect's remix of "RumpShaker"...one seamless mix using Technics® SL-1200s...a good memory!! Also, the 12" cover of this record has a smokin' h...

A great live band!!! They had EXCELLENT sound techs---this sounds almost EXACTLY like the Lp version!! By the way that album "Cheap Trick" was recorded LIVE in the studio with almost NO overdubs...

This version runs a few seconds more than the 45 rpm version...nice!!

You definitely have a rarety; this Radar 2624 is "Teenage Twister" b/w "Graduation" by The Classmates from 1962. The Supremes songs "Your Heart Belongs To Me" b/w "(He's) Seventeen" should obviously be on a Motown label, catalog number 1027. You'd get more people to believe your story if we cou...

The background vocals were probably recorded in a separate booth because it was about this time in their career when Diana Ross started her diva phase and probably didn't wanna share a booth with Mary Wilson and Cindy Birdsong. An a capella version of this tune with backing vocals WOULD rule--bu...

Obviously, a later recording of this song...she's still got it though.
