just saw Herrman's Hermits at Niagara Falls Avalon Theatre - Peter Noone has hardly changed in over 34 years!

Check out the original on YOUtube - they really butchered the song for whatever reason.

A note for today's young adults - I am baby boomder born in 1946. I was watching TV the night Bobby Kennedy died. In a split second the bright tomorrow most of us were sure was coming turned dark and cold and mostboomers gave up their ideals and became the cynical people that have prtoduced the w...

We've seen the Searchers several times at Casinos in Ontario - there are only 2 originals left but they still sound great and put on a memory filled show.

These guy were much bigger in England than they ever were in North America - PITY

Try changing just a few words and suddenly a 40 year old song applies to roday - scary.

A very bleak yet possible view of mankind's future - if you don't get its message - you probably prefer "bubble gum music."

If anyone is interested the information I have on the Staccattos was that they were a "garage" band from Ottawa.

I still have my 'Best of Sam Cooke" album with jacket intact and in good shape. He was one of the few who completed for the record dollar in Canada in the summer of 1964 against the Beatles and held his own. A great talent.

I hadn't seen the versionI on the ned of this clip for many years ago - It waas a special (possibly PBS) about Rick Nelson and the "travelling part - the boat and airplane etc was done by Ozzie Nelson and was presented as the first real "rock & roll" video. The special was narrated I believe by ...

Too bad thw video maker got his airplanes mixed up - Snoopy's doghouse was as every Peanuts follower knoew, a Sopwith Camel bi-plane and Von Richtoffen's plane was as alway historically a Fokker Triplane painted bright red. Who knows where that Spitfire at the start came from.

I was 13 when Iheard the news on the radio - most people forget just how big star's Richie Valens and Buddy Holly - it was like loosing 2 Justin biebers of today.

The most popular body mod on Southern California Stingrays (especially 1963 to 1965 was to remove the backup- lights; replace them with tailights and then add 2 more inlight inboard next to the licence plate - giving a total of 3 per side = "6 tailights" I even still have a copy of the magazines...

I have a Petersen Publishing Ford book from 1970 and they refer to the SONHC 427 as "legendary".

I often wonder what would have happened if NASCAR had backed down on its ban for the SOHC the way it backed down on the Hemi - but then MOPAR was in deep financial difficulties and Ford wasn't.

Best factory hot rod ever built.

Makes me think of my high school sweetheart - we met in 1965 when she was only 13 yet the thrill is still there - we just celebrated New Years 2011 and she still gives me the "...pounding in my brain..."

Chrysler always meant for the hemi (Firepower and Desoto Firedome) as big V-8's with 2 four barrel cards right up untildiscontiuned in 1959 - 4 years later when the "new" hemi came out it had 2 fours & posted performane the new 392 Hemi with fuel injections etc has a hard time equalling.

A ewchical design of the Hood sent her to the bottom and have Johnny Horton a song.

Actually this was a world war 1 problem never corrected - the Hood's powder magazines had poor protection and when the Bismark's shells hit the hood, she blew up' The Hoo'ds loss of all but 3 of her crew was avoid...

There is one original Searcher - we see them every couple of years at Casino Rama in Ontario, Canada and they are excellent - they have weathered the years well.

I bet the same sick people who caused Coke to cancel the polar bear cans objected to the way the bottle caps are just flipped off - littering the landscape and that's why it was banned.

My point about this song is that it is a CHILDREN's - a musical fairy tail - it should not be the name for a very efficient killing machine. However it is now associated forever with the C-130 Gunship - too bad - no one had a similar urge to call the Huey gunship "Mini Puff" - the Huey had its...

Best way to hear this is to imagine a real T-Rex Dinasaur moving and groving toout T-Rex. the beat - try thinking of it an I'm sure you'll see in your imagination one way

We should listen to the words - a condemnation of how humans have screwed up the world's ecology for our children and our chidren's children.

Once ecology is damaged beyond recovery - the world iis uninhabitable. THAT is the message - the world was Paradise and we human are so petty we forced ...

The whole problem is the first line of the song - men who jump and die - why must we assume the Green Berets are born to die in War?? Seem like a death wish rather than an ideal to live for.

Boomers from the 60's all considered the Seekers and Judith in particular as the "romantic" side of the 1960's offsetting the ugly assasinations of the Kennedys. Martin Luther King and the Viet Nam conflict - the decade would have been ugly except for the Seekers.

If you think this is good - check them out doing Elusive Dreams - so very, very true and when you think about it it will break your heart - their very, very best song together,

I often wonder if anyone really appreciates the Byrds harmonies and listens to the passioante words of Bob Dylan.

This is a powerful song for change IF anyone listens to it.

So beautiful - Roger Miller a genius for writing it and Nana Mouskouri masterful the way she sings it.

I can`t believe those heartless, stupid people who creiticised Coke for their polar bear cans - its been a tradion for many years. Coke should be praised!

This song is not so much an Anti-War song as it is a commentary on the needless waste of young men's lives

The Byrds always do Dylan better than Dylan

And for defending the American "RIGHT" of Free Speech, the Smothers Brothers had their show cancelled for allowing groups like the "Hello People" to express a Non_Corporate America point of view. It was a shameful attempt to gag free speech - Canada is no better; if you take a minority the establ...

The Byrds do Dylan better than Dylan

A great love song - Lobo does it perfection!

Best song ever in favour of PEACE - right up there with John & Yoko's "Give Peace A Chance"

It sad that he had to do this song. In my youth I saw thousnads on AMerican young men dying far away in the jungles of Viet Nam for no good reason at all - they accomplished nothing and now 40 years later hundreds of Canadians and thousands of Americans had died once again half a world away from ...

Song reminds me constantly of my childhood best friend - a sad but very true story "Elusive Dream"

R.I.P Howie - you never found what you were looking for all your life.

The forgotten "HEMI" - they called it a firedome and it died with Desoto but the firepower lived on to fight another day - right up to the present,

Hemi's forever!!! They still show the foreign cars who really was boss. Good old AMerican Musles - with 2 -4's on them unbeatable!!

I had a 64 identical to this one - color, same interior BUT no 427, Just a 289, chrome reverse wheels, ai inuduction (no upper beam headlights as she could run really good. I still think very fondly of my 64 Failance Coupe.

These two were so good together - their music is Hazelwood's memorial
