The Raspberries-Nobody Knows 1972

From the album Fresh Raspberries, the guys play tribute to the Beatles in this song about lost love. Not a hit and I do not believe it was ever released as a single but I for one would love to go back in a time machine and cut it say about 1965! Enjoy!

I think that the this song would hold up in top 40 today as would alot of raspberries songs!

[garageband66]

I think so too. Could you not see Paul of the Beatles doing this and some others under a title of Beatle-like songs we wished we would have recorded?

What a great suprise to find this song on You Tube! I have always liked it even though it was never released as a single. I still have the first Rasberries album with the scratch & sniff rasberry sticker. My older sister used to hang out with the members of the Choir (predecessors of the Raspberries) in Mentor Ohio.

It's Cold Outside; the Choir and Cyrus Erie were great bands out of Ohio before members formed the Raspberries.

@garageband66 Actually they were the "Mods" before being forced to change the name. They played some great concerts at Mentor Shore and the Painesville Armory.

I have never heard that. That's why high-brow rock-n-roll graduates hang out at the tube.

I had a girlfriend break up with me in 1973, I played this song over and over back then...funny thing is she is in contact with me on Facebook and she regretted breaking up with me every day since. :)

Saw the Raspberries twice and bought all the music. Great group.

Thanks for posting this great song. I wish Eric Carmen would record more music. His voice and talents are missed

All the fans would like to think that this should have, could have, would have been a hit. The truth is that....no....it wouldn't have, couldn't have but should have been. Radio was too controlled and these guys cracked it even when it was damned near impossible with the sort of music they played. I give thanks that this band didn't mind the times, as they've outlasted many groups who out sold them record wise. Rock on.

For over a year these guys played every night largely doing covers of Beatle songs. What better preparation can a band possibly do while writing songs for their first album. They were hands down the best vocal band in the history of Cleveland Rock.

You are definitely right, we took the 70's for granted. We did not realize what a cool & unforgetting era we were in. Wish I could go back to relive it again. If you did not live in the 70's you will never understand!

[oldmantook1]

Just another reminder of the great music of the 70's that we all took for granted.

@45stalker

The Shoe & Twilley were GODS of power pop, just like Badfinger & The 'Berries

[gravics]

THAT was a great song and a great performance.

Thanks for the memories.

[hbrookes]
