@bobyoung53 no i`ts a framus star bass like a bill wyman

Why Pick on Me almost has a Polka beat, but then the chorus is so evocative of the 60's that it almost hurts, it's like two different songs stuck together.

@lancelot1953 No kidding, this is our modern museum of our life's musical history. I'm all for giving the artists and technical people their due (royalties), but my God if they're not paying them than screw The Man.

Righteous guitars.

Brilliant miming from Dickie :)

Thanks for sharing this. the Standells are my fave of all the classic punky garage bands. what a joy to see this clips in great quality. Cheers to beyondthebeat.

To bad this is all lip syncing....

The Hoolywood palace show is responsible for some great 60s footage. Thanx for posting.

The singers voice reminds me of Mick Jagger and kind of George Harrison.



It is sad that unfortunately, this has become "the American Way" - Instead of spreading the memory of these great groups, lets WMG's legal staff spend their energies going after such videos and the people that enjoy them. This is a part of our history, how about taking our national anthem off the air or charging for listening to it while we are at it.

Fuck WMG.. these guys never got paid the proper royalties in the first place, and now you're screwing with the fan base that keeps them popular (after all these years)
If it wasn't for people like us , you would make no money off of bands like this..throw us a bone corporate schills!!!
