I know and played bass with a famous rock guitarist that was on Shindig in 1965. I asked him why the song his band was singing was shortened- no last verse- he told me that they recorded LIVE, and incorporated any arrangement changes into the performance- like shortening, leaving a verse out- for the occasional TIME constraints of t.v.. When they performed on the show, they'd play the LIVE recorded track from earlier in the day, with LIVE vocals.

I am a New Yorker- Queens, to be exact- I bought all their singles, '65-'66. Love them, still do. They were the response, in a way, to the British Invasion, and thank GOD they were already making great music. R.I.P., Zal Yanovsky... Zal was a killer...this sounds as good as it did 46 years ago, (!) and that's amazing right there. These guys, The four Seasons, and and the Rascals, were THE quintessential New York City bands.

That '59 Les Paul...WOW I think that's the earliest video of someone in a 60's Band playing one. I'm wonderin' if Bloomfield had already traded for Dan Erlewine's 'Burst? 1965 is pretty early and I know Mike used a Tele at Newport with Dylan.
