Is there a live version of this anywhere that isn't lipsynched? I've always thought the rhythms on this were cool, too and they don't even fake a drummer here.

@Binaurals02 The closest you get is their performance on Shindig, which might be live vocal and pre-recorded background.

@sltomsik Yes , she wrote it in the early sixties I believe

[sltomsik]

Lead singer had a magnificent voice. Did Sylvia Fricke (Ian and Sylvia) writer this song?

[takfam07]

They don't bother to make strong, unequivocally great songs like this anymore.

@Binaurals02 I don't believe they had a drummer, just a session drummer. Also, if you think...We Five were, FIVE. If they'd had a drummer in the band it would mean changing their name to, We Six?

@unclebobunclebob It was never that anyone thought it a good idea, it was due to rulings by the Musician's Union both here in the United Kingdom and America. So, it wasn't out of choice, most performers were happy to play live, it's just that they weren't allowed to by the MU.

I like her boots.

@gadinsabi No, it's from Bob Hope show, so he's the one doing the intro. We Five were never on Ed Sullivan Show.

@neverhit17 That voice intro was Ed Sullivan. The music impresario who brought us the British invasion every Sunday night and lots of other GREAT acts when TV had 3 channels

@nagilla - you're right about the intonation aspect of the Hofners, but they play fast, they're light, and they have a distinct sound. I've got a Hofner and a Fender P-bass. If Paul had never played a Hofner they probably wouldn't be as expensive.
