SHINDIG! - Legends of Rock & Roll - part 3of3

-----------------------------------

--The Everly Brothers - "Wake Up Little Susie"

--Chuck Berry - "Back In The USA"

--James Brown - "Night Train"

------------------------------------

Shindig! was a rock 'n' roll series that ran from September 16, 1964 through January 8, 1966 on the ABC network.

Shindig! was created and produced by Jack Good who had previously produced rock 'n' roll TV shows in his native Britain. There, he perfected his style of fast-paced rock music programing. In 1962, Good produced a pilot for American TV. The pilot, titled "Young America Swings the World," eventually became the blueprint for Shindig!

Most of the top American and British rock/pop acts of the mid-1960s appeared on Shindig!. The British performers often appeared in segments taped in the U.K.

Shindig! was different from previous U.S. rock 'n' roll programs. It featured non-stop music that, in most cases, was only interrupted by the commercial breaks.
Shindig! started a trend in television which could probably best be described as "rock 'n' roll...with go-go dancers."

  • Terry Garr is one of The Shindig Girls. Look close. She's dancing behind James Brown.

  • I've seen James Brown perform a number of times in the 60's and 70's - the excitement this man generates is beyond belief. This clip of Night Train is just a taste of a James Brown concert.
