I’ve called Marty and The Fabulous Superlatives the best band in country music. I’ll have to rephrase that-they’re the best band in ANY kind of music! If there’s a band out there that can equal them, I’d love to hear it!

That's pretty cool Fred. Several band members are long gone. The drummer, Butch became a Navy pilot and later flew for Delta Air Lines passing away in '98 due to a heart condition. Wished I seen them live back in the day.
Well, actually, Chris Scruggs plays steel guitar from time to time. They are an awsome band, yes, for sure! I saw the band during Covid time a month after you did-October 16 or 17, 2021. No autographs, but his guitar roadie - let me have one of Marty’s picks and take pics of the front and back of his mandolin and his B-bender Martin-so kind for sure! Glad you got to see them, too!❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉Thanks for uploading your video. Subbed.❤❤❤🎉🎉❤❤
Wow. I was 9 when I first heard this tune come scratchin' out from the tiny speaker of my coveted transistor radio. Psychedelic music became imprinted on my brain and a love of heavy rock and metal soon followed throughout the seventies and eighties! To hear C&W artist Marty Stewart cover this Count 5 classic of my youth here? Priceless!
Marty, Marty, Marty... you never cease to amaze me! Every now and again I pull up your old tv shows for shits n’ giggles. You and the Superlatives are truly Americana.
This band can fuse so many styles. When I saw them with McGuinn, they did the old retro psychedelic thing perfectly. I think this is now my official favorite touring band! Kenny V - can't get much better.
I'm with you HJ -- they cover STYLES and do them all equally well. They're just flat out pure PROS. Going from amazing surf, to straight forward old-school country to gospel to bluegrass-y stuff is hard, and they just do it all. And that's BEFORE their insanely good VOCAL harmonies.
Kenny shoudda gone that one step beyond the Count 5 & channeled Jeff Beck-era Yardies. However, he understood the assignment. Sounded great. Thank you for posting
Love the original count 5 ,Tom Petty as well . Marty & the supearltives Now that is one hell of a vibe you guys got going there . Makes me want to pick up my guitar every time.
Marty, one of the most talented guitarists, musicians ever. Although I'm not a big fan of his music, as I myself, a guitarist of 45 years can attest to, this dude a picking genius!
Cool cover! If you have never seen Marty live, please do so. He knows how to surround himself with the best musicians (Kenny Vaughn? Holy smoke!) and puts on a killer show each time I have seen him on stage.
Yep, Marty you are the best !! Cant get any better !! All your shows I’ve been to , you always made me laugh !! (LOL). Best Songwriter, SINGER , STORY TELLER , hope I didn’t leave anything out ?? Or did I ??
Marty, your band is great! Always enjoy the versatility and little surprises in the live shows..... people enjoy familiarity but we also like to be surprised. Thanks.
I have always loved this song,and have a great appreciation for Marty Stuart.Great version of a classic.Not surprised by the great guitar playing,many so called country guitarists are just monsters players.✌️
You can't tell from this video but the Fremont is a gorgeous art-deco theater and with the right soundman the acoustics are great. Sadly I missed this show.
Marty and the guys can put anything across, you name it and they'll play it! The main riff has always made me think of Suzy Q and smokestack lightening. They have covered everything from the count 5, Buddy Holly, Buck Owens, bluegrass and all points in between nailing them all. Kenny is an absolute master not forgetting Marty with the Clarence White B Bender they can trade riffs and solos with ease. Here the B Bender is at rest as Marty lays down the rhythm, is he playing an esquire?
untouchable band right there !! saw them here in Canada awhile back, gospel, chickin pickin, rock, blues, country, harmonies, bluegrass they nailed it all !!
I used to go to the Fremont Theater many a time as a kid to watch movies during the summer of my youth. Some of those films included JOURNEY TO THE LOST CITY (1960), THE LOST WORLD (1960), LOST WORLD OF SINBAD (1965), MARA OF THE WILDERNESS (1965), SNOW WHITE AND THE THREE STOOGES (1960), THE SWORD AND THE DRAGON (1960), and WHEN DINOSAURS RULED THE EARTH (1971). The local Parents Teacher Association had a deal going down with the Fremont Theater to show these movies and many more on Saturday afternoons, and we kiddies got our tickets, and had a good time. I even saw a few Disney flicks on those Saturday afternoons, such as THE BISCUIT EATER (1973), NOW YOU SEE HIM NOW YOU DON’T (1972), and my all-time Walt Disney movie 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA (1954). At least the Fremont Theater is still in business, even if it’s just a music hall with an occasional movie being shown. But what good times I had back in the day.
What a great band, I love garage bands from the 60’s. I remember buying Nuggets when it came out so I could have a great compilation of garage bands. If you guys don’t have it get it!
Marty’s got more “lanes” than an L A Freeway interchange. Lanes most players have never dreamed of, much less driven on. I used to take him for granted, much like I did my own health, until late in this crazy life., But not anymore. He can swing, shuffle, scoot, and trip all with a Third Eye widely open!
This one is straight out of Marty’s wheelhouse, This just shows off one of his many musical facets. Marty congrats on the C.M.H.O.F. Induction! So long overdue!🎶
Amazing! If more Country "artists" had a pulse on what genuine music is, I wouldn't hate so many Country artists. Honestly, they all make me want to puke. But Marty and the Superlatives? These cats I could listen to all week long. Get it right and I'm there!
Yeah it's kind of like lies is the best Beatles song never done by the Beatles from The Knickerbockers Or drops of Jupiter from train is the best song The Black crowes never did LOL
I went to high school with the Count Five, Many comments indicate some sort of Yardbird rip off. Obviously, the Count Five were influenced by the Yardbirds, but also the Kinks< Beatles and in general, the British groups. When they played teen club dances, they played as many Kinks, Beatles, Animals and other groups as much as they did Yardbirds. Psychotic Reaction was written and re-written several times. With the help of Brian Lord, a San Jose disk Jockey, Psychotic became the song it is today. Most of the British groups were influenced by American blues artists. In particular, the Yardbirds were influenced by Sonny Boy Williamson and Howlin Wolf. The Yardbird song "I'm a Man' is associated most with Psychotic Reaction. "I'm a Man" was written and performed by Bo Diddley. So, as you can see, every band is influenced by someone, including the Beatles. Psychotic Reaction charted up to #5 on Billboard, while the Yardbirds never had a song go any higher than #6 in the US. Not bad considering the drummer and singer were only 19 , the lead was 17 and the bass and harmonica player were 18. The group had their own unique sound and were a lot of fun to dance to. They had a real tight sound and were influenced by many different artists.
@@jcheck6 Wow. Sorry for the late reply. I knew Butch quite well through the Count Five. He was not a great friend or someone I hung out with though. He was a Senior when I was a Sophomore, you know the way that works. I was very good friend of Kenn, the harmonica player, and John Byrne, the singer. But as I said, I knew all of them well because I went to ALL of their practices and most of their local gigs,
@@rickconrad6657 That is pretty cool Rich, thanks. A group that does the best cover of Psychotic Reaction is led by Tom Petty. You probably know Butch's history; after college became a Navy pilot flying P-3's then flew for Delta Air Lines and passed in the late 90's from I believe a heart issue. Never met him but the connection is that I am a retired pilot.

so it just isn't me! they are the best

Who would think Marty would take up this song. And, yet, once he starts singing, it all makes sense. It’s a Marty - shapeable song.
Did Marty get into the brownies backstage???
It just don't get any better than Marty and the Boys, and I swear Kenny is such a MONSTER!
Would love to hear Kenny do more of the signature 60s Rock leads.
Marty is a master musician... have you ever heard him play something that disappointed you...I didn't think so...this was very cool...
I love both the Count Five and the Cramps version, bit Marty & the Fab Superlatives are killing it!
I saw Count Five perform their hit at the California State Fair in '68. This tune brought back many memories from my early R&R days.
koooooool !!!
Wow. How did they sound doing it live .
That's pretty cool Fred. Several band members are long gone. The drummer, Butch became a Navy pilot and later flew for Delta Air Lines passing away in '98 due to a heart condition. Wished I seen them live back in the day.
Man did these guys nail this..as a life long
Musician...I really love Marty doesn't add a steel player..or keyboards..they always cover any song

A country version of Psychotic Reaction, how cool is that. And Kenny Vaughan, what can you say, he's a guitar god.
And what has he done in his career that's hard to duplicate?
If songs could be inducted into the Rock ‘N Roll Hall of Fame, this one should be in.
Marty, Marty, Marty... you never cease to amaze me! Every now and again I pull up your old tv shows for shits n’ giggles. You and the Superlatives are truly Americana.

They ARE currently the best touring band.
Kenny shoudda gone that one step beyond the Count 5 & channeled Jeff Beck-era Yardies. However, he understood the assignment. Sounded great. Thank you for posting
Marty can play whatever he wants to. Guaranteed he will kill it. What a good time!
Love the original count 5 ,Tom Petty as well . Marty & the supearltives Now that is one hell of a vibe you guys got going there . Makes me want to pick up my guitar every time.
I had to ! I was checking out Count Fives' version and saw Martys' version and I'm glad I did ! Bad boys !
Saw them at The Egg, Albany NY around this time.
Marty can sing anything! His voice is sooo damn good.
I have studied every thing known to mankind about Clarence White and Danny Gatton, and IMHO am only half-way there!.
Marty looks like he is having fun, and that's what counts :)
Why does this not surprise me? Good grief. 'Bout as far from hard country as you can get and they still nail it.
Marty, one of the most talented guitarists, musicians ever. Although I'm not a big fan of his music, as I myself, a guitarist of 45 years can attest to, this dude a picking genius!
Considered one of the world's top mandolin players as well.
Cool cover! If you have never seen Marty live, please do so. He knows how to surround himself with the best musicians (Kenny Vaughn? Holy smoke!) and puts on a killer show each time I have seen him on stage.
can't help but smile
This band is top shelf 👌
Seen them again on 7/8/23. One of the best live acts out there. Not to missed. Top notch musicians!!!
What a band, Mr. Vaughan is King. 😎
A Marty Stewart show looks like a lot of fun !
Kenny killing it. As usual.
Marty is "The Man". I never knew til recently how truly incredibly GREAT Marty Stuart is and I would love to sing Rusty Cage with him.
Yep, Marty you are the best !! Cant get any better !! All your shows I’ve been to , you always made me laugh !! (LOL). Best Songwriter, SINGER , STORY TELLER , hope I didn’t leave anything out ?? Or did I ??
What an unusual choice for the child prodigy Marty Stuart to cover- really out of the box! Cool.
Love this version
Just saw him a week ago, he did it for part of his encore, floored me.
This was Tucson Az
I saw him oct 29.
It was an acoustic show.
Still fantastic
i recorded our first record in the same studio as Count Five did Psychotic. We broke up after that. God bless the "60s
Marty, your band is great! Always enjoy the versatility and little surprises in the live shows..... people enjoy familiarity but we also like to be surprised. Thanks.
My God Marty and Kenny are a couple of the baddest Pickers on the planet! Smokin!
I have always loved this song,and have a great appreciation for Marty Stuart.Great version of a classic.Not surprised by the great guitar playing,many so called country guitarists are just monsters players.✌️
My favorite band. These guys are the real deal.

Excellent. I loved this song by the one-hit Wonders, "The Count Five". The Count Five all dressed in Dracula outfits on their album cover.
untouchable band right there !! saw them here in Canada awhile back, gospel, chickin pickin, rock, blues, country, harmonies, bluegrass they nailed it all !!
i could listen to this band for days on end , awesome
Geezus! The boys must had some of our Government-Distrbuted Canadian Marijuana that night! ("I Had Too Much to Dream Last Night.")
Damn Marty’s got a killer band!
Killer amps too
We saw them do this in Jim Thorpe PA on October 30, 2021. Fantastic!
Love it! And they snuck in The Yardbirds ending from I'm A Man!

Marty his grouper nailing it
Marty was next to the last act when my wife,son,and I saw him at the Grand Ole Opera back in 05. He did some great blues numbers.
That’s Opry …
I am not a fan of country music but thèse guys are amazing with just simple plug and play technologies, no pedals, they really bring it on!
Pedals all over stage 🤣
Thank you so very much for this I was born in Paso Robles California and San Luis Obispo was my stomping ground until 2002.
This beats anything I have ever seen!!!! How awesome!!!
What a great band, I love garage bands from the 60’s. I remember buying Nuggets when it came out so I could have a great compilation of garage bands. If you guys don’t have it get it!
Marty a little out of his normal lane with this psych classic...but he killed it!
...and that footwork too -- not too shabby for an old feller!!
Marty’s got more “lanes” than an L A Freeway interchange. Lanes most players have never dreamed of, much less driven on. I used to take him for granted, much like I did my own health, until late in this crazy life., But not anymore. He can swing, shuffle, scoot, and trip all with a Third Eye widely open!
This one is straight out of Marty’s wheelhouse,
This just shows off one of his many musical facets. Marty congrats on the C.M.H.O.F. Induction! So long overdue!🎶
I detect a Chris Scruggs influence. He's a big fan of 60s garage rock and pop.
I know this from BRENTON WOODS version! 🤩 🤩 wow
There is NO Doubt ... Marty Stuart & the Fabulous Superlatives, are a "TRIP" ! 🤯
Keeping us entertained for years 🎵🎵🎵🎵
wow!!!
Amazing! If more Country "artists" had a pulse on what genuine music is, I wouldn't hate so many Country artists. Honestly, they all make me want to puke. But Marty and the Superlatives? These cats I could listen to all week long. Get it right and I'm there!
love ya Marty same old band , so tight .............. what .fun
Just proves that country and Rock and Roll, have the same roots, he's really talented
The original, by Count Five, has to be considered one of the great songs of the 60s....the "garage band", Count Five was from San Jose, CA.
Got to know Craig [the drummer for the Count Five ] was a good and friendly person .
The Yardbirds influenced so many of us in those days!
@@patrickmccourtnet8429 How long did you know Butch? After the band he became a Navy pilot then flew for Delta Air Lines. Passed around '98.
Wow , very cool !!!
Holy authentic rendition Batman!
I love these guys, they never miss !!!
Best live show going
Man, that was fun!
I still have the Count 5 45. They do a fine fine job covering this old chestnut
God Bless You Marty Stuart !!!
You Get It !!
WOW ! How cool is that !
Stunning. Exquisite.
Kenny just kills it
Would guess it was Kenny’s idea, too
Cousin Kenny is a fantastic guitar player. A friend of mine played in a band with him for two years. He said Kenny is a great guy too.
Get it straight from Kenny!
th-cam.com/video/sb4JKW4bs7M/w-d-xo.html
Well, That was fun!
The great Marty and his brilliant band!!!
love his cover !!
Marty Stuart RULES...
Great version... The Count Five would be proud!
that's bad-ass! cool version!
Nice! Probably the best Yardbirds rave-up song not done by the Yardbirds.
Yeah it's kind of like lies is the best Beatles song never done by the Beatles from The Knickerbockers
Or drops of Jupiter from train is the best song The Black crowes never did LOL
Marty is just pure talent. !!! 👍👍
tight and sweet, tanks for sharing
Excellent!!
This is just so freaking cool!
I've been loving Harry Stinson's drumming since he was in the short-lived band Silver -- "Wham Bam Shang-A-Lang" anyone?
Perfection!
damn those dudes can kill at will. great choice of cover.
Good job Drummer, and rest of band. Marty’s Diversified!!!
Dig the Dancin' ! ~
Love that Esquire!!
When I was 14 (1966) this was a new song, the high school kid rock band I was in covered it. We played it at the school dances.
These guys are great.
Great tune. My band did this song before it became an oldie but a goodie
Loved it,never seen him move so much Jed reat
Loved this!!
Now that was a surprise.
