As a bass guitarist and vocalist he was best known for his powerful vocal ability and his fast runs, fluid agility and ground-breaking sound on his Fender Precision bass.

He was a frequent collaborator with drummer Carmine Appice; the duo performed in such bands as Vanilla Fudge, Cactus and the power trio Beck, Bogert & Appice.

In my humble opinion, this Vanilla Fudge version of the Supreme's hit is the greatest cover of someone else's hit ever. If it's not, I don't know what is. I love this version as much today as I did the first time I heard it so many years ago. Hello hello... I'm at a place called Vertigo, it's everything I wish I didn't know except you keep me hanging on...
"the greatest cover of someone else's hit ever"? Eh, this one is pretty damn good, but what about All Along The Watchtower, the cover by Jimi of Dylan's song?
@@chrisjamesr77 Big difference is I said "greatest cover of someone else's hit". The Supreme's single "You Keep Me Hanging On' was a #1 hit for the Supremes. Bob Dylan's 'All Along the Watchtower' was just a song on his John Wesley Harding album - it was NOT a hit. There are thousands of covers of other people's songs - that's not remotely a select crowd. But a cover of a song that was a #1 hit - Jimi's was not that - Jimi charted higher than Bob with his version of Watchtower - it hit #20. That was a bigger chart number than Dylan's version. Dylan's version was not remotely a hit. Bob Dylan had ZERO #1 hits and four Top 10 'hits', and 23 Top 100 songs on the Billboard chart - and none of those 23 was called 'All Along The Watchtower'. Dylan's Watchtower was not remotely a hit. So again, find a cover of someone else's #1 hit song that is better than the Vanilla Fudge cover of You Keep Me Hanging On. And don't keep me hanging on. And don't say Eric Prydz's Call on Me cover of Steve Winwood's 'Valerie'. 'Valerie' only made it to #9 on Billboard's top 100. Eric's is a great video though. :)
I’ll forever love how Brad Pitt character totally defused the Manson family attack at the end, while trippin balls. That movie was too good. Another killer from QT.
Yup! Just watched it again the other night. What's not to love?! It's a really good film. Especially if you're familiar with the time it took place, QT's sound tracts are always well put together ; ) That last 20 minutes ... lol
When I was 13yrs old I found an old record player in my Grandad's basement... When I was 19 I got brave and plugged it up. This album was already there, and started playing when I plugged it in. This was the song... That helped me realize just what I was going through. I'm 22 yrs old now, and the years 2021. Life's been hell but these old songs are my sanctuary, but also a reminder of what used to be and never will again. The greatest rock legends are from the 60's-80's.
Steven and Carson, So Cool to see what you guys wrote! On the other end of the spectrum, I could have been your Grand Dad!😆 I just turned 70 a couple of weeks ago! I was introduced to this song when I was in my late teens. Still remember the girl I was dating at the time. Yep, I was part of the “hippie generation “!😆 I hadn’t even thought of this song for many years, much less played it! All of the sudden it came to my mind today. I’m still rock’n too! I will be till they bury me! You Dudes keep on rocking yourselves. You’ve got a lot longer to do it than I do! Great to read your stuff! Rock On!!😊👍
PS: When you guys get older, you’ll realize even more how many good things can, and never will be again. Make your choices wisely. I would do a whole lot of things differently if I had them over to do. But I don’t! None of us do ! But take this word of advice from an old man.😆 One bad choice can haunt you for the rest of your life. Choose wisely guys! I know you will!!😊👍

Your advice is golden. I'll make sure to heed it and stay on a good track! I hope to still be rockin like you at 70!

I was a young drummerwhen this came outand I learned every part faithfully. Many years later, I was privileged to interview Carmine on my radio show. Years after that, here I am picking out songs for this week's show, and this magically appeared again. New music is good, but just as important to keep great music like this in the public's ears too. Most of them weren't lucky enough to grow up in the 1960s and '70s, the greatest period of musical creativity and innovation ever.
IF you grew up when I did and listened to Vanilla Fudge, specifically this song, you'd get your speakers, turn them towards each other, crank the hell out of the stereo and lay down between the speakers,,,,, Just Amazing!
dennis duncan long drive golf I did that but then I'd have someone move one closer then further to give the impression of moving in a circle on a record with you feet at the middle and your head at the edge. Trippy
Yes, did that too, maybe not so loud as you guys, but then we had those whiny neighbors that came complaining about the noise..... so toned it down a little, but laying on the ground, just in the middle of your boxes was the best way to experience music.... lol ❤
That means you also had your head collapse on itself when "Take Me for a Little While" went from stereo to mono at the end! Devastating with headphones, I tell ya!
Yes! Before there were headphones. Smoke a little pot in the backyard after the folks went to bed and then some Fudge or Led Zep with "Whole Lotta Love" swirling through my head.
I'll never forget it...I was in high school and a car full of friends and I were *slo-mo cruisin'* the main drag in Texas, driving a '67 Chevy Camaro hotrod we had just finished putting headers and illegal drag slicks on, with the windows down, on a warm Summer night with this song cranked to max volume...like we owned the night!!! (The speakers were straining so hard it felt they were about to blow out of their enclosures!) Everywhere we went, heads were turnin...
" According to legend, the talk of the town during that period was Jimi Hendrix, but that's not true. It was Vanilla Fudge. They played eight-minute songs, with dynamics. People said, "What the hell's going on here? How come it's not three minutes?" Timmy Bogert, their bassist, was amazing. The whole group was ahead of its time. So, initially we wanted to be a Vanilla Fudge clone. " - Ritchie Blackmore
That was a terrible movie ending. The cops didn't have any murders to investigate, just a bunch of dead hippies who everyone assumes were high on something and just trying to rob the place, so there's no reason for anyone to tie what happened there back to the Manson family. The "happy ending" of that movie leaves the Manson family free until they inevitably kill someone else. Not to mention the fact that Roman Polanski's life trajectory would undoubtedly be different after that rewrite of history, and it's hard to say if that would be a good thing or not.
@@TheBS1000 Polanski is the real villain of story. and i wouldt be suprised if sharon was his recruiter for the girls. Manson was a known pimp of runaways alot of them underage. Roman had a real taste for underage runaways, it came out in his trial,. The more you look into it the shaier it gets. LPD Officers were arrested selling celeb sex tapes they took from polanskis who had an amateur porno studio. The amount of shit ppl dont know about this could fill a swiming pool....Makes me think thhis whole helter skleter was bs cover up. Its at the least some kind of "deal " that went bad.... Most likely worse it has pizza hollywood all over it. THose ppl got what they deserved.
I still have the original vinyl as well! I am near 72 and have never grown tired of this song. 100% better than the Supreme’s version and I am a Motown junky. For many , many years I would say Vanilla Fudge was one of my all time favorites and people would say “who”? Obviously not from San Francisco but still….
This band gets absolutely no credit for for its influence on metal music. Those heavy interwining Eastern riffs, heavy guitars, and incredibly melancholy chorus. This is incredibly ahead of its time.
I forgot how pivotal of a moment the needle drop for this song was used until I rewatched that Made Men episode this year altering watch OUATIH. The Sopranos moment escapes me though
Led Zeppelin opened up for these guys in 68' They may have been The New Yardbirds at the time. Robert Plant said that they were the nicest lads on earth. Robert and Bonzo were extremely nervous and V,F, were compassionate and helped calm them down . Man, I wish I could have been there. I did see Led Zepp 3 times. 64 and still Rockin Hard! Peace and Love
There should be a place in the hall of fame for this piece. It's just as relevant today as then and will be through the years. Depth,impact and emotion, it's all there, loved it as a teen, and now at almost 70, I still appreciate it .
Yes- best movie I have seen in the last 5 years. Truly unique and worthwhile. Pitt and DI Caprio should be getting Oscars as well as Quentin. And ZERO SJW content in this movie, so refreshing.
What do you guys like about the movie exactly? I might have missed something, but I feel it kind of sucks...No plot, too many empty scenes just used as eye candy, too many empty characters (if anyone knows why are we following Sharon's everyday routine the whole time please let me know). The acting was great though.
For those wondering, the musicians are lead vocalist-keyboardist Mark Stein, guitarist-backing vocalist Vince Martell, bassist-backing vocalist Tim Bogert, and drummer-backing vocalist Carmine Appice.
Yeah I was listening to this when I was 7. My 14 year old brother was playing it on his Phillips stereo that he bought with the money he earned at a farm market. Yes, we worked as kids for our stuff in the 60s and 70s. I bought 45s with paperboy money. Zep II came out in 72. Real music.
Ha Ha What a line But even more This is the first heavy metal rhythm section. It’s everything Bonham and Jones would become. Every damn thing. Purple, Sabbath, Heep. It’s in this.
I am a Vanilla Fudge fan since the beginning. Now a 66 year old musician still rocking. Totally overlooked band that had awesome songs and musicians. One of the best drummers as well. Keys, bass, guitar and vocals awesome.
I"m 66 too. I haven't heard this since those days... I was too young then to properly appreciate it, but I just heard it while watching Mad Men, and I sang along and remembered all the lyrics. It has never gotten better than the music we had back then. There were so many phenomenal bands, that this one flew under the radar for me. No more!
Decades ago I was in an all night restaurant in New Orleans, and the uncut version of this song came on. Though I had heard the song a million times, I’d never heard the full intro before and naturally I hadn’t any idea what song it was until the vocals started. What an amazing intro. I’ll never forget how surprised I was. Every time I hear the intro in its entirety I think of that moment in the restaurant.
"We used to slow songs down and listen to the lyrics and try to emulate what the lyrics were dictating. That one was a hurtin' song; it had a lot of emotion in it. If you listen to "Hangin' On" fast (by the Supremes), it sounds very happy, but the lyrics aren't happy at all. If you lived through that situation, the lyrics are definitely not happy...." -- Carmine Appice --
I turned 16 the year this came out. What timing! This plus the Doors, J Joplin (Big Brother and Holding Co), Cream (Clapton) and Hendrix. What a time to discover new sounds.
I was born in 1990, I grew up surrounded by gangster rap, edm, country. My musical taste could've ended up any which way, but it ended up here. Music like this is my calling in life.
Born in 97 and we surronded by the same nowaday rap , edm ,dubstep ,trap but them old music have more soul , feeling ..Fever tree , The doors , Vanila Fudge , quicksilver messenger , janis joplin , NRPS , CCR , greeting from south east asia
My generation baby heck yes i will love it till the grave! Good old days, best ever never to be seen again. The best music ever also! Vanilla Fudge sung it the best of all the wannabe’s😄♥️
@@alanstrom2221 NO...Every notable musician from that era will attest that Led Zeppelin is the father of heavy metal (as much as Robert Plant HATES that moniker). It's not even arguable. C'mon guys, you can love a band, doesn't make them the "greatest" of anything.
if we are talking 'fathers' of heavy metal then it would be one of many bands from the sixties who explored the heavier sounds. otherwise everyone knows that heavy metal began with black sabbath black sabbath, not led zep
@@freedomrider266 actually every notable musician says Blue Cheer and Iron Butterfly are. Heavy metal came from psychedelic and blues influences and both those bands predate Zeppelin.
Same here, i was a young teen when this came out & it was a total blast! Still is... its pure magic & you play this at any teen gig today & they go ape shit! My 17yr old grandson thinks this track is BRILLIANT & has all his mates listening to all my 0ld music Says he cant believe how superior & miles better the music was back then! M A G I C Peace 🇬🇧👧
956 people don't like this song thank God I don't know any one of them God this is classic cool as hell the purest form of rock and roll got it was beautiful back then
Wilson Pickett says "It doesn't matter what skin you're in, as long as you've got the feelin' in your soul" Soul Survivor. BTW - you do know that this is a Supremes cover. Enjoy it ALL!
incorrect, it just sounds very different from what "talent" sounded like in the 60. Different time, different vibe. Doesn't mean today doesn't have insanely talented musicians today, just means they're making different music than what they made back then.
This is what real music sounds like, unlike most of the modern crap today. You can feel and hear the soul in the song. I am 24 so I am not an old timer being nostalgic.
Iam only 33 and just now discovering this music. Although I heard the Supremes version from my mother. I have to say I love this version a whole lot better then the Supremes version! Sorry mama! lol
Haha, what's funny is that I'm about your age, but grew up with the Kim Wilde version. As an 80's song, it's pretty cool version, though I tend to lean towards 80's music a bit. However, yes, I'm utterly inclined to agree that this one is the superior version. I once saw a video of them performing it back in the 60's where Mark Stein was dressed like Austin Powers... AND playing a keyboard, while making huge wavy gestures. That said, he went at it as though the world was ending and he was ready to repopulate it with his ten inch dick. It was actually somewhat inspiring. Also, two words; Carmine Appice... that is all.
It's a great song and the Supremes nailed it but I also like this version best but I like the Supremes' version better than the Vanilla Fudge single. The Supremes single was recorded better IMO. Both were great versions.
natedoggg2002........ mama did a good job raising you. She will not be upset with you for listening to good music. The Supremes version is spot-on though if you ask me. I have this album also, and I love it.
Saw them do this tune twice live....First time opening for Jimi Hendrix in 1968 and later opening for Led Zeppelin in 1969. Always been a cool version.
Here in the closing days of 2021, cause my dad once again mentioned this band. He's an old drummer, and had mentioned Vanilla Fudge in the past. Naturally, he got me into music, but instead of drums, I picked up guitar and took my own path, like any young guy would. Fast forward a couple decades, and now I have a four year old son. It's time to pass on the legacy, so I bought him some drums this Christmas. My dad was able to be on hand to help assemble and tune the drums, and we talked music. He name dropped this song. So here I am, soaking in some awesome music as I get a third generation of musician going down his own path.
I just realized this song parallels Rick and Cliff's relationship. Rick didn't really need a stunt man anymore but kept Cliff hanging on because they were bros. Also Rick's relationship with Hollywood, they kept him hanging on as the bad guy. Just before this song plays Rick told Cliff he couldn't keep him on anymore and low and behold Cliff saves Rick and his wife's life. I see you QT, you evil genius.
It really is amazing ... my cousin was an original flower child and was always playing this to us youngsters aged 6 and 7. Fantastic stuff that I have carried through my life. Keeps me sane ish:)
Here we are a half century later, and i'm still pleased and proud that people still enjoy this record.

Hello hello... I'm at a place called Vertigo, it's everything I wish I didn't know except you keep me hanging on...
This one might make my top ten list. There are so many creative cover songs; I agree that this is among the best.
"the greatest cover of someone else's hit ever"? Eh, this one is pretty damn good, but what about All Along The Watchtower, the cover by Jimi of Dylan's song?
@@chrisjamesr77 Big difference is I said "greatest cover of someone else's hit". The Supreme's single "You Keep Me Hanging On' was a #1 hit for the Supremes. Bob Dylan's 'All Along the Watchtower' was just a song on his John Wesley Harding album - it was NOT a hit. There are thousands of covers of other people's songs - that's not remotely a select crowd. But a cover of a song that was a #1 hit - Jimi's was not that - Jimi charted higher than Bob with his version of Watchtower - it hit #20. That was a bigger chart number than Dylan's version.

So again, find a cover of someone else's #1 hit song that is better than the Vanilla Fudge cover of You Keep Me Hanging On. And don't keep me hanging on.
And don't say Eric Prydz's Call on Me cover of Steve Winwood's 'Valerie'. 'Valerie' only made it to #9 on Billboard's top 100. Eric's is a great video though. :)
Hendrix' All Along The Watchtower is a Dylan cover. 😊

“Nah, it was dumber’n that. It was like, Rex.”
In the end Cliff Booth was the Devil
The best version of this song
I'll have 'em both.
Both versions are great. But I do like this version better.
@@brenthaymon280 Me too. Great group. Great song.
I'll put Supremes number 1, but I like this one too. Both are great.

When I was 13yrs old I found an old record player in my Grandad's basement... When I was 19 I got brave and plugged it up. This album was already there, and started playing when I plugged it in. This was the song... That helped me realize just what I was going through. I'm 22 yrs old now, and the years 2021. Life's been hell but these old songs are my sanctuary, but also a reminder of what used to be and never will again. The greatest rock legends are from the 60's-80's.
Awesome back story. Completely empathize with you. I'm 22 as well! Keep your head up and keep the music playing, keep rockin! We'll all make it!
Steven and Carson, So Cool to see what you guys wrote! On the other end of the spectrum, I could have been your Grand Dad!😆 I just turned 70 a couple of weeks ago! I was introduced to this song when I was in my late teens. Still remember the girl I was dating at the time. Yep, I was part of the “hippie generation “!😆 I hadn’t even thought of this song for many years, much less played it! All of the sudden it came to my mind today. I’m still rock’n too! I will be till they bury me! You Dudes keep on rocking yourselves. You’ve got a lot longer to do it than I do! Great to read your stuff! Rock On!!😊👍
PS: When you guys get older, you’ll realize even more how many good things can, and never will be again. Make your choices wisely. I would do a whole lot of things differently if I had them over to do. But I don’t! None of us do ! But take this word of advice from an old man.😆 One bad choice can haunt you for the rest of your life. Choose wisely guys! I know you will!!😊👍
@@gregorycarlson6632 Hi Gregory! Loved reading your comments. Time is already seeming like a blur to me! I was 15, then I blinked and now I'm nearly 23! The older I get, time seems to be moving quicker and quicker! A lot of young people seem to act on impulse and later regret their decisions, I definitely have a few I regret myself. Your advice is golden. I'll make sure to heed it and stay on a good track! I hope to still be rockin like you at 70!
@@carsonrunyon6099 Hey Carson! Thanks for the nice comments! I hope I didn’t come across as lecturing. I’m 70, but I think I am more of a mind of 30 or 40!! Just trying to share some wise advice from a guy who learned the hard way! You are right about time! My Dad used to tell me “The older you get, the faster time goes by!” He was right! If you’re not married yet, choose wisely in that department too. You don’t want to be with the wrong partner for life! I’m sure you know many who’ve made that mistake! She better be the right one, because she’s the boss!!😆😆There’s an old adage: 90 percent of all married men admit the wife’s the boss, and the other 10 percent are liars!!😂 Be forewarned!!😆😆Stay in touch my new friend !!
I was a young drummerwhen this came outand I learned every part faithfully. Many years later, I was privileged to interview Carmine on my radio show. Years after that, here I am picking out songs for this week's show, and this magically appeared again. New music is good, but just as important to keep great music like this in the public's ears too. Most of them weren't lucky enough to grow up in the 1960s and '70s, the greatest period of musical creativity and innovation ever.
IF you grew up when I did and listened to Vanilla Fudge, specifically this song, you'd get your speakers, turn them towards each other, crank the hell out of the stereo and lay down between the speakers,,,,, Just Amazing!
YES INDEED
dennis duncan long drive golf I did that but then I'd have someone move one closer then further to give the impression of moving in a circle on a record with you feet at the middle and your head at the edge. Trippy
Yes, did that too, maybe not so loud as you guys, but then we had those whiny neighbors that came complaining about the noise..... so toned it down a little, but laying on the ground, just in the middle of your boxes was the best way to experience music.... lol ❤
That means you also had your head collapse on itself when "Take Me for a Little While" went from stereo to mono at the end! Devastating with headphones, I tell ya!
Yes! Before there were headphones. Smoke a little pot in the backyard after the folks went to bed and then some Fudge or Led Zep with "Whole Lotta Love" swirling through my head.
Even after 50 years this is still a great song.
Oh no, not THAT long? Listen to their version of Season of the Witch!!
WHAT THE ? didn't even realised that
It's timeless!
Theron Snell Or the granddaddy "Break Song"! About 24 minutes long! Everyone played extended solos and everyone in The Fudge was loaded for bear!
Damn...It has been THAT LONG AGO?....Seems like only like yesterday.....Time....
This song is like 10 songs combined into one
The bad thing about this song is it ends...
I'll never forget it...I was in high school and a car full of friends and I were *slo-mo cruisin'* the main drag in Texas, driving a '67 Chevy Camaro hotrod we had just finished putting headers and illegal drag slicks on, with the windows down, on a warm Summer night with this song cranked to max volume...like we owned the night!!! (The speakers were straining so hard it felt they were about to blow out of their enclosures!) Everywhere we went, heads were turnin...
Man...carbon copy here rock on
I'd kill to have that car today!
Awesome
Cliff Booth owned this scene! 😏 So did his pooch
They all did lol

One of the few Motown covers I like better than the original.
" According to legend, the talk of the town during that period was Jimi Hendrix, but that's not true. It was Vanilla Fudge. They played eight-minute songs, with dynamics. People said, "What the hell's going on here? How come it's not three minutes?" Timmy Bogert, their bassist, was amazing. The whole group was ahead of its time. So, initially we wanted to be a Vanilla Fudge clone. " - Ritchie Blackmore
Heck, for years I thought this WAS Deep Purple.
saw them somewhere 67 0r 8 the village. Hendrix at the Cafe Wha. tuli kufnberg fugs.
I remember them in Spring Valley in 67
Sounds like jimi hendrick and david bowie mixed to me for some reason
David Byron of Uriah Heep said almost the same thing....
Once upon a time in Hollywood - one of the best movie endings ever. Incredible.
Haha, thanks!
That was a terrible movie ending. The cops didn't have any murders to investigate, just a bunch of dead hippies who everyone assumes were high on something and just trying to rob the place, so there's no reason for anyone to tie what happened there back to the Manson family. The "happy ending" of that movie leaves the Manson family free until they inevitably kill someone else. Not to mention the fact that Roman Polanski's life trajectory would undoubtedly be different after that rewrite of history, and it's hard to say if that would be a good thing or not.
@@TheBS1000 Polanski is the real villain of story. and i wouldt be suprised if sharon was his recruiter for the girls. Manson was a known pimp of runaways alot of them underage. Roman had a real taste for underage runaways, it came out in his trial,. The more you look into it the shaier it gets. LPD Officers were arrested selling celeb sex tapes they took from polanskis who had an amateur porno studio. The amount of shit ppl dont know about this could fill a swiming pool....Makes me think thhis whole helter skleter was bs cover up. Its at the least some kind of "deal " that went bad.... Most likely worse it has pizza hollywood all over it. THose ppl got what they deserved.
One of the greatest rock songs ever! Up there with the big ones for sure!
One of the very first rock albums I owned. I am 70 years old now, still have the original vinal record and still love this album.
Good on you 🫡
I still have the original vinyl as well! I am near 72 and have never grown tired of this song. 100% better than the Supreme’s version and I am a Motown junky. For many , many years I would say Vanilla Fudge was one of my all time favorites and people would say “who”? Obviously not from San Francisco but still….
This is how you take a perfectly entertaining Motown song & turn it into something special.
Play the 45 at 33 and join in.
This band gets absolutely no credit for for its influence on metal music. Those heavy interwining Eastern riffs, heavy guitars, and incredibly melancholy chorus. This is incredibly ahead of its time.
Sung this version live hundreds of times, never tire of it,
I never get tired of this song. With any age group it's always been loved. It'll forever stay young! A real classic...
This song requires rainbows coming out of your eyes.
A lot of LSD my buddy, a lot of LSD.
Mad Men, The Sopranos and now Once Upon A Time In Hollywood
El Mandarin what about Mad Men And sopranos?
@@hrvojesamarzija928 They used this song.
I forgot how pivotal of a moment the needle drop for this song was used until I rewatched that Made Men episode this year altering watch OUATIH. The Sopranos moment escapes me though
@@VinWizzy tony waking up in the penultimate episode i think
@@VinWizzy parts of it are played throughout the finale
Still an incredible tune! It takes me back to a good place..
Led Zeppelin opened up for these guys in 68' They may have been The New Yardbirds at the time. Robert Plant said that they were the nicest lads on earth. Robert and Bonzo were extremely nervous and V,F, were compassionate and helped calm them down . Man, I wish I could have been there. I did see Led Zepp 3 times.
64 and still Rockin Hard! Peace and Love
This song is light years ahead of itself. Heavy and truthful!!!
Tonya Johnson .too.young.too.intelligent.bye..from.italy.3312121908
Vanilla Fudge were pioneers of this music in 1967. Followed by Cream, Jimi Hendricks, Deep Purple, Led Zepplin, etc.
sounds like something that could only be created in the 60s
Intellectual anarchy that makes sense
I agree! This version is fantastic! Love your name too..from another Tonya Johnson.
Strongest opening of any psychedelic band ever.
Listen to iron butterfly as well for those openings
The only comparable come up would be The Mars Volta
Try Tea Company
Flower Traveling Band
R.I.P. Tim---have a wonderful time up there.
There should be a place in the hall of fame for this piece. It's just as relevant today as then and will be through the years. Depth,impact and emotion, it's all there, loved it as a teen, and now at almost 70, I still appreciate it .
I was literally on the edge of my seat. When Cliff signals the dog, fucking incredible! Loved it from start to end, truly a masterpiece.
Yes- best movie I have seen in the last 5 years. Truly unique and worthwhile. Pitt and DI Caprio should be getting Oscars as well as Quentin. And ZERO SJW content in this movie, so refreshing.
@@mharclerode yes! I agree with 100% of everything you said. Very refreshing and I loved the whole movie
What’s the movie?
@@jhitt79 Once Upon a Time In Hollywood
What do you guys like about the movie exactly? I might have missed something, but I feel it kind of sucks...No plot, too many empty scenes just used as eye candy, too many empty characters (if anyone knows why are we following Sharon's everyday routine the whole time please let me know). The acting was great though.
5:50 when the drums come in always gives me chills
Carmine Appice! 🥁
They don't make them like this anymore!!!
I am a 1969 baby!!!
This is my music!!!
So much heart in this music!!!

It took guts and originality to take a revered song and turn it inside out.....a perfect reinvention of a song!
For those wondering, the musicians are lead vocalist-keyboardist Mark Stein, guitarist-backing vocalist Vince Martell, bassist-backing vocalist Tim Bogert, and drummer-backing vocalist Carmine Appice.

I like this version better to be honest
Absolutely !
Yeah I was listening to this when I was 7. My 14 year old brother was playing it on his Phillips stereo that he bought with the money he earned at a farm market. Yes, we worked as kids for our stuff in the 60s and 70s. I bought 45s with paperboy money. Zep II came out in 72. Real music.
"Is everybody ok?"
"Ya we're fine. But the hippies ain't that's for god damn sure."
Ha Ha
What a line
But even more
This is the first heavy metal rhythm section. It’s everything Bonham and Jones would become. Every damn thing. Purple, Sabbath, Heep. It’s in this.
" they hate the freedom you represent ..." easy rider ..
aaah - the memories..!
The fuckin hippies ain’t 😂
Them against us - us against them? Really, ya need more 'shrooms, ol' salt!
I am a Vanilla Fudge fan since the beginning. Now a 66 year old musician still rocking. Totally overlooked band that had awesome songs and musicians. One of the best drummers as well. Keys, bass, guitar and vocals awesome.
Me too ! Colin ,like you said!!
can you still walk? where do u live now?
it'll never stop brother!
I"m 66 too. I haven't heard this since those days... I was too young then to properly appreciate it, but I just heard it while watching Mad Men, and I sang along and remembered all the lyrics. It has never gotten better than the music we had back then. There were so many phenomenal bands, that this one flew under the radar for me. No more!
A lot got overlooked with Zeppelin, The Who, and other all-timers that were coming up-cranking up...Good band.
Decades ago I was in an all night restaurant in New Orleans, and the uncut version of this song came on. Though I had heard the song a million times, I’d never heard the full intro before and naturally I hadn’t any idea what song it was until the vocals started. What an amazing intro. I’ll never forget how surprised I was. Every time I hear the intro in its entirety I think of that moment in the restaurant.
“You’re a good friend, Cliff.”
“I do my best.”🤘🏽

Tony Gauci Mine’s from the directors cut😉
Such a great scene
"Ah, I might get a limp but I'm not gonna die. Come visit tomorrow. Bring bagels!"
Sarah Van Ginkle it’s from the movie Once Upon a Time In Hollywood by Quentin Tarantino
love the Supremes but this takes it to a whole other 60's level
"We used to slow songs down and listen to the lyrics and try to emulate what the lyrics were dictating. That one was a hurtin' song; it had a lot of emotion in it. If you listen to "Hangin' On" fast (by the Supremes), it sounds very happy, but the lyrics aren't happy at all. If you lived through that situation, the lyrics are definitely not happy...." -- Carmine Appice --
so true....it seems to have so much more gravitas.....just my opinion
One of the few times a cover is better than the original!
Way better!!
I agree
My 8 track still lives!
"Oh shit!" ~ Random waddling gas station onlooker, 2007
One the teenagers: 🤮
That scene STILL cracks me up (As Phil's head is being used as a speed bump)
I turned 16 the year this came out. What timing! This plus the Doors, J Joplin (Big Brother and Holding Co), Cream (Clapton) and Hendrix. What a time to discover new sounds.
I turned 22 in 1967! Been listening to this for 50 years now. God...that's a half century! WTF?
me too
me three
Yep, 50 years for me too. I won 3 concert tickets for Vanilla Fudge and Cream when I was 13 in '67. The Fudge blew Cream away.
George Bush you were at the right place at the right age and time! Peace and love...
I was born in 1990, I grew up surrounded by gangster rap, edm, country. My musical taste could've ended up any which way, but it ended up here. Music like this is my calling in life.
Born in 97 and we surronded by the same nowaday rap , edm ,dubstep ,trap but them old music have more soul , feeling ..Fever tree , The doors , Vanila Fudge , quicksilver messenger , janis joplin , NRPS , CCR , greeting from south east asia
My generation baby heck yes i will love it till the grave! Good old days, best ever never to be seen again. The best music ever also! Vanilla Fudge sung it the best of all the wannabe’s😄♥️
One of my favourite vocals of all time.
Feel the anguish 😧
I wonder if H-D-H enjoyed the rock version of their song? I think it's absolute magic.
I feel that tension.
I was 12 when this song first aired. I was blown away. Still am today!
My father once told me as I cranked out Sabbath in my youth. You know son there was a band before them called Vanilla Fudge.
I heard somewhere a long time ago that this band and this song are/is the very 1st recognised HEAVY METAL/HARD ROCK song recorded.
@@alanstrom2221 NO...Every notable musician from that era will attest that Led Zeppelin is the father of heavy metal (as much as Robert Plant HATES that moniker). It's not even arguable. C'mon guys, you can love a band, doesn't make them the "greatest" of anything.
Is it ironic that the drummer for Vanilla Fudge, Carmine Appice had a younger brother, Vinny Appice who went on to play for Black Sabbath??
if we are talking 'fathers' of heavy metal then it would be one of many bands from the sixties who explored the heavier sounds.
otherwise everyone knows that heavy metal began with black sabbath black sabbath, not led zep
@@freedomrider266 actually every notable musician says Blue Cheer and Iron Butterfly are. Heavy metal came from psychedelic and blues influences and both those bands predate Zeppelin.
This song popped into my head the other day, I had to revisit it. My dad used to listen to it when he drove me to school. Good times!
Same here, i was a young teen when this came out & it was a total blast!
Still is... its pure magic & you play this at any teen gig today & they go ape shit!
My 17yr old grandson thinks this track is BRILLIANT & has all his mates listening to all my 0ld music
Says he cant believe how superior & miles better the music was back then!

How can you NOT love a heavy metal ( for the times ) band that named themselves VANILLA FUDGE ?!?!!
God I loved the ' 60 's !!!!
this ain't heavy metal man! . . . . . . the only whiteboy band signed by Motown!
@@mastrclndr Rare Earth was on the Motown label as well.
Yes
Because they weren't heavy metal--Led Zeppelin brought that to earth, period!
Black sabbath tho

My mama loved this version of this song
One of the best Rock and Roll songs ever made. A MUST sing along
there ain't nothin I can do about it . . . . you really don't want me . . you just keep me hangin onnnnn
As a 22 year old I can say it gives me such Nostalgia to an Era my Eyes have Never Seen.
Love the Vanillla Fudge since 1969!!
This is a wonderful cover of a great group, thank u vanilla fudge. I'm a black person and I'm rolling with this
Roderick music speaks to us all, colour, age, gender makes no difference lol xx
We all have one thing in common and that we love good music.
Emphasis on race is so strong in today's society.
Wilson Pickett says "It doesn't matter what skin you're in, as long as you've got the feelin' in your soul" Soul Survivor. BTW - you do know that this is a Supremes cover. Enjoy it ALL!
Nothing wrong with that I'm a white guy and I love Black women and alot of the black groups
You just can't find talent like this today!
incorrect, it just sounds very different from what "talent" sounded like in the 60. Different time, different vibe. Doesn't mean today doesn't have insanely talented musicians today, just means they're making different music than what they made back then.
This is what real music sounds like, unlike most of the modern crap today. You can feel and hear the soul in the song. I am 24 so I am not an old timer being nostalgic.
Corporate shite.
My Dad turned me onto this version!! Thank you!!
Truly a memory, now I’m 63… and this is the version I have been searching for ever since I was 7 years old🥰
Hello, I'm 65, live in 🇨🇦, have this 45. Only listen to it now and then, brings back to many memories.
I love the sound of the drums during this era
Real drum sets. Simple and required a lot of talent to get that sound.
me too, nowdays drums sound like $hit awful overproduced crap
This song is so underrated
So is the band
💯
Epic gut wrenching 70s album rock
hardly, it was huge
@@jeffjcool1600 At the time, but hasn't had the continuous appeal of a band like Zeppelin still. But hugely influential at the time.
I'm just here to pay my respects to Tim Bogert.
Still listen to this song thanks guys ❤️
Iam only 33 and just now discovering this music. Although I heard the Supremes version from my mother. I have to say I love this version a whole lot better then the Supremes version! Sorry mama! lol
Haha, what's funny is that I'm about your age, but grew up with the Kim Wilde version. As an 80's song, it's pretty cool version, though I tend to lean towards 80's music a bit. However, yes, I'm utterly inclined to agree that this one is the superior version. I once saw a video of them performing it back in the 60's where Mark Stein was dressed like Austin Powers... AND playing a keyboard, while making huge wavy gestures. That said, he went at it as though the world was ending and he was ready to repopulate it with his ten inch dick. It was actually somewhat inspiring. Also, two words; Carmine Appice... that is all.
natedoggg2002 ....originals are usually best man.. Keep diggin... Like my profile pic says... Dig Deep. 👍
No no no,, the true golden girls,, the Supremes,, imagine if they had better song quality too.. Crushn the competition 💪💪👊👊
It's a great song and the Supremes nailed it but I also like this version best but I like the Supremes' version better than the Vanilla Fudge single. The Supremes single was recorded better IMO. Both were great versions.
natedoggg2002........ mama did a good job raising you. She will not be upset with you for listening to good music. The Supremes version is spot-on though if you ask me. I have this album also, and I love it.
Tim Bogert died yesterday age 76. R.I.P.
😔
Saw them do this tune twice live....First time opening for Jimi Hendrix in 1968 and later opening for Led Zeppelin in 1969. Always been a cool version.
Here in the closing days of 2021, cause my dad once again mentioned this band. He's an old drummer, and had mentioned Vanilla Fudge in the past. Naturally, he got me into music, but instead of drums, I picked up guitar and took my own path, like any young guy would. Fast forward a couple decades, and now I have a four year old son. It's time to pass on the legacy, so I bought him some drums this Christmas. My dad was able to be on hand to help assemble and tune the drums, and we talked music. He name dropped this song. So here I am, soaking in some awesome music as I get a third generation of musician going down his own path.
O
It's a crime that this band is not in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame yet
The Rock and roll Hall of Fame is a scam.
One of my favorite songs from the past ❤
I just turned 40 and this is my favorite song ever!!!
I just realized this song parallels Rick and Cliff's relationship. Rick didn't really need a stunt man anymore but kept Cliff hanging on because they were bros. Also Rick's relationship with Hollywood, they kept him hanging on as the bad guy. Just before this song plays Rick told Cliff he couldn't keep him on anymore and low and behold Cliff saves Rick and his wife's life. I see you QT, you evil genius.
Great analysis man
OMG you're right! 😂
There’s also a sinister vibe to which fits the mood given the circumstances.
They also kept Sharon Tate hanging on in a sense
Also Jay Sebring was hanging on for Sharon.
The highly underrated Vanilla Fudge plays well in the 21st century! One of the best:Thanks, guys!
And they're all still alive and healthy---save one (Bogert)
Just introduced to this gem last week and im addicted. I was born in 91' and love music that touches the soul
Used to dote on this song...80 and still do...great music is forever...
Whether it's Sopranos or Tarantino, you know someone's skull is about to adopt new and interesting dimensions whenever you hear this play.
