This was a treasure, a treat. Loved it. To me they were one of the greatest groups in music history. Glad their in the Hall of Fame. Eddy Brigati is great, such a great addition to this group. All good!!!!
Saw them three times in their heyday. They were so much fun to listen to. The drummer was absolutely phenomenal! Led Zeppelin and Young Rascals best two bands I ever saw. The Rascals were electric.
When I was active I use to play Bass left hand and right hand chords and no bass player. We just learn to auto magically adapt. I was a lead singer also. It just comes with playing all the time. What ever it takes to make a few bucks. Fewer musicians and more money for the rest of us. I was a bass player when I started touring until the band found out I played keys. I should have asked for money! I played Bass pedals when I grew up with a C3 in my home. Felix was a monster too. My favorite Hammond player was Jimmy Smith. He could really play those pedals!!!!!!
@@erlowther I think the vocals are mostly or totally live. Instruments are not. Look closely at Dino's drums and cymbals and you'll notice he's not really hitting them. Guitar isn't even plugged into anything. The set is cleverly made to look like a "live" recording session.
We had some excellent treatment regimens over the radio in the 60's and 70's. This one is my favorite. A bit of lime in the coconut was a groovy musical prescription as well.
Hehehehe, what memories from my childhood, great 60's band, the pioneers of stage gimmicks and awesome musicianship, the reason I became a professional muso myself, after 50 years I tip my hat, the saddest part of the era was the Vietnam conflict, cheers and thanks for the chuckles, funny they used the song, Aint gonna eat out my heart anymore, which was done by the Divinyls who got the credit, Buffy the Vampire slayer theme song,, Young Rascals did it in 65 or 66
I remember this performance,it alway's stuck with me because i remember seeing a Dog on top of Felix Cavaliere's leslie !! I Love The Young Rascal's Music and there stage presence !! R.I.P. Dino Danelli !! 🙏
Great music & memories of life, solid gold standard of excellence, top of the line beautiful masterpiece, one of the very best groups of all time, 100% Italian, A+ rating
I saw these guys in concert three times. One of them was in Miami Beach when they donated their pay plus paid all of their own expenses while raising money for Danny Thomas and the St. Jude's Children Foundation. This didn't even make the papers. However, a week later Led Zeppelin played in the same convention center which caused the fans to destroy the place. This made the papers.
Drummers who are educated and informed know who Dino Danelli is. He's not under-rated -- he's just not recognized by average people who buy music. It may be because he was always a bit low profile. Dino, from Jersey City, NJ played with Lionel Hampton earlier in his career and was one of the few rock drummers who were actually jazz trained. Dino still plays to this day as far as I know. Dino played with Little Steven (of Bruce Springsteen fame) in his band The Disciples of Soul. He also played with lead guitarist Leslie West of Mountain. However, it is my belief that his lack of acknowledgment as a drummer is not having joined a high profile band after The Rascals. Had he done that his name would've continued to be out there as it was in the '60s. I'm a former drummer and I always thought Danelli as one hell of an excellent drummer. Always was. If you think he couldn't have taken Keith Moon's spot in The Who you'd be wrong.

Great song and this is cool. Started off as usual for the period. A lot of times in those days, the drummer could even be playing a solo (yes, not in this song), or some great fill, and the damn camera would be on the guitarist just standing there. It’s amazing how little the videographers in the old videos understood about drumming. Or, maybe it was just that they thought no one wanted to watch the drummer (whereas, that’s what I personally mainly want to watch, except for a solo by another musician or the singer). He started to show him a bit, towards the end. I’ve never really understood that, but look at a lot of old videos for confirmation.
This video obviously features a pre-recorded instrumental part but with live vocals. Anyway, I feel compelled at this moment to relive a bit of my youth... I became a Young Rascals fan with Good Lovin'. I was a high school sophomore in Columbus, Ohio at the time. I bought the album and liked every bit of it. I thought it included a great version of Midnight Hour. Blue-eyed soul at its finest. Then about a year later came the album Groovin'. Great stuff, all of it. For the next few years I stayed hook on the Rascals through the good tunes, and a few of the more mediocre ones. In January of 1970 the Rascals were schedule to play Columbus for what I believe was the first and perhaps only time. I had to be there. I asked an old girlfriend if she would like go and with a bit of contempt in her voice, she said no. I ended up asking a girlfriend of my sister. We were about 3/4 of the way back, on the left side of Veteran's Memorial Auditorium. The warm-up band was the Chocolate Watch Band. I dated the girl for about a year. It was a long time ago.
You're right. My bag. I never got to see them, although they were one of the great live bands. I don't think they toured as much as most big hitmakers.
+jsgreen The most amazing thing about your last comment was that you admitted you were in error. I think there are about two or three people on the entire internet who will admit to an online error when they make one. So I give you a big thumbs up for that. As for the Rascals, the instrumental portion of the song on the video sounds _exactly_ like the album version which I have heard perhaps a thousands of times over the last 50+ years. The vocals sound different and it looks pretty obvious that they are live. Felix Cavaliere does a solid job and he is still active today. A few years ago he did a live, solo version of another one of the Rascal hits Lonely Too Long which sounds great, at least to my ears. th-cam.com/video/-LKmtdIOIW4/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for this great video upload! What a GREAT band. I followed them from the day they hit "the scene", grew up on Long Island, too, playing in cover bands including several Rascals numbers. Believe me when I tell you that there were a LOT of bands mining this same soulful musical direction back then (although also then possibly being highly influenced by the Young Rascals)... the Hassles, Vagrants, the Illusion....
What's the difference between Gene Krupa, Keith Moon and Dino Danelli? I see only one, and it's a big 'un ---- Dino never got a fraction of the recognition for his talent as did the others.
mnpd3 the industry didn't acknowledge American talents and covered UK artists like Moon and the Who. Years later all ppl took heed to former so called AM bands. these guys rocked...Little Steven knew and so do we! fantastic thread here!
I saw Dino from backstage many times as I played in a (crappy) band that open a bunch of shows for them. One thing he'd do is twirl his sticks sometimes behind the tom tom, no one could see it but just a fortunate few, also sometimes he'd toss a stick in the air and catch it right on the beat. He was a fine fine drummer.
They're definitely miming to the backing track for the instruments, but the vocal isn't the standard from the record. The section around 1:08 makes me think the vocals might be live. If it's a lip sync, it's a rather unusual, very good one, to a different, more live sounding vocal track.
Listen up rap and hip hop lovers, this is art. This is music.
I don’t like rap or hip hop ,
I wish they would bring this kind of music back! It's up tempo is what all of us need today & forever!
The Young Rascals were one of my favorite groups during the 60's . Their sound was exciting & inspiring !
The best band out the east coast ever....ok...one of the best.
THESE JERSEY BOYS SURE HAD SOUL👈😎👍🇺🇲
Philadelphia Sound
This was a monster hit ...... and still stands the test of time !
Great drummer you rock Dino 🥁👍
This was a treasure, a treat. Loved it. To me they were one of the greatest groups in music history. Glad their in the Hall of Fame. Eddy Brigati is great, such a great addition to this group. All good!!!!
They were the very best . Soo talented. Dino Danelli amazing drummer!
Fecking awesome !! I can't sit still ...up groovin around like a teenager again...woohoo !!!!
One of my favorite songs, ever! This really rocks!
Saw them three times in their heyday. They were so much fun to listen to. The drummer was absolutely phenomenal! Led Zeppelin and Young Rascals best two bands I ever saw. The Rascals were electric.
Dino Danelli, been saying he is one the best rock drummers for a long time!
Based on this "Air Drummer" Performance?
dude u r the best
@@GDTRFBBB uh…have you seen any other Drummers? LOLoud
@@gruntrvn Most of them... While they were Performing Live. Unlike this Air Drummer performance!
Why?
@@GDTRFBBB check out their cover of Mickey’s Monkey to really see him in action. Holy shit, he was on fire on that video.
My God what a drummer!
My first concert. 1967. I was 14, front row right. Right in front of the P.A. speaker. My ears were ringing for 3 days after. Absolutely magical.
Mine too
i was born in 1967 your were so lucky to had the chance to see them perform. So amazing!
How's your hearing now?
Dino does a head bop every snare hit.. it's insane.
Felix rocks this heavenly perfect musical FOURSOME.
These guys are largely forgotten these days - great musicianship, great songs and great stage presence. Awesome band, and Dino - one of the best ever.
when you see Felix play his left hand , right hand , his feet and sing, talk about extreme coordination, WOW.

I played Bass pedals when I grew up with a C3 in my home. Felix was a monster too. My favorite Hammond player was Jimmy Smith. He could really play those pedals!!!!!!
John Neslusan sure doesn’t sound like a left hand or kick bass happening in this live version. Maybe actual bass player guitarist off camera.

This whole band is rocking !!!!!!
They sure are! They were all about the energy.
What a great organ solo and it's so simple. Yeah Felix.
One of the greatest songs ever..
I saw them in concert in the sixties. They were great.
Dino Danelli on drums......WOW!!!!!
Man, this song still rocks. Awesome grooves, riffs, breaks... ageless
Dino Danelli = underrated. As is this band in general.
Karen Canzoneri
You know your music, he's one of the most entertaining Drummers of all time....
AB-SO-LUTE-LY!!!!!! Dino is a-ma-zing! xoxo The Clarences
@Tom Wlazlinski Your are right Tom. Rascal is very, very under-rated...yep...
I’m 75 and can sing this song like I recorded it! Great song, will last forever!
rascals are not underated , they made it to the hall of fame early. lucked out
Wow!!! Miss real music by real talent!!! Thanks Rascals for the awesome music!!!!
We had some excellent treatment regimens over the radio in the 60's and 70's. This one is my favorite. A bit of lime in the coconut was a groovy musical prescription as well.
WHAT A SOUND WITH 3 INSTRUMENTS, WOW GO DINO

FELIX CAVALIERE is hosting those TIME/LIFE 30 minute commercials for the 1960’s music. Lots of great songs on that program.
Great, thanks. Felix and the guys say it all, great performance, a Real Band!
That is how you perform a hit song!
Best Rascals song.
All of these musicians are highly talented....
We need the DINO CAM[tm] to watch his amazing drumming and, his mechanical delivery...it's like he's toying with us...they're ALL super talented but..
Yep beautiful
I've always considered the rascals tunes, my feel good music.
The drummer is best..
Looooove these guys 💗💗🎸🎸🎸🎼🎶🌹👍💓

This band was one of the greatest. hey never got their full due. They preformed live mostly.
Originally recorded in 1965 by the Olympics. Love this song!

There is nothing pre-recorded on this.
+jsgreen Really? Well if you can find a wire connected to Gene Cornish's electric guitar, then you might have a case.
You're right. My bag. I never got to see them, although they were one of the great live bands. I don't think they toured as much as most big hitmakers.

The Hassles featured a young Billy Joel on keys!
I say "Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah"
Wowsers!
This performance was really good! Thanks for posting!
Cool.
Dino did more with his small kit than any of these so called great drummers with kits the size of Rhode island. Quantity does not mean quality.
always loved this band, and the lead singer has my first name!
Red hot players, red hot tune. Period.
R THEY IN THE R&R HALL OF FAME ? SHOULD BE , WAY TOOOOO MANY NON ROCKERS IN THE HALL OF SHAME. JT FROM MEX
1997
Holy crap they’re really playing live in this one! No playback! 😎
I think just vocals.
Music was prerecorded, vocals were live
Dino Danelli 1944-2022.
I can't hear this song anymore without thinking of the final scene of the "Taming of the Shrew" episode of Moonlighting. That was epic!!
Genius camera work and editing to have dino danelli and barely show him.he should be in every shot
RIP Dino.
GREAT GROUP
Huge song.
The Great Dino Danelli on Drums…
What's the difference between Gene Krupa, Keith Moon and Dino Danelli? I see only one, and it's a big 'un ---- Dino never got a fraction of the recognition for his talent as did the others.
Dino just takes care of business like a goddamn drum machine. One of the all time greats.
mnpd3 the industry didn't acknowledge American talents and covered UK artists like Moon and the Who. Years later all ppl took heed to former so called AM bands. these guys rocked...Little Steven knew and so do we! fantastic thread here!
Agree, I can see the influence
I saw Dino from backstage many times as I played in a (crappy) band that open a bunch of shows for them.

Arthur Indenbaum Dino was a monster on the trap kit. Must have been from Jersey!
Doctor! Mister M.D.!
Dino, W/O the stick juggling. Great sound. Thanks for the memories.
Loving the dog 🐶💜😊
Do you know rocks he's the best
As has been stated, live vocals here (and good ones at that) but all the instrument tracks were pre-recorded. These guys could jam big time, though.
Live? No another lip sync. The pretense of recording live in a studio. Still a great song.
They're definitely miming to the backing track for the instruments, but the vocal isn't the standard from the record.
The section around 1:08 makes me think the vocals might be live. If it's a lip sync, it's a rather unusual, very good one, to a different, more live sounding vocal track.
Kickin!
☮️
Felix is playing base either with his feet or left hand on the B3
geez
The Olympics, the original version rocked it better, although this one rocks too!
Superb
