RIP Gayle McCormick. Did a couple solo albums; but this was her biggest claim to fame. 100% deserved to be bigger. 🙏🏼😔♥️
She never got her due.
Hopefully they'll spin her solo hit from '71, "It's a Crying Shame" (recording as Gayle McCormick, not Smith).
She makes Heart sound like punks lol
@thomastimlin1724 ...not at all. Ann Has more range and power .
@@jdw5678 I Love that Song! 🥰
This was originally recorded in 1961 by the Shirelles and made the Top Ten. The Beatles (with an emotional John on lead) covered this memorably on one of their early albums. They loved performing girl group songs. This groovy Smith cover from 1969 was a #5 hit.
And Karen Carpenter did it! It's beautiful!!
@@michaelasay8587 Yes, in a very different style.
@@michaelasay8587Did she? Never knew that!
The versatility of the songwriting of Burt Bacharach and Hal David! Their songs worked for pop, rock, soul/R&B, country, and even jazz. This is just about the most rocking version of a Bacharach-David tune I can recall.
A format that might work is to react to all three versions in one day of reactions: The Shirelles, the early Beatles cover, and this one. Three very different styles, but the song works (props to Bacharach and David).
She Sings It Better Than Anyone Else!!
disagree completely, this loses the emphasis of the song on the title line dispite having a nice late sixties hippy groove. Shirley sings the song as intended without over indulging for the sake of effect, making the Shirelles version work better except for the crap organ solo.
@@keithwarrington2430 "For the sake of effect" completely diminishes the power and bluesy tone that Gayle McCormick sang with. Smith was a rock group that adapted this song to their way of performing. The Shirelles were a pop group who sang the song in that late 50s/very early 60s style that so many girl groups had. I like each version for different reasons. Denigrating the talents of one singer does not elevate the talents of another.
I do love the original version by The Shirelles. Before I even heard that version, being a Beatles fan from the '60s, I heard it by The Fab Four first and I liked that version as well. In spite of having a sore throat, John Lennon does a pretty good vocal delivery. But this version is a powerhouse! One thing that all great bands do is make a song their own, and they certainly did that here. Heart should have covered this version, I can hear Ann Wilson belting this out!
Gayle McCormick sang her heart out on this! She was awesome! And I'll go ahead and say it, the lady was easy on the eyes too. (Classic movie star looks to be exact). She was a beautiful and talented woman indeed! Gayle passed away in 2016 R.I.P.
The late, great Gayle McCormick sang the SCHTUFF out of this song!
Karen Carpenter did a beautiful version!
Gayle McCormick RULES!!!! 🤘🤘🔥
[Flesh & Blood
was her finest outing, EVER!!
- Featuring: "Slide" Hyde
& Chuck Findley
of The Wrecking Crew on horns! 🤘🤘🔥]
For SURE!
Just another example of the great music we heard on the radio in the 60s and 70s. We were so lucky to have grown up at that time.
I was just thinking the same thing. It's so fun reliving ALL this great music with these young music lovers 😊
My absolute favorite rendition of this song. She could really sing, huh? Wow!
Have you heard Karen Carpenter do it?!! It's beautiful!!
Her name is Gayle McCormick ... and yeah, she killed this Bacharach-David tune ... also recorded by Shirelles and the Beatles and others.
I was surprised to see it was Mack David, not Burt's usual songwriting partner Hal David.
Thanks-thought it was older song but couldn’t recall the original.
Karen Carpenter did a beautiful version!!
An all time favorite! One of those songs that has to be repeated a time or two when it comes up in a playlist. Gayle McCormick is the vocalist.
How on earth can a voice like that not be better known???
Wow, I forgot how much I loved this song! She could sing!!
As you viewers will tell you, this Burt Bachrach-written song was one of the Shirelles great hits in 1961 and then was covered by the Beatles in 1963 and was on their album Introducing the Beatles released in the U.S. in early '64 when Beatlemania "exploded". The Shirelles' version was so perfect that the Beatles did it exactly the same, note for note. You've heard the Shirelles once but you should hear more of their great classic hits.
That's where I heard that! The Beatles! I didn't even know the Shirelles did it first! Thanks! It was puzzling me!
This song was written by Burt Bacharach, Luther Dixon, and Mack David.
The first recording, I heard of it was by The Shirelles. But the Beatles have an amazing version of it with Lennon taking the lead vocals. 🕊❤️🎼
One of the greatest renditions of this song!!
Another golden oldie to check out from late 1970 is Indiana Wants Me by Canadian singer/songwriter R Dean Taylor.
Cool song.
Boy, this song brings me back. She can sing ( sang) her voice is so powerful , great pick guy’s.
Gayle McCormick is one of those too-little-known, far-less-celebrated-than-she-should-be, utterly magical vocalists & artists!
Gayle deserves FAR more attention and notice than she EVER received in her lifetime!
🔥💜💜
[My personal favorite is her solo album: FLESH & BLOOD [from 1972].
Her solo work tops her time with: Smith, by a long-shot!
🤘🤘]
- Truly: you owe it to yourselves to explore her, further!
💜💜🤘🤘
I adore her (and its nice to see that there are a cordon of people who do, as well (despite the vast majority being, primarily, unaware of her talent and skill and musical output!))! 🤘🤘
🤘🤘🤘

Song Recommendations [from: Flesh & Blood]:
"Whoever's Thrilling You (Is Killing Me)"
[A classic song by the LEGENDARY Allen Toussaint!
First released by ...I believe it was a singer named Ernie Kador (but I think he had a stage-name. ...I forget the deets. (Apologies).🤷)
Gayle McCormick was the second to release it [and she kills it all up and down the planet!🔥🔥🔥🔥].
The song was, later, covered by: Rufus (the band), as well [with Chaka Khan singing lead].🔥🔥 ].
"Take Me Back"
and
"Near You""
[cuts 1 & 2 on the album] are, also" undeniable! 🔥🤘🤘
...But it's nearly impossible to "go wrong" with Gayle McCormick. ❤❤🔥❤🔥😍
Great song! It was originally performed by The Shirelles, and covered by The Beatles as well.
Karen Carpenter did a beautiful version!
@@michaelasay8587Karen Carpenter did a beautiful version of anything she sang!
I bought the lp A Group Called Smith when it came out and still have it.
I love the way she belts it out at the end BAby its You, yes it is
THIS SONG IS DAMN FIRE!!!!!
I love blasting this in the car.
Yeah, this is a crank it up to 11 and rip off the knob type of song.
One of my favorite songs ever. Takes me back to high school.
The reaction from both of you on the big power (5:35), Baby It's You...Priceless!! That's what you look for in a reaction video...REACTION. Oh yea, that was it! Cheers\=/\=/
Agree, I just don't like the constant Janis Joplin comparisons.. I don't think she sounds anything like her.
Such a fantastic song from a fantastic era. Amber I can tell you felt it to the bone!
So soulful, too!
OH WOW! I had completely forgotten this song. Great to hear it again. 🔥
KILLER tune. Props for goin here.
Fabulous vocal from Gayle - bought 2 of Smith's albums on the strength of this track - underrated band !!
This is my favorite rendition.
Amber knows her fashion! Bell bottoms, also hip huggers, groovy stuff!☮
I've been suggesting this absolute classic for several years now,, Because i knew you would enjoy it..So glad to see you finally react to it.
Gayle McCormick is the singer's name. Basically, a one-hit wonder. She left the band shortly for a solo career and had a semi-hit "It's A Crying Shame". Jay, parachute pants was in the eighties made from the same material as parachutes thus the name.
This song is so awesome, I haven't heard it for awhile. I gave me chills soooo goooood
I,ve never heard this version before and I love it!
You guys continue to amaze me with finding my favorite music that I grew up with. The 5 year window you reference was in my youth and the music was simply amazing, as you are finding out
Rob Squad Reactions, This video is fantastic! I liked it a lot!
❤❤ Smith ❤❤
I know this song from Quentin Tarantino’s movie “death proof” 🩵
Facts!! Sydney Poitier nearly rolled her head off swinging to this!! 😁
I knew it! Had to go thru my records, but I DID have it on vinyl! I have this song on a record called 'The Greatest Hits of Right Now!. (so you can guess about when it came out....about 1970 ish).
Graduated high school in 1972. You two are so right, late sixties, early seventies were the best!
Their only top 40 hit. Originally by The Shirelles. Music - Burt Bacharach, Lyrics - Mack David and Luther Dixon.
Hal David?
Haven't heard this in years. Thank you!!
What a groove and vibe...I am sure I have heard this before but truly never listened to it until now. Keep the 60's and early 70's coverage coming, you young, beautiful Americans!
Love, Love, Love
Think I suggested this somewhere online, but still have my album! Gayle has a great voice! They did get quite a bit of air time on TV but this was their main hit that started it all. This one got to #5 on the charts. She passed at 67 which is still kinda young in my boomer life! What am I Gonna Do and Take a Look Around are good ones to listen to. As a group they didn't last that long and Gayle went solo.
I love this song so much. Gayle McCormick can belt!
This is a great song. It is done so well.
I was a kid when this song was popular and played it many times on my lil stereo.
Yep, this is a groove.
I love this song!!!
Great reaction and pick! I really liked the sound of this when it came out way back when. I think Jay was referring not only to bell-bottom pants, but to the elephant bells. Extra cloth below the knees really flared them out.
Gayle used to sing in bands at my high school in the mid 60 in st, louis
so did Michael MacDonald
The rapper. The jaggerz
This was so awesome! Love her voice. Love your reactions!
Yeeesss!!! Yay!! I have loved this song for so long and her voice is so incredibly strong but I had never even heard of them until this showed up on a movie soundtrack (Deathproof) and I couldn’t believe I had never heard it before. Meaning, I can’t believe this isn’t a staple song you play for your children to be like “This is how you do it!” Ugh. So good. ❤❤❤❤❤
Love this song
Gayle McCormick, another great artist from St. Louis. Home of Chuck Berry, Michael Mc Donald, Miles Davis, Ike and Tina Turner, David Sandborn, who just passed, John Hartford and many more!
I had not heard David Sanborn passed. Very sad it feels like we lose one every week now.
I know, eventually, y'all come to my favs...and this is one of my all time. Such a great bump n grind groove...and the vocals. Remake of a one of those weepy girl songs of the early sixties but turn around with a lot of soul mixed in. Back in the day, id ask my mom to turn it up while riding in her Oldsmobile
I actually listened to this song a few hours ago. Nice that you guys know it now too. (I had a big crush on her back in high school, haha) Peace!
I have always loved this tune. Kinda slow and funky and sultry at the same time.
Wow! I'm very familiar with The Beatles cover of this song. But not only have I never heard this version, I've never even heard of this group - and I actually prefer this one! Wow!
Now you need to play the original Shirelles version.
💯
One of my favorite songs.
The Beatles did this song on their first album sessions in 1963. It's a very different but super cool version in its own right.
60s music is “ fever tree “ San Francisco girls is groovy too
Wow, I was so addicted to this song when I first heard it. This one got past me for decades. I didn't discover it until 2002. It became my all-time favorite song, until Evanescence finally took over in 2006 with "My Immortal.". That was my #1 for several years. I take this stuff seriously. 😁
The Shirelles and The Beatles did this song as well, but Smith had the biggest hit with it.
That hoarse, whiskey voice! Love this!
I thought this song was long gone and forgotten. I loved it so much when it came out!❤❤❤
BOY does she kill it @5:34 WOW WHAT A VOICE THANKS GUYS
Back then when this song was on the air, the band's name was "A Group Called Smith." There English rock band who's name is "The Smiths." On the soundtrack album for the movie "Easy Rider", she sang "The Weight."
I had Gayle McCormick's cassette with the song "It's A Crying Shame"
Damn, I’m old and I don’t remember ever hearing this! She could saaang! (and, uh, yeah😏)
WOW so miss Gayle McCormick. What a wonderful voice. Gone to soon. Gayle had a solo tune "It's a Cryin' Shame" that received some national airplay. Her cover of the Leon Russel / Delaney & Bonnie Bramlett song "Superstar" is quite good.
The late great Gayle McCormick. Thanks for this. Great song.
she's very pretty
I know the Shirelles and the Beatles versions but I've not heard this one before, I'm loving it.
Adele performed this song with Burt Bacharach (who wrote the song) in concert in 2008. You should really check that out!
Good song good reaction
Great tune! Great cover!! Great voice! She was definitely someone’s idea to cash in on the Janis style in ‘69.
Back in the early 60's I was watching a local TV "talent show" in St. Louis on Sunday morning. One of the contestants was a teenage singer who was obviously very good. She won the contest for that day. A few years later she pops up in 1968 as the lead singer for Smith, and has a One Hit Wonder that is still classic even today. The music industry never quite knew what to do with Gayle, and after several years of being screwed around she basically called it quits and came back home to St. Louis. But she left us with such great memories of that year, and many of us discovered our teenage hormones while watching her perform on TV.
RIP Gayle McCormick (1948-2016) The former lead singer for the rock band Smith, who's biggest hit in 1969 was a cover of Burt Bacharach's "Baby It's You", which hit #5. Smith had 2 more entries on Billboard's Hot 100 chart in 1970; "Take A Look Around" (#43) and "What Am I Gonna Do" (#73). And even bubbled under at #101 with "Comin' Back To Me (Ooh Baby). Smith broke up in 1971 and McCormick went on to a solo career. Her first solo song "Gonna Be Alright Now" went to # 84 (Hot 100) & at # 20 (Adult Contemporary) in August of 1971. Her first Hot 100 entry, "It's A Cryin' Shame", missed the Top 40 in 1971, peaking at #44 (Here's a video of it: th-cam.com/video/TRkvhoduIxI/w-d-xo.html) Her next entry in 1972, a cover of The Miracles' "You Really Got A Hold On Me", fared no better, getting as high as #98. McCormick's version has a soul/blues infusion that deserved a better chart fate. In 1973, McCormick married and relocated to Hawaii. Her last song was "Coming In, Out Of The Rain" that went to # 46 (Adult Contemporary) on Shady Brook Records (released only as a 45 single) in October of 1975 & that was her last swan song. She eventulally retired to suburban Saint Louis where she passed away in 2016.
'The' rock cover of this tune. I had a pair of elephant bell-bottoms. Big but not parachute pants.😀 ☮🧡🎶
This was a big hit in the summer of 1969.
its been awhile since i have heard this one,,,,right on....... and as always thanks to the rob squad for the music
I first hear this song in a Tarantino movie and fell in love with it! It's been a top fave of mine ever since.
You need to react to the band; "The Stories", song; Brother Louie. A great, and often forgotten 70's jam!! ✌️😎
As many have let you know already this singer is Gayle McCormick. Smith wasn't around long and she did have a bit of a solo career. I heard the original version by the Shirelles and the Beatles cover when I was little and just starting to listen to music. Then this version came along and blew me away. What a voice. There are many versions since then, and I love the Shirelles and Beatles ones, but this one is my favorite.
Someone else has already mentioned that the original was recorded by the Shirelles. However, if you listen closely to that version, you will hear the composer, Burt Bacharach's voice doing the background vocals with the other singers. The recording was supposed to be a demo, but was released as it was.
I knew you would eventually get around to Gayle and this song. I recommended it to you a couple years ago. Gayle could sure belt it out. Glad you liked it.
My mom and aunt sang the hell outta this song. Didn’t know who sang it
The Smiths.... How Soon Is Now has to be their absolutely best song.
Great reaction, first time I’m hearing this song as well.
Now you got ahold of one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! I've been waiting for this one. Gayle McCormick was a seriously great singer and this is the best version of the song, even better than The Beatles' cover.
Please try Bjork's 1990s cover of a 1940s song called "It's Oh So Quiet." That's another voice that will surprise you. You'll love her.
A classic song originally done by the Shirelles. I do remember this version knocked it out of the park.😅
Gayle McCormick has a sorely underappreciated voice...!!!! she should have had another 10 hits...!!!!
On TH-cam there's a real live version that nobody can absolutely miss !!!.
Joe Cocker - "Woman To Woman". Jay might recognize the riff as it was sampled by both 2Pac and EPMD.
