    No one provided more fun and diversified music than Tommy James.......Absolutely the king of great pop music.......His songs are just as hot as ever even today.....He sounds just as good as he always has. Exceptional talent and entertainer. As far as American music, only the Beach Boys comes close to the appeal of Tommy James and the Shondells. Tighter and Tighter was also his, another great song.

    After moving from Indiana(see previous comment), NYC, and then Glen Ridge NJ, many of my friends from Clifton NJ tell me they knew Tommy..their kids would go Halloween trick-or-treating at Tommy's house and gaze at the golden records adorning the wall!

  • @greu52
    @greu52 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Tommy at The Bitter End in NYC...if you haven't been there, it is a very intimate setting, like a small restaurant. My sister was best friends with Tommy's cousin in South Bend, Indiana back in the 60's...met him at her house, playing billiards. Very nice guy.

  • @kevindoran948

    Actually, as a former pro guitarist myself (I was 20 years with The Righteous Brothers), Tommy was and is a very under rated guitarist. You should hear some of his stuff after the Shondells. Really great guitar work by him.

    • @danjimmie0704
      @danjimmie0704 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      This entire Bitter End concert is fantastic. Another viewer said that Tommy might be playing to dubbed tracks. If he is he has every detail covered. I don't think he is - he's just that damn good!

      I'm not a guitarist, but in Tommy James book he mentions something about the way he plays chords is much easier for him than the usual way of playing them.

      @@jurtes3652 check out the Billie Joe Armstrong with his kids version. All I can say is wow I haven't heard this song since the 70's and thought is bubble gum pop.
      But it really brings memories of my first kiss at 11 years old
      Now in going I'm learning it on my guitar, oddly coincidental it's a Fender Jaguar,
      Great song

    • @Katy-ye1zr
      @Katy-ye1zr 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      He wasn't so old when he they did this gig. There are some that get better, others have health problems along the way. John Sebastian (Summer in the City, Do you Believe in Magic, Did you Ever have to Make up Your Mind and many others lost his voice years ago sadly- still performing last I checked. He still has wonderful stories to tell about those days - they're here on youtube. So these 60's babes are old(er) than I but not forgotten. Earlier I was crying due to health issues I cannot beat but the music of yesteryear from doowop onward , Creedence Clearwater, Zeppelin, Kinks, Steely Dan, Stevie wonder, Mac.... SO many others without room enough to list - make the sun shine for me again. I'm glad for the ones still around even if they sound like frogs when they sing (Dylan). One day I'll go see them at the biggest concert of all - in the sky.

When I need a break from being 60 years old I put on this CD and I'm a teenager again😁. I just have to be careful the old knees and hips don't pop out of their sockets😆🤣😂😅

      I remember sneaking out one night at about 13 when this song was out and friends and I swiped a water melon and we ended up smashing it on the road and diving in to, of all things - BLACKBERRY BUSHES! Thorns and all. - and barefoot. Later the boys came around but I was a little young yet. I learned to make out just before my 14th birthday. What stamina! Couldn't do that now for sure. LOL
