The Beau Brummels were a highly under rated band! I remember this wonderful song!

One of the most underrated bands that there ever was!!! These guys rocked!!!

A very simple but truly great song. I still like it this many years later.

Such an innocent time with great music!

They lived right down the street from us on Moneta way. My sister and her crazy friends were their personal fan club

Used to love listening to this album when I was a kid. Good tunes.

Ed Ames, who stepped in with his 'Mingo' wig on, was also a vocalist of renown at that time as a family member of the Ames Brothers singing group (cf).

Such fun everyone including big stars Ed Ames and Pearl Bailey pitching in...loved the laid back feel. Beau Brummels brilliant as always

Ron Elliott was diabetic and his blood sugar levels posed problems while touring with the band. Restaurant food was not diabetic-friendly and was geared for general diet. Nice to see the Brummels fulfill their commitment on the Mike Douglas Show. It was a popular daytime syndicated tv show that gave them good exposure in 1965. They took the ribbing very well from Mike, Ed Ames and Pearl Bailey.

Such a classic very rare video

Ron Elliot and Sal Valentino were a dynamite duo

From the old KYW Philadelphia studios on Broad St. Douglas' show was in the basement studio with about a 200 seat capacity. KYW at that time was a converted radio facility. The Douglas show was a Westinghouse production first originating from Cleveland and later moved to Philadelphia. It was likely the last national show to be produced in Philadelphia or for that matter, Cleveland.

Ed Ames made a very attractive looking Indian. Mike Douglas looked like Bob Hope in drag. Pearl Bailey was her usual gracious self. Totally fun way to bridge the generation gap. BTW The Beau Brummels' had a couple of really fine hits -- Great Sound!

Priceless!! Thank You.

They played at my temple in 1965 and then 10 years later I saw them at the Amazing Grace coffee house on the Northwestern campus.

They were great. I remember them like yesterday and the words. I hope that's not a sign of something bad.

Yes Yes Mui Bueno- were the Beau Brummell - even tho Minot was a small town- because of the Air Force Base( met my husband 53 years strong) we got a lot of music entertainment, these Honeys at the Fair. Saw Roy Oberon 3 times down town . So many good groups. Gene Pitney- Johnny Rivers trashed a hotel room & was asked not to come back. Days gone bye & missed by many.

PC doesn't offend.It indicates staying open to a group, instead of being closed off like nazis. Hence, friends don't need it or anyone with common understanding. PC role is to offer protection, because racists attack so much. No one minds another culture adorning Indian nose piercings; sarongs, jewelry, henna or pants they invented. Focus on the truth for a change. Minorities dislike racists who must "adopt" their styles to make it acceptable. Yet, the same style is still hate inducing for minorities.Also, racists don't mind if non-racists wear cross-cultural attire. So, the public knew about this "subtle" racism that gets people beat up around the clock somewhere. Indian clothing is renamed french fashion, to give no credit to minorities, and to give low heed to presumably "low" minorities, in order to serve the racist masses too. This was the crude standard that made blacks stand up against having black hair being "fashion" for caucasians, but "dirty" Still, they expected people they roasted, for wearing dreadlocks, to show understanding or commonality, and help to become peacemakers, but they refused. Instead, they made sure to stick with the "olden rule" to pretend they owned it. This is how it became muddled. Yet, the clarity remained, and they won. Aside, inventions, fashion and music, were meant to spread around. Inventors were special and have nothing to do with the rest of their group that invented nothing. They expect to sell music etc everywhere. Just make sure to like "your" version, btu not deny that blacks had something to do with it for the sake of pretending it's "yours", and feigning "building" everything to attack long time minorities and Natives.

A lot of groups were teased about their hair and clothes,back in the day (the guys were anyway),so it wasn`t something new to them. Most took it in stride and still cashed their checks.

Great days

thats a great tune and it was all in good fun to promote the band and at the time it was always welcome for fans to see the band on tv but gosh it was nearly painfully excruciating to have to watch today

Amazing what a band will do to promote and push a their band and and their song in in a 1960's crowded field of great bands including the greatest of all , the Beatles.

I Love LIKE Bea Brummlsea

Yeah they were okay there lyrics was great but you're right they were underrated

Mike Douglas' guests on the show were Ed Ames and Pearl Bailey, with special musical guest The Beau Brummels. They pre-rehearsed this lttle adlib after Elliot informed the group that he couldnt make the gig. Mike Douglas was always hamming it up, upstaging his guests and butchering their acts, which were usually lip-synced prerecorded numbers anyways. Douglas would sometimes do his own solo singing spots when he needed to stretch the show for time, botching the popular tunes of the day. Merv Griffen did the same crap on his show, whenever a guest called out as a no-show.

How embarassing for the BBs. They didnt deserve that. They were a serious group.
