I was 18 when this song became a massive AM radio hit. Going down the highway at 100 mph in my '58 Ford with this song turned way up was beautiful! It is still one of my top five favs.

I had a '58 Ford when I was 18. It had a 352 with manual transmission and overdrive and it was a blast on the highway. The radio in that car had vacuum tubes although I believe that instant on transistor radio was optional.

"Pop Gear," aka, "Go Go Mania," a British made movie is where the original video is from. It is called "Gold Pants Dance." From 1964-65 when all things "Gold," were in vogue because of the success of "Goldfinger."

I can't believe they found all my former girlfriends to make this video. It is nice to see them again!

Best video of this tune that I've ever seen, outstanding!!

The ladies are 70+ now, very nicely choreographed.

I love this song for ... 50 years. The ladies are f*** good. Count five meets Space Patrol and make a Fantastic Adventures of the dancing Spaceships.

I knew these guys. At least most of them. They were absolutely a bitchin' garage band, That's why they're in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame These guys dealt with the realities of the '60s. Vietnam and drugs (sorry Roy). Johnny Michalski was a successful conscientious objector (thank God) and became a very successful contractor. Roy Chaney was missing a big toe from a childhood bike accident and couldn't be inducted (although I think he would have been a MF, man). He's also a very successful contractor. Sean (John ) Byrne stayed in college (S-2 deferment) and became an accountant for Montgomery Ward. He sang Psychotic Reaction. I never met Ken Ellner or Butch Atkinson. Music is about people who make it big. or don't. I'm a Count Five fan.

This is the kind of music you hear in a Tarantino film when things are about to get REALLY crazy.

I want to live in that world!

One of those songs that seemed ahead of its time back then. Garage metal in all its glory. One of my top ten as a 60s kid. The video works perfectly with the song. Great video. Lets see....I like the short hair brunette in blue with the semi-robotic/hypnotic moves followed by the woman in purple.

Bought this in 1966 on the pye label and still got it.

this actually is from the film go go mania aka pop gear an obscure 60's teen british film to capitalize on the beatles fame it also was mainly a "music video" of the top group/singers of the time tied in with a now well know child molester Jimmy Saville

I hope I didn't put you off by my response to your text to me. It meant more than you can know. I just can't help being wary. About some of the things you said. A response from you would be welcome. Your play list is awesome, btw. Keep rocking! Music has gotten me through some of my darkest hours. Music is magic. And healing. Peace,my friend.

West Side Story moves to a psychedelic garage tune.

This is CLASSIC!

I can see Richie Finestra (Bobby Cannavale) smashing back a single-malt Scotch! @ C.B.G.B. on The Bowery in 1973 when this come up on the Rock-Ola! jukebox, and Hilly Kristal informs him of the inspiration behind the club name: "CBGB & OMFUG stands for 'Country, Bluegrass, Blues and Other Music for Uplifting Gormandizers.'"

Considering the year this song was conceived, written, learned and then recorded (we forget that we sometimes first hear a new song 2 years after it was even conceived and for a garage band with no record label contract demanding 3 new albums a year (requiring 30 songs total to be written, learned, rehearsed all before it's recorded in lightning speed) the idea this sound was born as early as '63 makes you wonder who the real influences were because this song pre-dates Rubber Soul I believe and they were an LA band with only an LA following. Its sounds like a Stones song, but dare I say? Better? All I know is this sound that defines the pre-psychedelic period in rock music almost invents what the heavy bluesy psychedelic sound would become. And I dont think LSD was the influence. Just pure originality by a group that influenced but never saw the fame all of the bands that made their own versions of it, but still used the same beat and even vocals. I mean this guy could have been the lead singer of The Animals an sang Rising Sun just as well. My dad graduated from HS in '66 and was from upstate NY and saw the Stones when they toured the U.S. in '66 and every tour after and he attended Woodstock. When I played this so ng for him 2 years ago he said he'd never heard it before, and was wow'd by it, as if he were 17 hearing it for the first time. His old music instincts from that time hit him.

KZread does do a good job of keeping One-Hit-Wonders alive. I have to admit that when I first heard this song on the radio I thought that it was the latest from The Yardbirds. Was this dance routine a 'cut scene' from Goldfinger?
