Best band of the 60s and all time! These guys are so freakin' adorable! Peter, Barry, Derek, Karl, & Keith are my music heroes.

Loved listening to Herman,s Hermits as a child. At 63, still do! The music today isn,t even music.

HH were great - but don't worry, there's plenty of good new music around (I'm biased because I'm making some of it - at 61 - I bet you'd like my original "I Met Her Yesterday")

I saw this on Ed Sullivan last night; did not remember the song. I never had a Herman's Hermit 45 or LP ~ but I like a lot of their songs.

Sounds familiar. I was ten years old in '65, and thanks to my older sister (six years older) I was immersed in the British Invasion from Day One. Loved that music then and love it now!

Sweet cut!! It's the British Invasion baby, DIG IT!!

I can hear the Buddy Holly influence.

There are a number of live Hermans Hermits performances from 1965 onwards available on KZread, and they come across as a very tight competent band, who would have been more than good enough to work in the recording studio. I know, like the Monkees, session musicians were used initially, but the Hermits were allowed to play on recordings later in their career'

My Husband resembled Peter Noon very much. I fell head over heels for him a first sight. It was lovely back then.

A fun song by Herman's Hermits! It charted at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #15 on the UK Singles chart in 1965. The actual date of this episode is October 24, 1965. The date in the description at this writing is a re-run broadcast.

Actually, 1966 is probably an accurate year. CBS was starting to videotape the Ed Sullivan Show and other shows in color in 1966. If The Beatles had agreed to appear on Ed Sullivan's show in 1966, many people would have seen them live in color for the first time.

@@jamescalifornia2964 Few points, I know the sound of the instruments on the actual recording, and the sound is definitely different and live. You can definitely see the wires from the guitars from the bass player and rhythm guitar on left. Plus, watch the rhythm player strum on his up picks. The sound is right in sync with the music. I admit that some groups did play only semi live on Ed Sullivan, or they prerecorded the instruments prior to the performance, while they sung live.

Always a fun group to listen to! Visually, this is quite interesting. With the gray backdrops and flooring, and the dark suits, the production appears to have been designed with black & white televisions in mind. Very curious in a time when the networks were heavily advertising their color content.

This was from one of the very first color episodes of the Sullivan show, taped in CBS's Hollywood studio. The very next week it switched back to New York where the Ed Sullivan Theatre had been equipped for color production, and using brand new Norelco color cameras, which were half the size of the huge RCA TK-41s, which CBS hated having to use as RCA owned their arch rivals NBC. I'm guessing CBS hadn't completely finished fitting out the studio for color, hence the grey backdrops. Interestingly, the last black and white Sullivan show featured the Beatles performing live during their 1965 US tour. For some reason they didn't perform on Sullivan on their 1966 tour, maybe Epstein wanted too much money, or Ed was worried about the public backlash following John Lennon's remarks about the Beatles being more popular than Jesus, which ironically was probably true at the time. Fortunately we got to see them in glorious NTSC color later that year in Tokyo, when Japanese TV taped two of their concerts at the Budokan, which also caused of lot of controversy.

Yup, they were a real rock and roll band, and many of their songs were quite good, including this one. I think people who put them down are judging them based on "I'm Henry the VIII I am" and assuming they were just a novelty band. But that just isn't true.
