With very few exceptions, Johnny's spent his entire career as a cover artist, with the main focus on hit songs that were first recorded by the great groups of Motown. I think that's the reason he hasn't yet found his way into the HOF. He is a terrific performer in his own right, both vocally and instrumentally. Listening to his recordings is always a good time for me.

You're 10 years late my friend, this simple masterpiece was released in 1966, then Johnny was the house band after he opened the "Whiskey a' GoGo", in January 64. I'm not trying to correct you friend, just thought you'd like to know and it makes what you wrote even more amazing. Cheers !

Johnny Rivers is the BEST EVER ! ♥️🇺🇸
An unsung rock and roll hero..
Still has the sweetest voice.
good god, the music of my childhood--beyond nostalgic.
Love his voice so much since my teenage Years ❤️
Rivers was sadly overlooked. Really a great musician and singer!
Seen Johnny twice in person..!! Unforgettable nights of music..!!
Should be in the Hall. He made Whiskey Go Go the hot spot back in the 60's & never stopped
Johnny Rivers, I listen at night when reminiscing, thank you.
So amazing, he doesn't look his age at all. Still an awesome voice and performer. Thanks for posting a magic clip.
We are observing the best of the best on here from the 60's, we will never see the likes of them in our lifetime again, so glad I was old enough to appreciate these great humble muscians such as Mr Rivers, just raw and talented.
Wow! Great to see him still playing! And still performing like that! He looks great.
His voice is as good as ever...
Two and a half years ago when this was recorded, he was 74 years old....I hope I sound that good when I'm 74.

Thanks for posting. On my bucket list to see him live.
I saw Johnny in 1985 in 100 degree heat on Auditorium Shores in Austin, Texas. He was his own lead guitarist and didn't miss a like, playing or vocally. A true musician.

I grew up in the 70's and 80's, love Johnny Rivers!
He can take others songs and make them great, but there's no one who can top his voice! He can make you melt.
Amazing how just a few notes can take you back to memories of times and places that stir your soul. Thanks Johnny! You still got it!!
Seriously we need to get him in the RnRHOF ASAP FFSs It would be wonderful to do this before he gets in by means of a tribute. Lets give him the tribute NOW there are far too many tiny talents in the RnRHOF! He is a Giant and He STILL Has it!!!
This song elevated Johnny to a world class musician/singer/songwriter!
Looking and sounding absolutely fantastic
Johnny Rivers is bad ass!!! I love his live at the Whiskey A Go Go albums they are the shit!
Wow. Makes me remember love in the 60's. Sometimes running to and other times running away from it. At 70, love that I have memories and songs and singers that bring them right back.
J.rivers is in the blues hall,of fame.this,man is a great performer.he,'ll never be left out.rock on bro.
A Great American treasure !
Johnny is legend
Brings back great memories on the road in the 70's. I got us all busted in Atlanta LOL !! Johnny wouldn't bail us out hahahaha.
johny rivers is the man
Well....I guess I just got old and feeble or something.....but I cannot watch this without totally breaking down in tears!!!! Maybe because I lost my high school sweetheart to another in high school.....maybe its the medication I'm on......who knows.But when I watch it.....I have to be ready for a total meltdown and tissues!!!!! You still sound incredible Johnny.....and look amazing. Thanks for the great music....lyrics.....and all the memories.Love you.

Dear friend, I am sorry about your bad memories ! We all have a heart break haven't we ? Thank you for your visit. Have a great week.
Always loved Rivers. He still looks great and sounds great !!!
Great Singer/Songwriter ! Had a chance to interview a few years ago.
Just saw him December 1 2018 he sure still has it wonderful musician for a 76 year old does a wonderful show and every time I have seen him he has never failed to take time for autographs
I have always been a fan of Johnny Rivers love his music.
93 khj Los Angeles. That was Johnny Rivers on a million dollar weekend.. the real Don Steele
Still one of the best southern vocalists and greatest guitar players ever!
one word for this artist, TIMELESS
Someone get this man into the hall of fame!!
Love to hear him sing Slow Dancing Swaying to the Music.
He still has a beautiful voice after 50 years! Rivers belongs in the Hall of Fame!! Johnny was ribbed. Good band and excellent drummer!! 🙏♾️♾️🙏
He can still sing..Damn I have always loved him..
I've always liked Johnny Rivers. It's a shame I did not know that he was still performing. He deserves more notoriety since he is indeed a great performer. And wow for his age he is fantastic and looks great. Like Steve Crosno in El Paso used to say....the great Juan Rios ladies and gentlemen. Great ob Johnny. Thank you for your songs .
...nice to see an older performer who had ‘It’...never lost ‘It’, ...isn’t bragging about being’It’...and who performs with style.
Johnny looks and sounds wonderful!
Really enjoyed the throwback. No auto tune and studio mixing.
🎼Those are some of the best chords there!! Pretty 🙌guitar solos! He is just such an awesome singer with incredible talent. 🫶The band and backing vocals are super sweet!🎶
jJR HAS BEEN AT IT SO LONG HE DOESNT REALISE HOW FANTASTIC HE REALLY IS,( 2 KINGS)
Unique vocal style made him one-of-a-kind. Great songs too.
I wish he would play closer to Va. I've waited my 59 yrs to see him. Videos are wonderful (thank God for em) but live is another! 🥰 😎
wow almost 80 and still doin it, one of the best rockers ever
Johnny comes almost every year to a casino on the Texas/Oklahoma state line. I've seen him several times and can't get enough. If you ever have the chance to see him, DO IT! He truly does sound like he always did. This is the first time I've ever seen him with backup singers, though. I love it because the backups were such a big part of his overall sound.

I'm 59 and been a fan my whole life. I got hooked from my aunt (rip). I don't think I want anything more than to see him live singing my all time favorite song. (Along with Baby I need your Lovín) Perhaps after my 3 yr honor college student graduates. It's tuff being a single mom. LOL. Hold on Johnny I'm on the way! (God willin) I live in Virginia. Sorry to get carried away. He does that to me! ☺️

Johnny still has a golden voice and good guitar licks. i wonder if the current bands will be able to do that in 50 plus years. The real deal1
Johnny look out! your hair is lavender! oh, it's the lights, whew! that's good then. ya sound great after all these years and have a sense of humor! lovely!
Wow! sure glad Johnny is still with us, he must have cared for himself. Love it. I was in L.A. off and on at the time he was at the "GO-GO" but never made the scene. Just another real good Italian singer man.

So very talented. He deserves lots of awards. Love his voice. Great songs too. So easy to sing along with them. His music brings back happy memories for me love his music forever❤
Beautiful!
Still sounds great. F**k the Hall of Shame. They told me Johnny didn't fit their criteria. I told them they were full of crap. Johnny and several others are already in my Hall of Fame. Still rockin' at 78!
Enjoyed listening to Johnny Rivers in grammar school, still enjoy listening to him singing in 2022. 😀 👏👏
With very few exceptions, Johnny's spent his entire career as a cover artist, with the main focus on hit songs that were first recorded by the great groups of Motown. I think that's the reason he hasn't yet found his way into the HOF. He is a terrific performer in his own right, both vocally and instrumentally. Listening to his recordings is always a good time for me.
Listen to this from 66 and then recently. No difference. That's a rarity. Extraordinary.
He is the greatest.
