NEW 📀 Wooly Bully - Sam The Sham & The Pharaohs {Stereo} 1965
Музыка
1965.....#2 U.S. Billboard Hot 100, #11 UK Singles Chart, #2 Canada
Original video edited and AI remastered with HQ stereo sound. New remix with reduced reverb.
"Wooly Bully" is a song originally recorded by novelty rock and roll band Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs in 1964. Based on a standard 12-bar blues progression, it was written by the band's frontman, Domingo "Sam" Samudio. It was released as a single on the small Memphis-based XL label (#906) in 1964 and was picked up in 1965 by MGM. The song was recorded at Sam C. Phillips Recording Studio at 639 Madison Avenue in Memphis, the successor to Phillips' original Sun Studio. It proved to be the only recording made at the studio to achieve national success.
"Wooly Bully" was the band's first and biggest hit. It became a worldwide success, selling three million copies and reaching No. 2 on the American Hot 100 chart on June 5-12, 1965, kept off the top by The Beach Boys' "Help Me, Rhonda" and The Supremes' "Back in My Arms Again". "Wooly Bully" went to No. 31 on the Hot Rhythm & Blues Singles chart. The song also reached No. 2 on the Canadian CHUM Charts. The song was the first American record to sell a million copies during the British Invasion and was influenced by the British rock sound which was mixed with traditional Mexican-American conjunto rhythms. It stayed in the Hot 100 for 18 weeks, the longest time for any song in 1965, and was nominated for a Grammy Award. It was named Billboard's number-one song of the year despite never reaching No. 1 on a weekly Hot 100; this feat was achieved again by Faith Hill's "Breathe" in 2000, Lifehouse's "Hanging by a Moment" in 2001 and Dua Lipa's "Levitating" in 2021 (all four hits peaked at #2). On August 5, 1965, the single was certified as gold by the RIAA. It was later included on the band's 1965 album Wooly Bully, MGM SE4297.

I'm 66 Scottish and I just love this song ,I maybe heard it in a film but hey it's fucking brilliant.😊
What a great country, the USA. ❤ from España.
Back in the day in my country we had "guitar parties" at someones house a coupla guys would play acoustic guitars to songs of the present (or past) everyone would join in to sing the songs being played this song Woolly Bully would get sung once (or twice) during the party along with many other great songs everyone had a great night those were the days ❤
As a 72 year Vietnam Vet, i still love to hear this song and this is the 1st time i actually saw the group shake a leg and groove the move on their own song and still a shaker and a mover till this day on this song and will still love it till i hopefully have my other wings if the Good Lord wants me to have them other than my jump wings as a paratrooper, heheheheee!!

I was born in the year 2000 and let me tell you, music derived from 50s 60s 70s and 80s have such a joyful effect on me. It makes me appreciate this kind kf music more. You've done it again, Smurfstools.

Music (and society in general) between 1950 - 2001 was much more carefree and optimistic. It was post-WWII and pre-9/11.

I was 7yrs old when this song came out and love it. Had a huge crush on "Sam" Samudio, it inspired me to want to be a GoGo dancer when I grew up.

I too was 14 in 1965. I remember hearing it on the radio & loving it. I never could quite make out the lyrics, so I just sang what I thought were the words. Thanks so much for the memories from a more simpler & peaceful, & happy time ❤
Man i like to watch him dnce smile
Was in the 5th grade. Always loved it. 🤩
Still getting drunk and skanking to this as a 21 year old in 2024. Good grooves don't go out of style, never.
Haven’t seen this version before. Love it 👏🏻🥰‼️

I have always loved that song, the vocals and that immortal riff running through it. Got a later version by Bad Manners a bit reggae up.
One of the greatest sax solos in the history of rock!
Close to sixty years old since the song came out. I still love it. My crew and I used to play it when we cruised the streets back in the eighties.

I taught children’s church for many years. We had a dog mascot named Rovercomer. This was his theme song. My six ft two son would wear the suit and come tearing into the room to this song to do that day’s skit! Happy memories!😂
How can such a great song be so short?
