I saw them in San Diego in the spring of 1968. They opened for my favorite band - The Byrds - Psychedelic colors projected on the walls and no seats!! I felt honored to be there !

Wow what a groovy show! I would’ve loved to have been there… I was 6 but thanks to older brothers heard this stuff in the era.
The opening guitar vibrato effect is classic garage band sound at it's best. What a great song and the 60's had so much incredible music
One of the stand out songs of the era. A bit of American Rock History that still sounds great. Broke out of Seattle area radio play and became a national hit.
"Too much to Dream" is the greatest psychedelic 60s rock song of all time. For three minutes all is "Peace and Love".
Classic sound of the 60's. These guys were one of the most underrated bands of the era.
"Too Much To Dream" will go down as one of my favourite classic hit songs!!! "Get Me To The World On Time" sounds to me like the Rolling Stones!!

So many of our generation are gone. Viet Nam, drugs, guns, etc. God bless.

Don't forget natural causes ! 😸😸😸😸
I love this psychedelic song for the from the 70s I love this group also this is classical rock it is it is best not like this garbage we have today
Yes Mark was a great bass player, but also a great man in many ways. I and so many of us say thanks for all you did. You will be remembered.
They were such a tight band. I loved them as a kid, still do. Funny to find out years later that Kenny Loggins was in the band, lol. Thanks for posting both songs together!

A purveyor of bland AOR in one of the best garage bands of the 1960's? Some mainstream pop artists started in the counterculture, so it doesn't surprise me. Behind a Carlisle started in a punk band, who evolved into mainstream pop as their musicianship developed.
I was VERY inspired by Mark Tulin....Very Sad we are really losing ALOT of pioneer rockers...And I hate that!!
i tripped to them in the 60's but have never stopped listening to them RIP Mark
I truly had too much to dream last night and it was a mindful experience. It happens about 2-3 times a year and always involves my beloved brother Michael coming back to tell me I am off track in my life and I should..............................The dream is so real..................and I miss him so much!
Never seen this before and these two songs, and The Electric Prunes in general, have always been among my all-time favourites... Brilliant. Thank you so much for posting this
´Too much to DRINK ´ was actually the original title , but the group was made to change it .
With the exception of maybe one song, this is one of the greatest albums of all time!
These two tunes, "Til the End of the Day" (The Kinks) and "I Can Only Give You Everything" by Them did it for me back then. Simply bruisin' !
2 of their greatest songs, great vintage footage!

+Visionary Dreams I agree. My 2 favorites.
A great selection of songs on this channel! Haven't heard most of these in ages, which is a real shame. Like others below, I am glad I grew up in this time period, a time of great creativity.
All fuzzed-up and everywhere to go-go, baby! What I kicked up my heels to waaaay back when. Thanks, Lenny Kaye and Little Steven, for helping to keep this sound alive.

They had some great albums actually. I own a couple on vinyl.
The very first psychedelic song and band 1966.
Yes agood time to be living
Great Songs. Love IT !!! Thanks
LOVE IT!!
As a baby boomer I always thought the sound of the Electric Prunes was soooooooo cool! Not sure if they lasted more than 2 hits but these are the ones I remember.
All fuzzed-up and everywhere to go. Dig this. Some of my best memories are dancing to this one under the strobes and liquid lights. Kelly and Kathy - this one's for us.
my favourite american bands of the 60's were/are the Prunes, the Grape and SRC..........Are you loving me more is awesome too
Great video of a super group with the backward guitar (Too Much Too Dream). I love the pedal tone in "Get Me To The World On Time." I am sorry to learn that Mr. Mark Turin passed away. Thank you for letting me know. I LOVE THE PRUNES!!!!!
The Prunes were the beginings of Metal
Really super sound from that snare/tomtom/tophat/stool.
sorry about his passing ..... these guys had several great songs and sounded original as they come!
Two classic songs from the garage band era of the mid 60s
This video brings back so many memories!!!
Hy lit tv show was pretty awesome had a lot of cool bands world wide!
BEST ACID ROCK SONG EVER!
I forgot all about this one!
Wow !
i had forgotten all about the song, get me to the world on time. This is an awesome upload.
So much music__ flash in the pans...music was evolving so quickly..dave clark five,seeds,blues magoos,electric prunes and so many more
🎸 📻 👻 💥 🎯 🎶 🇺🇸 😎
Great video! I like how the drummer is sitting in a rocking chair. And the shaky tremelo guitar fuzz.
love this song, oldie but a goodie
FABULOUS!! Great video+song choices from a super band. Thanx.
I remember this band. I used to live in the Valley.
Stand out Records Bill turned me onto this A truly GREAT man
First time in 66, bought the alblum. Got warped, put it on Dual turntable shown red light and let the light reflect off record to the walls..... just another night. Adios Mark, thumbs up guy.
I'd only play drums on a rocking chair if my back had given in upon me😂, Too Much To Dream a swell tune.
The drummer in the rocking chair is the late Preston J. Ritter. I wish that I had seen this before he passed away. I would love to know the story behind the rocking chair. I think that Preston would have been about 17 years old in this video.

And drumming onto a footstool kind of makes it obvious.
60'S ROCK!!!!!!
The Prunes got their start up in this part of the country as The Lords. Too Much To Dream got them on national charts, but that was about the most they did as far as recording any hits.
I like "Little Olive" by this band. This one reminds me of a "B" biker flick from the mid-Sixties. Thank you, Lenny Kaye, for putting this monster ("Too Much To Dream") on The Nuggets compilation. Kaye (along with Steven Van Zandt) helped save the psychedelic/"garage" sound. I used to say, "Get Me to the World on Time" right before I watched the evening news (video footage of the Vietnam war, riots in America, and other bummers back then). Sarcasm, baby.
Another one bites the dust, as they say! My Dad (R.I.P.) enlisted out of Fort Hood waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day (like, 1941!!!!)
Sorry to hear Mark died R.I.P Mark you will be missed.
It hits me 45 years later: This is so sexy!
That rocking chair stool drumming is so effin' cool. WoW
Not I. I heard it when it was first recorded. Back then, we were much more in touch with what bands were saying in their lyrics (even when tripping) than people are today. peace
very cool
Weird times they were only on the first two lps the rest were a different group. It shows. 2 of the best records out of America. Neither weak soul or country and western god you lot must have hated them.
i had too much to dream
Me too, It really sounds like that is what he is saying
GIVES ME THE SHITS EVERY TIME I LISTEN TO THEM !
yes, the Grape....same here.
grande!
How fast could my Ford fairlane straight 6 go on I-70, 1am, WLS , on my way back to Purdue......
EVERY NIGHT!
Fantastic group!Another psychedelic version of the song was made byDEVILED HAM.
agree!
Oh,man - the rocking chair drummer is the bomb !! Wish more groups would stop taking themselves so GD seriously, and just have fun like these guys did.
The drummer is sitting in rocking chair LOL

How about the video where Ringo is late getting to the performance, even though the drums were on all along, and then sitting on an exercise bike instead of drumming! Now THAT takes talent!!

Yes ♥♥♥♥♥ ♪♪♪♪♪♪ : )
I always thought it was 'I had too much to 'DRINK' last night. Another childhood myth busted.
calcification sunrise 😍
I wonder if that is a true '58 - '60 Les paul standard. It should be since this was before they started to re-issue them in about 1970. Hope that guy still has that guitar. It's worth about $300,000 today!

It is a 1960 Les Paul and for sale at Reverb.com
that's right.
That drummer plays a great bench.

You'll see some groups fooling around when they're lip synching, as these guys are, but still the rocking chair is a pretty cool effect. I've never seen anyone do that.

tough.
Wow ,where is the bigsby Les paul today ???
Kyrie Eliason from easy rider soundtrack is so good. 1st heard from big bro's lp ( RIP. 16 in1974. Pentobarbital i.v.) crazy times. 4 yrs older than me. Since I said that, I'll say this...he had a twin who held on for 9 years...1/2 of him was gone. Hanged himself in our hallway. I'm 58 and it still kicks my ass. Moved back to TN/USA from Congo in 66. Culture- shocked the hell out them. Hell, we weren't cognizant of what color anyone was. Unlike the liberals/Democrats of 2020. They pigeonhole everybody by race, religion and their own racist bias! I'm white, therefore a racist. 🤣🤣🤣 ANY race can be racist against any other race. Fact. Doesn't seem like Burn Loot Murder or Baal Lucifer Molech like whitey too much. That's racism. Doh! Chinese hate Japanese. Jamaicans hate Haitians. It's been around for millennia and cannot be eradicated while sin still exists in this world. Hard stop.
LoL I always thought he is singing too much drinks last night
FOR LITTLE STEVEN'S UNDERGROUND GARAGE!
Man!!! When you can get those kinda sounds out of a stool and the arm-rest of a wooden chair, why waste money of a kit? They even had cordless guitar and mic connectors. (Ya think may be they were going overboard to spoof the mandatory lip-sinking they had to do? Gotta love it!!!

Sorry! There was a mic cord.
Amen, my brotha! *You did mean FORT Ord, right?*
And the guitarist in the back on the left looks like he's from outer space.
Will you look at that drum kit!!!!!
it was a 1960 LP. dont know if he still has it though.
This was filmed in Philadelphia right?
Miming here - no guitar cords
Where was this and what year. Very few videos give the year
Their 2 best songs. All lip synch theatrics. Preston Ritter is' pruning out' drumming rom a rocking chair! (On a stool behind a roller duck?)
Is that a Gretch drum set?
Oh too funny with the rocking chair!!
🔥💨🎶👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇷🇺
Heard Ulver's cover?
Lead guitarist looks about seven feet tall.
the drummer is playing a stool!,not a bench.,give him credit for playing the right furniture!
