Sesame Street was on plenty of lsd and other things back then to, when they took psychedelics out of children's television, stuff got mediocre and shallow fast
I love this that I remember the Banana splits is such a comfort. One of the biggest influences in my life is the banana splits. They were great at a time when I needed them.
You can say what you want about the Banana Splits, the studio musicians involved were amazing, including Frank Zappas lead singer later in 1973 Ricky Lancelotti.
One of my favorite Banana Splits songs! I'd love to see a "proper" CD release of all their songs. There was a CD some years ago, a "twofer" with "The Beagles", but I believe the entire thing was mastered impropoerly, the SPEED was "off", as everything sounded to me like it was runnning TOO FAST.
One Direction: **exists** Banana Splits: psh, we’re already four directions right here! See? One banana.. two banana.. three banana.. and there’s four! That makes a bunch, and so will many more!
For those who don't know-The Banana Splits show was released on DVD in 2007 in the UK ONLY (Region 2). It generally won't play in your average DVD player-but there are ways(if you have a dvd burner on your computer you can get DVD ripping software that can remove the codes). Also-these are the syndicated half hour versions of the season 1 episodes-as this is how the show was seen in the UK. Warner Brothers "supposedly" is having issues recreating the original hour long version of the show as the master elements are not in the best of shape and, with the demise of DVD sales, it's unlikely to happen. There are some clips of Season 2 on youtube. I don't know where they came from, but they mostly look and sound great. Enjoy them while you can. No doubt someone will take them down.
I have an old Venturer brand portable player that I once looked up, and found a way to unlock all regions on it. You never know what kind of little secrets some companies will stash on their stuff.
Listen to this and "Wait Til Tomorrow" and THEN try telling me that the Banana Splits was just another '60s kids' show. I won't believe a word you say.
Completement hallucines, les meck les plus deglingues des series pour enfants....je me souviens de les avoir vus gamin sur la tele francaise....ils n'y sont pas reste longtemps, mais quel delir..je suis dingues des Banana Split !!!!!
A blue-screen type of Chroma Key was used in the 1960's and 1970's and was something of a norm in film and TV production(s) back then. This was before green screens and CGI effects came into being in later years. To me, this looks like Snorky's costume had some sort of red undertones (I'm not exactly a master of special visual effects, mind you) or the editor wasn't able to properly correct the parts where Snorky appeared during this segment
THE BANANA SPLITS was orignally an hour long show from when it aired on Saturday morning tv for two seasons 1968-70 and it was the BANANA SPLITS ADVENTURE HOUR. Why is it that when the SPLITS went into syndication it was reduced to a half an hour show?
It was also combined with 4 other short lived H-B series. The Atom Ant show,The Secret Squirrel show, The New Adventures of Gulliver,and the New Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.
You can get season 1 on DVD in R2 and R4 regions. But not R1. You need a multi-zone world wide player to play R2 and R4 DVD's in a R1 region. I live in Australia and we use R4.
The greatest rock band of all time.
THE ROLLING STONES
Are we a joke to you.
@@davidwesley2525 your a joke
Right up there with the Evolution Revolution.
@@davidwesley2525by the way this song is kinda rolling stones
Sesame Street on LSD!
Sesame Street was on plenty of lsd and other things back then to, when they took psychedelics out of children's television, stuff got mediocre and shallow fast
It’s better than Sesame Street sometimes tbh
@@tempolynnrealofficial to be honest, you won’t find Elmo threatening to roll a group of people into a basket ball. This show is superior
No, it's Hanna barbera on drugs
@@tempolynnrealofficial what's tbh?
Gen X from '72 here. I 1st watched the show syndicated on WDCA Ch 20 in DC, worth it.
To this day,
The Banana Splits are trying to find a cave.

I have 17 years and i have to be honest, I have envy of all those who were born at the time of the 1960's, this is just great

Henry Kujawa I would love to a cd saw the premier of this show back in 60s
It was intentional I was there
Ah the psychedelic TV wonderlands of my childhood!I miss the Splits!Who performed their songs?Damn I wish I still had the records!
I don't know but it was probable THE WRECKING CREW.
The singer is Ricky Lancelotti, he did some work with Frank Zappa.
Dude- so wanta go back to my Saturday morning cereal bowl.........
More Fuzz in the guitar, than a peach orchard! LOVE IT!!!!
Still a better band then One Direction.
That doesn't take much!
But they come in a close second place to Lance a lot link & the Evelution Revolution
One Direction: **exists**
Banana Splits: psh, we’re already four directions right here! See? One banana.. two banana.. three banana.. and there’s four! That makes a bunch, and so will many more!
hahaha
@@meyou-dv8ns who comes in a close second place?
Back in 69 I had this song in my head for weeks now its back ! Best of their songs
I wonder if I'm still a member of The Banana Splits fan club? 🤔
Artemisia Absinthium@ I am but I hate the movie
The Godzilla Fan 2020 oh I'm right there with ya
Definitely, my friend. Once a Banana Split, always a Banana Split. :D
My childhood........so innocent...
I am SO glad I grew up in the 60s! Groooooooovy!!!! :7)
NEZT
NEXT
TOTALLY AWESOME !!!
THIS OLD GAL STILL LOVE'S YOU !!!
Qué pedazo de rola :D Y pensar que veía ésto a los 5 años, cuándo la pasaban en la televisión :D
Trippy yeah, and we kids just ate it up !
This guys voice is phenomenal
Loved this when I was five years old back in sixties. The banana splits just freaked me out man.
I used love this show when i was litlle.
Man I love this TV show
Uh oh guys, here come the Sour Grapes Bunch!!
They sent their messenger girl, Charlie!
What’s the message, Charlie?
That fuzz tone is sick!
That was a badass old school song. I can dig it
Far out!!! Thank you for posting this - I always loved watching The Banana Splits when I was a kid.
this song is really good
Snorkys head became tranceparent
Brilliant pop song for a kids TV show 👍👍
That Vox teardrop guitar -- what Drooper is seen playing -- was famous as being Brian Jones's favorite guitar from 1965 until 1968.
The good stuff, my friend. The GOOD Stuff.
Love it. So funky.
Ten years - can’t believe I made this comment ten years ago
An actual pop/soul song that came out in early 66 by Charlie Starr written by Jimmy Radcliffe and sung by the AMAZING Ricky Lancelot! (Frank Zappa)
People like Barry White, Al Kooper, Gene Pitney & Jimmy Radcliffe wrote these songs! Pretty Rough Rock & Soul music...for a kids show!
Pitney and Kooper are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Hopefully one day Barry White also will be in.
This is pretty good
3 droopers, 3 fleegles and 3 bingos XD
This song was in the Turner print of the 1st 1968 episode of this show.
Great Garage song. Love the fuzz!
I love banana splits it makes me happy
me too.
Snorky: ok. 3 fleegles🐶🐶🐶, 3 droopers🐯🐯🐯, and now 3 bingos?🦍🦍🦍
I wish these songs were available on I Tunes. Such excellent tunes!
I had their lunchbox, I loved this show so much!😌
MAN! The Bass in this is FAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTT!!!!
Wait till tomorrow and this are by far the greatest find ever
Snorky dropped too much acid I think.
but ya know those folks were really there..they were really there and doing that! ... it was for real, yo.. it happens - real stuff happens
that was his way of getting even with Fleagle, Bingo and Drooper for being so mean to him.
We would happily open for the Banana Splits any day!

'68 Was the year The Banana Splits toured with the Grateful Dead. Also rumor has it that they played Woodstock in '69
What kind of drugs was snorky taking during this?
When that new movie comes out, I'm playing the heck out of this!
A mix of Animals and the Doors 😉 😎 🎸
Bingo is my biggest influence on drums !!!! Bloody brilliant !!!
Wow.. the splits are rockin! Bongos so good at drums
It's Bingo
@@Aubdian it was also a typo. too bad I didn't realize for like nine months lol
@@a_guy_who_exists nah, it doesn't matter, also, Bongo is the name of the Bingo cousin
this video saved my life
Excellent groupe !!!!! 💯🎶♥️💜❤️
Listen to this and "Wait Til Tomorrow" and THEN try telling me that the Banana Splits was just another '60s kids' show. I won't believe a word you say.
It's actually one of the better songs on the show.
Far out. Heavy and Groovy Babe. I Dig it!
circa 1968
I want to be in this band
Stoner rock for kids back in 69 and the early 70s. Sleep should cover this.
In “the cave” at six flags, there were these “spees”, these funny anteater-aliens that remind me of greedo. I just read about them online.
this year marked a very different new era for children's shows, and here is a prime example
I remember when I was a kid, I use to watch the Banana Splits and thought I was the hippest kid in the world.
The Banana Splits belong in the hall of fame.

1:45 his face lol
How did they make these colorfiul backgrounds
Cool
This is THE jam......
A great example of classic 60's Fuzzzz guitar tone, cool.
Pretty heavy psych for kids. The kids today don't know what they are missing.
And what is that black line on his four head is that his eyebrow or is that for the actor inside a costume to see out of?
Vocals by Ricky Lancelotti (RIP), who would later work with Frank Zappa(Overnite Sensation LP)
This Should Be The International "MAN CAVE" Anthem For Sure!
Sounds like Daltrey singing with the Who, just awesome.
Far out man, pass me some brownies...
Gonna find a cave were I can pull your hair. Wow genius.phsycodelic era.
I love that every time snorky looks away it's would be 3 times the splits 🤭
Ricky Lancelotti ruled, great vocals, RIP. Ricky Lancelotti passed away on April 7, 1980. from a traffic accident
That's exactly why I'm here! I've just read on Charles Ulrich Zappa book "The Big Note" that Ricky sung this one and "the banana split" too...
la canto sempre al mio cane,cuore banana..
Why was Snorky's face transparent at the end? Am-am I the only one confused about this? No? Okay...

The late Ricky Lancelot on vocals. He passed away so young!!!!
I hope we get a Banana Splits revival someday, one to restore their good names after being villains in that terrible movie and Jellystone

Marijuana Marijuana!

Scientists make it!
Teachers take it!
Why cant we?

I didn't know the Max Rebo Band was operating in the '60s.
Great music, but what was Snorky tripping on?
Check out THE SORROWS VERSION.
