Deep inside of me there's still a teenager even though I'm 71years old and nobody can take that away from me, we had great music, great girls, so beautiful that I even married one, and still married to my highschool sweetheart and she's still beautiful in and out. Thank you Lord !♡
I'm a bit younger 10 years but I remember my older sister and brothers dancing, singing!! I sooooo agree!! Those were American carefree music days. We didn't have much but love for our nation, neighbors and music!! 💞
I still feel like ac teenager too I’m 69 but my mind is stuck at 16.I love the era I grew up in.These songs when I hear them I still want to dance,can’t do much got a bad knee but boy I can I can move good just standing stillGod bless
No doubt- kids drop in a music groove here like it is totally casual. And everything was so bomb then- the styles, the smiles. What a time to be young...
We've injected every child with mercury and aluminum the last 50 years chief. Then we dump millions of tons of pesticides into the food. All highly toxic. You're living in a fake world run by Pharma and Big Ag right now.
People did not live on welfare like they do now. They “buy” whatever they want-sodas, chips, etc. and barter/sell off what they choose. It’s a sad world.
The greatest... unless you were Black (who did not know your place), Latino/Hispanic, gay, a woman with an unwanted pregnancy, mentally ill, a drug addiction (no one chooses addiction), a war protestor... anyone really, who did not fit the image of "Good American." I lived those years. Great music, great cars, great fashion (unless you were fat, of course), but a great world? No. It's better now, but we still have a lot to achieve to make us a great nation. I can still love the music of the 60s, though...
@@ElizabethBrewster-cw4mx When people reflect back on their younger years, they usually get nostaligic that's why they think about the good times and not necessarily the unpleasantness Liz. What exactly more can we do become a great nation?
@@violetbennett2407 true. I was in high school in the late 70s. School dances were usually held after school so we were still in the clothes we wore that day. No night dances, and school dances didn't occur until high school. PS I'm in Canada.
I used to blast this song from our "record player" back in 1967 and my mom would eventually come in and say "would you PLEASE turn that down"??? I would turn it down for a few seconds and turn it right back up again. Now I've got hearing problems but who cares!!!!!
@community1949...Amen. I got hooked on Dynaco stereo kits, etc. Build them, buy the speakers you can afford, a Gerard 40 mark 2 with manual arm, NOT the automatic one LOL. and a decent cartridge. And, had to go to Philmore West to see those great acts...HUH? What did you say? Thanks for those memories, from Darrell. 😆😇
My granny is at 1:54 with short blonde hair she said when this air she was super excited 🥹🥹and during the dance was the time of her life 🙌🏻🙌🏻 she didn’t know who to dance with until that handsome man took her by the hand and dance ❤❤❤
I was born in 1972, so my peak.music time was 1988-1995.ish. But the years 1965-1970 wa the peak of pop music and youth culture. RUclips is proving this now. Awesome
"Dig It"! Our Generation...the best yrs of our lives!! just broke 70 last month..but feel 70.. been a long "strange trip..Man❗️🆒🆒🆒🆒🆒🆒🆒🆒🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙😎😎😎😎😎✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️❗️
I love how the kids get up from the bleachers when the intro bass line starts up, then when the organs pipes in they're dancing. These kids were into it. And why not? Stevie Winwood was a kid himself when this song was released, just 18 years old then.
I also grew up in the 80's and we rocked in the 80's which now define one of the greatest decade. I listen to this music from this era. Another good era of music. Too bad we had the Johnson war (Vietnam War)
So many folks covered this Song. Olivia Newton-John on her Totally Hot Album 1979, then The Blues Brothers, and it was featured in The Big Chill. Steve Winwood was in his own way the first Blue Eyed Soul Singer in England before George Michael, Ed Sheeran and even Sam Smith. Also "I'm A Man" was featured on Mad Men when Don went to LA To see Megan.
And singing! A great voice and he was 15 when he joined the group.of course he plays guitar as well! He then headed up Traffic and the next Supergroup of the sixties - Blind Faith wit Clapton, Gretch and of course on drums Ginger Baker.
One of the most distinctive intro's ever, and when that organ kicks in you know it's gonna be good. I liked it then but didn't realise how much I would still like it 55 years later. "...conceived, arranged, and rehearsed in just half an hour". - Wikipedia. WOW!
What's so great about this is that this is a self-selected audience. The studio may have been able to "pick and choose" who could be there, but it was from a pool of people who already wanted to be there. They are already motivated to show off their dance moves and glad to hear the music presented over a good sound system. I bet, for some, it would be a story they still tell today.
If it helps. You can take your clock and move time backward. I was not born, and I love it. My era also had great music.. There is so much positive energy on the dance floor. I take a cruise with my car at Big Sur with this music, and I wish it was the 60s and 80s music. Peace to all. Anyone out there from the 60s. Please let me hear you out there.
another fantastic dance song with a driving beat in this era was Mony Mony by Tommy James & Shondells released the next year. Also Devil With a Blue Dress by Mitch Ryder was great for dancing
Yes that’s for sure that there’s nothing compared to the classics the old is that they are nothing compared to them they are so great I can listen to them forever and ever they make my heart sing I I can’t get enough of them makes me feel young all over just keep playing them forever and ever
Hard to believe that Steve Winwood was only 16 when this Song came out. He was next to Joe Cocker one of the First Blue Eyed Soul Singers along with Tom Jones to come out of The UK.
@@66impala71 Can you imagine how much "Bank" he made off of The Big Chill & The Blues Brothers and Chicago did I'm A Man on The UK Music Show The Beat Club. Also he made "Bank" off of Mad Men when Don Draper went to Los Angeles to visit Megan. Also Olivia Newton-John did "her" version on The Totally Hot Album after Grease was released.
When I watch these clips, I am transported back to those Saturday mornings - I get the same anticipation and excitement. The styles come back to me, and in my mind's eye, I can see my older brother and sister getting ready for school.
I bet who ever was watching A.B that Saturday afternoon had the TV blasting to this song. I would probably dancing in front of the TV if I was a teenager in 1967.
hey! Hey! Hey!... anybody gots a Time Machine in their back pocket here love to "go back & relive" but then again wouldn't have my loving family today. "Bummer"...Bummer..!💪💪💪💪💪🇺🇸🦅✌️🇺🇸😎😎❗️❗️
Awe the 60s great music great time to grow up great & terrible times ( military draft) civil rights movement people were more down to earth then , yes America had its problems but nothing like today what was right then is wrong today & these young kids today ? Thank God I'm 72 now I'm on the down slide of life & enjoying myself & loving life
As a Brit living in Ireland for decades I just marvel at the way the little Island stuck somewhere in the Atlantic owned the American charts in the late Sixties led by the Beatles of course! Even the most American of bands Sir Douglas Quintet thought to get a hit they had to make out they were an English band and what’s more: it worked!
America sure could use a good dose of Rock-'n'-Roll right about now. it is screaming for it . The band that can deliver it will go down in history as one of the greats - just like this one.
I was 4💕 watching American bandstand with my big brother and sisters, my mom. Didn't have to worry about songs with swearing ect used to dance with my big brother ,told him I was going to be on American bandstand and then he would see me on tv 😊

Right there with you.
We had the best generation of music and dancing ever. Life was so exciting and promising for us teens. Wish I could relive it.
Me too
Me too!
I saw them in person profrom while I was station in Germany back in 1967
You just did relive it while you watched this! (me too)
No doubt- kids drop in a music groove here like it is totally casual. And everything
was so bomb then- the styles, the smiles. What a time to be young...
Have you notice how slim everyone was back than???? No video games and no couch potatoes, no cell phone! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
No high fructose corn syrup, chemicals, plastics in food then
We've injected every child with mercury and aluminum the last 50 years chief. Then we dump millions of tons of pesticides into the food. All highly toxic. You're living in a fake world run by Pharma and Big Ag right now.
No junk food
@@alexholland1318 did not eat fast food until I left home at 19. Mom cooked our meals in our home. Never once did Mom say, "Let's go to McDonalds"
People did not live on welfare like they do now. They “buy” whatever they want-sodas, chips, etc. and barter/sell off what they choose. It’s a sad world.
Oh how I wish I could travel back to the 60s and just stay there. The very best of times. I really miss those days.
I have said they were the best of times both in music and being young Oh My Those were the days

Poor kids today have so many hang ups. I was 15 years old in 67. A very good time for the most part and we could just enjoy the best music.
Born in '59
Witnessed the 60s
Lived the 70s
Married with children in the 80s thru the 2000s. Now enjoying being a grandfather.
My LIFE story, born in 60
This stuff beats the poop out of anything new today!!!!!!!!!
Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end....
We used to dance like that. Good dancing and clean fun. But, the boys didn’t wear suits. That’s just for tv.
@@violetbennett2407 true. I was in high school in the late 70s. School dances were usually held after school so we were still in the clothes we wore that day. No night dances, and school dances didn't occur until high school.

Look at all of the kids dancing maturely and in structured dance patterns! Wow!
They knew that if they danced well, they'd get on camera.
stuck between the "traditional" dancing and the new more "free form" style
This music will never die.
lol… Nope it sure won’t, this song still makes people get up and move…..timeless
This is still one of the greatest songs to get on that floor and cut it up man outstanding music Spencer Davis that was the great-great tunes
It's 1967 all over again I'm looking for my dance partner
These folks were dancing to the greatest songs in pop/ rock/soul history
I wish it could be like this again. Noting dirty , just clean
fun dancing and having fun.
Those were the good old days. So much fun watching
them.
I'm with you!

No tattoos or yoga pants!! Refreshing
I was born in 1972, so my peak.music time was 1988-1995.ish.
But the years 1965-1970 wa the peak of pop music and youth culture. RUclips is proving this now.
Awesome
72 baby here as well
GO!!! 60's WOW !!! what a dance record !!!. The beat is phenomenal and was back then as well. Still a fantastic record !!!
My high school band covered this in 1967. When we played it we were wild with excitement.
From the first beat the song moves your body & soul!! In my top ten for certain!! I’m so glad this song “made it!!”
WE WERE YOUNG AND ALIVE AND KNEW IT!⚘

So cute then.
Like little dolls.
Best time ever

My time our music 14 in 67 now 66 this month.the best music ever.
Loved and still love this. I am 65 and we were lucky to have been in this generation.
If this song doesn't make you want to get up and dance, have yourself declared legally dead!
Me too Sam. Wouldn't be one day younger!
Sam Decaro yeahh give some lovin
I was 8 back then but remember so many of these songs. loved abs
Love the fashions and all the different hairdos
These guys were the very best i adored this band ,what pure utter talent lol Jane x
I miss those days. Especially having fun and no health worries
Me too
This looks like so much fun.
Got to see Spencer live twice. This is one of the all time best dance songs.. It kicks butt
One good reason to dance : Spencer Davis Group's "Gimme some loving". Steve Winwood at 17 playing organ.
So many folks covered this Song. Olivia Newton-John on her Totally Hot Album 1979, then The Blues Brothers, and it was featured in The Big Chill. Steve Winwood was in his own way the first Blue Eyed Soul Singer in England before George Michael, Ed Sheeran and even Sam Smith.

GET DOWN !!!!!!!!!!!. Some of those dancers were pretty darn good 😊😉🙃
Yep - This song did not allow poor dancing!
When Stevie came in with that big bad B-3 Hammond, you knew the place was going to be hopping. Loved this tune since 67.
A banging sound for sure Steve winwood has a whole lot of soul in his unique voice thanks for the top upload ✊✊
when people danced! Loved that show!
Jeff K Harpo Harpo absolutely!!!
It's got a good beat and I can dance to it!
WISH WE HAD IN 2023 A TV DANCE PROGRAM LIKE AMERICAN BANDSTAND…………
Great song.....it never really gets old.
Kicking song still today..Mr. Steve Winwood

Loved the Sir Douglas Quintet! Saw them in person at 17 in Hollywood, California 😅
Irish folks are also amazing blue eyed soul singers
One of my favorite songs to dance to.
21 when this was popular...danced my ass off !..All bar bands covered this song...good times! RIP Spencer...much love ..💋
My 13 and 14 year old granddaughters love it . So I think we’r solid
I love watching these
Steve Winwood was only 17 when they recorded this.
misterjag absolutely amazing
I wish so bad it was still like this.
Brings back so many great memories of my senior year in high school! I am still a teenager when I hear this music !
It’s 9/7/24 in Austin, Tx! Great dance song! Seniors were great in ‘68! I’m 75 now and still rockin to the 60’s….🥳🎶
High school graduation year. The best times ever!
Lead singer Steve Winwood had some hits in the 80s. Serious talent.
Steve Winwood was pushing out hits up into the 90’s. The King of Blue Eyed Soul.
He was only 17 yrs. old when he sang this!
R.I.P. Spencer 10.20.20
America sure could use a good dose of Rock-'n'-Roll right about now. it is screaming for it . The band that can deliver it will go down in history as one of the greats - just like this one.
That was a good song to dance to
Thanks to Steve and his brother uff Winwood!!!
RIP Spencer
I was 4💕 watching American bandstand with my big brother and sisters, my mom. Didn't have to worry about songs with swearing ect used to dance with my big brother ,told him I was going to be on American bandstand and then he would see me on tv 😊
Love this song.
I am so glad I grew up in the 60s and learned what good music is....
These videos make me want to learn how to swing dance. I’m 56 and want to feel young again!
Priceless.
