John Fogerty's lead guitar, Tom Fogerty's rhythm guitar, Stu Cook's bass guitar, and Doug Clifford's drums took CCR to the mountain top. Along with John's singing and writing of course.
I drove my poor mum and dad mad with this song on my record player when it first came out im now 74 still love it but ive calmed down lol happy memories x 😂
Absolutely. Along with "You really got me" (ruclips.net/video/csSpAyRNYeA/видео.html&pp=sAQA) and "Till the end of the day" (ruclips.net/video/yDMIT4KN-AA/видео.html). My band (1968-1970) turned those three numbers -- plus Manfred Mann's fabulous "Do Wah Diddy Diddy" (ruclips.net/video/adYpzv_q_u4/видео.html) -- into a full 45 minute set. The hardest part of covering those numbers was to find a bass and drums capable of driving them with requisite authority. By the way -- I really enjoy this remix of "All day and all of the night" (ruclips.net/video/aFzRbQZ0BnI/видео.html).
The Birth of Hard Rock with those power chords. I love the lead vocal & the background vocals with that edgy tone & attitude. Kinks were ahead of their time & a truly great band.
Yes. Even their early song like this one, Not copyin rnb like the Stones or even Them/Animals/etc, Not glorifyn happiness through sillyness like Beatles. True. Not really one of the greatest but the greatest. Except if you are idiot enough to pay atention to the masses and a bunch of pathetic djs.
Three of the greatest guitarists, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, and Jeff Beck all played in the same band-The Yardbirds. Page and Beck played together in the band for a short time. Imagine that shit.
I was 15 when we were invaded and the Kinks were my favorite invaders. Dave Davies is one of the best lead guitarists in rock 'n' roll history, and quite the showman!
the kinks were definitely something different from the other british invasion bands that popped up like crazy in the 60s. ray was a musical genius, and each member had their own unique talent. they're so underrated!!! they never bothered to compete with the other top guys, like the beatles or the rolling stones, and i find that so admirable. ive been a beatlemaniac for a while now, but there's something different about the kinks that i adore :-)
@Ian Lloyd Say what? 8 Top 40 hits in less than 2 years before being 'banned from America'; first 3 singles Top 10. The Who had no hits by the time the Kinks were banned and would have flopped here if they'd been banned. The Who only had 1 Top 10 hit in the US in their whole career!
@Ruby Williams The Who only had 1 Top 10 hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 in their whole career. The Who did not even crack the Top 40 in the US until after the Kinks had been 'banned from America'. Goodbye!
When I was young we moved from the UK to America my dad had moved from Vauxhall cars to General Motors. My first day at an American school the American kids wanted me to join a rock band with them. I said I can’t sing. They just said dude your British you can sing lol.
Sonics were a great band.Never came near the success of the Kinks.But oddly enough the Sonics are still touring. Some Sonics stuff is punk but they also did ALOT of covers.Saxophones are'nt very punk. Dave Davis opening riffs (You really got me) (All day and all of the night) are the kind of stuff that in my mind cant be matched.
@@tek6423what an ignorant comment. The fact that you believe this shows you don’t actually know the Beatles Discography. If anything Rubber Soul onwards is “top 40 pablum” to you then perhaps music just isn’t your thing.
Agree, the Kinks were the real thing, as were the Stones and the Who. The Beatles were a boy band writing nursery rhymes (quite good ones) in comparison.
Finally! An actual live 60s song without bad lip-syncing and pseudo-playing...thanks Shindig! I like how Dave makes a mistake at 1:06 and you see him sheepishly laughing about it later. Great energy, too!
And then he aced that solo.... and even a dimed Vox only had so much distortion, when the solo hits it's cleaner sounding, leaving less room for errors. Yeah, he was good.
I think the thing that really makes me love music of this time is 90% of it is genuine. Brand new innovative music styles that have never been heard before in history
It didn't take the invasion greats like the Kinks long to ditch their blues roots and start creating their own sound and style. I'd put Dave's smoking lick on this tune against any by the big three at the time, Clapton, Page and Beck.
For guitar riffs? The kinks were way ahead of their time. Even ahead of the Beatles at just the riffs. They really laid a lot of groundwork down the 70's and possibly 80's!
Not possibly the 80s. Listen to The Eurythmics “Would I Lie to You”, then The Kinks “ I Need You” or 70s Deep Purple’s My Girl From Tokyo “ and then The Kinks “She’s Got Everything.” You will further hear their influence plus some great songs!
@@troyleeimell Among musicians, yes. Among the general population not at all. The Beatles stole the Kinks thunder IMO; also the Kinks were banned from touring in the US which really hurt their notoriety, but among musicians (especially in the UK) the Kinks were arguably more influential.
Hilarious moment, but I would add that his guitar was a bit off tune in general. Of course that was fairly common then, they didn't have auto-tuners and often winged it, or tuned it to a piano if there was one nearby. It certainly adds to the raw feel.
The word "underrated" was invented for the Kinks. Everyone who grew up with their music knew how good it was and anyone who didn't, but hears their music says they were brilliant. They made so many good songs that it's incredible the didn't end up being as famous as the Beatles or the Stones. Only in the past few years have I begun to appreciate that they had some great lyrics too.
@@Asaman854 - true, but Ray Davies didn't have either a particularly happy private life while never having the fame or the millions and millions the Beatles made. At least no nutter shot or stabbed any of the Kinks members though.
THE KINKS FOREVER!!!!! Man, am I glad I was a teenager during the 'British Invasion'!!! The Kinks blew every other band out of the water! I was also a fan of the Yardbirds. 'For Your Love' was one of the best songs to come across the pond at that time and of course the GREAT 'Heart Full of Soul'.
@@brendadrumm9451 You gotta love the lead guitar in those two bands. They had lots more going for them, but the guitar riffs got you up off your chair and onto the dance floor.
@arturbello4213 omg 🙄 stop it please. Rolling Stones had already made 3 studio albums before 1965 which includes songs like. Tell me you're coming back, Time is on my side, It's all over now. Are you saying to me with a straight face that those songs aren't hits or famous 🤔🤔🤔
This was a frontier breaking song in the whole of rock music history -the power of guitar nobody had ever heard before -lyrics blunt, brilliant and hard hitting -total GENIUS
Love, love, love this song. The 60's were so great musically - loved the English bands of this period, the Mersey sound. What a magical time that was! I still remember the day I came home with a Beatle haircut - having it cut from waist-length! Boy, was my mom mad!
Jude Anne Gossin Hi Jude, I had a lot of fun with the 60s bands - very nostalgic. Hope you are feeling ok and that your puppy is improving. Kind regards Lorraie
how is it that the 60` s was when music really grew up, and came of age but these days the music really isn`t worth listening to or playing in comparision, although i grew up in the 80s and wasn`t around in the 60s, i do think that really great music started in this era, and continued into the 70`s and 80s, and when during the 80s you turned on the radio, especially on long car journeys and me probably going to wales on holiday, apart from being stuck in the car for hours on end, all you could do was to listen to the radio, and even then in my naive youth i realised i was listening to some of the greatest music of all time and possibly have returned to this great music again and again now and then, especially with the likes of youtube these days and these are the sort of music that i was listening to, let alone at college, : the beatles, the rolling stones, the who, the supremes, marvin gaye, the kinks, the monkees, the doors, sonny and cher, the mamas and the papas, the beach boys, and theres loads more i can`t think of right now, and then in the 70`s there was the sex pistols, the police, the jam, pink floyd , abba, the jacksons, queen, the eagles, madness, the clash, the boomtown rats, blondie, gary numan, kate bush, boney m, t rex, and in the 80s, michael jackson, bruce springsteen, madonna, europe, berlin, aerosmith, duran duran, tears for fears, phil collins, a ha, bon jovi, ub40, culture club, the human league, what happened to great music, i can only imagine someone quite a bit older than me who is really into there music, and was lucky enough to have lived through those times, and listened to this great music, and possibly saw these bands live, and maybe even now has still great a great record collection, is truly one blessed person.
Most underrated band ever and so proud of them from the UK., great music i can play all day and all night, music i would play any day compered to today`s music.
I LOVE this. Ray Davies is almost cocky in his confidence here. They make the big sound live with no overdubs, and that chicken-scratch-on-speed solo is wonderful!
One of the few times they allowed (and set up) a live gig on Shindig. (No backing tape, 'we're going live guys, plug in your amps') Even with the occasional mistake by the band, it is a way-cool performance for TV in the 60's.
I'm no guitar player just a rock n roller, but the guitar solo in the studio version of this song is my favorite studio guitar solo of all time. Sounds like he's breaking strings. I first heard this when I was 6 years old, I'm 61 now...
I was 14 or 15. We kids used to stay up late listening to music through a little microphone disc that you put under your pillow. Our parents did not approve of any popular music.
Always loved the sixties, eventhough I'm pretty glad I was born in today's generation. But that will never stop me from loving music like this. Plus I always have to think of my crush when I listen to it. I mean... he's not even into that kind of stuff and listens to metal, but he looks like he straight up came from Woodstock. Haha, sending my love to all my fellow Punks and Hippies enjoying their life.
The early version of 'My Eyes Have Seen You' is also a pretty straight lift of You Really Got Me, but they changed that enough for the album version that they seem to have gotten away with it - never seen it mentioned.
@@tomchristie3199 Some claim they were the founders of Punk some say heavy metal, but l think them being the pioneers of Flower music or psychedelic music with All Day & All of the Night and You Really Got Me sounds to me to be much more reasonable .
... and Paul McCartney, who still plays. In fact, was the first Beatle to acquire this hollow body guitar for studio work (in late 1964). John Lennon and George Harrison get their matching Epiphones in 1966.
This was just before Dave began playing his '58 Gibson Korina Flying V...he went to a music shop and spotted the odd shaped guitar case with an inch of dust on it and insisted on buying it, even though the owner tried to talk him out of it. Dave would not be deterred, and fell in love with the V! 🎸🎸🎸
This demonstrates that there was a time when rock and roll bands made their own music and could play their own instruments. The Kinks were one of a great many great bands of the 60's, the golden age of rock and roll.
I look at this and think: 4 smartly dressed accountants. Then they start the song and I think: Hey, they're not accountants, they're dangerous assassins, and they mean to kill!
I Bought this on a 45 rpm single in 1964. I was in a band and had my guitar amplifier in my room at a boarding house and played the record on my record payer jacked into my 15" speaker Ampeg tube unit and put the dial on #10. After the record played, the landlady came upstairs and said don't ever do that again or you are out of here.
That little grin when he botches the chord was perfection. That’s EXACTLY how you do it. If people aren’t gonna notice, don’t acknowledge it. If they’re gonna notice, make it fun. The joke’s only on you if you aren’t in on it.
I'm not content to be with you in the daytime Girl, I want to be with you all of the time The only time I feel alright is by your side Girl, I want to be with you all of the time All day and all of the night All day and all of the night All day and all of the night I believe that you and me last forever Oh yeah, all day and nighttime yours, leave me never The only time I feel alright is by your side Girl, I want to be with you all of the time All day and all of the night All day and all of the night Oh, come on I believe that you and me last forever Oh yeah, all day and nighttime yours, leave me never The only time I feel alright is by your side Girl, I want to be with you all of the time All day and all of the night All day and all of the night-time All day and all of the night
G r e a t song! To me, it was ahead of its time, especially Dave Davies' guitar playing. I have this VHS tape and just watched it yesterday on my used S-VHS player. Thanks for uploading.
This is so brilliant, what else can I say. It has been said already by all of you. I loved the Kinks when i was younger and I think this is an amazing life performance, thanks so much for the posting!!!!
rbraxley Agree, Kinks were rocking with the very best, but you cannot say one is better than the other. Beatles had the most impressive catalog, while Kinks may sound cooler these days..
Kinks, Yardbirds, Animals, all were the leading edge of the British Invasion, all a bit of a harder edge than the Beatles and sometimes even the Stones. Classics from my misspent youth! Lennon and McCarthy helped mature Rock. I don't think they had a bad song, especially in their early catalog. All those early songs just seem to resonate within me.
haha. Nonde of these reinvented themselves over and over again like the beatles. Great bands all of them, but thats where the beatles leave them standing

I'm no guitar player just a rock n roller, but the guitar solo in the studio version of this song is my favorite studio guitar solo of all time. Sounds like he's breaking strings. I first heard this when I was 6 years old, I'm 61 now...
Pure RnR for the ages. Heart. Fire & Soul. Thanks Guys-
One of the greatest rock bands ever. Period.
Love this song! I was 11 years old in 1965 but I remember it well!
I still say......One of the greatest bands of all time!!
One of the best live rock bands ever
Not really, lol.
I love the Kinks! All Day And Night 🌙
I was 14 or 15. We kids used to stay up late listening to music through a little microphone disc that you put under your pillow. Our parents did not approve of any popular music.
I still love it. Nothing has ever changed.
"Эта песня , спустя десятки лет , может расшевелить танцующих разного возраста...
This was the music of my youth, the 1960's really rocked
One of the GREATEST Rock songs ever, by one of the GREATEST Bands ever.
Dave smiles when he messes up the chord--more interested in making his hollow-body sound bad-ass. Pure
attitude.
Dave slamming that rhythm guitar power chords, jumping into that lead and back...awesome.

Always loved the sixties, eventhough I'm pretty glad I was born in today's generation. But that will never stop me from loving music like this. Plus I always have to think of my crush when I listen to it. I mean... he's not even into that kind of stuff and listens to metal, but he looks like he straight up came from Woodstock. Haha, sending my love to all my fellow Punks and Hippies enjoying their life.
The beggining sounds like the bridge of Hello, I Love You, of The Doors. These guys influenced Jim Morrison
eliza consuegra The Doors had to admit in court that they nicked the riff for Hello I Love You from this song and paid The Kinks money for it.

I'll be darned. Did not know that. Thanks.
@@ranica47Sir Ray laughed all the way to the bank.
The early version of 'My Eyes Have Seen You' is also a pretty straight lift of You Really Got Me, but they changed that enough for the album version that they seem to have gotten away with it - never seen it mentioned.
@@tomchristie3199 Some claim they were the founders of Punk some say heavy metal, but l think them being the pioneers of Flower music or psychedelic music with All Day & All of the Night and You Really Got Me sounds to me to be much more reasonable .
Dave's guitar is an Epiphone Casino. John Lennon, George Harrison, Keith Richards among others played Casino too
... and Paul McCartney, who still plays. In fact, was the first Beatle to acquire this hollow body guitar for studio work (in late 1964). John Lennon and George Harrison get their matching Epiphones in 1966.
This was just before Dave began playing his '58 Gibson Korina Flying V...he went to a music shop and spotted the odd shaped guitar case with an inch of dust on it and insisted on buying it, even though the owner tried to talk him out of it. Dave would not be deterred, and fell in love with the V! 🎸🎸🎸
Awesome song, a favorite band, ahead of their time.....
Go Hawks!! :O)
This demonstrates that there was a time when rock and roll bands made their own music and could play their own instruments. The Kinks were one of a great many great bands of the 60's, the golden age of rock and roll.
Literally 0 bands whatsoever do this today. Music is completely fucked. You can't spell crap without rap.
This songs Rocks my world even though I wasn't born when it was released. 2019 July anyone?
One of the greatest bands. Love these old videos. So happy to watch on Utube.
this is just so unbelievably powerful
-raw, hard hitting, HONEST, classic, rock and roll
Love this!!! So Inspiring--Thank You!!!
One of the first riffs I ever heard that changed me forever
They was the first punkrock band :-)
THANKS!!!
At a recent family wedding bride and groom left the service to this...priceless!
Love Daves' face when he fucks up!
Raw and rough sound... just as I like !!!!
I love the solo on this song. God, every CD in the late 60s and the first few from the 70s are some of the best song for song albums in rock history
Inspired punk rock and heavy metal rock. Lennon and McCartney must have said WTF when the heard this and You Really Got Me.
I love everything about this performance.... The grit & the soul .
I look at this and think: 4 smartly dressed accountants.
Then they start the song and I think: Hey, they're not accountants, they're dangerous assassins, and they mean to kill!
That's a pretty good assessment.
wtf, that was very interesting xD lol, gr8 way to put it though!
They're well respected men about town .
Nah - they were sexy talented mods
Yeah, cos accountants wear those sort of collars on a day to day basis!
Una de las tres grandes bandas de la primera mitad de los 1960. The Beatles, The Who y The Kinks sólo ellos
Fuck yeah Dave Davies! The Rosetta Stone of rock riffs. I'm just now learning the genius and glory of two string power chords!
Gotta LOVE at 1:06 in when Dave flubs a chord and makes the funny face...then keeps on plowing through the song!! Professional at a very young age !!!

Love Dave's enthusiasm. One of the great 60's bands. Brilliant song.
Greatest rock n roll song of all time!
I love this song along with ‘You Really Got Me.’
I Bought this on a 45 rpm single in 1964. I was in a band and had my guitar amplifier in my room at a boarding house and played the record on my record payer jacked into my 15" speaker Ampeg tube unit and put the dial on #10. After the record played, the landlady came upstairs and said don't ever do that again or you are out of here.
It’s a good thing you hadn’t turned it up to 11.
so punk ! i love Ray and Dave ! ❤ and the way Ray delivers ruefully his lines and Dave's crazy dancing , whats not to love

Check out Dave Davies on lead. Clapton called him the influential guitarist of the 1960's. He rocked
First concert of my life - The Kinks, Tampa, Florida, Ft. Homer Hesterly Armory, 1972. Love that band!
These guys were the hardest rockers of the ere, the first album is still a classic of good hard rock
Man, the way they made their sound turn huge with the back up vocals. Awesome
That little grin when he botches the chord was perfection. That’s EXACTLY how you do it. If people aren’t gonna notice, don’t acknowledge it. If they’re gonna notice, make it fun. The joke’s only on you if you aren’t in on it.
I'm not content to be with you in the daytime
Girl, I want to be with you all of the time
The only time I feel alright is by your side
Girl, I want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night
I believe that you and me last forever
Oh yeah, all day and nighttime yours, leave me never
The only time I feel alright is by your side
Girl, I want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night
Oh, come on
I believe that you and me last forever
Oh yeah, all day and nighttime yours, leave me never
The only time I feel alright is by your side
Girl, I want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night-time
All day and all of the night
G r e a t song! To me, it was ahead of its time, especially Dave Davies' guitar playing. I have this VHS tape and just watched it yesterday on my used S-VHS player. Thanks for uploading.
Saw them in 64 at the midsouth coliseum in Memphis. Almost fell out of my seat !!!

This is so brilliant, what else can I say. It has been said already by all of you. I loved the Kinks when i was younger and I think this is an amazing life performance, thanks so much for the posting!!!!
The video is nearly 60 years old The kinks pretty good for the classic black and white❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😢
wow this is brilliant, such an influential band
The Kinks own The Beatles all day and all night.
Well, no, but they're one of the very few bands who are on the same page. Absolutely fantastic.
rbraxley Agree, Kinks were rocking with the very best, but you cannot say one is better than the other. Beatles had the most impressive catalog, while Kinks may sound cooler these days..
Kinks, Yardbirds, Animals, all were the leading edge of the British Invasion, all a bit of a harder edge than the Beatles and sometimes even the Stones. Classics from my misspent youth! Lennon and McCarthy helped mature Rock. I don't think they had a bad song, especially in their early catalog. All those early songs just seem to resonate within me.
haha. Nonde of these reinvented themselves over and over again like the beatles. Great bands all of them, but thats where the beatles leave them standing
In '65, perhaps. Later, it not easy to compare and there's no need to. They were both great.
This song is easily a decade before it's time. Pure genius behind that guitar.
You can't beat the music of the 60's and this is a good example of that.
The rarest guitar sound of all time!!!!!
First hard rock band?
Dave influenced all rock guitarists including Townshend who admitted to "nicking" chord changes and modulations (key changes) from the Kinks.
no shit
Is Punk And Hard Rock
Bo Diddley was the first hard rocker.
Yes Hard Rock And Punk Rock
Un étonnant mélange de décontraction et de rage,le swing de Sunny afternoon et la dynamite du hard avant l'heure de you really got me.des l'âge de 13 ans j'étais fasciné par les Kinks
