Hi Chloe , I can't believe that John missed the Curtis Mayfield question . The Who used to cover that song ! I have the video to prove it . Stay safe , cheers .
I thought 2 things.. Firstly, so there are 3 famous singers called Davy/David Jones i.e. The Monkee, David Bowie, who was forced to change his name and this Guy. Second;y,I thought "Daby Jones has let himself go..."
Didnt we have Our MTV?😃 I mean you had to pay for cable which was kind of new back then..but if your parents would cough up for cable, you could watch MTV all day and night!
A quick scan of the comments reveals more Entwhistle fanes than Jones fans. The one and only Ox. Best bass player in the world playing for the best live band in the world.
Just more Entwhistle fans commenting. Let The Monkees fans find it. As an advantage, John IS the photo shown to draw you in. Clicked on that and then discovered that Davy Jones was also on the show. Bonus!
I grew up during the 1960's and I don't recall seeing this thoroughly entertaining Pop Quiz TV show until now. These great music video clips alone with this great guest panel who've all come and gone through time. Davy Jones stand up, I am standing - LOL ! And closing out the program featuring a video of a very young Robert Palmer was the icing on the cake ! Priceless, Cheers ! 💞
I'm a little surprised no Who fan picked up or commented on the fact panelist Tony Butler, at the time this took place, was Pete Townshend's bass player. He'd been playing with Pete for about five years at this point. I wonder if there was awkward tension between him and John Entwistle.
My goodness! I can understand everything Entwistle is saying. He's usually too soft spoken and mumbling for Americans like me. This is a great show. I never heard of it before, Looks like I'll be spending time watching these episodes.
Poor Dave Dee suffered horribly through medical negligence later in his life. Loving the nostalgia trip - watched these on TV as a teenager, I can answer the questions now lol
Wow, that was one of my favourite shows growing up. I loved that they showed old clips I had missed the first time around but knew from the radio. I live in NY and so enjoyed watching this, thank you!
John Entwistle looks like he could be a bank manager or accountant rather than a rock music man. On the other hand he died the most rock 'n roll death in a hotel room bed near Las Vegas with a local stripper and groupie after a cocaine session.
When I was a child my mother was very strict about what I could watch on TV and what music I could listen to. Classical music only! My friend's parents however had no such rules so she loved her pop and had a crush on Mike Read (this is true). Anyway I went to visit her at her house and she said "we're going to play Mike Read's Pop Quiz" which was a trivia card game thing. I said "oh no, I'll be rubbish, I won't get any of the answers" but she insisted so we did play it and I was rubbish. She got most of the answers right, I got one only, I think it was Boy George. I felt humiliated but at least I can enjoy these videos in retrospect! And I do so thanks for uploading it. I'm now quite good at 60s/70s/80s pop trivia because I love the music from those eras.
So many greats in this episode - Davy Jones is an incredibly fun personality, Feargal Sharkey perhaps trying that little bit too hard to be quirky but it doesn't come off, and the Ox showing that the hardest rockers in the world are often the softest spoken people ever. On the other side, Cheryl Baker is just gorgeous so it doesn't really matter what she does or says, while Tony Butler and Dave Dee just look so happy to be on the show at long last! Two of these guests returned for the Spot the Star segment in the first 1984 Christmas Special.
The Monkees became what they pretended to be on TV...a band struggling to make it...with all the ups and downs most every garage band had, while living and loving life to the fullest. The Don Kirshner songs were great...I think we all love them...but the music they made on their own is real. That WAS The Monkees. That IS The Monkees. They worked hard at it, together, and it worked. It was their music, their sound. Original and distinct. When a ZZ Top song comes on the radio, everyone immediately knows it's ZZ Top. Even if it's a brand new release, a few seconds into it, you know without a doubt it's ZZ Top. Their sound is unique, distinct. There's not a whole lot of bands that can pull that off. A lot of times, even with great songs, you wait anxiously for the DJ to tell you who it was playing it. But not with bands that created their own unique sound. The Allman Brothers were another. Even if it's a song you never heard before, you automatically know who's playing as soon as it starts. That applies to bands like Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. It also applies to The Monkees. They got out from under the manufactured, made for tv sound that was their beginning and created a sound that was beyond doubt, their own. They pulled it off. When a Monkee's song is played, no matter which song it is or which Monkee is singing, everyone knows immediately, that's The Monkees. They went through a lot through the years, disagreements, band members leaving and returning, different combinations keeping the music alive, but through it all, they never hired a replacement and called them "a Monkee". I forget which one said it, but one said, "The Monkees will always be these four guys". And they were. I respect that. Not a lot of bands can make that claim. From day one until now, with only one Monkee left, for 6 decades, The Monkees have always been Peter, Mike, Micky and Davy. That's success. History will record the miracle that is The Monkees. It's a once in eternity story. And I am glad to have experienced it in real time. Monkeemen forever!
Vinegar Joe were brilliant. I'd forgotten how gorgeous Robert Palmer was. Elton playing piano for TRex, how did I never see that? A mention of CCS - I've never been able to find any videos of CCS on RUclips :(
When I noticed things were changing. School disco 1981, Kraftwerk, Soft Cell, Human League, 1980, The Jam, Ian Dury, The Vapours, XTC, The Clash, The Chords et al,.
Crap, these are pretty tuff! I thought I had my stuff together, but I didn't know half the names mentioned here! Then again, I'm more into the 80s stuff, which was still too new when this aired. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't help but notice Joe Cocker's (bless him) legendary SPAZZ-OUT performances!!! ;^)
@Joe Guitar people like that sometimes stop listening to new music unless someone plays it to them. Mayfield might’ve been too recent for the ‘Northern Soul’ or Tamla Motown. Dunno. It’s still a bit of a surprise. Interesting as well.
Pop Quiz even got this one wrong, Crosby, Stills and Nash had their debut gig at Woodstock. Neil Young didn't join them until their second album Deja Vu. 30:30
He went on the kids show No. 73 performing "Real Wild Child (Wild One)" in 1987 where towards the end he started buggering a giant teddy bear. Live on ITV on a Saturday morning!
@@Sundae_Times So? Well let see here. 1: This title is "Davy Jones on Pop Quiz" so you'd assume they use a thumbnail of Davy Jones correct? 2: The channel is called "raremonkees" so you definately assume they pick a better thumbnail. Maybe one of Davy Jones. Are you blind to this ? I did put an lol at the end of my comment to avoid dickhead comments like yours but even that is too smart for you.

There is one original legend there. We salute you Mr Ox.
I thought Joe "Spazz-Out" Cocker was the original legend! :^D
@@NuGanjaTron I was referring to the panel.
Carol baker was pretty awesome..in her field
@@NuGanjaTron Guffawed at this at 4am. I videoed his bit but with my earphones in so it just looks like a proper mental case
@@prussian5770 Quite hot there in a way I can’t put my finger on
damn, Entwistle and Davy Jones on the same panel, I just died and went to heaven
@@69zenos1 And so will you one day...So true.

They can keep you company
Yes, pretty cool shit! ❤️
"SteveRes" You must date back quite a few decades. How old was Davy Jones here?
Davy Jones
Such a sweetheart
RIP 😭
Never seen this video, but love seeing John Entwistle on Pop Quiz.
Hi Chloe , I can't believe that John missed the Curtis Mayfield
question . The Who used to cover that song ! I have the video to prove it .
Stay safe , cheers .
The ad said "Davy Jones" and the photo was of John Entwistle....so weird I had to check it out! Two of my heroes on the same goofy show!!! Jackpot!
It's better than any game shows in the United States
I thought 2 things..
Firstly, so there are 3 famous singers called Davy/David Jones i.e. The Monkee, David Bowie, who was forced to change his name and this Guy.
Second;y,I thought "Daby Jones has let himself go..."
What a treasure chest! You Brits surely had it better than us Americans, Pop Music TV-wise in 1984!
Vintage year for tv and music here !
Didnt we have Our MTV?😃 I mean you had to pay for cable which was kind of new back then..but if your parents would cough up for cable, you could watch MTV all day and night!
We did have our MTV! I guess it’s just the ol‘ grass looking greener on the other side of the pond... 😂😂😂😂
most countries have better things than the USA
why is there not a programme like this now.....it’s just a nice bit of fun and mike read was really good host....
Because today’s pop stars are untalented morons.
never mind the buzzcocks
Great watching these shows again, with real pop stars
And Davy Jones, too!
No one plays bass like Entwhistle, he’s a beast.
Chris Squire

Fun fact David Bowies real name was David Jones but changed it because of the one already around at time
That’s why his son is known as Duncan Jones

John Entwistle comes across as such a down to earth person. You could imagine having a cup of tea and a chat with him.
Yeah or some Cocaine and Hookers
down-to-earth person - or dour and I'm a Who fan.
@@gaskellr44 met John several times. He always stopped for the fans and was very nice.
@@markzappasodi Thats good then, I was prob being a bit harsh as watching all way thru, he did seem to be a bit more friendly as it went on.
Cup Of Tea? Some OXtail Soup,Shirley?

John 'The Ox' Entwistle. Still an inspiration. Why I play the bass, admittedly badly. Lol.
JOHN ENTWHISTLE AN AWESOME BASSIST
Mr Thunder fingers. We will never forget you. John the gentle giant 👍🏆🇬🇧🎸
I'd like to think that the three 60's Legends threw back a few pints together after the show. #Rock&RollHeaven RIP Davey, John & Dave
My goodness! I can understand everything Entwistle is saying. He's usually too soft spoken and mumbling for Americans like me. This is a great show. I never heard of it before, Looks like I'll be spending time watching these episodes.
Alienart Watch the one with Steve Marriott.
They should bring this show back
"I am standing up"
This was such a wonderful treat! Thank you, #raremonkees
Episode aired Oct 2, 1984
Poor Dave Dee suffered horribly through medical negligence later in his life. Loving the nostalgia trip - watched these on TV as a teenager, I can answer the questions now lol
This is from 1984 at that was the last year of Pop Quiz and at least two songs in the opening were hits(in the US and presumably the UK) in 1984.
Wow, that was one of my favourite shows growing up. I loved that they showed old clips I had missed the first time around but knew from the radio. I live in NY and so enjoyed watching this, thank you!
I love this show😍More clips please!
Thanks for this, I used to love watching Pop Quiz trying to guess the answers 👍
John Entwistle looks like he could be a bank manager or accountant rather than a rock music man. On the other hand he died the most rock 'n roll death in a hotel room bed near Las Vegas with a local stripper and groupie after a cocaine session.
This is excellent. What great TV used to be. Top panel too. Thanks for sharing.
Can’t believe Entwistle missed Curtis Mayfield too. Well, can’t believe he was on the show. Nice to see him though...
Sort of surprised Feargal Sharkey didn’t know XTC. ☺️
Baby you can drive my car. I wish Davey had said 'you know they ripped us off don't you...
Stuart .... didn't play in a band that chartered at one time (particularly in Aust) by any chance, did you?
The song's actual title is Drive My Car.
Dave dee was a handsome man rip to you,davy and john.god bless.

What a line up on this show
Davy Jones doing the 'Finger slapping' that he learned as a Jockey... after all those years !
Feargal is such a happy bubble of Irish joy. Love him!
Wow, this is like Nevermind the Buzzcocks...or name that Tune. Cool seeing Davy!
minus the ego's!
Sigh. Davy Jones gone, Dave Dee gone, John Entwistle gone. Old times - good times.
Why am I only seeing this now? And as a piece of trivia, I saw Roger Chapman and Streetwalkers supporting the Who at Celtic Park in 1976.

I think it was Davy who said that.
@Small Change- Spot on post, my friend.
Tony’s and Davy’s Joe Cocker imitations 😂
Priceless. Try watching a Joe Cocker concert in fast forward -- it'll give you a fit! His arms are just a blur!!! :^D
This must be the original show the Aussies made the Rockwiz from.
I loved this so much more omg!!!
What a great concept for a show!!
What A Fun Show!
Cheryl looking good
She was the intro and the outro.
Dave Dee used to be a policeman and he attended the scene of the car accident that killed Eddie Cochran.
Damn, that is an interesting odd fact. Thanks!
On top of that, he taught himself to play using Cochran's Gretsch guitar while it was impounded at Bath police station after the accident.
O maior baixista da história do rock, John Entwistle
I can't believe Entwistle missed Deep Purple. For shame!
was it some ironic joke maybe?
He was friendly with Nick Simper, but that's a Mk.1 person!
Davy - I am standing up…lol
Many thanks for this. ❤❤❤❤😁😁
I watched this just for John Entwistle
Haha, same.
I clicked because of John Entwistle
I only have heard of Jones and Entwistle.
@0:56 Marcia Brady is in the audience causing all that noise LOL
Vinegar Joe were brilliant. I'd forgotten how gorgeous Robert Palmer was. Elton playing piano for TRex, how did I never see that? A mention of CCS - I've never been able to find any videos of CCS on RUclips :(
Oh, I need to see the next episode, too!!!!!!
Thanks. I never saw Iggy Pop wearing a shirt before!
Bonus to have a young Robert Palmer at the end
When I noticed things were changing. School disco 1981, Kraftwerk, Soft Cell, Human League, 1980, The Jam, Ian Dury, The Vapours, XTC, The Clash, The Chords et al,.

exactly!
@@dixgun Curtis Mayfield never sung on MOTOWN RECORDS.
@@williebowen2965 oh, okay. 👍
"John Entwistle on Pop Quiz" Can't suss out WHY though.
What's your issue with that?
The era when specs were made from the split windscreens of early VW Kombis.
Wonder why John Oates didn’t get a mic in that promo.
1155 was that elton john ?
Kind of an insult to The Stooges to call them Iggy's "backing band." Iggy was the lead singer of The Stooges.
Um, John AND Davy on the same team? Awesome!
Davy love:)
Cheryl was such a fox 😈😈
@23:17 both Lust For Life and The Idiot are from 1977, so Feargal's was correct!
Yep. He was r-o-o-o-bbed!!!
My God they didn't know that was Curtis Mayfield
I saw one of these where none of them got LA woman by the doors, and it was the bit where he sings 'LA woman'.
Pop Quiz even got this one wrong, Crosby, Stills and Nash had their debut gig at Woodstock. Neil Young didn't join them until their second album Deja Vu. 30:30
Neil was onstage at Woodstock with them I believe
1st team: what a line-up including Entwhistle thunder-fingers
I wonder if Davy got the idea for his mullet from the host of this show... :D
Ha ha. I still sport a mullet (of sorts) still preferable to the slaphead or 'Hitler Youth' looks that are fashionable I feel.
@@Bazonthebass Agree. Also can't stand the crop tops or shaven heads looking like they'd just been released on parole either...
Family (Roger Chapman) way too little of them. So great to see the clip.
Mr Entwistle looks as if he can't be arsed being there and Davy Jones looks as if he's confused about the whole concept.
I am rooting for John Entwhistle’s team
That's Bruce Johnston-- with a T
They didn’t know Curtis Mayfield!!!
To be fair, he probably didn't know them either 🤭
If the title is Davey Jones on Pop Quiz. Why a picture of John Entwhistle on Pop Quiz. Did Davey compete from off stage or in a wardrobe?
Mike read fixed that!
Utterly fucking bizarre. I was 6. A different world
Did Mr Jones have his own locker in the Pop Quiz changing room?
Feargal Sharkey is the only one alive on John Entwistle's team.
My God, three men gone on from this now
For shame, Ox -- Curtis Mayfield
I'd like to see a battle play off for the world championship, John Entwistle vs John Paul Jones vs Geddy Lee.
The Iggy Pop question was poorly researched as Feargal Sharkey actually got the question correct. Iggy Pop released two records with Bowie in 1977
why the show didn´t last forever???
1940 his vocals sounds like feargal sharkey .lol.
Imagine Iggy Pop let loose in the kitchen with appliances😂.
Pair him up with Joe Cocker and you'll have it remodelled in seconds! :^D
