I was so young when I was hearing him on the radio almost all the time. So damn long ago. He was another one of the greats of the 60's gen.
There were a million different dances at that time...
• The Twist
• The Stroll
• The Madison
• The Mashed Potato
• The Hully Gully
• The Freddie
• The Frug
• The Hitch-Hike
• The Loco-motion
• The Shimmy
• The Swim
...and loads more
I didn't even know they had names.
Daniele forgot "The Jerk," "The Watusi," and "The Monkey"
The Hitchhike was a very special dance, you needed 42 members to pull it off.
He has another good one called "Hat's Off to Larry."
I saw Del Shannon perform live in (around) 1978 at the Brunton Hall, Musselburgh, just outside my hometown of Edinburgh, Scotland UK.
He was on tour with “Johnny and the Hurricanes” (on the same bill). I still have the poster.
Omg. Nice.
Falsetto & (ground-breaking) keyboard: 🔥🔥🔥
This song was in the movie "American Grafitti". It's a great film that takes place in the eraly 60's.
You I can't dance.
You, again: I can't sing.
Me: So what? What you CAN do is give myself and many others cause to smile from ear to ear, when watching your honest reactions to the songs of our (sadly, distant) youth, and thus rememebering the great times we had dancing to these same songs back in the day!
:-)
We're doing well!
Hi Tysheen, I always enjoy your joyful reactions!!! Thanks for putting a smile on our faces!!!
Glad to hear that I put a smile on someone face. Thanks CR.
Hello Tysheen..from TX.Ur eyes has so much Energy. Thanks.⚘🇨🇱
Good music does that. lol
I always lived this song.
Ness my favorite song
You're 1 of the realist reviewers
It is the theme song to a TV show Crime Story.
That was Max Crook with his invention of the Musitron his weird keyboard. He changed the circuitry of a Claviolin organ and that's what he played in the middle of the song. This keyboard was a forerunner to the synthesizers that are used in Rock and Pop Music. This song is ahead of its time. When Del Shannon heard Max play that solo in another song that captivated Del's attention. So the song was composed around that organ solo. Things would have been possible without Max Crook and his Musitron.
This song was the theme song for the tv show "Crime Story"
Kurt Caldwell brought me here.
Fantastic song. Del was awesome.
You have a old soul, you truly a one of a kind, blessing to you
Thanks James.
Del, had a load of hits, here in U.K. Rock on DEL.
That "groovy" sound was made by some synthesizer especially for this song. This song was so popular it was selling 80,000 copies weekly for a few weeks. I'm listening since I heard it back then and still love it. The movie American Graffiti 72, has all these great songs. Was a steppingstone for Happy Days. Which starred Ron Howard, Richard Dreyfuss, Cindy Williams (Laverne & Shirley). Great movie if someone digs great retro music.
There were no synths at that time.
@@bernardweis5732 instruments called synthesizers weren't sold commercially sure but anything that synthesizes sound electronically rather than mechanically is in the category, similar to how empty bucket could be a percussion instrument. theremin from 1920s might be one of earliest examples but in this case it was the keyboardist's own invention that he called a Musitron and it is a type of synthesizer.
It's a modified Clavioline, a vacuum tube oscillator and forerunner to the analog synthesizer invented by French engineer Constant Martin in 1947.
Similar to a synthesiser, it's called a musitron. which according to several people that Max crook who co wrote with del actually invented himself.
There payed dancer's.... The real deal, was dirty.👌😉
My day is just getting started, but then it's 5am here. Hope yours is going well as well. I used to imitate singers like this when I was a kid...now I probably have too much bass in my voice to even try, lol. If you like his voice changes maybe give Frankie Valley/The Four Seasons a try :) They did songs like Walk Like A Man, Big Girls Don't Cry, Sherri Baby, Peanut, etc. I'm sure Del did other songs, but I'm personally not familiar with any of them. NBC did use his song "Runaway" as the theme song to a tv show they did in the '80's called Crime Story, a cop show set in the 50's that I really wanted to like when I was a teen but I just couldn't get into it.
Very good.
I was your 200th 👍 also kinda a sad back story. He ended up committing suicide, he was a one hit wonder. He made music for awhile but nothing real hit. Runaway is Iconic.
Lou Christie...I'm Gonna Make You Mine.
Same here can’t dance a lick,heeheee.
There is a great version of this song by bonnie Raitt with a badass harmonica player from the 70s, check it out even if you dont do a video. Easy to find on youtube
Second and first 🇨🇦,my choice for Del is sea of love,,it was covered by Robert plant and it was my nans favorite.🇨🇦👍
❤️😍🇨🇦😷
My favorite was always Phil Phillips version of the song.
@@Rebel9668 that is also a great version 🇨🇦😷
this track is of historical interest. its a product of very early elotronic music (later called synth pop)
The Shangri-Las - Remember (Walking in the Sand)
Talk about dances you should react to Chubby Checkers "The twist",and "twist again"
Nice reaction! Try Jay and the Americans "Come a Little Bit Closer" and "Cara Mia." Your jaw will drop.
Elvis covered this song live on stage in 1969. You should check it out.
That must have been some sort of vintage keyboard making that solo
A correction it was selling 80,000 copies a day for several weeks that went on several weeks
An organ.
Can you do a reaction to Shakin Stevens song Merry Christmas everyone
This was his greatest song (he has a few lesser hits)
That was done with a keyboard. I've heard it was a steel guitar with tissue paper under the strings.
He shot himself.
And tell me how do you dance to rap
I can't dance at all, You might have to ask someone else. lmao
I guess in a few decades people will say: Lock how cute these dances were back in the 20', just like a seizure. :D Cheers and fun! :)
