@@jeffwilliams196 without 1968 we wouldn't have had Sittin on the Dock of the Bay, Hey Jude, Cry Like a Baby, It's a Beautiful Morning, Since You've Been Gone (Sweet Sweet Baby). I'll agree it started to slip, but there were some good songs that year.
I remember the week this 1st hit the charts. One of the local stations in New Orleans had a "pick hit" of the week. It was a new song that the station thought would be a big hit. The station nailed this one.
Produced by none other than Sylvester "Sly" Stone (Sly and the Family Stone). Even then, Sly had an ear for hits. This was an incredible single, released on a label -- Autumn -- I believe, Sly co-owned.
My father, Bob, was one of the founders of the Beau Brummels. He went to Sacret Heart in the City with Sal. It's awesome to see some of their stuff online for my kids to dance to. Thanks!
Just as good now as it was back then. . . Great songs arent just great in their particular era, they're great for all time and this is one of them. . .
+B Smith Well, you know how Pop music is--just because its popular doesnt mean it's Great; or even Good;. It just means its Popular; The trouble with Pop is though that as soon as it isnt popular anymore it doesnt sound good anymorel Great pop songs ALWAYS sound great, fresh and relative because they are great songs.

Great song! I was born several years later after this song came out (late 60's) but hearing it makes me wish we were back in the 60's, when times were simpler and we didn't have the crap-ass junk today that passes for "music".
This song brings back a rush of memories. I was just 14 years old, almost 15, and a freshman in high school when this record was first released. It was one of many tunes that comprised the soundtrack of my rebellious youth. Those were heady days and the future lay in front of me. As for this song, "Laugh, Laugh" has great lyrics, a somewhat bluesy harmonica and fine drum work. It's a classic!

Uncle Buck Movie from 1989 The late John Candy as Buck Russell. Great movie with a great song. Never knew that it was from 1964. Sound great in 1989, 1990's, 2000's, 2010's, 2020, 2021 and now in 2022. MeTV showed a clip as the Beau Brummelstones on the Flintstones. This song, the Flintstones and Uncle Buck will never get old.
I have been especially proud to come from the time period I did. Nothing like it before nothing like it since. The music was our communication system with each other. Starting with The Beatles on Ed Sullivan Show and progressing on through Woodstock. In my 70s now I'm still captivated by the wonder of it all in retrospect. We were young and adventurous funding new ways of being. Always the music was central to our way of life. Good video here captures the look and sound of the time.
Who remembers....we were in High School in the summer of 1964...The Beau Brummels came out with this monster hit....It was "Boss"...Do U Remember...So great being young & free..
I remember this song so well. I was 15 years old and a sophomore in high school. It was always a great cruising song back in the 60's, long before FM & stereo radio. I'll always remember the great AM sound this song had in the car. Love it!
I was just a little girl, but l knew this was musical magic. Not only are the lyrics clever and true, but the tune is playful, mean, and yet somehow not cruel while delivering a harsh truth. Harmonica and drum is essentially brilliant besides.
Having this song stuck in my head since I was a kid brought me here and I can relate to it very well. Had a recent fallen out with a lady that I was close friends with. She would complain about how bad he was and that she was tired of him, but could never seem to leave him alone. I told her that he was, in fact, bad news and that she had no reason to keep seeing him. Long story short, he did EXACTLY what I said he'd do and she called me the other night to offer a sincere apology. I accepted, but I'm keeping her at arm's length so that she won't take me for granted anymore.
The scenario in this song reminds me of a girl I liked as teenager. She rebuffed me and was impregnated by a real jerk. Years later, divorced from her bad boy, regretted she didn’t date me.
Sorry man. I think of 1965. And I dug the Flintstones growing up. You had to live through that beautiful time to know what it feels like as a teen. Remember taking my first gf to Pete's Tavern for a pie (that's pizza in Jersey parlance lmao). First gal to stick her tongue down my throat. And that was just the beginning. :-). Nineteen sixty five. Yeah baby.
saw them at the san mateo county fair (20 miles south of san francisco) in july 1965. they weren't famous yet, but they played this song they were great. i was 16.
That must have been great joebill48. I must be about 10 years younger than you, would have loved to have been a teen in those days- at least as far as the music is concerned! Even when I was seven and eight years old I like music like this. Some of the teenagers in my neighborhood borrowed my records because I had a better collection LOL I think a lot of people thought the Beau Brummels were from England, but As you of course know they were part of The bay area music scene of that time. Although didn’t they have an Irishman as part of the group? Actually, when I found out about the Bay area groups, I thought that the Beau Brummels, We Five, and Harpers Bizarre all had Somewhat similar sound.
I got this thing stuck in my head for the last several days, & it almost drove me NUTS (I never have listened to the words of songs, so I didn't even know the name of it- OR the group). Turns out it's extremely well-written! (& played)
Sal Valentino rerecorded this song several years ago for a solo album. I forget when. His vocal tone is a bit harsher, but the melancholic tone is deeper and more mature. I love both versions.
The wailing of the harp is a prelude to the bouncy middle of this song. Such a well cafted song. Imagine of the music competition of the 1960's!!! And these guys were so good but overshadoed. by groups who changed how pop/rock music is played.
what did I just listen to? sounds like what a teenager would hear over the car radio in a 1965 Impala station wagon while mom drives to the supermarket on a rainy Friday night - in 1965.
High school...Air Force...First Texas,then Nevada,Thailand,Vietnam then back to Nevada then Home...Not a combat vet.... A crew chief...F-4's.Good luck to you 09jitters
I totally came here because of Uncle Buck, but the song sounded very familiar... and voila, I come to find it's from my beloved Flintstones... love this
As others have noted this was produced by Sly Stone of Sly and The Family Stone fame. He now lives in a small van parked on a street in the Crenshaw district in South Central L.A. Spends his days smoking crack. I was down there visiting a friend a couple of weeks ago and the van was pointed out to me by a guy who smokes with him.
Sly stone produced some of their early music. So, no wonder they were able to co-exist with the British Invasion of 1964. Good day's. Pre-Vietnam, not a bad X to be alive. I'm Black, I was 3 years old at the time, but, I'd say even for Black people, ( I grew up in CT. Thank God.) There was still an air of innocence, atleast until 1966, when Vietnam began being broadcast into our living rooms. Sorry, for the tangent, but, I dearly love that period, & this kind of music from that era.
I love the Beau Brummels I've been listening to them for more than 20 years I love the voice of Sal Valentino thank you for posting this video it really take me back Samantha

One of the best things about the song.

Around 1968 or so a teenage girl down the street sold a bunch of albums at a yard sale. I bought a bunch of great records and this was among them.

I got this thing stuck in my head for the last several days, & it almost drove me NUTS (I never have listened to the words of songs, so I didn't even know the name of it- OR the group). Turns out it's extremely well-written! (& played)
Just Love the Harmonica in ‘ Laugh Laugh💕💕💕💕💕
what a great oldie! i'm so thankful for the internet and youtube where something like this can be watched and enjoyed again; thanks man.
lol. This dude is so bitter to such a pleasant melody. Great song!
Sal Valentino rerecorded this song several years ago for a solo album. I forget when. His vocal tone is a bit harsher, but the melancholic tone is deeper and more mature. I love both versions.
Love this old music.
The wailing of the harp is a prelude to the bouncy middle of this song. Such a well cafted song. Imagine of the music competition of the 1960's!!! And these guys were so good but overshadoed. by groups who changed how pop/rock music is played.
A vfavorite of mine. Growing up to this music, 1960's was the best time ever.
I still love this song :)
what did I just listen to? sounds like what a teenager would hear over the car radio in a 1965 Impala station wagon while mom drives to the supermarket on a rainy Friday night - in 1965.
Cry just a little. Two great songs.
Awwwwright still jammin in 2024 from Maui Hawaii 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

I totally came here because of Uncle Buck, but the song sounded very familiar... and voila, I come to find it's from my beloved Flintstones... love this
As far as I am concerned , The 1960’s was a golden age for music!
Oh, I just ADORE the Beau Brummelstones. Don't you betty?
This song will stick to your head better than any brit song
As others have noted this was produced by Sly Stone of Sly and The Family Stone fame. He now lives in a small van parked on a street in the Crenshaw district in South Central L.A. Spends his days smoking crack. I was down there visiting a friend a couple of weeks ago and the van was pointed out to me by a guy who smokes with him.
Great song during a great feel good era!
Sly stone produced some of their early music. So, no wonder they were able to co-exist with the British Invasion of 1964. Good day's. Pre-Vietnam, not a bad X to be alive. I'm Black, I was 3 years old at the time, but, I'd say even for Black people, ( I grew up in CT. Thank God.) There was still an air of innocence, atleast until 1966, when Vietnam began being broadcast into our living rooms. Sorry, for the tangent, but, I dearly love that period, & this kind of music from that era.
I love the Beau Brummels I've been listening to them for more than 20 years I love the voice of Sal Valentino thank you for posting this video it really take me back Samantha
Thanks for posting the full recording and not the 1960's AM fade out version.
It was the album version that had the fade-out while the 45 single version had the full version. Usually, it's the other way around.
........A TIMELESS CLASSIC........!!!!!!!!!!
The first time I've ever heard this song is from the movie "Uncle Buck" and that hilarious dance scene with John Candy and Laurie Metcalf. 😂😂😂
This song been invading my dreams! Finally listening to it couple dozen times till got it out of my system! Ya think? LOL
As a child I was first introduced to this terrific song on an episode of the Flintstones. Yabba Dabba Dooo!
