A very fine song, sung by a very fine singer. It is a pleasure to listen to someone singing within their range, knows the words, and is pleasant to listen to. Good show!
You must be proud of your dad. He was with one of the greatest groups known to man. I grew up listening to the Drifters and bought every "45" they made. I still have some of them.
Qué maravillosa canción Me quiebra el alma de nostalgia. Preciosos tesoros de la música en el tiempo. Me gozo hoy día de ver éste hermoso video, en el que veo disfrutar a éstos artistas mientras cantan. Qué bueno por ellos. Ya están en la historia y en muchos corazones en el mundo entero. Desde Panamá un abrazo y bendiciones ❤❤❤🙏🏻🔥🔥🔥🇵🇦🇵🇦🇵🇦
This song is just as cool as any other version given the fact this was a karaoke style merrily sung song in an informal setting - an effortless and natural rendition. Bravo Clyde Brown
The lead singer is Clyde Brown and he took over from Bill Fredericks in the seventies. An adequate replacement but it took awhile for him to get into the Drifter Style. Sang part lead on your More Than A number In My Little Red Book.
The Drifters' version of the song spent three non-consecutive weeks at number one on the U.S. pop chart, in addition to logging one week atop the U.S. R&B chart. In the UK, the Drifters' recording reached number two in December 1960. This single was produced by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, two noted American music producers who at the time had an apprentice relationship with a then-unknown Phil Spector.

@rockinvol Is this the previous line up before the songs "The Boardwalk" and "On Broadway" and "Up On The Roof". I saw a guy sining "On Broadway" and I am wondering who he is. I would like to know. So how long was Ben E. King in The Drifters for?
This is wonderfully rare footage of the Drifters lineup during the mid-1970's when the lineup was Billy Lewis [thank you, EFIT2010], Johnny Moore aka/Johnny Darrow, Joe Blunt and Clyde Brown. This performance is probably from the BBC in England where in the 1970's The Drifters were still a popular vocal group. To those music purists such as myself who appreciate an uploader's information as to where, when & who comprise these Drifters, one of these four may be baritone/bass Bill Fredricks.
Clyde Brown singing here, took over from Bill Fredericks at the time, a hard act to follow. Took him a while to settle in but he became a good member.Still around today? What's he doing now? Could help out the current line up? Thought he might have popped up with Charlie Thomas and his Drifters, wish they could come to the UK.
@karntnisleians actually not entirely true. The man who wrote the lyrics was crippled and his wife was a broadway dancer. The song was a tribute to her telling her not to give up her love (dancing) for him and all he asks is for the last dance. quite sweet actually
HALLOW to every body out there tonight hope you injoy the musice so just sit back and relax from des in the REPUBLICK of Ireland in dublin . INJOY for the next two hrs . From . DES .
My most favorite song ever. I was about five when this song came out, My mother liked to dance and she taught me how But my dad did not dance but he never minded that she danced with other men or went on a girls night out to a club. :)
Anyone know which album this is taken from, or if it was released in this version with this line up? Really like it, can tell it is inspired by the disco wave which oddly makes it really cool.
@sanjeewa61802 Clyde McPhatter had already left the Drifters by this time. It was the last single that Ben E. King did with the Drifters in the fall of 1960.
Kia Ora recall our Uncle Johnny crooning this group in the late 50's & onwards , used to bring all their records from his travels , liked them then , nothing's changed since , tena koe ko Uncle Johnny .
I remember seeing the Drifters as a teenager at home in the UK. I also saw the Harlem Globetrotters and I thought how tall, lean and athletic everyone from America looked. My other favourite was Fats Domino and I came state side, saw him on TV, and WOW! there went that perception...lol
New singers take note. This is music
ed young e
I'm singing this at a venue, trust me, I'll never venture off
Who else is listening to this legendary band in 2023??

A very fine song, sung by a very fine singer. It is a pleasure to listen to someone singing within their range, knows the words, and is pleasant to listen to. Good show!
These songs last for ever thank them all for the music
Now this is music!!
Totally beautiful - many, many memories come to mind!!
GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You must be proud of your dad. He was with one of the greatest groups known to man. I grew up listening to the Drifters and bought every "45" they made. I still have some of them.
Pure Class, one of my favorite songs.
THIS rendition by this DRIFTERS group is my favorite
First time I've heard this absolute classic in an up tempo version and you know what, I love it just as much as the original. Great stuff.
Not only that, but NO auto tune! The talent in this time period was beyone amazing.
My favorite rendition of the song. Love it. One of my favs.
Quite agree with you Phyllis, the original was superb, so were most of their other recordings too. All are timeless classics I think.
Only Oldies, lasts forever, God bless their Souls
i remember this song when i was in high school sigh.1955
How? The song was first recorded between 1958-1960 until it was eventually released in 1960.
He can still remember ;)
i was in High school from 1955 to 1960 you goof..Enjoy the music and dont be so pedantic.Dont you have any music of your own in Indonesia? sheesh,.
WE must be of the same age. Yes, I do remember very well. Still one of my favorites.
great time, when people used to make music.

I love Clyde Brown.
Anybody else really feeling the variation at 1:55? Love these live performances b/c of the way they can switch up the studio version :0)
This song is just as cool as any other version given the fact this was a karaoke style merrily sung song in an informal setting - an effortless and natural rendition. Bravo Clyde Brown
Without the Drifters I wouldn't be able to hear some of my favorite songs right now

The lead singer is Clyde Brown and he took over from Bill Fredericks in the seventies. An adequate replacement but it took awhile for him to get into the Drifter Style. Sang part lead on your More Than A number In My Little Red Book.

Clyde Brown
Mort Schuman . Music by Mort Schuman. Mortimer Schuman . The great and best Mort Schuman.
They don't make music like this anymore
@rockinvol Is this the previous line up before the songs "The Boardwalk" and "On Broadway" and "Up On The Roof". I saw a guy sining "On Broadway" and I am wondering who he is. I would like to know. So how long was Ben E. King in The Drifters for?
Look at my grandpa Billy Lewis 🤣
I'm 13 and alway listen to drifters defiantly bette than the music that's out now!!

this must be about 1975 because one of those guys is Butch Leake, not Joe Blunt.
My father was Grant L. Kitchings who with in 1974
This was the best line up
THIS SONG IM WANT TO WATCH ON MY TV TOMOROW MORNING 9.00 O CLOCK ON MY FAVORITE CHANNEL MAGIC TV PLEASE EMIL
Is that Johnny Moore standing next to the lead vocalist singing in the background?
great band will never die
They were a class act. A bit higher class with the violins and such.
Clyde Brown singing here, took over from Bill Fredericks at the time, a hard act to follow. Took him a while to settle in but he became a good member.Still around today? What's he doing now? Could help out the current line up? Thought he might have popped up with Charlie Thomas and his Drifters, wish they could come to the UK.
He brought pleasure to lots of people. x
@karntnisleians actually not entirely true. The man who wrote the lyrics was crippled and his wife was a broadway dancer. The song was a tribute to her telling her not to give up her love (dancing) for him and all he asks is for the last dance. quite sweet actually
Love this version, and also the Mickey Gilley version from Urban Cowboy.
Why the hell do they want to ruin such a classic track by singing it at this speed, were they in a hurry to get home or being paid by the minute?
HALLOW to every body out there tonight hope you injoy the musice so just sit back and relax from des in the REPUBLICK of Ireland in dublin . INJOY for the next two hrs . From . DES .
Clyde Brown,❤️❤️❤️
fantastic!
Reminds me of Christ Jesus 🙏❤️🛐📖🙌🙌🙌🩸🙌🙌🇨🇭💦🌹🍃🍃🍃🌟🎼🎶🎼🎶🎼 Save the last & the First Dance only for you ❤
This song was 50 years ago no.2 in the world charts #the #drifters

Wasn't this TV performance at Christmas time in London
It's been years. Love this song. Thanks!

Don t forget the Sam Cooke s version !
and it was written for his wife who was a broadway dancer...the song makes so much sense when you know that
Wow - a classic will entertain us for years to come !!
a classic, no matter who does it.
Looking good Ventura. Looking and sounding like a true "Tiger".
Kia Ora recall our Uncle Johnny crooning this group in the late 50's & onwards , used to bring all their records from his travels , liked them then , nothing's changed since , tena koe ko Uncle Johnny .
why this legacy has to come to nonsensical hip hop and rap today!!!!!
Classic stuff love it
The drifters , are still great. I don't know how many times I have played.... Save the last dance for me,by the drifters.
Today alone
Their amazing.
I remember seeing the Drifters as a teenager at home in the UK. I also saw the Harlem Globetrotters and I thought how tall, lean and athletic everyone from America looked. My other favourite was Fats Domino and I came state side, saw him on TV, and WOW! there went that perception...lol
Scots001 i laughed out loud at your comment.
Who is the lead vocal here? Its not Clyde McPhatter I guess.
oh my! for real?
I love 60s music I'm 30 years old is that a problem that I like this music then today's
I came here to look for Nissan DRIFTING videos and i ended up here
GREAT TUNE AND LOVE THE UP TEMPO!
At 0.40-0.48 doesn't the guy at the far left look like Obama.
Great Song.
