GREAT SONGS ! The oldies can't be beat . This was a time when music DIDN'T hurt yours ears and made you feel good ....Really good! No vulgarity , just pure talent , both in songwriting AND the performing of the material I miss these times VERY MUCH .
Thanks! Great Video! (Sorry, can't hear much beauty in the modern music since even the 1990's.)( This was an incredibly beautiful, talented era! Real Professionals!)
There gambit about how their careers were revitalized as their music was included in popular movies and/or TV shows, like "Good Morning Vietnam" was so telling as now their "Your The One" is played in "The Queen's Gambit" so their career gets another boost. Wonderful. Love stuff like this
It's all Troy now. At least the music is still alive and performed with class. It would be nice if we could live forever, especially in a period of time when people actually cared about each other and good jobs were every where but sadly time waits for no one.
Sad such great years we all experienced.. the world today is a sad place.. maybe its because we don’t have beautiful music like this .. simple and beautiful just like the way the world use to be
These guys have their own talent. Enjoy their music for what it is. But I wish folks would stop saying they sound exactly as they did 50 years ago. No, they do not sound like the original Vogues. In fact, Chuck Blasko's group does not sound like the original Vogues -- even though Chuck is one of the 4 originals. This is not a criticism of the singers. It is simply to point out what ought to be obvious: You can line up 3 or 4 of the greatest singers and they will not sound like the originals because they perform under the name. Only the originals can sound like the originals. These groups are tribute groups. They provide great memories in that role.
It's a good point. But this version of the group did have both Hugh and Bill at one time. Sadly Bill passed away. This group does a great job keeping the memories alive.
This group calling themselves the Vogues are not the group from the 60’s. The original group members were Bill, passed away in 2018, Don, who recently passed a couple of weeks ago, Hugh, and Chuck.
How did The Vogues come to my little dump water town of Lake Wales, Floriduh and I heard nothing about it, whatsoever? Lake Wales is uneducated and explains why I`m so ignorant. This is a great music video, thanks for posting, oldiesrockandroller!
I was in high school when these songs charted. I graduated, I got drafted, I survived... nothing else has happened. I'm left with one question... what happened to the second tenor hear? Even my untutored ears detect it's absence.
Sorry to tell you this but the high voice was song by Hugh Geyer,he is not singing in that video and Bill Burkett The lead singer passed away recently! I think Hugh that sang those Beautiful high notes is still alive but he does not perform with them anymore!
I must make a correction Hugh Geyer that sings the high notes is still performing with the vogues, Bob Bill Burkett the original lead singer did unfortunately passed away recently!
@@danielmenefee1943 You were right in the first comment. Hugh fully retired in 2013. I'm a family member of the original Vogues. Chuck is the only original member performing in his own group. Though Troy's group are great guys and put on a great show.
The one with the beautiful voice you are referring to is Hugh Geyer but he is not with this group. He stop performing with his original Vogues in 1974.
@@georgemusic4all4seasons he actually came back to this group for about ten years. He sang with the trademark Vogue's from 2008 till 2018 when he retired.
@@georgemusic4all4seasons Bill Burkette, and Hugh Guyer were both in this Vogue's for over ten years. Bill passed away and Hugh retired. This is now The Vogue's. Members have changed multiple times. Iv played the drums for Bill and Hugh for more than twenty years.
Members change over the years. This group features Troy Elich, son of founding member Stan Elich & Bo Wagner who sang with the group for decades. Royce "The Voice" was a real nice addition to the line up. This is the group working under the trademark today.
@@oldiesrockandroller Stan was not a founding member. The founding members are Bill, Hugh, Chuck and Don. Stan was the trademark owner who passed it on to Troy. Troy and his band are great people and performers. Just not originals or founders.
that is not true. Stan Elich was NOT a founding member of the group.....The originals consisted of Bill Burkette (lead baritone), Don Miller (baritone), Hugh Geyer (first tenor), and Chuck Blasko (second tenor).[2] In 2000, the trademark was purchased by vocalist and Pittsburgh area native Stan Elich. During these years Blasko continued to perform as the Vogues, clashed with the "trademark" group, and eventually testified in front of Congress on the Truth in Music Act. A lawsuit filed by Blasko ended with the Pennsylvania court permitting Blasko's Vogues to perform in 14 Western Pennsylvania counties and the "trademark" group to perform everywhere else in the world as The Vogues. Troy Elich now owns the trademark of the vogues. Chuck Blasko is the only ORIGINAL MEMBEER still performing. .@@oldiesrockandroller
Not the Vogues from Pittsburgh. And since someone else owns the rights to the group's name, they could have put anyone up there.These guys do sound okay and the effort is there. The original Vogues' are only allowed to perform in the Pittsburgh area.
It's not a tribute group. Bill and Hugh were both in this Vogue's for years. Bill passed away two years ago. And Hugh retired. The name has been owened by the same people for the last twenty two years.
They may have bought the name from whoever owned it... or they could be renting the use of the name. I guess "technically" they aren't a tribute group if they are the owners or renters. None of these guys were on any of the hits.
I'd respect these guys more if they would admit that they are a " tribute group" ------not the real Vogues. -----------------------------WolfSky9, 72 y/o

@@WayneMarion Isn't the music business complicated? If you own the trademark, you are entitled to say you "are" the group. Except you cannot say your voice was on the original recordings. I'm a family member of one of the originals and I've spent time with Troy and his group back when Bill and Hugh (original members that came out of retirement circa 2010) were performing with them for a few years. Troy and his band are great guys and carry the torch, but after May 2013, cannot claim they have any original members.
The large singer in the middle has no right to speak 🗣 as if he were in the original group called the Vogues, while speaking of the original groups ups and downs. It’s wrong 😑 and should be illegal but it’s not. He owns the name the Vogues and not one of the three on stage is an original member. This is unfair to Bill, Hugh, Don and Chuck who are and were the Vogues that the large middle guy is referring to.
So none of these are the originals then,I have only just heard of the vogues a few weeks ago and I absolutely love them so I thought I’d look for there songs on youtube and just found this video thinking they were the original group Stay safe

So what! They sound pretty Damm close to me. Don't think they're making money off the real group. Turn Around..what an awesome song to dance to with your special love.
Bill Burkette & Stan Elich would be proud of the act Troy has kept going. It's NOT the same, I agree, however it's still "The Vogues" for a new generation.
Thanks for chiming in -- I just get irritated when replacements stand up on a stage and say " When WE did this song, it was OUR second Hit ... " (and they had NOTHING to do with it) Just giving an example ... right before I wrote my comment, I had just seen the original Vogues perform "Magic Town" in '66 on TV, then immediately after I watched Bill & Hugh do the primary vocals for that great song, a mere 5-6 years ago ( where incidentally, they killed it ).
@@dangibson906 I was in the band as the drummer with Bill and Hugh for ten years. Bill passed away not long ago and Hugh is retired. The band goes on there have been many versions of The Vogue's since 1966 but I'm proud to say that I played with two original members for years. And I can personally tell you they wanted the band to go on and perform those songs.
I appreciate your comments -- it is great to hear from an original member of the group. I really liked The Vogues, for it was so special that they/you came to our little Methodist College and played at our prom. I remember how cordial they were, mingling with the crowd before and after playing for us. Also, Hugh did a little comedy act wearing a huge Mexican sombrero -- do you remember any of this? Hell, it was only 51-52 yrs ago ! THANKS AGAIN ...

i loved these guys from Turtle Creek Pa, shout out loud 1960's
Wow, talk about going back to such a sweet time! You still sound sound so great!
My first album! Your the one I love! My childhood sweetheart and forever!!!
So many years ago!
great blend guys.
The Vogues are from Turtle Creek PA, which is just a short car ride from where I live, just outside Pittsburgh.
The songs are still great. Singers come n go.Thats life.
It’s 2023 almost. And you guys still sound so great!!!
Still love their music. Thank you!!
Turn Around always stirs my soul. Thank you for sharing the Love.

Sad such great years we all experienced.. the world today is a sad place.. maybe its because we don’t have beautiful music like this .. simple and beautiful just like the way the world use to be
At least it's sorta in the family with Troy.....there have been "Vogues" that aren't original or even related to original Vogues.....
This is great music , Iam glad we can still listen to it 😊😊

Fabulous sounds just like back in the day when I was young and music was so beautiful. Thank you for sharing with me personally
thats my dad! Troy Elich❤️
LOVE their songs, Always!❤
...saw them at Bergen PAC in Englewood in June during the Happy Together tour....FANTASTIC!

Love love the Vogues
The original group or this one ☝️.
You guys sound so good - as good or better than ever!!!!!
This is some of the romantic music I grew up with! So now that really dates me....oh well!
Me too!
I was 18 when I first heard the Vogues,still on my iPad music list
I just love all their songs
The music of our generation is still out there! Marvelous absolutely wonderful! BOOMERS RULE OTHERS 🤤 DROOL!
TOTALLY! 👍
Keep the oldies going.
I miss this music
How did The Vogues come to my little dump water town of Lake Wales, Floriduh and I heard nothing about it, whatsoever? Lake Wales is uneducated and explains why I`m so ignorant. This is a great music video, thanks for posting, oldiesrockandroller!
Awesome music!!!!!!
saw them live in Punxy. PA one cold winter
Turn Around Look at Me was our wedding song!
Go Vogues !
Marvelous 👍
They still got it!!!! ❤️🥰
Not really, they are not the original members of the Vogues, not even one ☝️.
STILL FANTASTIC

not the original group, only one original member
