Hilarious! These ladies I work with play the 50's and 60's radio station on satellite and this song comes on all the time. I can't even hear it without thinking about the Flintstones. I'm glad this clip is on here.
I always thought it was the Mersey sound, and I have always loved this song. It was great to find out the Beau Brummell were actually from San Francisco. One of so many great groups to come out of the Bay Area in that era. We Fiive also from San Francisco has a similar sound as far as I am concerned. This is a great clip I remember it when it was first shown. I only question is: was that actually the Beau Brummels singing? It sounded kind of slow as compared to the actual version, which I am absolutely familiar with.
@@SW2799 Yes. This version was the Beau Brummels singing and playing live. There's a video of the actual performance: ruclips.net/video/1_GeYgT58d0/видео.html from Shindig
I had to look up this video since I was playing the MP3 of the song. Great boyhood memories of first hearing this song on the Flintstones in the 70's. This song predates me by nearly a year and a half. I came into the world when "Monday, Monday" by the Mamas and the Papas was at number 1.
Love this!!! So glad someone put a new clip of Beau Brummelstones; previous one a few yrs ago was taken down. That clip was later in this episode showing band at replica of Ah Fongs restaurant in Hollywood.
This vid is so very cute !! I wish I could Favorite it 10 times The Flintstones Babes (plus Baby Bam-Bam) AND The Beau Brummels !! Dayng the dummer's using FEMUR bones for stix ! VERY clever cartoon idea -- kudos to the creator of this episode
If the Beatles recorded this perfect pop gem it would have been an ever bigger international hit song. The song was produced by some young unknown aspiring 21-year-old genius named Sylvester Stewart, who the world would soon find out about his own brilliant music when he decided to call himself the one and only Sly Stone!
Fred later turns off the television and Jimmy Oneilstone’s arm reached out of the set and turned it back on. My kid brother and I would crack up at that!
True, they focused on Ron Elliott, who wrote the song. But Sal (tambourine) memorably sang the song, so beautifully. Truly one of the great songs of the era.
@bender1958 Man I agree. But the Rock and Roll Hallof Shame is run by people that wouldn't know realrock music if it hit them in the face. Just remember, if you're not pissing somebody off, you're not playing rock 'n'roll.
REALLY SAD most under age 60 (GenX, Millenials, GenZ) are not observant/clueless about what happened in 1965, a time teens could LAUGH, DANCE, MORE OPTIMISTIC about their futures! Seemingly not so for today's unhappy, under-educated, artificial machine-embracing, shorter life expectancy teens and young adults.
@problem49 As I've said several times, it seems the RRHOF is more interested in pandering to the MTV crowd than respecting the fans of real rock and roll.
It's a shame that the Rock and Roll Hall Fame (or should I say Rock and Roll Hall of Lame) are eager to display Lady Gaga's meat dress, but will not induct the Beau Brummels, the Monkees, or Paul Revere and the Raiders.
@bender1958 Unfortunately, the R&R HOF is now a joke and has been for a while. It was legit in the early years when the likes of Elvis, Chuck Berry, Bill Haley, Beatles, Stones etc were inducted, but once they started putting pop artists and that ilk in there, it became a joke. It became a popularity contest, and it no longer mattered what kind of music they performed. It became all about how big the artist is, not what they did for "Rock" music. Madonna? Rappers? Leonard Cohen? ABBA? A joke.
TubeGunner . And the same is true of Hollywood's Walk Of Fame. Seems EVERY popular new young celebrity gets a star. Before,It took a long line of great roles or performances to earn a star. It's all just $ and Popularity Of The Day now!
Abba Dabba Doo. SStill have to dedicate this tune my exe husbands lastC*(t. As soon AS I filed for divorce, he dropped her like a box of hot rocks! Who's laughing now?
The Hall of Fame? The Beau Brummels--only two hits and a couple of cult status LPs--no; the Monkees-respectable chain of hits, but clear influence by the Beatles who also laid the ground for video---no; Paul Revere and the Raiders-respectable chain of hits, big tv presence and Mark Lindsey was as raw as teen idoldom would allow; but the Stones, Animals and Them laid the foundation--no. I like all three of these acts, but these are the standards that the HOF tries to hold to, but not always.
The Flintstones is what introduced me to the Beau Brummels. I remember back in the early 2000s, "Laugh Laugh" was on the radio. When I said it's The Beau Brummels, he asked me how I knew that, and I told him they were on The Flintstones.
Like several other commenters, I first watched this as a child, and that was my intro to the BBs. The melodies in this song immediately penetrated me, and they've stayed with me all these years. And they flow perfectly. The singer tells the story with the first. The second (the "laugh laugh" part) is more exuberant. The third ("Oh so lonely") is quieter, introspective, and forlorn. Each melody is catchy, and all together flow into a full experience. This really is a great song.
I love The Flinstones and this is my favorite song during the run of this show. When I found out that it was based on a real group later, The Beau Brummels, I got the song from Itunes.
I know right. Isn't amazing they had so many One Hit Wonder Acts. The Vogues (Five O Clock World), The Spiral Staircase (More Than Yesterday), Archie Bell & The Drells (Tighten Up), The Foundations (Build Me Up Buttercup).
@@t.l.knight8005 The Foundations also had a hit w/ 'Baby now that I've found you & the Vogues had hits w/ 'Turn around look at me' & 'You're the one' '.
I remember watching this on tv when it aired back in the mid 60s. When I'd hear this song on the radio, I'd think the cartoon characters are singing this song.
On this day in 1965 {December 3rd} the Beau Brummels, as the Beau Brummelstones, made a guest appearance on the ABC-TV program 'The Flintstones'... As shown above they performed "Laugh, Laugh"*; and just under a year earlier on December 27th, 1964 the song entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart at position #96, seven weeks later on February 14th, 1965 it would peak at #15 {for 2 weeks} and it stayed on the chart for 12 weeks... Six days prior to their appearance on 'The Flintstones' their "Don't Talk to Strangers" was at #62 on the Top 100 and that was also its last day on the chart... * Personally, when I first heard "Laugh, Laugh" in 1964 I thought the song's title was "Last Laugh", and it could have been, for it fits...
Interesting, because this isn't the original version but a re-record. Probably cheaper to do it that way than to license the master for broadcast. But this is like product placement, it's basically a commercial for the single, which was in process of being promoted. Love strange stuff like that. So cool.
Apparently this was a real song back in the 60's, after watching this a couple of years back I Googled it. Thing is though, is it just me or does the lead singer look like Paul McCartney of the Beatles? And the drummer looks like Ringo Starr.
Yes, it was Shindig, and if you do a search you can see the real Beau Brummels performing Laugh Laugh on the show. There is also a great clip of them performing Sad Little Girl and You Tell Me Why (live) on Shindig.
Assuming that I thought that...I just thought it was funny. I'm from Cali.....perhaps just young enough to have missed that "phrase".....or too far inland to have heard it from the local goofy footed freaks that rode the waves eh?
Either an outtake looped into the sound track or they rerecorded the song to fit the segment length. Watch the barely seen splices in the animation. Not all of the song was animated. the movement segments repeat a couple of times. H/B pioneered limited animation to produce made for TV cartoons cost effective. The BB's animation shows the technique in full application
Danny Hutton just previously to becoming a member of the Three Dog Night (his solo song Roses and Rainbows 1965) also appeared briefly on the Flintstones as he was another artist on the H&B record label
Was just listening to this song remembering it from the Flintstones, but couldn't remember the name of the group (thought it was the Beau Brummelrocks, lol)😊
I wonder how big the audience was that night this played on the Flintstones...i watched them I think on ABC Chanel 7 in New York City and the show had a big following on TV. a few years later I found there album on the discount rack at Genovies drug store and bought it for like 99 cents.Sold it when I sold all my albums.
Shinrock announcer, "One of the country's most popular recording groups, the Beau Brummelstones...." wonder what country that would be .....? US of Rock, Great Rockstone, Amerirock, Stoneland? ..Hmmmmmmmm...
Great Underrated Mid-60's Song. But with that said, this premise we are presented with doesn't quite make sense. Middle-Age Married Wives rarely go crazy over Young Rockstars.

I remember this one to....
Me too!
You're not alone
Me too !
Before my time, but saw it as a rerun in the 80's or 90's. However, I like the group.
Such a melodically pleasing song. That simple harmonica really *makes* it.
Yah and I like how nobody was actually playing the harmonica
Loved it when Fred shut off the TV and the hand came from the screen, turned on the TV and Jimmy said: Welcome back to Shinrock.
I remember that
Hahaha..that's the part I was looking for.
It's one way to keep their ratings up.
If only they could make that happen for real! (2/2/2022)

I found that out yearscago. He did a good job.
Yes. Johnny Rivers, Herman's Hermits, Moody Blues, Turtles. They all deserve to be in the RRHOF much more than Public Enemy or NWA

Amen, Three dog night and the Grass Roots as well.

These characters images are so close to the Beatles only playing different instruments...lol I was so lucky to be a little kid back then..
I have this song on my iPod and my CD's
Wow, you do???
Me too
Amen a real fun time
Looks like Ringo on bass and Paul playing tambourine..
I thought they were supposed to be a spoof of The Rolling Stones
@@KRobinson-ko1ne it’s the Beau Brummels , they were a real group
Should’ve done an episode with the byrds called the byrdstones
Funny how the drummer and the tambourine player look like cartoon versions of Paul McCartney, and Ringo, even though it isn't the Beatles..
The voice of.Sal Valentino was fantastic back.then, huh? They were fantastic during their time.
Good eye!
Yeah I was thinking that myself, and one of the guys looked like a young John Lennon.
@TimKangaroo - exceptional editing! The fade was excellent.
I Remember first seeing this & someone watching it with me thought that they're like the Monkees.
wrong lead singer zoomed in on - Sal Valentino was the tambourine guy-not the guitarist - oy vay
True, they focused on Ron Elliott, who wrote the song. But Sal (tambourine) memorably sang the song, so beautifully. Truly one of the great songs of the era.
And the bass player, Ron Meagher, wasn't left handed.
Plus, the guitarist on the left, Declan Mulligan played the memorable harmonica riff ... and John Petersen was blonde! 🎵🎶🥁😊✌️
@bender1958 HEAR HEAR, Bender!! This was music!!!!
a pure Beatles Clone

@@thelmalee489 They should be a RAP & HIP HOP hall of fame for rap & hip hop artists.
Yeah and while the RRHOF inducts Madonna and ABBA, they ignore the Brummels and Paul Revere and the Raiders
Those guitars had to be heavy!
Heavy ROCK instead of Heavy Metal.

Lol -What makes you think they're in their 40s??
What? They weren't that old. Pebbles is in diapers! Anyhow, Fred and Barnet couldn't compare to Sal Valentino.
“Was tv already color in 1964?”

How many remember when Ann Margaret was on the show?
Ann Margrock!
You bet!
Was Rock Hudson ever on the Flintstones? He could keep the name the same!
I think he was - didn't they call him "Rock Quarry?"
Was it really her though?
This was one of the best things about the original Flintstones cartoon show, the way they always had special musical guest stars in some episodes.
What I like about these guest stars is they didn't mind sending themselves up
I am old enough to remember this being on TV. Great stuff!~
