    Seeing the righteous Brothers in this opening medley is phenomenal. And I just have to add that Bobby Hatfield was gorgeous. His voice was gorgeous and his look was gorgeous and he was a great dancer, the whole package, and yet he was humble and We had him for too short a time unfortunately. Rest in peace, Bobby.

    WOW!!! What a marvelous opening! I was 14 when this aired and was still very much under the control of my parents - fundamentalist Christians who believed that ANYTHING entertaining was of the devil! I decided that wasn't true and later became a musician who played those styles! Later in the 1960s i caught some of the reruns of Shindig and it helped me get a good grip on popular music.

    @drmorose This was an amazingly quick-paced show that packed a stunning amount of music into 30 minutes (or, for awhile, a full hour.) Those opening medleys were so well-done and so much fun to watch. The rest of the episode often gave you the feeling of having been on the world's fastest musical roller-coaster. I'm with drmorose- how on earth did ABC cancel this?!

      This was co produced by Jack Good who had produced one of UKs best R n R shows of the 50s OH BOY! and if you compare both shows you can see the similarities and Goods influence(he also appears on Shindig as an eccentric Englishman) Auckland New Zealand 2022

      Shindig was cancelled for political reasons. ABC didn't like the racially mixed cast. Jack Good wouldn't have it, so he left.

    @Rowlandph 15 років тому +12

    Shindig was without question the BEST Rock and Roll show ever on TV...
    Look at the production that went into this..
    Midnight Special also had great acts...but no high-energy production...other than the band.

      @pete49327 4 роки тому +3

      Hullalaboo and Where the Action Is were main competitors, both were fun but without a doubt Shindig was king; its fast paced action, backup singers and musicians and overall choreography were top notch.

      This was from a bootleg DVD from the Videobeat, as you can see, they found these from 4th generation VHS tapes, the whole series, so technically yes, but I wouldn't recommend wasting $255 on a crappy quality bootleg set.
