    My great grandmother is 81 and she said that she went to a dance...a sock hop... with her friends and met a boy from another school. A couple of weeks later at another dance that boy gave her a corsage and kisses her hand and her cheek. She was 16 and he was 18...they will celebrate their 65 years of dating and 63 years of marriage in August. She said that their first dance was to Little Anthony....the first dance at their wedding was Little Anthony...he is the first song played every anniversary for them...and they still dance together!!! Thank you Little Anthony..........

    Mr. Gourdine ( better known as Little Anthony ) !!!! I remember watching you all preform from around the age of 5 in 1963 on through the enjoyment of watching you all in this video here in 2023 . Your legacy is nothing short of impeccable . You'll forever be entrenched in the hearts and minds of people , and fans , from all over the world .

    My Father passed in June 2022. He didn't have anything physical to leave..in fact we had him in my home for Hospice. We made sure his last days were filled with the music of his time and family. I can recall the last time he was responding. In The end we played just the beautiful sounds of nature. My Fathers Legacy for me is his teaching of doing what's right which I did in the end, but he also leaves a Legacy to me of the music of his youth which Little Anthony and the Imperials are part of. It has had a profound impact to me as a musician. His memories of this music of his youth are mine in the 1970's via CBS FM in New York. When I hear these songs, they are also my childhood memories. He couldn't play an instrument and he sand like Edith Bunker but what an influence in my musical education. With that any time I listen to this music he's with me.....

    This is an absolutely stunning documentary about a wonderful group I have heard and loved all my life. TJ has outdone himself. The reason I sought out this video is because Little Anthony and the Imperials will be touring with the Happy Together Tour this summer and I have tickets. Anthony is about 82 years old now, as are many artists on the tour. I am really looking forward to this concert! Long live Little Anthony!

    Thanks so very much for this program. I met Little Anthony in Cleveland ,Ohio in 1965. I was a side musician on a date at LEO'S CASINO. I was working with Smokey Robinson and the Miracles at that time. Man what a time .I look back and tell my grandchildren who I worked with the people I have met, they just look at me you know. But programs like this keeps the memory strong in my head and guys like myself who were around and played this music. Thanks so very much for this.

      I remember as a kid listening to my older brother's and sister's music and Little Anthony and James Brown was definitely included in their repertoire. My twin brothers always went to James Brown concerts.. Music was a big part of our lives such that our mother saw to it that we learned to play instruments. But Little Anthony can still sing really well in old age. I saw them on the Ed Sullivan Show years ago too.

    A lot of people don't know during the late 70s one of their members who is back with them now and he's on stage in all the clips shown here was a member of the Ojays and enjoyed great success with them when one of their members died. When the Imperials reunited he left the Ojays after spending around 20 years or more with them to get back with the Imperials. In case anyone is wondering I'm talking about Sammy Strain, what a blessing to have success in not just one group but two.

To be honest, I am most grateful to have savored this music and my son even loves this music, so I have given the baton on to my family. Thank you for bringing so many fond memories of my childhood.

    Goin’ Out of My Head Lyrics
    [Chorus]
    Well, I think I'm going out of my head
    Yes, I think I'm going out of my head
    Over you
    Over you
    [Verse 1]
    I want you to want me
    I need you so badly
    I can't think of anything but you
    [Chorus]
    And I think I'm going out of my head (Out of my head)
    'Cause I can't explain the tears I shed (No, out of my head)
    Over you
    Over you
    [Verse 2]
    I see you each morning
    But you just walk past me
    You don't even know that I exist
    [Refrain]
    Goin' out of my head over you (Out of my head)
    Out of my head over you (Out of my head)
    Out of my head day and night
    Night and day and night
    Wrong or right
    [Bridge]
    I must think of a way
    Into your heart
    There's no reason why
    My being shy
    Should keep us apart
    [Chorus]
    And I think I'm going out of my head
    Yes, I think I'm going out of my head

    (Night and day and night) Yeah
    (Wrong or right) Oh, alright

    I had the great good fortune to have stayed late at my Music Center of LA office one day when the guard calls to say Mr. Gourdine is there asking if my boss was still in. I didn't recognize the name immediately but went downstairs to take a message since my boss was gone for the day. Mr. Gourdine introduced himself saying "you may be too young but you may remember me when I was known as Little Anthony." He had worked with my boss on a project some time back and stopped by to say hello. My mouth dropped open and I was FLOORED having Little Anthony there before me and of course, I gushed all over him and offered to walk around with him to see who he might know that still worked there. He was so humble and gracious and I was so thrilled to find a writer there who was as much a music fan as I and we both lost our minds with joy to meet and spend a little time with him!

    I saw Little Anthony at a club in Jersey around 1969. Between shows he was standing around watching another group and I said hi, he was so gracious. You rock!

    I was five years old, but I sure remember the excitement of the musical late fifties and sixties. I was aware of music all my life due to my Mom singing with a Sweet Adelines quartet. This is a great doc.

    Haven been born in the middle fifties, this was the music of my parents and mine as well. "Little" Anthony and the Imperials are a class act, great performers. The music of the thirties to the sixties is still so dear to me because this is what I was brought up on.

    I seen Little Anthony and the Imperials, around 8 years ago in North Wales in the UK.
    His performance was Immaculate, but i would of liked him to have sung 'Better Use Your Head' and 'Im Gonna Fix You Good' but i guess, that his age was going against him.
    I will never forget this once in a lifetime chance i had to see him.
    Absolute GOLD!

    I decided to listen and watch this performance. I was always aware of Anthony and the Imperials. I followed them since I was 16-I'm now 75 now. One of the The things I admire them is I never heard anything about bad discord in the group like some of the other groups. Anthony has to be in his early 80's and still going strong. I lost my voice way before that.😅😂.
