Season 2, Episode 22 - ABC
The Everly's cover of "Love is Strange" (one of my favorite Everly Brothers songs) only made it to 128 on Billboard, but it did get to #11 in the U.K. Last month, Sept. '65, they performed a live version on "Shindig!"
The Action Kids: Steve Ciro, Jerilyn Stapleton, Roger Minami, Lesley Evans, Mike Williams, Roberta Tennes, Pete Menafee, Jill Gordon, and Joy Ciro.
Location: Port of Los Angeles, CA near the Wilmington oil fields. The ship is the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk (CVA-63, later CV-63) as identified by @SSN515. In 7 days from this episode’s airing, she will ship out to Vietnam.
Thank you to @jthyme7940, Gary, the Don to my Phil, (lol) for helping me get this clip posted.
I love sharing these classic clips and hearing from the ol' gang. Posting is still a blast! I hope to have more clips to share soon.
Thank you for watching!
Fantastic stuff! I do hope you have more Action goodies up your sleeve.
Thie Everly Brothers version of Love is Strange is by far my favorite. Love this video. Wish I could have been one of the dancers. Wonder where in L.A. it was filmed. Unusual location with all of the oil rigs and a big military ship. I'm a Northern California person, so not as familiar with L A. except for Disneyland.
I'm guessing maybe Long Beach.
I'm pretty sure it's Long Beach but confused by the aircraft carrier behind them. IIRC Long Beach was never a carrier port.
Thanks Aaron and Gary for another classic

A great time in rock n roll history... the 60s and 70s. The Everly Brothers were GREAT.
They were.
@@tinydancer62 I'd go back to the 60s and 70s and stay, I would even repeat my 4 years in the Marine Corps 1973-1977
@@usmc-veteran73-77 Thank you for your service. I wish I had been born 10-15 years earlier. I would have loved to have been a dancer on one of those shows.
@tinydancer6949 I dated a girl in the mid-70s who lived in Jacksonville, North Carolina, when I was stationed at Camp LeJeune. Boy, could she dance. She could have been a full-time dancer on Dick Clark's "American Bandstand."
@tinydancer6949 BTW thank you, I loved serving our great County. I'd do it again.
Thank you for featuring this Everly Brothers classic. Don and Phil first performed as young boys with their parents Ike and Margaret Everly on KMA in Shenandoah, Iowa in the 1940's and 50's before moving to Nashville--and eventually superstardom. The Everly Brothers Childhood Home was moved and remodeled, and is located next to the Greater Shenandoah Historical Museum!!
You are most welcome @mikepeterson8388. Like many, I love, love, love the Everly brothers. (RIP)
In 1965 United States, there wasn't a single young man who did not want to dance with Jeri Lyn!
By 1965 The Everly Bros. were has-beens in America, but they had signed a long term contract with Warner Bros. Records so they kept recording with little success other than “Bowling Green” in 1967.
I love their mid 60s music, like this song, also "Gone, Gone, Gone" "Price of Love", "Talking to the Flowers", "Bowling Green" and "Love of the Common People ".
@@tinydancer62 You left out “Lord of the Manor” as well as their excellent “Two Yanks In England” LP.
@@moorlock2003 I did forget to mention those, thank you for reminding me. I have the "Two Yanks in England " LP. It is outstanding.
The Everlys really took a hit when the British Invasion happened. It wasn’t that the music they were putting out was bad, they were unfortunately thought of as a 50s act even though they had moved on from that genre. They also didn’t have anyone (i.e., a strong manager) who was out there pushing their songs for them. They were relegated to playing some really second rate venues and the state fair circuit. It’s rather a testament to their tenacity and work ethic that they didn’t throw in the towel completely but they had bills to pay like the rest of us.
In America, yes. I believe "The Price of Love" was number 1 in Britain though. And it seems you are a fan so no need to tell you that the Everlys made a ton of great stuff between late '64 and '66 (and more beyond but I personally love their '65 sound).
No war issues there I guess.
Just like it looked when it aired…on tape. Great find!!
What a great cover! Thanks for posting!
The brothers were even more popular overseas, particularly in the UK and South Africa. They had several hits there that didn't make it over here, including 1963's excellent "The Girl Sang The Blues". As I travelled, I became intrigued by how some American acts were much bigger elsewhere on Earth. For example, Percy Sledge is an absolute legend in Southern Africa, ranked with Elvis, Cliff Richard and Elton John. And funny how so many songs by American artists flopped here, but topped charts elsewhere. Some examples include Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazlewood's "Sand", Dobie Gray's stunning cover of Elvis' "Loving Arms", Dolly Parton's "You Are", and Diana Ross' "Surrender".
No Kinescope here. Love the original videotape
Love this! Takes me back to being 10 years old in front of the TV dancing along with the WTAI kids! Thanks for the memory. 😊❤
Glad you enjoyed it 😀
Aaron i am equally glad you like to share with us , it always makes my day better. Also like to thank your help today. This has nothing to do with your show but did you know James Best ,Rosco P Coltrane is the Everly's cousin ?
Hi Greg, I’m glad you liked it 👍 And no, I did not know that. The Dukes of Hazzard was my favorite show when I was a kid. My friends and I played the Dukes on the playground, chasing each other around, and I was always Roscoe, lol. Thanks for that tidbit!
Yes aGreat show. My family was at a huge car show a few weeks ago. There was an original General that was made for the show but don’t know if it was used. The entire cast signed the glove box. My son offered him 85 thousand and he said nope and just smiled.
Couldn’t you just cry… they were all so beautiful!
They sure were
Always a good Saturday morning when Aaron and Gary post to YCDTi! Nice cha cha there by Jerilyn and Roger.
Hey Mr. Sanuscar if your out there in the air frequency , i'm wishing you and all a great Thanksgiving. Hope your doing well. Last day of bow season i got a huge 9 point that was full of back hair and a black face.. My boys having it mounted. Me i would have cut the rack off and thrown it under the steps with the other's lol and took a picture and called it good. Seriously Don stay safe and have fun always....
@@gregmoore7709 Hey there Mr. Moore! Hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving. All’s well here. You guys stay safe and warm up there. My best to all. Gobble Gobble. 🦃
I was a baby in the '80s, but lucky enough to see The Everly Brothers front for Simon and Garfunkel live around 2004. Both sounded exactly like they did in the '60s without dubbed recordings.
Roberta knocks me out!
The knee socks are way cool.
Big time
everly bros forever !!!!!
Phil was really into the rythm at the end, he was rocking it. I love this version where Phil interjects with his words.
they are lip syncing here
Nothing new? :(
I wish they'd bring this program back on where the action is my favorite action dancer was Jerry Lynn Stapleton and every time I see this I always play it on my cell phone so y'all get back to the old times in the 60s where we had good times and no drugs no killing and good videos so you weren't born in my time in the fifties but I tell you what I'm glad I was born in the 50s cuz they ain't no way I'd be glad to be born in 2023❤
Bullshit must’ve been something good u took
Thank you sir .,love the Everly brother's
You’re very welcome. 👍
I didn't know the Everlys did Love is Strange.great post.Great dancing from the Action kids too.😊😊😊
'65 in first grade and 6 years old 😊
Ha ha me too. I remember this show. I recall clearly Paul Revere and the Raiders on this show.
Nice to see the Everly Brothers do a classic '50s tune in the middle of the Beatles era. 😁😁😁😁😁
I bet those ACTION sweaters are hot to wear
WOO HOO!! Thanks for posting this Aron! I've always loved this version along with several of their other WB recordings like That'll Be The Day, That's Old Fashioned (I want a video of that one!), The Ferris Wheel, Gone Gone Gone, The Price Of Love, Bowling Green (tell me when to stop!)............and it's an HONOR for you to call me your "Don" to your Phil........in homage to both Don Everly AND Dancer Don!! Oh, by the way, I could watch Roberta Tennes ALL DAY, EVERY DAY!
I love it too Gary. Can’t go wrong with the Everly’s. And Roberta certainly didn’t hurt the show’s rating, lol.
Is it just imagination or do these pre-Dick Clark intro clips have particularly good recordings of the songs. To my ear, this song, the Herby Alpert songs, Keep On Dancing, Liar, Liar etc… all sound particularly crisp and clear and better than the mono 45’s of the day. Maybe Dick had some sound guys temporarily tweak the recordings or something…or maybe my imagination is running away with me. 🤔
@@YCDTI Well, let's try this again. Hopefully this post will show up! ha ha......Anyway, as for the recordings.....I'm not sure if they used tape or actual records but my guess the reason the audio is so good is that the audio went right to the soundboards to synch up with the video cameras and they likely had some hidden speakers near the performers for them to lip-synch to. Maybe in this clip the speakers were behind the spool that Roberta was on. Next time we meet up with Fang, we should ask him about this.
In 1965 I was 4 years old, wow. Great music during those times. I'm 63 in 2024.
I can agree that sometimes love is strange…but the decision to have Roberta dancing on the spool makes perfect sense to me.😆
Just a thank you for all the videos.
There's so much History in this song. It was originally done by Mickey & Sylvia and Sylvia would later co create Sugarhill Records that featured the very first rap song Rapper's Delight by The Sugarhill Gang. When the matadores were rejected to be the opening act for jackie wilson they were told to do a mickey & sylvia type of act. The matadors later became the miracles, and smokey robinson & ronnie white who co wrote "my girl" for the temptations and helped stevie wonder get into motown. in his book from 1987 smokey and ronnie white were pictured where they briefly recorded as Ron & Bill and the caption said "not the everly brothers".
Another surviving video tape of WTAI! It leaves hope that even more will be discovered in the future! Still a lot of show unaccounted for, either on tape or kinescope
Aaron wishing you and family and your Bandstand followers a safe and fantastic Thanksgiving..
It's great to see the action kids dancing❤❤❤o
Excellent! Bo Diddley actually recorded this song first but his wasn't released until the 2000's
The ship is the USS Kitty Hawk CVA-63
Excellent! How did you ID it?
From her history, looks like she’s headed to Vietnam in 7 days from the airing of this episode, Oct. 19, 1965.
@@YCDTI They were completing REFTRA, (Refresher Training) and pre- deployment work ups at the time. Also had done a Disney movie onboard earlier, as I recall. You can see the cat external drain line bulge at the side running forward to aft, along with the upright,( when not doing launches and recovery ops) antenna masts up on the forward flight deck. Constellation had returned from Yankee Station and was down in San Diego at North Island in stand down, if memory serves, and being a sister, would have the same configuration in 1965, but that's not her.
✨✨excellent✨✨
😆👍🎶🎶🎶🎶
fromJAPAN🙌
1:33 Roberta Tennes so pretty!
American kids were fickle. The Everly Brothers were still a great pair and in the USA they were yesterday's news. Too bad. They never stopped being great but nobody paid any attention.
Like their song, the kids were saying “That’s Old Fashioned”.
@@moorlock2003
I guess I was one of those kids. 11 in '65 and The Everly's were an act on the oldies channel. It was probably the radio stations more than the audience. If we would have heard songs like this we would have liked them!
You're right. They never stopped being great. The Brits still appreciated them during this time though.
Hey, guess i'll dance portside of a cruiser !
Thx! But, were we ever that young, pretty & kewl man, kewl🤟🏄♂️
Nice 😀👌🏼
Aaron - Is the TimesPastTelevision channel posting copies of what's on this channel or versions of AB you don't have.
Hi!
Andrew (@TimesPastTelevision) is posting AB episodes I have too. He has some full episodes up that I’ve posted before but that have been blocked for me. I haven’t seen him post anything, yet, that I don’t have.
We sure could dance back then even us white privileged males were rather good, but the girls were still better - Lesley and Roberta by herself (not that easy to do) were brilliant in this video. Anyone know who they were - Could be Bandstand Kids or even Micky Mouse Club but they didn't have mouse ears, or just winners of a competition which were popular in LA in the 60's?
Aaron wishing you and your loved ones a safe and Great Christmas and New Years also your bandstand family. Thax for the many smile's....
They're high as a kite here
Hello my grandpa was on an episode of American bandstand and ive never been able to find it do you think you can find it for me? Id really love to show my kids ❤️
Please give me more info and I'll see what I can find out. Was he a dancer? A performer? Do you have a date he was on? Do you know who the performers were that was on the show?
His name is Tommy lam he sung a song called speed limit it should be 1959 but I'm not sure on the rest
Who were the dancers on "WTAI"?
The Action Kids: Steve Ciro, Jerilyn Stapleton, Roger Minami, Lesley Evans, Mike Williams, Roberta Tennes, Pete Menafee, Jill Gordon, and Joy Ciro.
Thanx!
@@barbaral8973, Roberta 😍 I had a crush on her then and apparently still do now ❤
The Everly Brothers cover of Love Is Strange was painful to my ears. I can see why it flopped on the American because it was dreadful. However, the WTAI dancers were enjoyable to watch.
Someone should colorize this historic footage.
En ese año nací yooooooo
