    Lonnie was not just a great musician, but a great performer ! In this video he radiates the fun he has. Hebis PERFORMING the story of the song. See those expressions, the man’s an actor ! And those voice intonations, tremendous !! Not only does he look like Robin Williams, but if not in music, he could also have been a comedian. Just watch any interview and catch his demeanor and humor ! Gone too soon 😢 miss you Lonnie. Great that son Peter took after you !

      Possible because Lonnie is lip syncing and there's a whole lot of music and no band behind him. They were mighty confused.

    This is a mimed version of the recording made in 1978 with a clutch of Uk rock stars; Rory Gallagher, Ringo Starr, Elton John, Album called "Puttin on the Style" Produced by Adam Faith. Note that there is no band playing on this film.

      Not 100% sure but i think that it is Rory Gallagher, Lonnie re-recorded his early hits in late 1977 early 1978 with guests Rory Gallagher, Ringo Starr, Elton John, and Brian May, the Album is called Putting on the style.

    John Lennon worked to learn this song when Lonnie Donegan’s version came out in 1955. Tom Jones said Lonnie was one of the first to introduce rock and roll in the UK.

      What band? There is no band on stage. That's why they keep the cameras on Lonnie the entire time. It's not until around the 3:30 mark that you see an empty drum kit behind him. Sadly disappointing. As a Rory Gallagher fan, I was hoping to get a shot of him in the video. Just a lip sync stage performance.

    You can definitely tell that the 60s rock bands were super inspired by this guy the amount of really good electric guitar licks is quite impressive very much reminiscent of that late Yardbirds early led Zeppelin kind of sound
