It's touching to see how he enjoys his music and doesn't have just dollar signs in his eyes. I want to beam me into the screen and give this man a hug.
To have seen Gene live will always stay in my memory banks. He was superb, my one regret was not seeing Eddie Cochran. but thanks to all those people who post these great clips,we can turn the clock back.
I love how he does a farmer blow (snot rocket) on the pianoist at the beginning of the video after saying what song he is going to sing and I miss Gene as well and we lost him at a young age and I am 40 year's young myself but I know good music

@@denisvanouk5768 Merci & Happy New Year to you from Portland, Oregon USA ********** Sweet Gene was "The Epitome of Rock'n'Roll" * The voice of an angel when he sang his beautiful ballads *** No matter what he sang he made it his own *** I knew him personally for 14 years and knew how very special he was *** I knew the entertainer/ performer who rocked my world and I knew the man behind the scenes who was so endearing to me *** Loved him deeply and miss him everyday *** Such sweet treasured memories of the dearest man I ever knew *** Memories that time cannot ease * He was a blessing in my life *** In my eyes the "True King" * A Legend that will live on for eternity *** Vincent Eugene Craddock was Magnificent *** Simply Unforgettable !!

these old videos make me wanna travel in time to live with them, so interesting period and so great music, man i get goosebumps and dream myself to better times
I've loved Gene singing this song for years, and I've only just discovered it on youtube tonight. How wonderful to finally see the great man performing. What a treat, I think you're ACE Gene!
Check out the guitar player. Hah! I'm the first one to note that he's playing a then brand new customized '59 Fender Jazzmaster! Pretty guitar 'cause he's got a metal reflecting pickguard (ain't that badass cool but he's playing with Gene Vincent, right? Huh?). Jazzmasters rule!
Gene had a gift for musical fusion that the world wasn't really ready for this early. The Beatles easily crossed from R&B, to Country, to Olde Tyme Music Hall - but nobody was really doing that as early as 1959. Gene was only about five years ahead of his time - but he still never got the credit he deserved.
This is one of my all time favourite numbers that I used to perform with the Norwich group "The Offbeats". Pete Miller (Big Boy Pete} played a wonderful guitar solo. Ah! Memories.
I so agree with Eugene .. if yu listen to the original recording its so wistful .Harold Arlen would have said "Hey Judy .... THATS how it should be sung"
Gene Vincent had a bad leg from a car accident, they thought they would have to remove the leg, but he ended up wearing a steel brace for the rest of his life.

Ave got this on capital records can help listening to him sing brilliant
I want to go back to 1959, I would be 6 years old, I never heard this version, but if I did, I would have been a HUGE, GENE VINCENT Fan!
Gene Vincent has a beautiful emoional voice. This is an amazing version of 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow" as only he can
God bless you gene Vincent and your friend Eddie Cochran thankyou for your great music 🎼
Thanks Gene, you tortured genius. Happy 76th birthday. Feb 11
omg Gene's ballads are just amazing
"if I get through this I will be a better man", the last words of the greatest singer and performer who sang from his heart
HBD to the Immortal Gene Vincent...
Gene's version is definitely the best!
To have seen Gene live will always stay in my memory banks. He was superb, my one regret was not seeing Eddie Cochran. but thanks to all those people who post these great clips,we can turn the clock back.
Brilliantly unique song.......a gem that will be timeless forever. He was one of the best.
i love his voice---what a talent!
His best song, for me. What feeling.
Victor yes he puts all his heart and tenderness into it , very good result yes il y met tout son coeur et sa tendresse , très bon résultat
A true giant and sadly one that remains very much underated..
Sweet Gene Took my breath away *** My dream come true *** Miss him so much *** He was the very best *** Have such sweet memories of Gene !
We all miss him Carole..We all see him in Heaven :-)

Gene Vincent so underated what a Rock n Roll Legend a one of a kind who Knew his music 🎵🎼R.I.P Gene Vincent 🎙️🎶📻 from a Teddy Boy 🎶

My Dedicated Song To My Ma. RIP. xxx
Cool! Never heard this. Right up there with his version of Unchained Melody. He could have made a killer lp of standards!
This is one of my all time favourite numbers that I used to perform with the Norwich group "The Offbeats". Pete Miller (Big Boy Pete} played a wonderful guitar solo. Ah! Memories.
Sweet Gene Vincent

Sweet Gene Vincent,I still miss you.

Wow!!!
kory wid p
Gene Vincent had a talented voice for fast moving Rock and Roll songs, as well as for Rock and Roll ballads.
On arecent program narated by Roger Daltrey he made reference to Judy Garland . It was her favourite rendition of this tune
Eccentric version ... wasn't expecting that ..
That's masterpiece. Really it is.
just magical,always brings a tear,god bless gene
Gene's upper register here's even more mellifluous and lyrical than the great Elvis Presley's!
absolutely brilliant !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everybody wanted to look like him in 50s
Sweet Gene Vincent..what a cool guy..Sadly missed..
le must du rockabilly ! bon anniv mr vincent ...
Beautiful! Wow...
Hermosa rola bien por gene Vincent en pas descance.

Gene Vincent had a bad leg from a car accident, they thought they would have to remove the leg, but he ended up wearing a steel brace for the rest of his life.
Accident de voiture, pour sa jambe ? Ou accident de moto 🏍️ ?
