Dear Lord, don't you get it? Everyone knew they couldn't even play their own instruments, the musicianship being done by professional session men. Moreover, their voices and vocal harmonies were manipulated in the studio. They couldn't play live and this video proves it. It's all miming.
The Wrecking Crew was a collective of American session musicians based in Los Angeles whose services were employed for a great number of studio recordings in the 1960s and 1970s, including hundreds of top 40 hits. The musicians were not publicly recognized at the time, but were viewed with reverence by industry insiders.
Most bands DID perform live, unless there was some special reason why they couldn’t. Need proof? Jim Morrison would never have been able to “accidentally” sing “girl, we couldn’t get much higher” LIVE otherwise, and not be asked back on the show as a result. Consider THAT! Having said all this, I do think this band was probably lip-syncing, given the obviously double-tracked vocals.
Me too.I have a scrapbook devoted to him in my attic. Tiger Beat, 16 Magazine... had his pinups all over my bedroom walls. He wasn't much of a singer or actor but he awakened my interest in boyz.
I remember buying this 45 record and while playing it my mom would come through our bedroom singing "I'm a Foo" "just a silly foo" because you can't hear the boys saying Fool with the L at the end. It was so funny!!!!
I never heard of these guys, but then again my parents made me go to bed at seven o'clock on Sunday nights back in 1964. Sometimes it wasn't night yet and I could hear my friends laughing and still playing outside.
I thought I was the only one! I'd be getting in bed, and outside, the kids of summer would be basking in the 1975 sunshine! It was the middle of nowhere in Pennsylvania....
@@3373-g8z As kids we hardly ever worried about being snatched by weirdos in those days. I used to do my paper route at 5 am when I was 12 years old. It's terrible that children can't enjoy the same sense of freedom we enjoyed back in those days.
In winter I get up at night And dress by yellow candle-light. In summer, quite the other way, I have to go to bed by day. I have to go to bed and see The birds still hopping on the tree, Or hear the grown-up people's feet Still going past me in the street.

Wow! That's almost the same as what happened to me! Oh I remember the neighbor kids out laughing when in bed! But I did get to see the Beatles on Ed Sullivan.

@@realitychick8903 How right you are & I couldn’t agree with you more!

At 2:15, you can hear the backing track end, and the band plays a 'tacked on' ending... although most people didn't notice- there's a dramatic difference in the tone of Dino's Hofner bass, vs. the Wrecking Crew's recorded backing track, with the heavily reverbed Joe Osborn's Fender Jazz Bass.

@@ThatGingerNate I've been building and repairing basses for going on 50 years. I've never heard a Hofner Beatle Bass sound like the bass on the recording of "I'm a Fool"
@@davidreichert9392 You are right about the Wrecking Crew playing in the studio but the real bands still had to play live when they played concerts. The Wrecking Crew would play on the recordings because they were seasoned veterans in the studio where time is money so it can't be wasted but that didn't necessarily mean the real bands wouldn't have eventually come up with something as good, but it would have taken longer and cost more. I clicked on this clip because usually the Ed Sullivan show would be live and I wanted to hear how they sounded live but in this case they used the studio version (you can tell because there's no keyboard on stage but you can hear keyboard from the original recording) and had them play along with everything turned down until the end where the fade out started, then the real band takes over for the ending. That seems like that would have been hard.
I so loved them & this song! I can remember playing this particular song countless times too. Each one of these really young boys were so talented at such a young age! I was shocked to hear how young they were when they performed here on the Ed Sullivan Show, too. I know I realized back then that they were young but just listening to Ed Sullivan just now it hit me how talented the three of them were & poised at such a young age. I was really young myself back then & so loved them! I still love this song, 🤣might I add. I want to add too that Ed Sullivan was such an extraordinary man, bringing these groups, vocalists & acts to a national audience, where some may have remained unknown, if he didn’t give many( all kinds of “acts”, too!!!) their big break on his tv show.

@@deborahbishop10 HOW LUCKY YOUR WERE Deborah to meet Billy! How exciting that must have been! I never realized how young they were until I just heard Ed Sullivan’s introduction, just now. I knew they were young but as a preteen myself it probably just didn’t register how young they were, being a kid myself.The three of them were so talented though & I read Billy went on to have further success in the music field. I too loved the Beach Boys & saw them multiple times through the yrs( first time was when I was 12 or 13 & all the original members were in this band & Glen Campbell was also playing in the band( backup), as well! I last saw them 3 or 4 yrs ago at the Big E( big New England state fair) here in West Spfld.., Ma. Only two of the original members played that night but I will always love The Beach Boys! Loved seeing them many times through the yrs but never got to see Dino, Desi & Billy! How lucky you were & then you got to meet Billy too! How great is that & thanks fir sharing your experience too! Take Care!🌺
@@karenstrycharz1499 I still have the record album of Dino, Desi and Billy, the name of the album is Memories Are Made of This. I'm A Fool, Not the Loving Kind and Memories Are Made of This are on the Album. There is also a book by Dorothy Hamill A Skating Life, it is about her skating career but also a great deal about her marriage to Dino. Desi and his wife were really into Ballet and had a school in Boulder. His wife taught a class with Harvey Hysell in New Orleans. My daughter and several of her friends took the class!! They loved it!! Whenever those little girls took the class, I did not know the teacher was Desi's wife! From what I understand Desi is not married so he is available!! This is also interesting, I am from Mississippi. Dino took his flying classes at the Columbus, Mississippi Air Base!! all of the pilots get certification in Columbus, Mississippi.
Hal Blaine and I lived in Marina del Rey in the 80's, and we became lasting friends. Incidentally, we were both there when Dennis Wilson died. Dennis and I talked about our women troubles while shaving and showering in "The Head"....The crazy thing is, Dennis had wolfman like hair and though we were "Dock/Boat Neighbors", I never knew who he was until the day he died. I held the the dock-gate open for the gurney that evening after divers found the body. That day burned into my memory. BTW...Hal was a great guy and we stayed in touch and remained friends until he passed. I lived in the best of times. Nothing like today.
You’re a lucky guy to have known Hal. He always was my idol…after I discovered that HE was the session drummer on all of those records I loved! I was a young drummer back then. I used to get pissed off when some group had a hit with a fabulous drum part. I used to say to myself “where the hell are all these groups finding all of these incredible drummers?” Then I found out it was all one guy: Hal Blaine!
@@bradentonguy50 I regret having drifted away from Hal after he moved to the desert...though we did talk on the phone and e-mail. Shortly before he died we spoke and we made a promise that we would "Have to get together soon." Ya gotta remember that yesterday is gone; and one day, tomorrow never comes.
@@richardschaefer4807 I seem to recall that his ex-wives wiped him out clean in his divorces. I think one of his exs even sold the gold records off of his walls. I also read that, at some point, he was so financially strapped that he worked as a security guard some place. I have this image of him sitting at a desk somewhere and hearing his records being played over the building’s PA. If he had tried to tell people that he played drums on all of those records they would call him crazy. Did he ever tell you about these things?
@@bradentonguy50I just read up on Hal Blaine. Amazing! He was on SO MANY hit records. The Wrecking Crew, the Wall of Sound. I had no idea. So many studio musicians were behind the hit records and albums. 😮
I can't beleive they were so young. I remember this song since 1965, even I forgot who played it, for some time I thought It was a song by the British group Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich.
@@lornedey4040 It's absolutely the Wrecking Crew and their voices are completely amplified with Professional singers augmenting most of their vocals - and of course top Studio musicians playing on their records. I'm not knocking them, they were young and around and sure they had famous parents which opened many doors - but, they never really produced a Hit single that I can recall - Desi Jr. of course was known for being a good drummer, but I can't tell you how many good drummers I've worked with through the year who never appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show - trust me, in Show Business, it's who you know ~
@@JohnnyGNV All of which explains why the boys are lip-synching and miming their playing! Who ya know is right! They actually auditioned for Frank Sinatra, who founded the Reprise label on which he and Dean Martin recorded. I'm guessing papa Dino arranged the audition! The trio released 4 albums and over a dozen singles on Reprise (distributed by Warner Bros. Records), until they signed with Columbia in 1969. For Reprise, DD&B hit #17 in '65 with "I'm a Fool" on the Billboard Top 100 chart, and #25 with "I'm Not the Lovin' Kind" later that year.
@@billmiller6274 Not much.....they actually probably sang this tune on the recording (Milli Vanilli didn't even do THAT) and that's about it.....by the way, a LOT of bands actually performed live on Ed Sullivan, but not these guys....
Excellent, Timeless and Magical. Yes, I DO think that The MONKEES were THAT GOOD. THE BEST EVER Made for TV Band of All Time that became a REAL Band and a GREAT ONE to say the least. Love 'em.❤❤❤❤
It's such a shame that none of the Beatles' performances on "The Ed Sullivan Show" made it to color. I believe the band's final appearance on the show in 1965 came one week before color.
@@alanarakelian5021 You are exactly right; they appeared on the last black and white episode (one week before this one), which I think was the first episode of the season. It was supposed to be shot in color, but I can't remember why it wasn't. Maybe they didn't have the color equipment quite ready yet.
@@TomElvisSmith The color shows were so much better in appearance than the black and white. Also, don't know if you can verify this or not, but the audio quality in the color episodes seemed to be way better than in the black and white. To me, it's a stark difference. When Ed Sullivan went to color, maybe he upgraded all of the audio equipment at the same time. Any thoughts?
@@alanarakelian5021 As time went on, the technology improved, both sound and picture quality. I do generally prefer the guests in the black and white episodes though, as I'm a bigger fan of the pre-British invasion music scene. Still, some of my favorites were on color shows too.
Such a tragic end for Dean Martin, Jr. I remember watching a bio on senior that reported that he never could quite overcome the depression of losing his son... so tragic.
When 39 was old... This was actually right when mainstream physical fitness began. 10 years later would be the peak of American History. If you didn't get to experience the 70s, lemme tell ya, it was worth being old NOW!
Rest in peace Billy. Absolute legend!

My friend Jane and I were so in love with them. I saw The Beach Boys in Mississippi and I met Billy!!!! He is absolutely gorgeous!!!
@@deborahbishop10 HOW LUCKY YOUR WERE Deborah to meet Billy! How exciting that must have been! I never realized how young they were until I just heard Ed Sullivan’s introduction, just now. I knew they were young but as a preteen myself it probably just didn’t register how young they were, being a kid myself.The three of them were so talented though & I read Billy went on to have further success in the music field. I too loved the Beach Boys & saw them multiple times through the yrs( first time was when I was 12 or 13 & all the original members were in this band & Glen Campbell was also playing in the band( backup), as well! I last saw them 3 or 4 yrs ago at the Big E( big New England state fair) here in West Spfld.., Ma. Only two of the original members played that night but I will always love The Beach Boys! Loved seeing them many times through the yrs but never got to see Dino, Desi & Billy! How lucky you were & then you got to meet Billy too! How great is that & thanks fir sharing your experience too! Take Care!🌺
@@centoeberhardt1663 I miss them too Cento! Best memories...
@@karenstrycharz1499 I still have the record album of Dino, Desi and Billy, the name of the album is Memories Are Made of This. I'm A Fool, Not the Loving Kind and Memories Are Made of This are on the Album. There is also a book by Dorothy Hamill A Skating Life, it is about her skating career but also a great deal about her marriage to Dino. Desi and his wife were really into Ballet and had a school in Boulder. His wife taught a class with Harvey Hysell in New Orleans. My daughter and several of her friends took the class!! They loved it!! Whenever those little girls took the class, I did not know the teacher was Desi's wife! From what I understand Desi is not married so he is available!! This is also interesting, I am from Mississippi. Dino took his flying classes at the Columbus, Mississippi Air Base!! all of the pilots get certification in Columbus, Mississippi.
Wow! I remember this song and had really liked it! I had no idea that these three kids were the performers! Soooo young and very talented!
I still have one of their 45's
R.I.P. Billy Hinsche 1951-2021
Hal Blaine and I lived in Marina del Rey in the 80's, and we became lasting friends. Incidentally, we were both there when Dennis Wilson died. Dennis and I talked about our women troubles while shaving and showering in "The Head"....The crazy thing is, Dennis had wolfman like hair and though we were "Dock/Boat Neighbors", I never knew who he was until the day he died. I held the the dock-gate open for the gurney that evening after divers found the body. That day burned into my memory.
BTW...Hal was a great guy and we stayed in touch and remained friends until he passed. I lived in the best of times. Nothing like today.
You’re a lucky guy to have known Hal. He always was my idol…after I discovered that HE was the session drummer on all of those records I loved! I was a young drummer back then. I used to get pissed off when some group had a hit with a fabulous drum part. I used to say to myself “where the hell are all these groups finding all of these incredible drummers?” Then I found out it was all one guy: Hal Blaine!
@@bradentonguy50 I regret having drifted away from Hal after he moved to the desert...though we did talk on the phone and e-mail. Shortly before he died we spoke and we made a promise that we would "Have to get together soon." Ya gotta remember that yesterday is gone; and one day, tomorrow never comes.
@@richardschaefer4807 I seem to recall that his ex-wives wiped him out clean in his divorces. I think one of his exs even sold the gold records off of his walls. I also read that, at some point, he was so financially strapped that he worked as a security guard some place. I have this image of him sitting at a desk somewhere and hearing his records being played over the building’s PA. If he had tried to tell people that he played drums on all of those records they would call him crazy. Did he ever tell you about these things?
@@bradentonguy50 Yes; I was aware of these issues.
@@bradentonguy50I just read up on Hal Blaine. Amazing! He was on SO MANY hit records. The Wrecking Crew, the Wall of Sound. I had no idea. So many studio musicians were behind the hit records and albums. 😮
I can't beleive they were so young. I remember this song since 1965, even I forgot who played it, for some time I thought It was a song by the British group Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich.
It's doze "D's" everywhere.
Dave Dee etc. did the song "Bend It". Such a fun song, that was!
I had there album. I don't know how it got into my record collection
God, I loved these guys!! What a great video too!
Very talented kids
My friend and I sent their fan club a letter and never heard back! 😂
Actually pretty good! It's one of those Louie Louie songs!
Thank god they played live.
Carol Kaye and Hal Blaine sound great on this.....it sounds like every song from the 60's NOT by the Beatles......
Where would we be without the Wreaking Crew?
Nowadays bands with young kids sound pretty good, not so much back then; I figured this had to be members of the Wrecking Crew.
@@lornedey4040 It's absolutely the Wrecking Crew and their voices are completely amplified with Professional singers augmenting most of their vocals - and of course top Studio musicians playing on their records. I'm not knocking them, they were young and around and sure they had famous parents which opened many doors - but, they never really produced a Hit single that I can recall - Desi Jr. of course was known for being a good drummer, but I can't tell you how many good drummers I've worked with through the year who never appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show - trust me, in Show Business, it's who you know ~
@@JohnnyGNV All of which explains why the boys are lip-synching and miming their playing!
Who ya know is right! They actually auditioned for Frank Sinatra, who founded the Reprise label on which he and Dean Martin recorded. I'm guessing papa Dino arranged the audition!
The trio released 4 albums and over a dozen singles on Reprise (distributed by Warner Bros. Records), until they signed with Columbia in 1969.
For Reprise, DD&B hit #17 in '65 with "I'm a Fool" on the Billboard Top 100 chart, and #25 with "I'm Not the Lovin' Kind" later that year.
@@billmiller6274 Not much.....they actually probably sang this tune on the recording (Milli Vanilli didn't even do THAT) and that's about it.....by the way, a LOT of bands actually performed live on Ed Sullivan, but not these guys....
Like this song don't remember these never seen them on any rock and roll cd sooo very young !!!!!!
I had their album. I was 12.
Recorded at Television City Studios in Hollywood.
A groovy tune.
Love this
Excellent, Timeless and Magical. Yes, I DO think that The MONKEES were THAT GOOD. THE BEST EVER Made for TV Band of All Time that became a REAL Band and a GREAT ONE to say the least. Love 'em.❤❤❤❤
Lovely! 👌💖😘👏😍✨
Wow, they sound good.
From Ed's first regular color telecast. That's one reason he's dressed up in a tuxedo!
It's such a shame that none of the Beatles' performances on "The Ed Sullivan Show" made it to color. I believe the band's final appearance on the show in 1965 came one week before color.
@@alanarakelian5021 You are exactly right; they appeared on the last black and white episode (one week before this one), which I think was the first episode of the season. It was supposed to be shot in color, but I can't remember why it wasn't. Maybe they didn't have the color equipment quite ready yet.
@@TomElvisSmith The color shows were so much better in appearance than the black and white. Also, don't know if you can verify this or not, but the audio quality in the color episodes seemed to be way better than in the black and white. To me, it's a stark difference. When Ed Sullivan went to color, maybe he upgraded all of the audio equipment at the same time. Any thoughts?
@@alanarakelian5021 As time went on, the technology improved, both sound and picture quality. I do generally prefer the guests in the black and white episodes though, as I'm a bigger fan of the pre-British invasion music scene. Still, some of my favorites were on color shows too.
@@TomElvisSmith I wish they could blend both.
RIP Billy 😭😭
JUST LOVE THIS SONG AMAZING GREAT BAND 🎸🎸💖🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁💖💖🎹🎹💖
I watched a clip of the “Association” on Ed Sullivan….they were definitely live a couple times.
So cute 💜💜💜💜
Hi Sandra
Fred Britz was the engineer genius that made those voices shine..
The sixties pop music: The best of all times.
Such a tragic end for Dean Martin, Jr. I remember watching a bio on senior that reported that he never could quite overcome the depression of losing his son... so tragic.
Good stuff
Cherished
my 45! RIP Billy
The good old days of Rock and roll
Man i remember i was like 7 or 8 watching shindiq with my uncle mike who was 16 so he was super cool. My grand ma and grand dad also watched.
I miss that sound music had then so earthy and real 😊
When 39 was old...
This was actually right when mainstream physical fitness began. 10 years later would be the peak of American History. If you didn't get to experience the 70s, lemme tell ya, it was worth being old NOW!
It's amazing what a modicum of talent and monster connections can do.
Ed ❤❤🎉❤🎉love love songs
that sound was a whole new deal
sounds like a GOP version of Louie Louie
Nice tune
I never knew that he had a band then. They were very, very good! 🎉😅
