I was 3 ys old in 1967 and even today can still remember first hearing this on the radio and it became a favorite of myself and my late Mother -a wonderful 💎 from my childhood Auckland New Zealand 2024
When music was good
The Mono version of this song is magnificent. So much fuller than other versions I often hear. I love just about everything Spanky and Our Gang ever did, but this one will always be my favorite. Cheerful and bright. It just aparkles!
Love this song, it's so 60's. I grew up listening to this on the AM radio
Just makes me want to fire up the old '67 Pontiac GTO, put the top down, and go for a nice relaxing cruise in the country!!!
Great song from 1967!
You don't have to be from the 60's to dig this vibe.
Due to the Pandemic, I can't help but feel more Lazy than ever in hopes of better sleeping thru. 1 better...sleeping in a peaceful meadow of cushioning grass & flowers galore...something out of The Garden of Eden...curled up in spoons au naturalle with My Lover😏.
Spanky, if you manage to see this comment...
THANKS &
Tears of Elation😂.
How I feel.
Remember the first time I heard this song around mid-October, 1967 while being driven to a friends house after school (6th grade, H. Guy Childs, UT) to do a science project. Such a perky song; remember being ready to do schoolwork after listening to this song!
I’ve always felt this song was a welcome oasis to all the turmoil going on in 1967 - cites burning, the Vietnam War raging, etc.
This was a hit in '67.
Yes it was, great year filled with GREAT music!!
LOVE! This was mixed and mastered so well!
So many delightful layers to this song, along with Spanky's amazing voice.
Multi-track tape was reaching its zenith right at this time, letting the imaginations of engineers and producers run wild, as well demonstrated on this gem. We have Les Paul to thank for all that.
GREAT Sound! This song really takes me back. It really is ART and it sets a mood.
They don't make them like this any more. I was 10 when this came out. Love my 60's & 70's music! A little of the 80's.
I can't understand the logic of 1 person giving this a 'thumbs down'. A great, feel-good song like this. Spanky & Our Gang released so many of those.
Sing along with Spanky
Blue sky, Sunshine, what a day to take a walk in the park.
Ice cream, Day dream, till the sky becomes a blanket of stars.
What a day for pickin' daisies, and lots of red balloons.
And what a day for holdin' hands and bein' with you.
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away.
Lazy Day, Made for a stroll in the lane,
Baby, you and me (Baby you and me)
and the honey bee ('Neath a shady tree)
Lazy Day, Lazy Day, Lazy Day
'n' you 'n' me
Blue sky, Sunshine, flowers bloomin' children sayin' hello.
Row boats, bird notes, people smilin' ev'rywhere that they go.
What a day to be together, and what a sky of blue.
And what a day for thinkin' right out loud, I love you.
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away.
Lazy Day, Made for a stroll in the lane,
Baby, you and me (Baby you and me)
and the honey bee ('Neath a shady tree)
Lazy Day, Lazy Day, Lazy Day
'n' you 'n' me
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away
Lazy Day, Made for a strollin' the lane.
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away
Lazy Day, Made for a strollin' the lane.
Lazy Day, Just right for lovin' away
a brilliant classic.
Spanky McFarlane is alive and well and singin' the blues for her supper.
I remember riding in the back of a deuce and a quarter after a jump into Dole Pineapple's fields, while stationed at Kaneohe Bay in 1967, listening to this. Purposely been avoiding these, because the memories are so precious.
77 wabc was the best radio in New York. with Harry Harrison, Ron Lundy, Dan Ingram, Cousin Brucie. I remember when Dan Ingram would play hook on a feeling by blue swede and he would play just the uga ghuga 2 or 3 times and say the natives are restless. I always wanted to be a d.j. because of that. ( still do )
Leslie Schoenberg Whenever I got up early in the morning around sunrise, I could tune in WABC for awhile before it faded out..then I'd spin the dial to 1520, WKBW in Buffalo..at the time, I lived in Medina, NY...great music played on both stations, and Danny Neaverth moving our fannies in the morning! 😎
Awesome.
Hal Blaine holds the whole thing together on "Wrecking Crew" drums. God love him.
Thank u for this! 💖
I have always loved this song. Feel good song "for sure", and Spanky and Our Gang deliver this well. We need more songs like this. Songwriters, don't forget, the "power of the positive" works well! , Dan Damon (career musician & show producer)
A classic ! .. very uplifting
A good song and particularly good sound for a 45.
I never ever heard this great song in the Sixties. Apparently Spanky only charted in the US and Canada. They were so good!
The lead singer who's Spanky is Elaine McFarlane.
She is phenomenal. In the pantheon with Janis etc.
The first time I heard this song I thought it was the Mama's & Papa's. It was only a minor hit here in the U.K. This song conjures up images of long hot summers & happy times of long ago. Let's hope there is more to come. A truly wonderful song.
On this day in 1967 {December 17th} Spanky & Our Gang performed "Lazy Day" on the CBS-TV program 'The Ed Sullivan Show'...
Two months earlier on October 8th it entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; and on November 26th it peaked at #14 {for 1 week} and spent 11 weeks on the Top 100...
It was track number one of their 1967 album, "Spanky and Our Gang", and two other tracks from the album made the Top 100 {"Sunday Will Never Be The Same" at #9 and "Making Every Minute Count" at #31}...
R.I.P. Mr. Sullivan {1901 - 1974} and Elaine 'Spanky' McFarlane will celebrate her 72nd birthday this coming June 19th...
Omg 💖. Fantastic lyrics 👌👏🍀
You play the best music!
I was only 10 when this song first came out. I still love it 49 years later.
Its good stuff, Im, in the 60's
Love it. I got to hear it on the air waves.
How can you not smile when listening to this song?!
Love the mono mix
I love this song.xD
I often listen to this song on aftanoon
I always thought they said "What a Day for MAKING Babies" Hahahaha
dacat58 Thanks for the info. Close Harmony music surprisingly wasn't that popular in the UK in the sixties, but I loved it! Bands like The Association, The Turtles, Beach Boys, The Lettermen, The Sunshine Co. define the real meaning of what we call "Feelgood Music" another of my favourites was " Lazy Day" again only a minor hit in the UK, and now, some 45 or more years later I still love this music
This was my dad's favorite...thank you
There are many rock songs that I love. This one is near the top of the list.
Thanks for uploading this. I just sent this song to my girlfriend! A true love song.
Sounds like the sixties were a great time for music. Today has a few great songs but, most of it just sucks.
It sure does. It belongs in the incinerator!
And "talents" like Justin Bieber, Megan Trainor, and Post Malone are names I either don't recognize or don't care about.
@@armorybrunotjr.3204 "talents" are right!! Well maybe Bruno Mars...
Blue skies, sunshine, flowers blooming, children saying hello. Life was simple then.
Summer of Love 1967
And this song definitely takes me back to when I was just 10 years old.
What a day for thinking right out loud... I LOVE YOU !!
I'm having a Lazy Day myself hahaha 😂
I remember being 10 years old laying there overnight listening to songs like this one on my dad's radio because when he turns it on, he goes to sleep and leaves it on overnight.
Thanks for a great song. Your table looks alot like my 35 y/o JVC, and Denon Audio which I treasure and still use with my 4000 45's and 300 albums from 50 -84.
WABCRADIO77, I wanted to thank you for sharing all of the wonderful and cool Mono and Stereo 45's that you play on your channel. I truly enjoy each record and it brings back many good memories. Keep up the great work !
I believe the version without the greetings was the original. That is what I first remembered hearing on the air. The track on my copy of Spanky's Greatest Hits has the greetings.
MrTrashcan1 yes you are right! Two mono versions were available. The GH one was the one with the greetings.
Reminds me of my childhood...
I was ONLY ten or 11 years old when this came out. Precious memories, Thanks!
Good memories! About to start 7th grade...wow some good times in the 1960s...
i clicked on this a while back and have never looked back. spanky and our gang, no hits in the uk charts, but unbelievably good and again , mono vinyl sounding heaps better than low bytes-itunes low grade feed.
I agree with rob. Nobody really talks in person. 60s were better I think the last of family days and person to person outtings was the 80s. Now all you see is people sitting in same room all silent texting another or candy crushing. Sad. I noticed people csnt figure out why fiendships and relations aren't working.
And why it's a pleasure and joy that we were alive in an era where people said hello to one another. As for today, THEIR loss. Technology can be a downfall.....and it will be.
Thanks for putting this up Different times
I have the original single but it's the orange and yellow swirl Mercury record.
And BETTER times....
It's a little cheesy of me to comment again, especially after asking if Spanky was a babe
( she was, in my opinion ). I was 7 when this song was released. For some reason it always literally stopped me for a few seconds, whatever I was doing, when it came on the radio. It seems so timeless to me. I really love her voice!
forgot this song from back in the day....loved it..thanks!
Thanks for the song and the vid. Takes me back to the best of times for me..
Great Summer song, totally overlooked in UK
WABC RADIO77: A friend of mine has "Lazy Day" on a Spanky and Our Gang greatest hits L.P. and check this out--when they sing: "Blue sky sunshine flowers blooming children saying hello" THEN there are the voices of little children saying "Hello, hello, hello." I have heard this song many, many times (it's my favorite), and have it on a CD of Spanky and Our Gang's Greatest hits. The children talking at that point (above) NEVER appears. I love your channel and I am sure that you were the world's greatest DJ!!!! Thank you for sharing all these Great songs!!! I have a song on a cassette tape, from around '66 that starts out: "There lies the girl, the queen of the bubble, there lies the girl who doesn't want to get free.....Very psychedelic song and was recorded by a great friend of mind who passed away many years ago, Mr. John Swain was his name. He ran and owned "The Record Hole" here in Raleigh, N.C. and had recorded that song. I don't know the title of the song or who the group was that did it. VERY, VERY FAR OUT Song. Thank you for sharing all your great 45s!!!!!
+charlesrlassiter I have also heard the version with the kids.
+FroggyThe Gremlin I have the same LP. Does his album have a song called "Commercial"? It's about a garbage-man hating his job and his black friend/coworker gets him stoned on pot to make the job easier.
The version of Lazy Day you're talking about is on Spanky's Greatest Hits. It also has Commercial. 🎶Pot's too good to be just for the yoooouuunnng..🎶 It's on Amazon Prime Music. I don't know what other streaming site has the album. But I have Amazon Music and it's on there.
reminds me of 1968 when i was a kid
A pop gem.
How many of you out there remember the rear speaker with reverb ??
Amazingly clean vinyl!!
Pouring down, but this makes you feel sunshine
Well done! And a Technics Turntable ....even better!
Wow, I haven't heard this since about 1970 when I played it on my record player. :)
Masta ace kills this song, 'take a walk'
Thanks, that's been driving me nuts. I remember that same version, with some little kids shouting 'hello', and then laughing.
That was an alternate single version only played in certain regions
I wish I had this 45.
Good Stuff
You better believe it is happy.
Love 💖💖🌅🌅 it i love lazy wonderful😄😄😄
The album version of this song has some adlibs after the "...children saying hello" lyric. This song entered the Top40 on Saturday October 28, 1967...stayed in the Top40 for 9 weeks, peaking at #14. Mercury Records catalog number 72732.
man its sounds clear
You were a DJ on wabc. I remember listening to you and all the other Awesome on air personalitys. I remember when they had the strike and management ran ads saying who was outside at that hour. And I remember when the strike was over Cousin Bruce Marrow was the first one back. Because of you and the other Awesome DJ's I have always wanted to be one. God Bless. Keep up the Awesome work.
I've got that version from a mix tape I made in the early 90's but have NEVER heard it since...
Bubble Gum music on music radio WABC
Good recording to utube.
I also think i see my 1977 techniks zilver receiver on the right there.
Start playing this @ 0:36, after watching the closing credits from the 1985 made for tv movie "Amos"!
I'm glad someone knows the difference between the mono radio versions and the stereo LP versions (especially the Mercury/Philips releases). I hate the stereo LP "hello, hello" version. THANK YOU. (I haven't looked to see if you have the early Big Brother & The Holding Co "Down On Me" 45 on Mainstream with all the overdubs. I've been looking for that one, too.)
@longboarder771 Funny thing you should mention you thought this was by the Mama's & Papa's, when the Mama's & Papa's toured in the 1980's the lead female singer from this band Elaine "Spanky" McFarland joined them and sang the parts originaly sung by Cass Eliott.
this is on a yt video called "20 sunshine pop tunes" !
There is a version after the verse "Children saying hello", you'll hear the actual Hellos and How you doing?
That's the stereo version: ua-cam.com/video/7-7Ivglperg/v-deo.html
@@dannystrat Figures they do that.
In the original version I seem to remember sounds of children playing and talking at about the 1:48 mark. It `s not on this version.
Who was the WABC DJ who said roll your bod every 15 minutes in the summer for people at the Jersey Shore
The song actually says, "Children saying hello". How great is that?
And the downfall of that in recent times is 100% parents to blame.
A rather peculiar, But classic tune of 1967....
Ah, 60hz Hum, gotta love it! great wuality, gotta love vinyl, the single must be in MINT condition, no hiss or pop!
@hendrixzilla I actually own the Spank's greatest hits compact disc and I guess they swapped out the "clean" version from the vocal shouts that I guess appeared on the vinyl. Still looking, even now,but thanks!
There was a version of the song where, right after the lyric "children saying hello" the group shouts "hey! hi! how are you, etc." before Spanky goes back to the lyric. Haven't found that version of the song since. Any ideas?
This is such a great song. And the original vinyl yet! All the CD mixes are crap.
Is your station all talk radio now?
Drumphf's new theme song. He's always calling names. karma!!!
The HATE is strong in you.
Did you type your response whilst wearing your Pu$$y Hat ?
@@dzachary7818 Awwww, did she hurt your feelings? Have a cookie, that will make you feel better.🍪
0:37
saints row 1 anyone but overall the songs great
Why don't u put any song info in the description any more, such as the year it was released and how high it reached on the charts. (Which is what I'm wondering on this song.)
Is that lead singer a babe? She sounds like she definitely is...............I need to look her up right now
Somehow my 45 copy at 1:46 has a sound byte of people greeting each other.
Joe Pandolfi WHOA!
It's a re-issued 45, which has them. This original label played above, unfortunately does not.
nice! check out masta ace take a walk
what can i do to get this 45rpm off you let me know
