I showed my wife this video. She said Rick is more handsome at 45 than he was when he was 20!! I'm 69 and I remember VIVIDLY the day of December 31, 1985 when he died in that tragic aviation incident. He was very talented and loved by many. May he RIP.
I seen him at Tulsa State Fair and he was dressed exactly the same! It was 1983 I think. I was 16 and fought my way to the front of the stage! I knew every word to every song! I'm still devastated. 😢
As I did as well, FA. Mid-70's, Omaha, Pershing Auditorium, I got past security, climbed up and peered over the wooden fence. There he was with his manager. We spent 10 minutes talking till the intro music started up..."Rick, let's go, it's time. "Gotta go. Thank you, Dale."
I'm 66 and l first heard "Poor little fool" on my little transistor radio when l was 12, in 1969 and it was released in 1958 so he must have been very young, around 18 according to my math, makes sense?
I was maybe 8 when I got my first Rock N Roll record. It was Poor Little Fool and I never looked back ! Thanks Rick. (And James Burton, guitar and Joe Osborn bass )
oh my my. he was wonderful. I love him... his picture hangs on my wall in bedroom. I miss him and his lovely voice and his great songs. rip... thanks for sharing this great video.
This was the band that died with him on that DC-3 up in Avery, Texas area. I have been to the sight......that was a fateful New Years Eve. I will never forget it....part of my youth died when he did......Miss you EHN....rip. RR
Saw him at the Tulsa Fair 1985, in Oct before he was killed. I threw a rose up on the stage & it landed just perfectly on his guitar & stayed there for the remainder of his song. Such beautiful music from a beautiful man.
I know. Bless David. He really loved his brother. I grew up on this family. Rick was still going strong all those yrs later. 20 odd yrs after he did this song he still had it was great.
I had the pleasure of attending a Rick Nelson concert back in 1978 at the DB'S Club in the Hyatt Regency in Dearborn Michigan and it was a dream come true to listen to his music live? Having grown up watching Ozzie and Harriet and following Ricky Nelson as a child and loving all his music what true classic that was, R.I.P Rickey Nelson!
Being 66, I grew up with Rick & his music. Truly one of the greats in Rock & Roll. He stayed true to himself and his music. British invasion, disco, punk, heavy metal... you still could depend on Rick for his outstanding music: classic Rock! I'm not sure if its on you tube, but Ozzie (his dad) produced the very first music video: Rick doing Traveling Man, years before videos became common place! Nothing brings a smile to my face like a Rick Nelson song - love ya Rick, always will!
I just want to say Rick's birthday will be mother's day as we remember him let us not forget his band members Bobby Neal was a very great guitarist Rick Enfield was a great drummer and the others of the band. I miss them as much as Rick Nelson RIP to all of them.
One of the most adoring memories of my mum & step father is their love of music..this is how I came to appreciate Ricky Nelson's talent and songs and all legendary singers of the 50s & 60s. Thanks for sharing.
Saw him in Austin at Liberty Lunch many years ago. My biggest impression is that he was musician with a lot of integrity, fame, etc; aside. I was glad I went to see Ricky.

Rick Nelson was a talented and underrated artist. He reived allot of television exposure, but Rick was talented too. You don't sell 30,000,000 records on hype alone.
What a beautiful and handsome actor and great singer! He is my Superstar! Love him so! But such an idol is gone! RIP!❤❤🙏 I will love that gorgeous boy and his songs forever!🤩🤩❤
The man who inspired me to play a guitar & want to sing his beautiful songs when I was 10. Thank you Ricky & Happy Birthday (5/8/2022). At 70, I'm still singing your songs celebrating alongside you with a warmth & a sigh in my heart. Rest in Peace & Love 🎂
This has been and always will be my LIFE-THEME SONG! I have been to a lot of places but have many more to go! Ricky is one of my favorite all-time artists! Keep rock'n Ricky! Good channel, John!
ARE YOU DREAMING YES ELVIS WOULD COME CLOSE TO RICK NELSONS LOOKS ELVIS WAS THE MOST GORGEOUS MAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD ON THE PLANET YOU ARE SO WRONG ABOUT THAT THEN YOU MUST DONT LIKE ELVIS THAT MUCH CAUSE I LOVE ELVIS SO MUCH HE IS MY FAVORITE SINGER AND HE IS THE BEST SINGER IN THE WHOLE WORLD I LOVE RICK NELSON TO BUT ELVIS IS MY FAVORITE THOUGH
❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉 musica lindíssima boa gosto Rick Nelson cantor faz muito sucesso até hoje faz muito sucesso até hoje faz muito sucesso até hoje faz muito sucesso até hoje faz muito sucesso até hoje faz muito
Wow, some of the young artists with horrible clothes and unflattering haircuts could take a lesson from a smooth classy act like Ricky Nelson. What style, and I always loved this song. Thank you for sharing.
God bless you Ricky! You left us all quite a legacy, to enjoy your beautiful music. It is hard to watch these great videos and know that his band lost their lives too. RIP Ricky and the Stone Canyon Band.
I was never a fan of Elvis. But Ricky Nelson, and the Everly Brothers were the ones I liked so much when I was a kid. They were so handsome and wonderfully talented. We don't have talent like theirs around any more.
I was walking around an Auto show in the Oakland Coliseum in the late 70's and in the back of the arena a small band was playing as the people were looking at the cars. Hardly anyone stopped to watch Rickey Nelson and his band; I was amazed to see who was playing, stopped for a few minutes and went back to looking at cars. To me, he was like a neighborhood kid next door. RIP Rick, you are missed.
Ricky Nelson was hot till the day he died! I remember my Dad took us as kids to see him in concert in Toronto and he died shortly after. He had the bluest eyes ever!!
At the age of 11 years old I think that I wore out the jukebox copy of that song at Napa Valley Ranch Club. I was just starting to learn guitar then....Rick was a major influence along with James Burton, Jimmy Dodd, and others.
I'm 52 years old I grew up listening to rick from my brother's and sister who's quite a bit older than me. But Rick always had a great band and he always was clean cut and 85 percent of his songs were great.
That is cool. How much his music had an impact on you He would have been the same age of my father if was alive today. I was 13 when he was killed and I remembered how sad my parents were to hear it and I must say he was a talented and very handsome man. I am glad to see his music is liked by other generations such as mine. I am 39 years old and I enjoy many legendary song of that era and this is one of my favorites
Lordy I have loved Ricky Nelson my entire life. Wherever he is, hope he's resting in peace. I am olde now & still miss him madly. He was my first love & I spent many a night yearning for his beautiful soothing voice & wildly mesmerizing turquoise eyes. Love love love love love love love love
Rick Nelson, actor and musician, for a lifetime an honest unaffected style, consumate good taste, and musical artistic integrity untill his dying day. A man as strong as his work.
I have read an articles he didn’t like doing the older stuff, but he sounds so dang good in his 40s doing this song. Gave his voice a chance to mature.
Nice video. It is amazing how the audio is so much better in the 1961 version. Better stuff back then and better engineers. A good period for songs also.
One of the GREATS!!

Yes my friend, you are not alone in your love for our Rickie Nelson as I still refer to him 65 years later!
I seen him at Tulsa State Fair and he was dressed exactly the same! It was 1983 I think. I was 16 and fought my way to the front of the stage! I knew every word to every song! I'm still devastated. 😢
The only singer in my opinion that is right under Elvis Presley.
*1985 to 2025* - who is still watching 40 years later.
Its been 30 years since Rick Nelson's plane went down. RIP You will be never be forgotten
Emo ele vou amar ele estará comigo no meu coração
Never - great artist / great person ❤❤❤
What a voice we'll done miss you ❤
Great intertanter miss you Rickie
Met the man in person, he was truely humble and good guy!
RIP

ITS SO SAD RICKY DIED YOUNG 😢😢...... RIP MAN
He maybe gone but his music is there 🏅
@@roypruysvdhoeven1855Yes, really......very very...sad 😢😢......
God bless Mr.Ricky Nelson RIP......and comfort his family members and friends!!......
Elvis and Rick both were beautiful instead de and out.. both equally handsome and gifted by God . Miss them both. When men looked like men…
So under appreciated. Rickey was smooth cool.
Well-stated.

Grew up listening to Ricks music and I still enjoy it today at 67 years young.
Y yo con Elvis ,desde el año 60.

One of early rock n roll's great teen idols, forever young.
We saw Rick 3 weeks before he passed. So sad. I will always love him.
One of the greats of rock and roll !
Extremely handsome Ricky Nelson with his superb voice!
One of my favorite songs in 1961! Love it!
At 71, I miss him more and more! Hard to imagine after his glamour in life what a truly humble good person he was!
I was maybe 8 when I got my first Rock N Roll record. It was Poor Little Fool and I never looked back ! Thanks Rick. (And James Burton, guitar and Joe Osborn bass )
THE MOST HANDSOME MAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD AND THE BEST SINGER EVER..
Joan Sharp you got that right
I THINK RICK NELSON WAS THE SECOND MOST HANSOME MAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD FIRST IS ELVIS ELVIS IS THE MOST HANDSOME MAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD
they will never be another ricky nelson
Agree.
@@barbarawilson2184 amen to thst.
Bei der Musik denkt man gerne an die Früheren Zeiten zurück.Es waren viel mehr Gefühle zu spüren.
One of the greats RIP Rick😎
oh my my. he was wonderful. I love him... his picture hangs on my wall in bedroom. I miss him and his lovely voice and his great songs. rip... thanks for sharing this great video.
awesome performer, truly a star and a gentleman, so sad we lost him too soon in a plane crash, awful tragedy
Loved ricky nelson
I used to sing in a band, this song is one of the hardest to sing, great job.

It's hard to believe this December makes 35 years since we lost the talent of Ricky Nelson

Having grown up watching Ozzie and Harriet and following Ricky Nelson as a child and loving all his music what true classic that was, R.I.P Rickey Nelson!
This guy is the most genuine sincere item.
He was cool, talented, handsome and from what I've read, a nice guy. Wish he was still around.
Broke my heart the day he died.. and how... Love his music.. the tv show... Gone but not forgotten.

Great singer and one of the greatest singer I liked his music growing up with him RIP we miss you
always like listening to Rick Nelson tunes, great talent and certainly missed by my generation.

"He was always a Super Star, to me. Few have it, but he did!"
Rick was my idol since 1958. And everyone's teen idol in many years to come.
Beautiful man
Great person from New Jersey.
RIP Ricky
one of the best male vocalists ever 👍🎶🎸
I saw Rick Nelson at a dinner theater in Rochester, NY. He was great!!! RIP!!!
Rick Nelson was a talented and underrated artist. He reived allot of television exposure, but Rick was talented too. You don't sell 30,000,000 records on hype alone.
+john meyer
Why not? Madonna did.
Hey John Meyer. How is it that you call Ricky 'underrated' after he sold 30 million record?
what a doll after all this dreamy autralian girl
Philip Shearman, Cause the Beatles sold 1,000,000,000 and so did elvis
Very true, the Beatles, Elvis, Johnny cash, Madonna, all of them sold far more than ricky, and Ricky is just as good as all of them
Thanks for sharing one of his last great performances. RIP Rick.
One of the best of all times
What a beautiful and handsome actor and great singer! He is my Superstar! Love him so! But such an idol is gone! RIP!❤❤🙏 I will love that gorgeous boy and his songs forever!🤩🤩❤

Thank you so very much for posting these Ricky Nelson songs ...
Salve, : È affascinante ascoltare il teenager Ricky Nelson anni 60’s, nel più maturo Cantante anni 80’s.- Aldo da Verona.-
He was Elvis handsome and had a good voice, but Rick Nelson was cool. He played with a lot of confidence and was quietly charming.
Elvis handsome? No. You're an idiot for even thinking that.
Na, he WAS elvis handsome minus-1 but that is it. Rick was the real deal and panties would come off
Elvis couldn’t come close to Ricky Nelson‘s looks.
ARE YOU DREAMING YES ELVIS WOULD COME CLOSE TO RICK NELSONS LOOKS ELVIS WAS THE MOST GORGEOUS MAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD ON THE PLANET YOU ARE SO WRONG ABOUT THAT THEN YOU MUST DONT LIKE ELVIS THAT MUCH CAUSE I LOVE ELVIS SO MUCH HE IS MY FAVORITE SINGER AND HE IS THE BEST SINGER IN THE WHOLE WORLD I LOVE RICK NELSON TO BUT ELVIS IS MY FAVORITE THOUGH

Wow, some of the young artists with horrible clothes and unflattering haircuts could take a lesson from a smooth classy act like Ricky Nelson. What style, and I always loved this song. Thank you for sharing.
Gone to soon...am from kenya.. my mum played his songs every morning n i loved them at a very yong age in 1971
God bless you Ricky! You left us all quite a legacy, to enjoy your beautiful music. It is hard to watch these great videos and know that his band lost their lives too. RIP Ricky and the Stone Canyon Band.
Love this song, one of my favorites
That lead player in the pink jacket is amazing…. I wonder if he is Scotty Moore?
No
@peterjakub5480 ....but those ARE the Jordanaires , that sang with Scotty and Elvis, performing with Ricky !!
I was never a fan of Elvis. But Ricky Nelson, and the Everly Brothers were the ones I liked so much when I was a kid. They were so handsome and wonderfully talented. We don't have talent like theirs around any more.

Always loved Rick's music can't believe its been 30 yrs
It’s great to see JamesBurton, too. Still rocking.
Fabulous!!
Thank you for this clip!. The only time I got to see Ricky was in October 1985, a few months before he died. It was certainly worth the wait!
I have read an articles he didn’t like doing the older stuff, but he sounds so dang good in his 40s doing this song. Gave his voice a chance to mature.
That's what the song "Garden Party" is about.
What a Legend will be remember forever almighty bless his Soul
