VIDEO THRWBCK: The Four Tops - It's the Same Old Song (Live on Shindig) (1965)
Continuing on our Motown kick from yesterday, today we bring you this awesome (yet grainy and kind of shoddy) footage of the almighty Four Tops performing "It's the Same Old Song" on cult '60s TV music program Shindig. Check out those moves!
VIDEO THRWBCK: The Supremes - The Happening (1967)
Why do I feel like someone dropped an acid tab in my Shirley Temple? Maybe it's because of the insane Pink Floyd trippy backdrop. Anyway, this was the 10th consecutive #1 for the Supremes, who were obviously the ultimate girl group force from the mid-'60s onwards. Enjoy!
DOWNLOAD: The Explorers Club - Do You Love Me
Haven't we all been having this recurring old man conversation, usually conducted around assorted bags of chips and one record or another, asking way too animatedly, "What went wrong with the world that nobody makes music like this anymore? Do people hate money? Are they scared of fans?" I think we have. Well at least The Explorers Club has. You can tell because their new record, Freedom Wind, is a Beach Boys record, right down to the fake ringwear on the photo collage cover. Even better, it's one of those 'very special guest' episodes where The Beach Boys meet The Ronettes, blending hazy summer harmony with big city sleigh bells and million dollar smiles. Sure it's crazy derivative, but so are you (you look so much like mom). So am I. We might as well just get into it, right? Listen to this free song from The Explorers Club.
