Oct 11, 2008 - I remember the trailer for the film "When The Boys Meet The Girls" (starring Connie Francis), which was a re-make of a Mickey Rooney-Judy Garland film that itself was a re-make of an Ethel Merman stage musical that introduced her Gershwin-penned signature tune ("I Got Rhythm"), and it featured a bit of the Hermits performing this number from the film.

gymnastix Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - This sounds live, at least the vocals, perhaps with music tracks recorded at rehearsal, which was a common practice on these TV shows if the songs weren't completely lip-synched.

Oct 11, 2008 - I think I like Peter Noone's performances better in their heyday than the later shows he did where he's too much of a showboat for my taste.

gymnastix Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - I guess you haven't seen David Lynch's "Eraserhead" and/or "Blue Velvet," "Liquid Sky," or "Pink Flamingos" (or any of director John Waters' early films) then, if you think "Tommy" and "Rocky Horror" are the pinnacle of cinematic weirdness?And if you're talking strictly rock & roll films, how about "Performance" and "Man Who Fell To Earth," both directed by Nicholas Roeg?

Oct 11, 2008 - I want to both commend and thank you for uploading so many Hermits and Noone videos--you're a peach!I've got just one issue with this particular video--after I downloaded it, I noticed it has a lot of pixelation, and the audio is a bit on the soft side (but the latter is minor, because that's what volume controls are for).

Oct 11, 2008 - Another Tuber did upload a better quality video, aurally and visually, of this same performance, but cut the Phyllis Diller intro. So I 'm going to download both, I guess. I just thought if I let you know, you might be able to adjust your settings for future uploads, or perhaps even correct and re-upload this one.But overall, thanks for all your work in sharing these videos, Noonatic(s)!

Oct 11, 2008 - A funny inside story about the group. Years ago I ran the stage for them and was told to shut off the mic on Barry (the drummer)but to let Barry have a mic. Barry loved to sing, but did not have a good voice. This kept Barry and the rest of the group happy.

Mychaels Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Yes but did you know that Peter was 16 when the hermits started here??

Highland804 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - I met them once in the Hollywood Hills. They were very nice to me. 'Course I was just a dumb teenager. Peter was extra nice to me, after my friends (who did not get in to meet them) were pissed and bailed), let me use the phone to call my parents to come get me. Ah, memories.

sergeant2412 Says:

Oct 11, 2008 - Shame unkind remarks were made.To the bands credit, they played and sang on many of these early tv appearances while other bands were lip singing. The Hermits did themselves proud.
