Early 60's music aficionados

If you are an aficionado of early 60's music you need to add this to your YOUTUBE bookmarks.

October 1964 - T.A.M.I.

Chuck Berry
Gerry and the Pacemakers
The Miracles with (of course) the amazing Smokey Robinson
Marvin Gaye
Lesley Gore (Check out her stage presence at the ripe old age of 18)
Jan and Dean
The Beach Boys
Billy J. Kramer and The Dakotas
The Supremes with the wonderful Diana Ross
The Barbarians
The Unbelievable James Brown and The Famous Flames
The Rolling Stones

From what I can see, all the performances on this that I watched appear to be live which is not all that common for the time. There was a whole lotta lip synching going on back in those days.

This is 2 hours of some of the best groups of the time all together for one night at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium.

There is apparently a DVD release of this from 2010, it was never released on VHS. I am going to have to see if I can track down a DVD, this concert is pure gold as far as I am concerned.

I hope you enjoy it.
