This week, we’ll point the LOUIE spotlight at Jimmy and the Riddles, who are known as an “Upbeat Reggae Dub Ska Party Band!” They are from a place known as ‘Folkestone.’ I don’t think I’ve been there, but my spies tell me that this is a port town on the English Channel, in Kent, […] For this week’s LOUIE, I’m sharing a performance by Tom Bishop who performs LOUIE LOUIE to honor his late grandparents, Louie and Louise Poltevecque! His YouTube page provides more details: Tom Bishop, Louie Louie, Kingsmen. Performed live by Tom Bishop at Fairmont Hot Springs, Montana, September, 2016.

Apparently, they’ve been doing some extensive touring all over Europe, and they’ve already played the “Viva Las Vegas” event last year. The lead vocalist / ringleader of this group, Sandy West, has a real distinctive voice, and i’m […] We’re a bit late in reporting this, we wanted to acknowledge the passing of Bobby Lloyd Hicks, who died on February 19, 2017.

Wedged between “Abilene” and “Thirty Dollar Room,” the band […] Are you ready for a world premiere of a very special LOUIE LOUIE performance? Today, I’m proud to unveil a video performance by The Pre-Minstrel Sisters. This was a video that was shot over 20 years, but never fully edited until recently. This was something created specifically for the LOUIE project. My friend […] This week, after an unexpected break, we’re proud to unleash a fresh new LOUIE LOUIE, captured live just a few days ago at the 2017 San Jose Jazz Festival. The band is Hot Kugel, featuring our friends Suska Varda and Mordecai, and this little performance took place on August 12, 2017 on the […] UPDATED RE-POST of an article originally shared on Friday, August 4th: Here’s a little blast from the past…. Many years ago, back during the early stages of the LOUIE documentary project, myself and my LOUIE co-producer pal Jesse Block captured some video footage of the 1989 LOUIE LOUIE Parade produced and promoted by the […] Here’s a special LOUIE for a certain age group… AARP: A Parody of “Louie Louie” for Seniors Citizens. A song and rap about joining AARP inspired by the Kingsmen’s “Louie Louie”. The performers call themselves “The Senior Moments“. https://youtu.be/Jg5WFONo9xA […] I stumbled over an extremely rare archival recording by The Replacements doing THE SONG live in Chicago during their semi-recent reunion tour in 2015. It’s definitely NOT a soundboard recording, and it’s not even 20 seconds long… but hey, it’s f-in’ LOUIE LOUIE by the Replacements!! A rarity? I’d say so…. As we […] |
