Here’s a litttle nugget from the 1980’s. Jack Ely<\/strong>, original vocalist for the Kingsmen<\/strong>‘s “LOUIE LOUIE,” did a little music video for his song “Highway Robbery.” <\/p>\n

Speaking of the Kingsmen<\/strong>, did you know there were more than one band that used this name? Here’s a little movie short from 1942 entitled “Chool Song” featuring music by another band known as the Kings Men<\/strong>. This particular “soundie” features dancing by Dean Collins<\/strong> and Jewel McGowan<\/strong>. You can see a nice little demonstration of the dance known as the “Lindy Hop<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Neither video features a version of LOUIE LOUIE, but since we’re talking about The Kingsmen<\/strong>, here’s another rare video clip I found on YouTube. This is an appearance by the Kingsmen<\/strong> on Hollywood A-Go-Go, featuring Lynn Easton<\/strong> singing a very short version LOUIE LOUIE, followed by “Money (That’s What I Want).”<\/p>\n

All three of this videos feature some really fun dancing!<\/p>\n
