Shakin' All Over '65 - Johnny Kidd & the Pirates video free download

Changed the title because YT only shows part of it. This IS a remake of their own song, and therefore not the original. This track is called Shakin' All Over '65.

I put this up on purpose because it's less well known, and the original version can be found all over YouTube. I thought it would be nice to compare the versions. Sadly, I did make this clear before, but that didn't stop the complaints of 'this isn't the original, it sucks!' rolling in.

So thanks, non-readers. When you downvote the song you're not criticizing IT, you're just trying to bury this video in the search results.

This song inspired the "turn around" riff in the song "Back in Black".

I much prefer the '65 version,still have the record! Mick Green this time on lead guitar,very crisp sounding, minor chords make it sound interesting,also a keyboard fills it out a bit, just my opinion! Johnny taken too soon, also Mick Green has gone.

written by Johnny Kidd so maybe this 1960 version is the original as opposed to The Guess Who which was in 1965 - a year before Johnny Kidd died.

SHAKIN ALL OVER je jediným hitom č. 1 skupiny Johnny Kidd and The Pirates, ktorú tvorili Kidd vl.m. Frederick Heath nar. 23. decembra 1939 vo Willesden,Londýn spev, Alan Caddy nar 2. februara 1940 v Chelsea,Londýn solová gitara Brian Gregg basová gitara a Clem Cattini nar. 28. augusta 1937 v Stoke Newington,Londýn bicie. Pieseň zložil Heath spoločne s Gusom Robinsonom za desať minút pred jej samotným nahrávaním.Inšpiroval ho slangový výraz,ktorý si chlapci hovorili pri pohľade na krásne dievča...že sa chvejú membrány.....Hudobní kritici Roy Carr a Tony Tyler označili pieseň za druhú britskú klasiku po Move It Cliffa Richarda. Ako 105. hit striedala sa na vrchole rebríčka s piesňou Please Dont Tease Cliffa Richarda 4. augusta 1960. Po týždni sa Richard vrátil na vrchol. Zaujímavosťou je,že na vrchole ju vystriedala 25. augusta 1960 skladba Apache skupiny Shadows, ktorá tam bola 5 týždňov. V piesni hral solo študiový hudobnik Joe Moretti nar. 10. mája 1938 v Glasgowe, ktorý nebol nikdy členom skupiny a ktorý zomrel v roku 2012 v Johanesburgu na rakovinu plúc. Ani k spevákovi nebol osud milostivý. Zomrel pri dopravnej nehode 7. oktobra 1966 ako 26 ročný na ceste pri Radcliffe neďaleko Manchestru so skupinou The New Pirates. V aute bol aj Nick Simper nar. 3. novembra 1945 v Norwood Green,Southall, ktorý utrpel zlomeninu nohy a rôzne iné vonkajšie rezné rany a neskôr bol pri založení skupiny Deep Purple. Cover verziu piesne nahrali v roku 1963 Swinging Blue Jeans, v roku 1965 Gues Who alebo v roku 1973 Suzi Quatro.

What makes this such an amazing recording is that these guys had damn near nothing for inspiration. Nobody had ever done anything like this song before. All they had were amps with a fairly lame tremolo effect. Fender came up with a reverb unit about the time of this recording, but it was very new and very few bands had reverb units. Today, artists have six decades of rock music to inspire them and more effects available to them than I can keep up with.

Clem Cattini on drums! Not as memorable as his drumming on Hurdy-Gurdy Man but still...

The original is iconic/ godlike / legendary etc, but this was an experiment just didn't work! The Normie Rowe version has keyboards in and rocks (PS Elp Smith if your mum says THIS IS THE ORIGINAL FOR CHRIST'S SAKES (and says it in upper case !) you need to decide whether you can ever trust anything she says again

And yet, it's his admission of skimming the description and his illiteracy that get the thumbs-ups in green. Go figure :) I have now subjected myself to Skitt's law.
