I'd love to find a copy without the blurred lines if anyone has one! I believe the blurred lines are an attempt to remove onscreen time codes and other watermarks.

@GloryGirl PunkRockKid I believe they meant this video. Not a completely different one.
I've seen the unblurred version a few times before. It's out there.
Rest Peacefully Mary Weiss. You are a part of our music history and also our hearts.
❤ RIP Mary Weiss 🌹🌹🌹 1 19 2024
Mary's passing has broke my heart. That voice of innocent soul, her adorable face and personality has had me under a spell for a long time. RIP Dear Mary, your voice lives on.
She didn't die at age 16 ya know!
@@hillarykildepstein3196 Are you insulting my heartfelt sentiment?
This is the first thing I've seen regarding Lloyd Thaxton IN MUCHO MUCHO MANY YEARS!!
God bless your memory and God rest your soul Mary Weiss❤❤❤😢😢😢
RIP Mary Weiss🌹1948-2024 🎙🎼🎸💐💗 Thanks for the memories 🙏🏼
hard to believe she was only 16 in this clip!
The Shanghai-Las were real fashion icons back in the mid 60’s! True! When they came along in 1964, they were the 1st girl group to wear PANTS on stage! Before them, all the others wore dresses. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
And already from 1964 they toured with James Brown (who - just like myself once - thought they were black...), The Iguanas (with a young Iggy Pop!) and The Sonics from Tacoma, WA (Kurt Cobain's favorite band, who made yet another comeback just before Covid put an end to allt that 4 years ago). And a young Billy Joel played the piano on their first hit, 'Remember (Walkin' in the Sand' in 1964, covered by Aerosmith in 1980 (on the 'A Night in the Ruts' LP, when they made a comeback after disco and punk killed the radio star 1975-79...).
When they signed with Mercury, they actually toured in 1967/68 with another band from that label, Vanilla Fudge (who became a world famous heavy prog rock band that I saw in Copenhagen around in 2001...), which also was the begiinning of the end, and they had no more US hits. They were still popular in UK, and toured in England with The Animals. They never saw any money though, and just disappeared in 1968 (Mary Ann was already hooked on alcohol and drugs), with their name unregistered why another band appeared as The Shangri-Las in 1989, even singing their old hits...
Youngest member and most often lead singer, beauty Mary Weiss, died on Friday, aged 75 (b. Dec. 28, 1948, thus being 11 months younger than the Ganser twins, who died in 1972 (Mary Anne, from drug abuse), and in 1996 (Marge/Margeruite, from breast cancer). Betty Weiss (also a redhead beauty who had a baby in 1964, and took a short break until 1965), is now the sole survivor, aged 77.
J, Sweden (and Wikipedia...)🤔
Mary Anne Ganser died in 1970.
That's right, that's why they looked so cool LOL RIP to all 3 of these beauties 💔💔💔🌻.
Mary is just adorable💖
Yesss
Yes, she.was cute and baby faced and shy here, almost like she leaned for a kiss from him right before the comercial break.
Absolutely!
Such a cheeky cute face she had💗
MARY WEISS (1948 - 2024)
REST IN HEAVENLY PEACE 🙏🏽✝️🕊️☮️🎶🎤🏍️"Leader of the Pack" and "Remember Walking in the Sand" 🎶
If "Shangri-la" is another word for "paradise", I pray sweet Mary, Mary Anne and Margie are there forever.💞
Sadly they are all gone now, except for Betty, I think.
RIP Mary Weiss.
RIP Mary Weiss, she was so lovely
Mary was badass.. And, the twins were something else. And, I was just a tiny, long haired baby boy when they ruled...
The twins died to soon🙏
Wow Lloyd Thaxton
Haven’t thought of him in ages
Watched him everyday
Loved his finger singers 😄
The Lloyd Thaxton Show was one of the best dance shows ever produced. I used to watch it everyday it was on. Channel 13, Los Angeles. He had so many great groups on his show. And he was very funny, entertaining. Great seeing this short with the Shangri-Las. Mary was so damn cute. Her voice! Great rendition of the Isley Bros. classic, Shout. RIP Mary, you were truly awesome!
Mary is so cute!🤗Love this group so much!
Lloyd Thaxton, WOW! That name brings back memories!
Nothing like the Shangs! Love all of their singles and still have them! These girls were the real thing off of the streets of NYC.
Wow, I never realised how good they were on stage!
And Mary'e voice is outstanding!
When I was a kid in the 60s I had a paper route and one of my customers looked exactly like Lloyd Thaxton.😂
Rest in Peace sweet Angel thank u for your Music
RIP Mary Weiss❤
RIP Mary 😢
If memory serves me, Lloyd was Hartford's local version of Dick Clark. We used to watch his teen dance show on the Hartford CBS affiliate.
The show originated in 1961 as a local program out of KCOP in Los Angeles. Three years later, it went into national syndication and received high ratings for the next eight years. Your Hartford station must have one of the many, many stations that picked it up.
I watched his show in Baltimore.
The Shangri-Las are the best girl group ever. They were so lucky to have sung the songs by Shadow (George) Morton, Jeff Barry, and Ellie Greenwitch.
All female Filipino/American rock group Fanny (!) from Sacramento was the first ever to get an album deal with a major label circa 1971, and had a couple of hits in the early 70s, and also appeared on German TV (available here on YT), where one of the two Filipino sisters (a gay beauty, almost 80 and a big girl now, whereas her sister dated Gene Simmons of Kiss in 1974...) wore brand new, German Birkenstock sandals (Birkenstock had just opened an American division, and was introduced on Wall Street in October 2023).
Miss Weiss in that "Wow, I really drive men crazy" phase and using it to devastating effect on Mr Thaxton.
I just love her voice!
These girls are great.
I would love to walk down with the street with these ladies.
me my friends and cousin use to sing this in our basement. What a flashback. We were teenagers in the 80s and 90s singing this and some other classics. This one was so much fun. Great footage here too but the strip across their faces is ruining it.
Give Him a Great Big Kiss & Shout by the Shangri-Las! 2 great records! 👍
Leader of the pack.
@@aaronweiser5421 Yes, another great hit. But I was referring to the songs they performed in this show.
Unforgettably brilliant I don't know where they came from or how they existed but they were amazing they'll never be forgotten
They were from Queens, NYC.
They were discovered by songwriter & producer George Morton, known as Shadow Morton because of the way he would shadow in & out of a room.
@donaldshaw2627.. check out Walking in the Sand...
3:22. Went to school together in Queens
FANTASTIC!
❤🌸🌷🌹 RIP Mary Weiss 🌺🌹🌹❤️ I loved you! 😢
My favorite group🧡🧡
Lloyd Thaxton....the luckest dude on earth.
Woah 57 years
Exactly a year and a day before I was born. Wow I missed out!
Lloyd Thaxton was on channel 13 in Los Angeles.
amazing there is a recording of this at all. good job
Rest in peace Mary Weiss, dear Miss Weiss
If anybody can find ANY video of them performimg Sophisticated Boom Boom, I'd pay big bucks for that.
CZcamsのおかげで、こんな貴重な映像見れて良かったです。中学生の頃から彼女達を知ってますが、映像見て、はじめて知ったこの娘達って感じです、10代の甲高い声が耳に刺さります❗最高です！
"Shout”のリードボーカル、実際は姉のエリザベスなんだけど、その姉がこのショーに出演できなかったので代わりにメアリーが口パクでやってるようですね。
soooooooooooooooooooo cool
I was in 2 grade when they sung this song.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THEM.
Brings back memories of 10th grade.
Mary Weiss' voice....
The brill building. 100s of hits
Love the choreography. Sweet 16s.
僕の耳をくすぐる、ペパーミントボイス最高です。ティーシャツ持ってます。

Good old kine-scope. Thanks for posting
WOW !!! :) brilliant.

Got any more clips like this one?
Would like to see more.
Lead vocalist, per song "Shout"- Betty (in spite of Mary later lip-synching the song on the Lloyd Thaxton show in February 1965 due to Betty's absence)
BLESS THEM ALL. THEY HAD A UNIQUE SOUND!!! SO CUTE.
used to watch his show after school in the mid 60s. i'll be 72 april 9th....thinking those girls are probably about 80 now.....life is a blink
Happy belated birthday. Unfortunately, I think the twins have passed away. But Mary Weiss, the main girl, is 73, and her sister is just a couple of years older.
@@Mer1912 thanks. i googled after i posted. i was too lazy before. used to watch the show regularly. not sure i saw this particular one and, if i did, think it was as creepy than as i do now.
@@brupic8968 Yeah the whole flirting bit was a little too much.
@@Mer1912 he looks a lot younger than he did when i was 14-15.
oops...just realized in my first response i typed 'than' instead of then. my editor seems to slip up more often these days.
Lloyd seems forgotten.. I knew bed his show! I remember this one...
Do you think they came up with these moves or did they have a choreographer?
Big influence on a lot of singers and bands. Very sorry concerning Mary....
Those blurry rectangles on the screen are ruining this video totally
I know, but sadly it's the only copy available anywhere :(
Don't forget to say thanks to the person that posted it for you to see, Stephanie.
You should have tried watching the TV we had back then.
Babe. It's a video from the 60s, get the fuck over it. You people complain about the most miniscule shit
Where did you find this?
It's Mary's vocals on "Shout."
Not this version... this is Elizabeth's (Betty's) take. They recorded it in their first year... late 63, early 64... but when you hear Mary do it live it's really close... a little less Alto... but very close.
These interviews were always so awkward and uncomfortable with these old guys either doing flirting skits with young girls or just asking dumb questions to guys. You could tell how annoyed the twins were at his "leader of the pack" comment.
Mary was hitting on the host really hard wtf are you talking about...
That’s what Richard Hobbs was watching after he had branded Sylvia’s stomach
Yep.he watched this show also after she died.
So sad that so many of them died due to drugs
Only one of the four. You make it sound worse than it is.
Shame they broke up when they did. There could have been many more beautiful songs!
The Mercury Records label promoted Janis Ian and Vanilla Fudge rather than the Shangri-La’s. Sales dropped. The teenagers felt that the label was withholding royalties from them so they quit.
Any money says none of these girls has a tattoo!
Too bad about the embedded time code placed right over there faces....kinda makes it unwatchable...I've had many videos like that that I've never posted.That sucks😮💨...great music thou👍
When I was a kid watching these tv show lip sync performances, I always wondered where the music was coming from …
How old was the lead singer when this was recorded?
Mary, in the video was 15 I think, but it is her sister Betty's voice, she was 17 I believe but took a hiatus from performing. RIP Mary.
She was 16, this is 1965.@@stephenhowell5611
Based on the posted date of the broadcast, Mary would have been less than two months past her 16th birthday. (December 28, 1948) But she was indeed 15 when they recorded that first album.
noticed everyone calling Mary Weiss pretty in the comments but me ima have to say the Gasner twins are very pretty:)
Good Greaser Chick band.
I believe there was a girl who joined this group at some point in the 60's named Betty. Does anyone know what her full name was? And does anyone know if that happened to be the same Betty who was part of "The Shangri-Las" in the 80's and 90's who did the Dick Fox shows? I know that wasn't actually the same group, but I do think one of the members was named Betty.
Betty Weiss was lead singer Mary Weiss's elder sister who sang lead vocal on one or two of their tracks and left the group early on...she briefly emerged frim seclusion in the early 90s when the Shangs tried to prevent an imposter group from using their name...
@@mikelewis1436 Oh OK. Thanks for the additional information. I believe the lead singer of the imposter group you mentioned was actually named Betty. Or at least that was the name she was using. (I have an autographed photo from them, and I believe the name she signed was "Betty".) That's why I was confused. I thought that perhaps it was the same Betty. I thought maybe the original Betty from the Shangri-Las had broken away and started her own version of the group.
Betty was Mary's older sister and they were originally a foursome. Betty got pregnant, very taboo in those days for single girls so she left the group but returned later on but unfortunately their heyday was past by that point. But there's some videos of the group as a foursome again.
You've already been put straight about Betty Weiss. I'd just like to say that I had the misfortune of seeing the bogus Shangri-las in the time frame you mentioned. The tickets to the show were provided to me free, otherwise I never would have gone. I knew they were phony, but went out of morbid curiosity.
The lead singer had long blonde hair...longer than Mary's, in fact, but she was obviously going for that look. One of the other two "Shangri-las" was - wait for it - her mother! In the course of their show, they did exactly TWO Shangri-las songs; "Remember" and "Pack," as you might expect. Everything else was some other artist's song. I mean, really??
They sat in the lobby signing autographs after the show for the clueless patrons who came up and asked for them. I had to really restrain myself from approaching them and outing them. But I figured that wouldn't make me very popular with anyone present.
I assume “Betty” in the imposter group was pretending her name was “Betty.” The real group sued the creator of the fake group.
Did he ever said iam sorry for hugging Mary Weiss
The hottest girl group of all time
Not one of the greatest voices in rock and roll but Mary Weiss was also incredibly hot
It makes me laugh when people say the spice girls are the best girl group ever when you have real talent and much better vocals and one of the best girl groups ever
RIP Mary
were they in the Witness Protection Program?
????
😆
Yeah, that's why they appeared on a popular TV show.
She was 16 here.. and Lloyd Thaxton was all over her... Gross that that was ok back then....
She was all over him first.
Acting like you wouldn’t tap that
It looked like Mary was into him too.
She’s 17 Lloyd…
Tell him that I love him, tell him that I care, he can wear my underwear
4:07 Jimmy Saville moment? 🙃
Maybe it's the picture distortion but her hands look huge and masculine to me.😅
Creep making his moves on a 16 year old girl in 1964.
Not even Don Draper would do that.
No, but Harry or Pete would.
Lloyd would never get away with this sexual harassment in 2022.
Lol facts, goes to show how much things change
Where was this sexual harassment? It is called flirting and she semed flattered.
She touched him several times before that. Selective outrage is cringe.
@@spudbencer7179 Mary was only 16 at that time 😮.she was born December 28,1948.
@@Col92519 and people from that generation usually died in their 50s or 60s :O
Loyde Thaxton Hop, not show, who ever posted this is not from this time in music history.
These young ladies seemed tough for the sixties
They were proper kick-ass gals from the hood, Mary was known to take a gun on tour should anyone need reminding too, RIP Mary (who passed yesterday) reunited with Margie and Mary Anne
They must already be singing up a storm in their youthful eternity.@@npc3po301
Please get rid of the blurry lines 🙏
I'd love to, but this is the only copy in circulation, the lines are probably removal of time-codes. I'd love to provide a clean copy if I had it!
@@classicmusicofyesteryear6709 ty for even uploading it
@Classic Music of Yesteryear I seen it once on CZcams at some point. So it does exist.
This part is funny: Is he a good dancer? What do you mean is he a good dancer? Well, how does he dance? Typical New York and with the accents.
Yup, classic Queens dialect.
Sounding Black--of course.
His comment about not confusing her and then grabbing her to kiss her would have gotten his ass thrown off the air. If I were her father his face would have required a lot of makeup the next day. She was a 16 year old street kid. Image him off the air?
She grabbed him and start touching him not the other away around....how many braincells do you have?
So what
I physically winced when he grabbed Mary like that… good god. That’s horrible for any age, but at 16?? Terrible.
Mate, holy shit man 2022 people are so deluded. This is called flirting and matter of fact is, SHE started it. And very clearly visible in this video she was flattered.
Fecking apes. Btw at 16 you are a fully grown woman physically 99.99% of the time. Most countries recognize that fact. In fact even most states in the - quite deluded about the matter - United states do. There is nothing wrong in this video, neither morally nor lawfully.
@@spudbencer7179 grabbing someone like that is “flirting”?? Definitely not.
@@MB-uj1oo Watch the video again dumbass.
He made a Joke. He merely gave her a hug. Do you even speak the same language as them? Are you part of the same species?
Sure, ignore the 5 instances before that where she touched him.
good grief, get a grip.
she seemed lose a lot of weight since leader of the pack
Why did Lloyd grab her and attack her like that?!? What a freak. Disturbing.
Lloyd was corny & creepy
The way he was interacting with Mary 😬 Not sure of her age, but… yikes.
@@JohnvanGurpshe was born in 1948 so she must have been 17 or 18.
All so innocent
@@drummerc1795born late December. So she was 16 here. That's just plain weird. Put him in jail.
She flirted with him first, but he went a little too far!
