First heard this song on Capital Radio in London in 1977 , went to record shop to buy it , but the guy behind the counter had never heard of it . So had to wait till i got my first lap top to download it , now it's in my ITunes most 25 played songs
I loved this record growing up in the 60's. I actually identified after being sent home because I grew sideburns and a mustache, My girlfriend was sent home on account of her hair being too high. Now they wear what they want and get away with it.
Amazing! Thank you for posting this rare clip from Where The Action is. Bonnie And The Treasures, the trio of Charlotte O'Hara (Charlotte Matheny), Sherlie Matthews and Clydie King, had a great look and a soulful sound. Jody Miller had the bigger hit with this message song about nonconformity and I like it a lot, but the version by Bonnie And The Treasures is definitive. Adding to the magic of this performance are The Action Kids dancers in the background. The video is worth repeating simply to watch the moves of Roberta Tennes, Jill Gordon and the guys. Try playing the vid at popcorn speed (0.75). It prolongs the pleasure, allowing you to study the singers and the dancers, and the scene becomes otherworldly! Lead singer "Bonnie" left this world in 1976. The lovely Roberta Tennes (close-up at :37) who danced in movie musicals, was one of the Gazzarri Dancers on Hollywood A Go-Go, and was a member of The Action Kids dance troupe on Where The Action is, passed away in 2015. I wish I had a time machine.
Preserve this for historic reasons in a secure vault ......send in to space so any other finds it may appreciate .... i have no idea what this has but it excells at all areas possable ...great stuff ...
Wow this is a rare film. I have two copies of this great song. One on Phi-Dan and the other on a rare UK release London (Yellow Demo) Thank you so much for posting has made my day. Clydie and Sherlie are fab, I have several 45s by both artists.👍😊
This song is new to me, now to be able to put faces to the voices. I myself think this song had every thing, it should have had better promotion. I was into buying 45s' at this stage here in NZ, i don't remember hearing this song, what a shame for the artists and every one concerned with this song.
Thanks for posting this video! I had a lot of fun working, and being good friends, with Charlotte and Clydie! May I post this on one of my CZcams channel Playlists?
Knew the Jody Miller version ,had not known of this one.Noted that it includes some lyrics not on that version.. She performs it on Hollywood A-Go-Go, which is on CZcams. One thing for sure this song is so relevant and timely today ,dealing as it does with accepting differences.Whether the difference involves race, LGBT, nationality, religion, and so on.

Same here. Song was playedby the great Roger Scott. I managed to buy it years later and also downloaded it. I have it on my phone playlist.
Same here too. I totally dug the drums on it and the haunting lyrics.

Clydie King we will miss her wonderful voice

Great song that sounds like something that the Crystals or the Shangri Las would have recorded!
@HooverDude 60 I used to have the single so it must have been released.
yes, another phil spector wall of sound single.
Love the version by Linda Gayle
On Shindig
My favorite version for sure. I used to think it was the Ronettes under a fake name. Ha. Wrong, gong gong. Such a good song.
The Ronettes recorded it first. It was never released. But you can hear it on CZcams.
Wall of sound
Never heard this!
The Jody Miller version got the airplay
Have a listen to the unissued, unfinished original version intended for the Ronettes......

@@AnthonyReichardt Thanks for this. RIP Ronnie
One of the finest songs written since the end of WW2 and the message is as true and relevant today as it ever was.
Another song produced by genus Phil Spector, hope both the lead singer and Phil rest in peace.
Apparently not Spector
no, just copying his sound and style
All Revved Up With No Place to Go, twelve years later. Meat Loaf and the late Jim Steinman. Listen to it and tell me that I'm wrong!
Priceless Girl-Sound!!!
Sounds like a shangri-las song.
wonderful Sherlie Mathews !
Thanks jerkin my chain! lol

Ronettes - HOME OF THE BRAVE - unreleased acetate - (Gold Star Studios) (1965)
An unkown Bonnie but I like this!!!!!!!!!
I've never met motive Bonnie. Wow!!
Thank you for posting. First time seeing Bonnie sing this. Great song that deserved better.
One of a few interracial girl groups at the time.
Looks like the Port of Long Beach
This blows Jodie Miller’s version out of the water
Please listen to the song"all revved up with no place to go" by Meat Loaf...it is a complete and identical rip off of this tune! Outrageous!!
I just listened..you're right!
That Asian guy dancing in the background...
Yes ..he is so happy he escaped viet nam , and founded a home savings and loan company ...
These girls are fake Ronnie and the ronetts. Are on this track .
