I am American, but I knew about the Hep Stars and the Hootenanny Singers from Abba. When I was in Stockholm, I bought a Hep Stars cassette, "Juke Box Memories". Benny Anderson was genius, still is.
Hep stars gäller för mig ännu jag minns i ungdomen när man liftade till Hunnebostrand för att se Hep stars det var fantastiskt vilken upplevelse det var
If you were around 10 in the early 60's and grew up on the outskirts of civilisation, in Norway - and had a 4 year old brother that just had spent his first earnings on a cheap portable "Bambino" record player - believe me, this was hot stuff. Getting hold of a HEP STARS single in those days was an exiting thing. Your hands were trembling the first time you put it on. They never played this type of music on Norwegian radios - you had to turn into Swedish ones. The next thing my brother bought was a pair of copies of shoes that the Beatles wore. You wouldn't believe it ! There were scenes in the schoolyard like in the opening scene of "A Hard Days Night." My brother - the hero of the day - had to be rescued by teachers and was for his own safety kept indoors. The day Paul McCartney got married, the girls in school were very mellow and stuck to themselves and cried silent tears in the corners. Times were different and we threw ourselves over anything that would give us a glimps of what was to come. That's why HEP STARS were so great !
That keyboard player is 15/16 year old Benny Andersson (ABBA). He joined the Hep Stars at age 15. That is when the Hep Stars took off. Benny then started writing original material for the Hep Stars. Benny's first instrument was the accordion at age 6. He started playing piano at age 10. Benny is self taught. The first song he wrote for the Hep Stars was 'No Response'. A minor hit. The second song he wrote for HS was 'Sunny Girl. A major hit. Number 1. Benny met Bjorn (ABBA) in 1966. They were both the musical motors of their respective bands. In 1969 Benny met Anni-Frid Lyngstad (ABBA). She was a Swedish national award winning vocalist. Also in 1969, Bjorn met Agnetha Falkskog (ABBA) she was a composer and Swedish pop star. Bjorn & Benny made an album together in 1970 & had their girlfriends sing backup on a song, 'Hey Old Man'. Bjorn & Benny knew that the girls were way better singers and sounded beautiful together. ABBA was born, without anyone knowing it yet. The first song together as an official group (Pre ABBA name) was 'People Need Love' . Benny Andersson & Bjorn Ulvaes have been writing together since 1966. 1966 - present. That is a quick & short history of Hep Stars keyboard player Benny Andersson.
16. april 2022. Bassist Lennart «Lelle» Hegland fra det svenske 60-tallsbandet Hep Stars er død, 79 år gammel. Hvil i fred/Rest in Peace. Da jeg var 10/11 år gammel hørte jeg Cadillac for første gang - for et kick!
Tänk att man ska behöva läsa om den saken här. Tack för infon och omtanken. Jag var tre år yngre än du när jag hörde Hep Stars "I natt jag drömde." Då hade bandet redan gjort "Cadillac" till en nordisk klassiker.
yes Hep Stars 4-ever. Minns de førsta sændingen på tv nær jag var tonåring. och jag skaffade alla hep stars singlar på den tiden och har några kvar hos mej.æn.æven affischer ....oj jøsses..vilka minnen her sett dem live 3 gånger
Thanks for sharing! Svenne Hedlund said recently,"we're still the greatest", and I believe it after this performance. The Hep Stars were hot, and Benny Andersson was a god on keyboards even then.
Jag var 15 år och åkte till Hunnebo för att se o h höra Hepstars. Cadillac var då min favoritlåt. Den låg etta på svensktoppen. Svenne hade en rosa polotröja
Och sen vill jag önska en skiva nu också när jag ändå är i radion å då vill jag höra Cadillac med The Hep Stars för den har jag inte hört på 10 år och så får det inte vara i radio tycker jag.
Ive got a old homevideo from '96 where im 1 y.o dancing in diapers to this absolute banger. I literally went from the maternity ward into my dads all blacked out '66 Coupe Deville hehe
Well, if you liked this one, do listen to the 1979 BBC recording of Waterloo live, including its coda. Regrettably the night of the concert (from 6 available) that Ludwig chose to release the recent ABBA Live in Wembley CD/DVD, in that song his piano playing is much more restrained. Instead at the BBC's chosen day, Benny was playing Rachmaninov-fast arpeggios swept by the groove, together with the Bass players and all there. Waterloo was the energetic last cusp of the night playlist, being followed by emotive songs to cool down and put a warm vibe on concert-goers for sure. Ooh! what a blast that performance is, best Waterloo live ever, and this is a difficult feat with the many performances of that iconic tune, including the pure innocence of their Eurovision world outing. A good snippet of the very same superb performance was included in the Video Special of 1979 Live tour, right at the cinematic intro mixed with concert footage, travel action and such.
har live-lp,där denna är låt är med..i början säger(skriker) presentatören även namnen på bandmedlemmarna,men det kom inte med här...vinylen på min skiva är grönspräcklig!!häftigt!!!
Fortsättning. Rosa polotröja på sig. Jag blev såå besviken. På den tiden hade inte coola killar rosa på sig. Men låten håller fortfarande tycker jag. Maggie Alexandersson
Bästa låten med HEPSTARS. Tack för alla fina låtar som ni har framfört. Tack för allt. VILA I FRID SVENNE HEDLUND. 🌹⚘🌹

Björn and Benny
Tack för din tid med oss Svenne. Musiken lämnar du kvar.
Hep Stars fortfarande låter fantastiskt efter nästan 50 år.
Låten Cadillac är fortfarande spännande
Hep stars gäller för mig ännu jag minns i ungdomen när man liftade till Hunnebostrand för att se Hep stars det var fantastiskt vilken upplevelse det var
Detta är Hep Stars absolut bästa låt tycker jag. Tack så mycket Svenne Hedlund.

@@Varangian_af_Scaniae Haha! Well said :(
R.I.P. Svenne. Thank you for the music ♥️
they keyboardist is Benny Anderson, one of the four ABBA's in the 70s.....
Detta var Sveriges nationalsång i mina ögon när jag va 7-9 år :) Underbara minnen återkommer
Woooo..Cadillac..min favoritlåt under 60-talet...Grymt å se dom igen såhär!!

Var stor fan.
Benny is SO TALENTED and this band is really good!

Underbara HepStars mina idoler när jag var liten!❤️
Sweden's most popular band…until April 6, 1974.
Awesome band! The should have become more popular overseas!!
An old version of headbanging 😎 😂 love it!!!!!
Jag var 15 år och åkte till Hunnebo för att se o h höra Hepstars. Cadillac var då min favoritlåt. Den låg etta på svensktoppen. Svenne hade en rosa polotröja
Cadillac har väl aldrig legat på Svensktoppen
Jag har kanske fel. Det var nog Svenne Hedlund jag ville se. Förlåt! Det var inte meningen.
Jeg glemmer de aldri!!! Danset mye til Hep Stars. Tusen takk
One of the truly classics! Still works
I think this is the first time I saw Benny freaking out 😀😃😄😁😆
Nostalgi för mig, med många minnen
RIP Svenne🌹
Vince Taylor did this song as "Brand New Cadillac". Great sixties Rock song! Nice to see young Benny Anderson on keys!
In fact I've understood it was Vince Taylor who wrote this song!
Taylor along with Johnny Kidd were the first British rock'n'rollers.
underbar låt träffade min rolle med denna låt
RIP Svenne !
Blir nostalgisk, bra låt, Tack
I am glad these clips exist.
I always thought I was the biggest fool around.
On näistä muusikoista video tallennus. Reissasivat. Suomessa. Tekivät musiikki historiaa. The. Renegats
Århundradets mest enfaldiga låt. =D
Och sen vill jag önska en skiva nu också när jag ändå är i radion å då vill jag höra Cadillac med The Hep Stars för den har jag inte hört på 10 år och så får det inte vara i radio tycker jag.

Vila i frid, fina Svenne Hedlund.
Wow! Det här är KULTUR!
Tyckte väldigt mycket om Hep Stars på den tiden
Härligt såg dom i L krona

Som göteborgare så var det Tages som gällde först, sen kom Hep Stars
This is GREAT!!!!!
Benny is the real star here.
Love this!
I LOVE HEPSTARS
had never heard benny play like that! he's on fire! wow!
they sound like the doors! no wonder they were a hit!

Mycket bra låt
De e nåt speciellt med gammal musik !

Magic for ever
The 1960's live !!!!!
But: is it live or playback in a studio? There are no amplifiers in sight, nor are there any leads connected to the guitar and bass!
UNDERBART ATG S
TITTA PÅ DETTA CZcams KLIPP ÅR 202E. SJÄLV ÄR JAG 70 ÅR NU 🙋♀️💙💚💙💚💙💚💙🙋♀️
He-he Benny on frog-piano , nice
The Clash did a great cover of this smash hit.
The original is Vince Taylor and the Playboy's Brand New Cadillac which is one of the two best versions (the other being the Clash).
R.I.P Svenne Hedlund.
...for the good times
R.I.P 🙏
R.I.P. Svenne.
Lot of fun watching this clip.Great.Never heard of those guys.Danke!
The keyboardist is Benny Andersson...aka of ABBA.
Very nice !
R.I.P. Svenne
I was 10 1966
Det var tråkigt
Hep stars that's Rockn roll
kul att du la upp detta!!!!
benny is so frickin cute in this
Jag vill ba säga att jag är 30 år och gillar denna låt 🙂
Jajävlar va rom shejkar loss🤘
Yes💕🇫🇮❤️🎶
It's a good thing I wasn't there cause I would've been jumping on that stage, how can I contain myself if they flip their hair like that!
FIRE!
Kingen.
BENNY❤
Style over substance but the beat is good and the solo as well. Benny learned a lot until 1970, probably that helped with Abba.
Nu vet jag inte om jag ska skratta eller gråta. Men detta är typiskt 70-tal. Men då var de mina stora idoler.
70-tal? Detta är 60-tal så det skriker om det!
1965
This is the renegades song
