- I had already produced a couple of Music Videos for Mr. Monte Van Struck for a band called "Puzzle". Monte was also managing a Legendary Band - "The Kingsmen"... He didn't have to ask me twice if I wanted to produce "Louie Louie"... I shot a take from 16 different camera angles... I was shooting alone, under extenuating circumstances, one of which was that I had a broken left shoulder from a skateboarding accident 3 days before.... And I had no assistant... Some hot babe whisked him away before we got the gear unloaded, and I didn't see him again until we were driving off. He was chasing the truck down, trying to pull up his pants.. right out of the movies.. They tore down the house the next week... We broke out all the windows so there would not be a glare for my shot... Dick Peterson spent a lot of time editing with me.... Without a controller... Crash Edited on the Beat....
That's pretty epic having original Kingsmen singing their classic at the Delta House before it's destruction. 👍🤟
Greatest days of my life ten years of college
Jim Owens Got my bachelors degree in six years and that included summer school 64-70. Also, was drafted & failed.
Comment is classic
You remember all that
Your student loans must be higher than the grocery bill. 😂
Remember it well!
This IS the best version of this song, without a doubt. You can't go wrong with a live band and everyone singing along.
I disagree completely . Nobody can cover this including them
One of the greatest rock tracks ever written !
one of the great under rated bands of the sixties
This is the best version of Louie Louie by the kingsmen
This was the original soundtrack recorded by Jack Ely as a demo for them to get a cruise ship gig...
Sang lead in a frat-party band at Penn State from fall 1965 thru spring 1967 and this song was always requested. At the time, I didn't know what the actual lyrics were. I just sang what I understood and what I didn't, I just faked. No one cared. Everyone was having good, rowdy time. Clearly, the singer here is not singing anything risque. He is singing the original lyric written by Richard Berry. This is a super rockin' version. Fantabulous!
WHAT original lyrics?!
Every frat party at P.S.U. rocked this song. I made up the dirty lyrics. ."and then I lay her again or whatever!!!!"
Grain alcoho/ fruit punch and Louielouie!
The Kingsmen were at the top of the food chain for frat rock in the 60's loved living it !!! Oh I almost forgot "TOGA TOGA TOGA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This reminded me of what it was like to be young again. Thanks
The most college party tune of all time
I was caught naked up a tree pissed out my head singing this great days
You didn't play rugby did ya? Haha
"Thank you sir---may I have another?"😊
An unknown northwest band gave us a classic rock n roll song. They own this Song and Jack Ely is the original singer!!!
Absolutely and Totally Fucking Awesome
Whatever 9 folks hit thumbs down on this, a big thumbs down to them,.
The Kingsmen Own this song!!!!!!!!
Johnny B. Goode , I Saw Her Standing There , Satisfaction , Louie Louie . ROCK N ROLL !
You left out Doo-Wah-Diddy-Diddy. It's a shame that nothing like these songs has been created since Ancient Times. Punk kids can't even ape their elders well.
The quintessential party song!
11-29-2021 @Alex Novak - There may be a debate between folks for the #1 "party song" slot, between Gloria, Dirty Water, 96 Tears, Hang on Sloopy, and Louie. I.M.O, the energy level "meter" is highest with Louie Louie.
The best live version I've heard of this!
Salve scrivo dall Italia, mio padre suonava e suona in una band ,ora sono io la solista e questa canzone conto di proporla a breve e una dei pezzi più belli del mondoooooo🎉😂😂 viva la pace
rock su
Fantastic ! Fun party ! Great to see them.
LOVE this song! thank you for the upload ;)
Great live performance, love looking at the audience reactions
Classic track
Uhuuuuuu...
Tocar o terror, Zuera geral!!!
Salute do Brasil 😀!!!

Fabulous 👌🏿
Absolutely the best version.
In the mid 60's every band in Pueblo was a Louie Louie Band
Absolutely Awesome
Thank You. I recorded this video on an 18 hour day pass from a county jail I was in for selling pot...
I had a broken shoulder...
It was a tough shoot, and Dick Peterson came to my studio to edit it..
I like that he did the solo like on the record. It sounds cool with a heavier guitar tone.
How not love this song?
It’s a classic for sure!
best version ever...
Reminds me of my 0.0 GPA …
Haha!! Looks like George Carlin playing the Es-335! Too cool to see the Delta House In action once more before it's demolition.
Rock and roll.
Fun version! I miss the drumming in the original Kingsmen recording, which sounds wilder than this drummer is doing.
THIS SONG HAD LEGS!!!
I kinda remember those days...kinda.
Jester, its gotta be the saddest story I ever heard, tearing down the Delta House. But I'm glad you got the chance to do it. Woulda been cool if they got Peter Riegert (Shoenstein) or Tim Matheson (Otter) to be there.
Sadly for parking lots. A lot of the houses around there were torn down as the hospital kept expanding.
Reminds me of the 7 years I spent in high school, LOL :D
Kids of today, this is what a party looks like
Lol
That's Freddie Dennis on vocals.
Amazing work !
Love it
RIP Mike Mitchell
Buenos recuerdos en mi epoca del Collage
RIP jack ely
The most fun you can have playing just three chords. A D Em
The absolute Best Version ever done.
Cool story about the video, Jester. Sad about the house.
Toga! Toga! Toga!
thx! so! much!
Top in of all.no one is left out.
Welcome to KILLER WHITE MUSIC.
Sad fact: That was the last party ever for what was the Delta House. Later that year, the building was demolished.
They couldn't have picked a better way to end it all than to have the legendary Kingsmen playing THE frat party song...
All I can understand is "Louie Louie we gotta go."
Sometimes I can hear "Hold her in my arms and never let go again"
Louie Louie, oh no
Sayin' we gotta go, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Said Louie Louie, oh baby
Said we gotta go
A fine little girl, she waits for me
Catch a ship across the sea
Sail that ship about, all alone
Never know if I make it home
Louie Louie, oh no no no
Sayin' we gotta go, oh no
Said Louie Louie, oh baby
Said we gotta go
Three nights and days I sail the sea
Think of girl, all constantly
On that ship I dream she's there
I smell the rose in her hair
Louie Louie, oh no
Sayin' we gotta go, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Said Louie Louie, oh baby
Said we gotta go
Okay, let's give it to 'em, right now!
See, see Jamaica, the moon above
It won't be long, me see me love
Take her in my arms again
I'll tell her I'll never leave again
Louie Louie, oh no
Sayin' we gotta go, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Said Louie Louie, oh baby
Said we gotta go
I said we gotta go now
Let's take this on outta here
Let's go!
CHrist! Forty years ago! Where did it all go?
What I thought college was gonna be like.... (sigh)
College WAS like this!
Life's what you want it to be
Oscar Martinez Melchor it was for me, but I actually graduated in 4 years, back in 79. Better than half of the freshman never crossed the finish line.

TOGA!!!
😪😪😪😪😪now people in the crowd like me are in our 60s
I am now 75...
That was 41 years ago in 1983
Seven years of college . . . down the drain! Might as well join the peace corps.
Flounder❤
You can smell the teen spirit.
This is why so many people with "college degrees" can't find a job.
Its the economy stupid.
UncaTuck they are just having fun like all college students should have for a party.

@@timjopplin7602 , that is close enough.
The FBI apparently investigated this song after people complained that the lyrics were obscene. They weren't.
The drummer accidentally dropped is sticks during the original recording, and said the F word. Might be what got the ball rolling. The song was banned on radio all over the place.
Toga Party!
NEEEEEEEEEERD!
Were you born yet in the late 70s?
Did you enjoy Animal House ?

I thought Mike Mitchell played the guitar solo but it looks like the guy with the red beard is playing the guitar solo, can anyone clear this up for me? I'm a professional lead guitarist so I notice these things.
Mike Mitchell did play the solo in the original recording of Louie Louie and he has been the lead guitarist for the Kingsmen since it was recorded..
Mike Mitchell died a year and a half ago, and his celebration of life video is on my channel…
Mike played the solo every time the Kingsmen performed...
The Kingsmen never had another lead guitar...
I think You are talking about Barry with the red beard.. I think he is on the bass...
This party went on for 15 takes on the song while I shot the party from every angle...
I was on an extended 18 hour
day pass from jail...
I got caught with some pot...
Jack was a really good friend of mine also...
there is a movie being made about the story of Louie Louie...
Somebody told me that Jack confessed to singing dirty lyrics but he swore the only bad words were when he came in 1 measure too early after the solo.. He said "Oh Shit"
@@jesterpro thanks.
Yes I think Barry was the rhythm guitar...
Nobody played the lead except Mike...
It has been 40 years since I produced this video...
I remember the short guy who was singing was Freddie...
Dick Peterson took over the band and became lead vocalist at some point
@@jesterpro Andy Parypa, from the Sonics was playing bass.
Bring back Frat Rock!
How to have a music career with one song you didn't write!
and not a fucking thing wrong with that. whatever works! Plus when its the most popular version, fuck it
Where is Belushi?
Where was this filmed?
That's right give your dog a beer. Lol.
Looks like Jack Ely and Lynn Easton are missing.
That is true... It is a long story we are making a movie about, why Jack was not there..
This was recorded in 1983... 20 years after Jack shouted up into the microphone on the original cut..
@@jesterpro Interesting on the original when Lynn was playing the drums and either dropped the stick or messed up a beat, he dropped the f-bomb, you can here it on the original release😏 Funny the censors were all over this song and never realized the f-bomb got thru. One of the greatest songs ever.
@@drmyeyes5878
You are correct ..
In the original cut there are two cuss words that were under the breath and barely audible ..
When was from Lynn at the beginning of the guitar solo ,
(I think), and the other f-bomb was when Jack came in 1 measure too soon after the guitar solo...
He gets out two syllables before he realizes he came in on the wrong beat ..
Then he says "oh shit",,
The cuss words were inaudible ,
So they were never censored for that however that glitch of coming in one beat too soon as we become part of this song that the people who truly copy the original add that glitch every time they play it ..
The glitch after the solo is when Jack sings "you say" , And that has become part of the song for everyone that records it...
Beta Theta Pi - toga party October 1963
Who is the singer.
That was Freddie
Don't know his last name
Freddie Dennis
Yeah, but what else did they play?! They didn't set up on stage to play just one 3 minute song!
You are correct sir..
This was a party they threw just to make a video of Louie Louie ..
I recorded 16 take's from the scaffolding they set up around the stage and from outside...
They had three kegs of Heineken and they invited three sororities to come party..
The guys had to have an invitation from a lady to be there ...
It was one heck of a party !!!
Dick Peterson and I edited it together ..
He was the drummer after Lynn Easton came out front to be the lead singer, when Jack Ely went into the army in 1962 ...
After a couple of national tours after the song got banned by the governor of Indiana, Lynn Easton quit the band...
They had a couple other front men for a few years, and then Dick Peterson came out from behind the drums and became the front man ...
He also handled the business for the band ...
I recorded this in 1983, and MTV had just started up...
This was one of the most requested videos that year..
It's the national party song for college kids ..
@@jesterpro Wow, thanks for that detailed reply, which, if I'm parsing it correctly, meant they played that song 16 times, so you could capture 16 different angles with your one camera! It's certainly a very fun song, but I have to wonder if people didn't tire of it after a dozen plays! On Wikipedia, it says the original Kingmen's song was recorded after the band had had a 90 minute marathon session of playing the song live to some teen club the night before... I suppose this music video taping was a reprise of that experience! I also read that Jack Ely is not the vocalist on this 1983 performance.
@@borisstarosta7823 Again you are correct...
There was a huge lawsuit between Jack and Dick about the use of the name "The Kingsmen" and the use of the original recording that was bootlegged 50,000,000 times in the first 10 years...
Jack could not use the name "The Kingsmen" and Dick could not lipsync to the original recording..
Dick solved the problem by future recording's having such low quality that you could not tell it was not the original...
Jack tried using several similar names such as "The Courtsmen" without any success...
This version I produced in 1983 was a re-mix with Freddy as the vocalist..

Hello, who wrote the song Louie Louie ?
Richard Berry wrote it in 1956 or 1957.
@@robertmalone5985 No Rene Touzet !955 Richard Berry 1957
I have a brick from this house.
They tore the house down a few months after I shot this video...
A full on rager!
Monte Struck, the manager of the Kingsman at that time bought three kegs of Heineken and gave a girls sorority invitations to bring the guys that they wanted to have their....
That was why that was such an outrageously fun party to go to ..
I recorded 15 takes from all different angles to edit this party together...
In 1983, it was all linear editing..
No computers...
My two 3/4" inch decks didn't even have a controller so I crash edited this all together the hard way...

Is this Jack Ely singing?
no, Jack Ely quit in 1963 and this is from 1983. I don't know the name of this singer.
It isn't Jack Ely or Lyn Easton. I don't know who the singer is, either. I do notice that Mike Mitchell's not playing the solo for some reason. Wonder why?
Thank you for responding I really did not understand the dynamic of the Kingsmen when I wrote this comment Now I understand who Jack Ely was and who Lynn Easton is or was Maybe Mr.Easton the guy originally behind the scenes, understood the power of television that was surging and wanted to be the frontman I only wanted to acknowledge to myself and to others one of the greatest RocknRoll records of all time A group who did it in one take I think a group should work as a team but I understand how record companies took total control taking most of the profits for themselves. It is complicated and unfortunate how music was made a business a long time ago
Vocals are Freddie Dennis (Liverpool Five) whom was their lead vocalist from 74-86
Jack Ely only recorded the Hit, quit the band before the song took off, Easton the only member who sing a lead vocal step out front...he quit and Freddie Dennis took over-Freddie was the best of all by the way.
