----------------------------------------------------
Sheepdog
Standing in the rain
Bullfrog
Doing it again
Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
What makes you think you're something special when you smile?
Child-like
No one understands
Jack knife
In your sweaty hands
Some kind of innocence is measured out in years
You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
If you're lonely you can talk to me
Hedgehog
Living in the sand
Leapfrog
Giving him a hand
Some kind of attitude is measured out inside
You think you're going but you haven't got a ride
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can tal to me
If you're lonely you can talk to me
Big man
Walking in the park
Wigwam
Frightened of the dark
Some kind of solitude is measured out in you
You think you know me but you haven't got a clue
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
If you're lonely you can talk to me
Wahoo woof! Woof!
Hey bulldog! Hey bulldog!
Hey bulldog! Hey bulldog!
Hey man, what's that boy?
Woof!
What do you say?
I said "woof!"
You know anymore?
Wooaah ha ha ha!
You've got it, that's it, you had it!
That's it, man, woo!
That's it! You've got it!
Don't look at me man, I only have ten children
Ah ho! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Quiet boy, quiet!
Okay
Quiet!
Hey bulldog!
Hey bulldog!

Fanny was an American all-female band, active in the early 1970s. They were one of the first notable rock groups to be made up entirely of women, the third to sign with a major label (after Goldie & the Gingerbreads and the Pleasure Seekers), and the first to release an album on a major label (in 1970). They achieved two top 40 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 and released five albums.
Sisters June Millington (born April 14, 1948, Manila, Philippines) and Jean Millington (born May 25, 1949, Manila, Philippines) moved with their family from the Philippines to Sacramento, California in 1961. In high school they formed an all-girl band called the Svelts with June on guitar, Jean on bass, Addie Lee on guitar, and Brie Brandt on drums. Brandt was later replaced by Alice de Buhr (born September 4, 1949, Mason City, Iowa). When the Svelts disbanded, de Buhr and Lee formed another all-female group called Wild Honey. The Millington sisters later joined this band, which played Motown covers and eventually moved to Los Angeles.
In January 1970, Nickey Barcley was asked to join Fanny as a singer and keyboardist. She was one of the main songwriters and lead singers in the group, and appeared on all their albums, adding soul, blues and funk influences to the group's overall sound. - Hudba
This band was not a gimmick.They were superb musicians.
its a cover song bro
@@skyscrapersx5877 Yes. And your point is?
why would they be a gimmick?
@@user-en6tz3iy1z In the context of the time it was unusual to have all-women bands who played instruments as well as singing. (Even single female instrumentalists in otherwise all-male bands, such as Honey Lantree of The Honeycombs or Megan Davies of The Applejacks were considered novelties.) There would have been a kind of irrational prejudice against it among many people.
I am nearly 64 and I remember the climate of those times.
@@user-en6tz3iy1z The Monkees started out as one, but later became a real band.
For the benefit of others, June Millington, guitar, Jean Millington bass, Nicky Barclay, keyboards, Alice de Buhr, percussion
Thank you
Alice de Buhr, percussion is a better "Ringo" than Ringo.
Now the world gets introduced to...Fanny! Rock on, y'all

These chicks are like all the greats. They all play together with one mind. It's total group think.
One of the greatest cover songs I’ve ever heard! Phenomenal!
Real deal right here. Never got the full recognition they deserved.
Not one weak spot in that lineup, extremely talented musicians!
Watching Alice on drums is mesmerizing.
was thinking the same thing..something about her style...but i dig what you are saying..
She puts Ringo to shame someone had to say it
@@disembowlmovemntdepends on the track, I'd say ringo's playing better than this in tracks like "Rain", listen to take 4 in which it isn't sped down
those triples were incredible! Alice is up top with Bonham and Ginger!
@@jcedwards8363Calm down. You're getting carried away.
What the hell did I just watch? That was INCREDIBLE.
Same feeling
yes, where was this band. I only found them last year in 23. what the .
naw it wisnae
What you saw was from a time when the music was so great that a band like this was over-shadowed.
In 1971, the music world was still mourning the loss of Jim, Janis, and Jimi.
you watched a cover song
That drummer is absolutely killing it. I'm impressed.
I really enjoy the drummer as well. 😎
She plays like a girl.
@@philiptate8009 She's dreamy. 😍
@@FlyGuy2000
Or she was in 1971. She sure dressed for success, didn't she?
Plus, Keyboards w/a Quickness( wow ). Guess They all did their part !@@FlyGuy2000
Saw Fanny live at the Whiskey in 1972. I walked in, and they were playing Hey Bulldog, to a packed house. The band was so tight, in the pocket. One of the best live performances I have ever seen.
@Mellissa Boomer of the Night
Here's another all female RnR band from the same time: czcams.com/video/sn1Z4dMDbx0/video.html
That is quite gnarly.
That is amazing to hear. To have the founders be these mixed-race women. Double whammy obstacles : racism and sexism and yet they ROCKED. I want to hear more!
@@redvelvetvixen
Fanny has 5 CDs at their website.
@@redvelvetvixen
Racism and sexism? Maybe from inside the music industry, but all my stoner, white boy friends loved them because they rocked hard. Nobody gave a sht about their gender or ethnicity. Saw them open for Mountain and went the next day and bought their album. Then saw them 2 more times, afterwards.
Whenever there was a party Fanny was right in the stack with ELP, Hendrix, Stones, Beatles, Zeppelin, Who, Spooky Tooth, James Gang, J. Geils, etc. We had a nine LP turntable. When they were done we'd just flip them over.
What a fricking band . Probably the best live performance iv ever seen . This whole Session is a bomb track 🤯
I remember hearing of them, but I never actually heard their music. My loss, they rock!
Really, really tough band. And not to forget: BEAT-CLUB recordings in those days were absolutely live. No overdubs, no playbacks, no pitch correction.
True that but still BC won't allow Fanny to issue a CD of their OWN performance.
You do know auto-tune mics have been around a very long time, right? Once a person hears his/her voice from the speakers pitch gets even closer to 12TET, so it can be difficult to hear if any auto-tune is enabled.
@@TotalDec 1971?
@@TotalDec Lol, there was no pitch correction (especially not in real time) in the 1970s, this is ALL analog.
Somebody’s in the wrong century 😂
A rare cover that I prefer to the original. Fantastic piano work. Props to all.
Lucky enough to hear these rockers play live at the 1971 Chippewa Lake Park ballroom [since long ago burned down] in Medina OH sponsored by some Detroit FM station. Alice Cooper failed to show but these girls made it so you didn't care. [And the just kickin' in windowpane tuned them up a lot. Hey, after all, it was, and I suppose still is: O on each side and high in the middle.]
Yes, Virginia, the 70's were everything your mother and father warned you against: freedom.
Life ! Energy ! Optimism ! SUPERB !!!
Can't believe I haven't heard this before. Absolutely badass.
This was my thought exactly. They were so far ahead of their time it's insane. So sick!
@@miameramusic Umm, this is a cover of a very famous Beatles song. It's good cover, but chill with the 'ahead of their time', lol
Came to the comments to say the same. How in the 50 years since that performance have I never heard it or heard of them. I fear that brave name may not have helped.
great musicianship esp the lead guitar but the keys player is a bit overpowering like they sound a bit off even though they have great voices and female harmonies sound better in general(well except the beatles and crosbey,still,nasshyoung ,the eagles but these three are exceptions and exceptional,still fantastic groove and with the right direction they could have really gotten off more than they did..like the first riff is so cool and unexpected from a hey bulldog cover :))
This is a Beatles' song
The greatest band I never heard of.
Amen brother!
Me2!
You never heard of fanny? I despair. 😂
So you heard of Mr Bungle!? Nice!!!
I have a crush on the ( Niki ) keyboard . Cute .
One of best covers I've found. Same energy, same rock'n'roll.
I would say the best.
Who's better?
@@olefosshaug5565 Weezer's Paranoid Android
Favorite Beatle song of all time. And, they nailed it !!!
That’s what a 335 sounds like revved up with no effects just an overdriven amp,,, brilliant
*355
Amazing tone!
Looks like she added a master volume pot on the pickguard. Brilliant idea, actually.
I love this guitar sound. Can anyone tell which amp she's using. Some kind of small Fender by the looks of it.
Duuude so good
Their choice of covering one of the Beatles best songs, while putting their own distinctive stamp on it, makes this group one of those bands needing much more exposure. Well worth anyone's time watching.
Maybe it was too soon to cover bulldog. I for one was still not over the beatles breakup. Wasn't ready for a cover.
@@meandmymonkey5137 oh you weren’t huh…just admit it, you don’t like this True Cover
It’s a pretty straightforward cover
Blazer......
@Stephen Beck-von-Peccoz they weren't musical geniuses is a point that I would grant you. I also wished that they had produced more original material. But they deserve more credit than they received. Think about the rock world when they were playing. I can't think of any other groups which were all women. They weren't taken seriously by many because of their gender, and always fighting that battle is hard work. With more support they might have been able to develop their sound and skills.
Alice is simply a fantastic drummer.
Such a brilliant cover
My first experience of Fanny and I can't say I'm disappointed!
was that meant to be as rude as it sounds?
@@eddisstreethuh? Is this because fanny is British slang for vagina? I think the original comment was just straightforward and genuine. Regardless, this was my first experience of the group too, and wow that was impressive.
@@benjerman4438 I do know what the word means - I was not sure whether the statement was meant as a joke or if it was just a bad choice of words
Didn't come across as either to me. If they can't say they're disappointed then they ARE saying they thought it was rather good, which is objectively true, this band rocked!
@@ZeroBudgetFilmSchool rather well said.
The drummer is fantastic .and her hair is stunning ❤❤❤
What the heck?!! Man, this was killer! Their arrangement is tight and free. I never heard of Fanny. Hey Bulldog is one of my favorite songs by the Beatles. These girls made it their own. Too much man!
Liked that version way better than Beatles original
Watched this once and then again and again. At the age of nearly 57 it's great to be still be discovering new gems, no matter how long it's been around. When I find solid legacy music, I do wonder what happened to the artist/s and where are they now and often a trip over to Wiki opens up a whole new world of interest.
Don’t forget……girl bands in the early 70’s really didn’t get the credit they deserved……these girls were just a little ahead of their time
I'm 57 and I'd never heard of this band until a week ago, but I'm very impressed.
I haven't heard them till today watched documentary about him so I had to check him out I like it
People thought The Bangles were the first girl band. In interviews someone asked The Bangles how they feel about The Spice Girls. They responded "we were a band. They are not". Very true. Much respect to Fanny and other pioneers.
It's a mandela effect, I think
@@daydoe40s Yes, maybe.
You have me beat by a month and 6 days. And I am 56.
pioneers who don't get the credit they deserve. maybe they didn't have the hits, but they definitely had the chops.
Thanks, MemphiStig! Alice
@@alicedebuhr6457 holy jeezum
@@marleycadotte9630 Thank you!! Alice
They were great, but pioneers of what?
In 1971?
This is a Beatles song!!!
I get goose bumps to every track so far . . . Wow!
Sacramento, CA based band. I watched them play when I was a teen. My sister's band, "She" used to open for them.
Hey you should look up a band called The Doublejumps if you like music from the 70s
@MassiveFish-hp4pm You need to stop your hucksterism now. Stop your commercial posts.
I love when CZcams algorithms deliver like this!
Just curious had you been listening the Beatles version forever like me. This is hot.
@@BIgBass255I have ofc
ofc? original fan club?@@Beatleslover3
@@BIgBass255 lmfao it’s a abbreviation for “of course”
If only I had read your name first.🤣🤣🤣
Now can we all agree there is some level of sexism in the music industry?
I have seen dozens of docs on obscure bands from the seventies, and books.
I am 56, and never, ever heard of Fanny.
And they are obviously really good, and can play whatever they want.
Obviously people did hear of and hear "Fanny" in their day. They were afforded many airplays, media appearances, promotions and articles. They sold large numbers of records, but not as many as eg.: "The Beatles" who originated "Hey Bulldog".
IMHO: "Sexism" is a powerful word, best not scattered about without due context.
there is a 2021 documentary "Fanny: The Right to Rock"
Not sure their band name would go down too well in britain
They were quite well known in their day, played together for six years, had two top 40 hits and recorded five albums which received favorable and often glowing reviews from major rock critics. The last few years they've been getting a lot of attention because of general interest in the era. This is a cool version of Hey Bulldog. I was around then and playing music professionally in the States. Among my peers, both women and men, they were considered to be a solid rock band that did a mix of covers and originals. I never sensed any sexism in the press or elsewhere in regard to Fanny.
No, we can’t. For a start, this was 50 years ago, the musicianship is at best adequate, and they’re doing a cover of a pretty forgettable Beatles song. What else did they do? And let’s not forget that Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Queen were also doing the rounds at this time, against which this band look like rank amateurs.
What a f**kin kick ass version. Absolute respect
Since finding this band . I've almost become addicted. But this is 2023 ! They're so fierce . I love them . Hey Bulldog . 👄 🤩💥💥💥💥💥💥😘
The girl/lady who plays bass has been very sick lately, let us pray for her health..
Aww! Prayers for her, way up to God's ears🙏🙏
The guitarist and bass player have both been ill. The bass player, Jean, had a stroke a couple of years ago, and the guitarist, June, has cancer and is getting chemo. But a reunited Fanny is still making appearances, sometimes playing live at screenings of the new film that was made about them.
@@LifeIsaTrain It seems that June started a go fundme on behalf of her sister Jean. They already reached their goal, but it feels kinda strange. These girls are kinda legendary.
I still listen to them. Lots of love from me and hopefully they will continue to rock for many more years. \m/
I will pray that she gets better.
Get well sister, you gals rock.
Old school rocker girls. Never heard of them, but glad to discover them.
Wow , I've never heard of this band . They friggin rocked !
I remember these gals during my high school years, a real female rock band.
How have I never heard this before? This is some serious, Grade-A, top notch early 70's rock!
doesnt even mention its a beatles song. to complete the yellow submarine album they just recorded it for that. So this is a throw away song.
@@armondtanz
Fanny weren't responsible for the omissions of postings of Beat-Club. Particularly since they don't make coin off it.
@@thirdbase6870 i think it would get more views if they mentioned the beatles ;)
@@armondtanzyou seem bitter over nothing
@@jonsponser wot I say that is bitter? Enlighten me oh wise one.
I was pointing out sum facts.
-The Beatles hated the songs on yellow sub.
-they regarded them as throw away songs
songs
-George Harrison literally wrote "it's only a northern song"
-The uploader defo should of mentioned the beatles in the title.
Maybe blunt but defo NOT bitter???
Wow! And that drummer just murdered this.
This a cover of an underplayed Beatles song and these gals Rocked it! I hope your bass player is back to healthy and in good spirits and in a big way🙏
One of the best Beatles song !!!
Wow. This drummer is absolutely killing that beat. Fantastic performance!

@@alicedebuhr6457 I didn't appreciate how crucial drumming is until our daughter took up the art. Anyway, she married a drummer and now we have a drumming Grandson as well! Really good program about your band on (English) TV last night (5/5/23)
I always think it's brave/foolish to cover a Beatles track as I lurrrrv the Beatles and have heard some hideous versions over my (70 tomorrow!) years. Nevertheless, yours was a superb rendition and I salute you as a great band! I think you were on with 'Whispering Bob' with the 'Old Grey whistle Test' about 50 years ago... oh dear; was it really that long ago??
That was Awesome !! They were all killing it !!
Absolutely astounding performance live, no lip-syncing bulshit! 50 years ago... all girl band, Fanny, can't believe I never heard them before. Probably the best all-female rock performance I've ever seen
Absolute great rendition of the song and really talented band but the title of best all-female rock band goes to Band-Maid
WOW!!! They owned that song. That is a fantastic cover.
The drummer is on FIRE on this one.
Nice, but not quite. Look up Dave Grohl, and Jeff Lynn's version with RIngo and Paul in the audience. Amazing stuff.
@@jhandle4196 Both good performances,Grohl and Lynn's being the better of the two but John and Paul own this song. The ladies are VERY good,though.
@@jhandle4196 this is a true band though. 1971 not bad for not having that all star band you just mentioned. Steve lukather for crissakes! Just saying.
@@jhandle4196This version destroys Grohls version
Фантастика .Не могу оторваться . Каждый кадр ...., Завораживает.
Абсолютно! Пересмотрел уже раз 15.
I’ve never heard this cover before. It’s absolutely beautiful! Great performance here!
I have heard people say that Fanny was a great rockin' band and now I have to agree!
Do a CZcams search, they played a show, I think in France, with covers of Badge by Cream and Young & Dumb, by Ike & Tina Turner. Their cover of Badge was original, but they OWNED Young & Dumb. Btw, there is a version of this entire broadcast, uncut, with more songs!
They were right up there with the best of the male bands.
The drummers bloody brilliant and very kind on the eyes
She's 90 now.
She was excellent her names Alice.
@@cpoul Not even close, lol. Alice is a young 73 and still bringing it on the kit..
i got there album an got to see them live at the university of memphis. it was great.
That drummer plays so tight 😮 also so hot at the same time. Cool sound!!!
Great song performed brilliantly.
These were musicians.
tight and full of energy. And really good singing.
Back in '71, I had never heard of this group back in their day! Very impressed by them too.
Every couple of years I come across a gem here on CZcams. 2023 has now been crossed off. I came across this 2 days ago and watched it, without a lie, at least 100 times. The musicians, the sound, the vibe. Also, 1:30 that wiggle. It's like the bass is playing her. In the process now of sourcing their back catalogue on cd or vinal if available. No bands like this anymore.
I totally agree! I stumbled across this video tonite. These female musicians are also awesome! Every member is pounding this song. They are better than today's so-called wannabes!
Check out Dea Matrona.
I agree !
Alice's timing never falters one bit, and the transitions are gold. Absolutely superb drummer.
Right on!!
Thank you, Andrew! Alice
Alice was/is SOLID GOLD! Rock on!

Yes, all obscure female bands should be for sure in the HOF by 2023.
These ladies ROCK❤
I fucking love this band. They are so tight. The drummer is incredible.
Thank you, Jeyzur! Alice
Loads of love in the comments. Better late than never, and fully deserved for one of the tightest rock bands of the era. x
Flippin brilliant! Stone cold hard rockin from a band of ladies, love it!
I love the intensity of the drummer
This is one of the very few bands where I sit here listening to them play and shaking my head at how amazingly good they are in every aspect. That guitar tone is just absolutely kick ass.
Jeez how many bands have you listened to?
@@sstills951 hundreds. It's been a while a band has caught my interest like this one.
Amazingly good? Ehh.
I am revisiting my comment. And revisiting yours. "One of the very few bands" "amazingly good".
Jeez. I don't want to take anything away from this band but come on man. Have you been living under a rock?
@@sstills951 lol no. There are a ton of bands I love, but I just dig the vibe of this one. Let me rephrase: On of the very few bands LATELY that have I considered amazingly good. It's been a long time I have been enthused by a band. Most music coming out the past 20 years is over polished and completely uninteresting. Tell me what bands get your motor running. I may think the same way you do regarding this one. For instance, if you honk on U2, I will think you have lost your mind. In the mean time, this band still kicks ass and should have had lot more recognition.
Seen this band in the early 1970's at Edgewater park in Cleveland they blew me and my friends away was just a teenager back then and I fell in love with them ..great band that should of been superstars

i love finding new old music
They always come up in discussions of first all female bands and best female bands period. This is the first performance I have seen of them. Wow! Great live band. Everybody pulling their weight. Excellent musicians.
Just happened to come across this. Glad I did. A group of very talented young ladies.
Good Rock style. Love them, great years to play, the competition was huge, you had to be really good to stand out...
When I opened this I thought they were performing now and not in 1971! Amazing video
What raw energy and timing. Unbelievable talent. These women are incredible.
I've listened to just about everything I can find, from these ladies, since I stumbled on them a couple days ago...I can't believe, I never heard of these ladies, I'm a huge hard rock, classic metal fan, southern rock...late 1960's, early 1970's..huge fan and I had never heard of...now, i'm a huge fan of them, sadly 50 yrs too late...love them.
Snap!
@jfk64kennedy95 Same here. I had never heard of Fanny as well. I feel enlightened!
They played so well and why did I not have heard of them? They should have made it to the very top!
I saw them live in 1971 at Memphis State University. Loved them
No idea how I ended up here, but I'm glad I did! Never heard of them before. Awesome.
Dude these chicks rock. Never heard of them but I super dig it.
Alice...wow! The snare fills at 2:47 and 3:27...no press rolls, no doubles, no cheatin'...all single strokes well executed. Really nice!
Thanks, Alan Alice
Like the extra verse they wrote
Doubles and press rolls aren’t cheating. They are rudiments. Single roles are impressive and all but there is a place for those others in rock playing. Any drummer worth their salt can do all three and use them effectively to serve the song.
@@shaneborger9054 Of course you're right. Just saying she can play with good technique and not afraid to play these parts the hardest and most gratifying way.
I heard that too (on my first listen). The drumming stood out to me. She was kicking ass and taking names. Not just standard 4/4 filler keeping a basic beat. She's adding value. All 4 gifted musicians.
Every one of these Fanny tracks that re-emerges is more slappin' than the last one. What treasure.
String bending got me rocking. Great job.
Hell, they are incredible.
I so fancied the drummer
Intense.
Didya? I was kinda keen on the keyboardist myself 😉😎
Heck yeah!
Right with ya’
Way before my time but I like the bassist.
Those drums are so good.
Excellent! When a cover hits the mark.
WOW! They were a band the year that I was born. I have never heard them before. They ROCK!!
They are all excellent and the drummer really kicks ass !!
Well, that was just excellent.
Brutal fenomenal good band
These videos are such an undiscovered GEM from the darkened past. Damn it, why didn't these ladies make it super HUGE! The performances show they would have deserved it!
Brilliant arrangement. Love it.
Great band, i especially love the harmony in their voices. And that each band member, has the voice of a front/main singer :)
I adored them.
Wonderful, incredible!
SLAMMIN’!!! The fact The Beatles gave Fanny the green light to add a new verse says all you need to know about this astonishing band.
June, Jean, Nickey and Alice deserve to have much greater recognition. Four brilliant albums in as many years which still sound fresh and vital 50 years later.
AFAIK one does not need permission to add a new verse，although it is a courtesy to ask。
Now That’s Rock n roll! Respectfully inquiring as to whether they would be so kind as to allow them to …blah blah
“Obtaining permission” that just screams rock star
@@RozarSmacco wow. You are so cool. Such edgy rebellion!
On the Fanny Hill album this song was recorded at the Abbey Road studio, most likely the #2 studio.
@@kenchristie9214 it was at the Apple Studios with Geoff Emerick as engineer between 4-18 December 1971.
This is one of those great Lennon McCarthy songs that mixes Lennon's love of electric blues with Paul's rocking barrell-house piano style to create a fantastic hybrid. These women were incredibly great players.
Very fine and excellent musicians! 😎🌻🌼🌜
They are a real jelled group,they have been playing with each other for a while ,they’re. great 👍
