"Herman" is actually Peter Noone, now 74 years old and still going strong. He's regularly on a weekly show on Sirius XM playing the "golden oldies." And he and his wife married in 1968 and are still together. 😀
Living in Las Vegas
A bandmate thought he looked like Sherman from "Sherman and Mr. Peabody" from the Bullwinkle show, and that's where "Herman" came from.
Peter once signed a CD for me as "Peter NoOne" after we had joked around about people mispronouncing his name. He's a very outgoing guy. Definitely like fans.
@@davidschlapman9305 santa barbara
@@user-ii4zf5iq3tThe correct song title (for Jay and Amber's benefit) is "I'm Henry the Eighth" ... CZcams's autocorrect is lame.
"I'm Henry VIII I Am" was a song written over 100 years ago, but they did a classic pop version in 1965. "Mrs Brown You've Got a Very Lovely Daughter" is another iconic HH tune.
Did not know that. Thanks.
Both excellent songs!
Not only was "Mrs. Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter" a hit for Herman's Hermits, they actually made a movie based on the song which featured Peter Noone and all the members of Herman's Hermits in the film!
Is I'm Henry the Vlll I am the same one as Patrick swayze sings all night to get Whoopi Goldberg to help him in ghost?
@@sarablack2547 Yes.
I had the privilege of seeing Peter Noone, the lead singer of Herman’s Hermits and won a backstage pass to meet him. He has a great sense of humor. When I asked him to sign my CD, he drew a mustache on his face and then signed! LOL.
I've always loved Peter Noone's adorable smile. Gets me every time.
I had a boyfriend in the 60's looked exactly like Peter Noone.. adorable
I had a big crush on Peter Noone back in the day!
@@jacqualynjohnson6203 He was adorable, especially his smile. Adorably boyish.
If you sing his songs it doesn't sound writ if you don't smile
I like their song "There's A Kind of Hush" , later covered by The Carpenters.
One of my favorite songs!
A Must To Avoid gets overlooked a lot. Probably my favorite.
Herman's Hermits version was a cover. It was originally released by a group of teen/pre teen brothers from Franklin Ohio, called Gary And The Hornets. There version was titled Kind Of Hush, was a bigger hit, and got more airplay in Ohio, and Pennsylvania.
Silhouettes !!
@@patsygroves3812 I forgot about Silhouettes! I’m still going A Must to Avoid, but I do like Silhouettes.
There's something so appealing about the innocence of these 60s songs. Harkens back to a much simpler time where things weren't so complicated. Gives you such a good feeling.
Yes, like the early Beatles.
Yes. The music today is so explicit and in your face. Can't listen to it around kids. Love the music of my generation
When I first heard this as a 12 year old in 1964 my world was filled with hope.
I was 7. Same deal.
These guys had quite a few catchy hits in the bubble gum genre. The music is simple and positive with a great hook. The bands still smiled when they performed. How could you not feel better after hearing it?
This band was not bubble gum. They was part of the British Invasion of the 1960s, when many rock bands from England came onto the American music scene. Bubble gum music was produced by people who were more capitalists than musicians to focus on the money, then putting together a band to play it for the tween crowd (10 to 12 years old, extending up to about 15), such as the Archies, the Partridge Family, and The Osmonds. The Monkees started out as bubble gum (put together through ads in a local LA newspaper), but they quickly evolved into a true artistic band. This song was in the same flavor of "I want to Hold Your Hand" by the Beatles, a bit youthful on the love angle, to be sure, but created and played by real artistic musicians.
So glad you finally reacted to Herman’s Hermits. Their music was fun. Now you have to listen to “Henry the 8th”, There’s a kind of Hush, and more.
Peter Noone (Herman) still tours. I saw him a few years ago before Covid and his show was great. Very energetic.
We try to see him when he comes to Vegas. He always talks about coming up with all the other British invasion. Love the story about sitting between John Lennon and Graham Nash in a bar. None of them knew what was to come...
I can’t think about this song and not see that one scene in Ghost with Patrick Swayze singing it to Whoopi Goldberg. I laugh so hard every time I watch it.
Second verse, same as the first!
"Henry the 8th" influenced "Judy is a Punk" by the Ramones
Bubblegum drivel at bubbliest gummiest driveliest. Just stick it somewhere safe when your done.
The band's hits included: "I'm into Something Good", "Can't You Hear My Heartbeat", "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter", "Silhouettes", "Wonderful World", "I'm Henry the Eighth, I Am" (in the U.S.), "There's a Kind of Hush", "Just a Little Bit Better", "A Must to Avoid", "Listen People", "The End of the World", "Dandy", and "No Milk Today". Herman’s Hermits sold more than 60 million records and had 14 gold singles and seven gold albums. The Hermits were twice named in the U.S. trade paper Cashbox as "Entertainer of the Year".
'hush' is a song you don't hear too much these days, but is excellent!
Yes, I love "There's a Kind of Hush." It's a very sweet love song that never gets old. "I'm Henry the VIII, I Am" is funny!
I've always been a fan of "Dandy".
No Milk Today was one of my favorites along with Mrs. Brown. By the way, Patrick Swayze sang I'm Henry the 8th in Ghost.
One of the 60's British invasion bands.
"Mrs Brown, Your;ve Got a lovely Daughter" and "There's a Kind of Hush."
Y'all also need to check out another British Invasion band, Gerry and the Pacemakers and their songs, "Ferry 'Cross the Mersey," and "Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying." Two of the most beautiful songs to come out of the 60s
Gerry & the Pacemakers did a couple of great covers on albums, "Summertime" & "A Shot Of Rhythm And Blues."
Not only is Peter Noone ("Herman") still a DJ on Sirius radio's '60's station, but his daughter is also a Sirius DJ. Peter was 17 when this first hit of his came out in 1965. This song is played during a hysterical love scene montage in "Naked Gun" with Leslie Nielsen and Priscilla Presley. (Yes, youngsters, she was married to Elvis.)
Herman's Hermits were one of the few British Invasion bands that sang with a British accent. You can really hear it in Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter. The Kinks did at times too, but other bands sounded American.
And now all I can hear is Mike Meyers doing his impression of that song, "gaht ah loave lee daw ta". Forget which movie it was, or if it was SNL.
Damn...I forgot all about that song. Now you put it in my head...lol...Man, were old.
@@48mastadon ancient!!! LOL
Actually Herman is Peter Noone. He still tours on the oldies circuit. My wife and I saw him a number of years ago together with Davy Jones and Bobby Sherman.
English bands only started singing with an accent during Punk
Peter Noone, still performing today and sounds as good as he did in the 60's
He really does! It's kind of amazing.
Peter Noone is still performing. I like the fact he also does benefit concerts. Quite popular in the mid 60s. Had many good songs. Nice upbeat sound.
Back then there was no auto tune or anything like that ,it was just the natural voice so if you didn't sound good you were out ! Talent was all you needed !
True. But auto tune even today only helps to a certain degree. If too much of it is used, it sounds sterile & bad.
I'll put a plug in for another big hit from these guys, "There's a Kind of Hush" from 1967. The Carpenters did a great cover of it too in 1976.
Also, this mid-sixties sound (1964 for this song) was revived off and on in later years, particularly in the eighties with songs like "There She Goes" by the La's from 1988.
Herman's Hermits hit of KInd Of A Hush was actually another cover version.
J & A, their "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter", "There's a Kind of Hush" and "I'm Henry VIII, I Am" are next for you! edit- I have pictures of being at their concert as a child, but don't remember a thing! Lead singer is Peter Noone.
Add Sentimental Friend and you are there.
love their music
All of your suggestions are spot on,, surlechapeau!! Mrs Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter tugs on heart strings. Henry VIII is just plain fun. There's A Kind Of Hush is beautiful ❤❤❤
@@pinkstarphoenix6182 thank you! Your song comments are spot on too!
Cockeys.. I love ❤️ it.
I was 11 years old when this came out. We all had a crush on Peter Noone!
I love their "Mrs Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter".
I do too, but I like this one better.
"There's a Kind of Hush All Over the World" is another great one. I really liked Henry VIII when I was 11.
This song was written by Carol King, yes that one, and her partner at the time, Jerry Goffin. Those two wrote a bunch of hits for a lot of artists in the early 60's, mostly about budding teen romance. Another great one is "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow".
Wow I didn't know they wrote this. Add "The Locomotion" and "One Fine Day" to that list. I love Carol's own version of "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" too
I had no idea,wow. Thanks
Some more that a lot of people don't realize are Goffin-King:
Hi-De-Ho (Blood Sweat and Tears)
Don't Bring Me Down (Eric Burdon)
Pleasant Valley Sunday (Monkees)
Take Good Care Of My Baby (Bobby Vee)
Songs would be written in the USA and publisher would send them over to Denmark Street , London. Session Guys would demo on an acetate and groups managers or group members would listen and then record the ones they liked.
Carole and Gerry
Peter Noone, the lead singer, was only 15 years old when he became the frontman for Herman's Hermits.
Peter Noone (Herman) was about 16 years old when this song was released. He's 74 now and stilll performs, just as good as ever live.
Oh please react to their song Kind Of A Hush... they have so many great songs. Keep up the great music! 👍
"There's a Kind of Hush" - Herman's Hermits 1967... covered later and made popular for a second time by Karen Carpenter in 1976
He does a wonderful concert. He’s hysterical. Peter (Herman) Noone was 16 when they hit the charts.
Obviously the next logical step in this journey is "The Dave Clark Five."
I love this style of music. Thanks for this reaction.
Peter Noone and the boys are a treat.
Peace
Yes, do Dave Clark Five!!!
J/A, this song is in The Naked Gun (1988) movie, which is voted by many, one of the best comedy movies ever. Your sides will hurt from laughing so hard. Definitely should add this movie to your list for upcoming movie reactions.
Herman’s Hermits started in 1964, the originate from my home city of Manchester, England.
They are still going to this day.
I passed a favourable comment on 'Wings of Pegasus' when one of Peter's songs was being reviewed. It was a lovely surprise when he got back to me as he remembered me from school and a couple of incidents that had happened which I remembered.
It's Peter Blair Denis Bernard Noone to be exact. I've always loved Herman's Hermits and this song especially brings back a childhood memory. My father was refinishing our basement and every night after dinner he, my mother and I would spend the evening downstairs with the AM radio station on and this was one of the songs that was out at the time.
Such a classic! "There's A Kind Of Hush" "No Milk Today" "Mrs. Brown" "Silhouettes" "Can't You Hear My Heartbeat" are some others you might want to check out.
Peter still preforms, on a summer tour now. We usually see him during the winter in Fla.
A British band. I was born and raised in a small Eastern Kentucky town, and in 1964 Dick Clark came to town with a performance called the Caravan of Stars with multiple groups. Herman's Hermits was one of the groups. I was 11 years old and showed up at the back door of the gym where they were performing. Someone let me come inside for free, and I got to see Herman's Hermits. Loved that day!!!
@@eremiasranwolf3513 Pikeville, Kentucky
Loved their music, but one big obstacle for me in the 1960s was my father! He would not let us (even my Mother, his wife!) listen to HHs or any contemporary bands ( Beatles, Stones, Elvis Presley, even Tom Jones). Soo glad to have defied him ;-) and enjoyed all the 60s+ bands/singers--'Hey Hey, We're the Monkeys'. Now I'm a dedicated hard rock fan--- Sorry, Dad ;-) lol. Thanks, RSR for listening and reacting to these tunes!
What a throwback! Always loved his sharp, crystal clear voice.
I remember as a kid , my very first record I ever bought with my own money was a 45 of "There's a Kind of Hush" Always loved this band. I got the opportunity to see him perform live a few years ago at a local county fair. At his age he still has his distinctive voice and a head full of hair.
Mine was “Poor Side of Town” by Johnny Rivers .
My 2 older sisters talked me into it !😀
I'll second "Classical Gas" as another tune--it's an instrumental, but a masterpiece.
Written by Mason Williams who was a musician supporting the Smothers Brothers. Tommy Smothers didn’t think it was a very good song and ended up being totally wrong.
"Mrs Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter" and " No Milk Today" are two of my favourite Herman's Hermits songs.
I have loved Herman's Hermits since I was a teenager in the 1980's and drove in a beat-up old station wagon with nothing but an AM-radio. The only "good" radio station I could pick up on that radio was a "classic oldies" station which played songs from the 1950's & 60's all day - so I got to listen to and learned to appreciate all those "classic oldies"
They're a GREAT "feel good" band that I still listen to and it brightens my mood
"Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter" is their best song, and was a big hit.
czcams.com/video/CopTkA-t6Kk/video.html
I agree! 😀
The song "Mrs Brown You're Got A Lovely Daughter" was written by the late Trevor Peacock. Best known as Jim Trott in the TV series "The Vicar Of Dibley" " Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes...ah no"
Saw this band live, in a park, sitting on a blanket. Four bands total that day. Herman's Hermits, the Kingsman ("Louis louis"), the Turtles ("Happy Together"), and Paul Revere and the Raiders ("Indian Reservation").
I believe Herman's Hermits does a tune called "Henry the VIII I am". That is my favorite tune by them. Their biggest tune was probably "There's a kind of Hush"
This was written by the legendary songwriting team Gerry Goffin and Carol King and was, incredibly, their only UK Number One single.
I've been to 3 of his concert in the last few years and he is still full of energy and his voice is still good. My favorite is "No Milk Today."
Great British band as so many are .....loved all their hits takes me back to my young days xx
In fact I just saw him in concert 2 weeks ago..still a doll!
Silhouettes on the Shades…Henry the Eighth..Mrs Brown,You’ve Got a Lively Daughter…so many great ones. He had an innocence about him!
I'm into Something Good was Herman's Hermits first hit in the USA.in 1964 It reached number 13 on Billboard singles charts, and went to #1 in England.
It and Just A Little Bit Better (1965) are my favorite Hermania hits. There biggest hits were remakes of Silhouettes and Can't You Hear My Heart Beat and Henry The VIII I AM, all three from 1965. Dandy (written by Ray Davies of the Kinks) was their big 1966 hit. There's a KInd of Hush from 1967 was big as well.
1965 was their peak, They outsold both the Beatles and the Rolling Stones that year,
Oops! I forgot Mrs. Brown, You've Got A Lovely Daughter from 1965 as well!
HH is part of the original British invasion groups of the 60s. Check out the Dave Clark 5 another similar group
Because" and "Glad all over are great songs to check out!
I might do Glad All Over at karaoke tonight lol
@@dustywaynemusic6297 Go for it!
I saw HH at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto in (I believe)1965. Their warm-up band was another British group called The Who. Not a bad show for about $5.00!
@@TBSinc Hey, I saw the Beatles there in 1965. We were both lucky!
@@jgriffin282 Me "two" (2 times) and the Stones.
So wonderful to hear this again. The 60's had such great British bands which we all loved.
I met Peter Noone in 1996 at a New Year's Eve party on the East Side of Manhattan. They told me ahead of time that he was going to be there and so I took it upon myself to buy a CD copy of *Herman's Hermits* Greatest Hits and brought it with me for him to sign. He was low-key and gentlemanly. Very nice guy.
Guys these guys formed in like 63 or 64. Peter Noone the lead singer was 15 when they started up. He was already an actor at the time. The band made a few movies too. This band was part of the big British Invasion of the 60s. For more, try There's a kind of hush, or Mrs Brown you've got a lovely daughter, or Henry the 8th. Peter is in his 70s and still performing. I think his daughter is part of his show now too.
Great choice. This was actually their debut single, in 1964. It hit #1 in the UK. They had two #1 hits in the US, both classics - "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter", and "I'm Henry VIII, I Am". Another great Hermits tune is "There's a Kind of Hush". They were part of the British invasion of the 60s that The Beatles' spearheaded. Peter Noone is the lead singer.
Peter is such a baby here! :)
Peter noon, the lead singer was probably only around 16 when he sang this song. Back in the early 60s my mom and dad couldn't stand the British invasion, but my mom fell in love with cute little "Herman." I saw him a few years ago in a small concert venue, and he was great, still a lot of energy and fun.
I am English and drove mum and dad mad listening to this repeatedly when i was 14 on my record player. Just loved them❤️ ❤❤❤P.S i am 71 years old now xx
I believe Peter was just 15 when this song came out.
My favorites from them were 'Mrs. Brown, You Have a Lovely Daughter' and 'Henry the 8th.' They were very popular!
Leaning on a Lamppost was my fave song by then when I was younger. I loved singing along to it really fast. Now, my fave is This Door Swings Both Ways, and my mum is all over It's a Kind of Hush.
Peter Noone sounds exactly the same these days too. He's got so much energy and charisma on stage.
Another sweet song written by Carole King & Gerry Goffin. Amazing to think how young the band was when they recorded this (July 1964). Peter Noone was just 16. Keith Hopwood, rhythm guitar, 17. Karl Green, bass, almost 17. Barry Whitwam, drums, 18. Derek Leckenby, lead guitar, the old man, at 21.
I wish they made music like this now.
I know, right? Recording artists had great voices and were musicians.
Both are very optional these days.
My first concert was Herman's Hermits. 8th grade.I like to think of this as a rock and roll band even parents approved of. My father was a cop and the father of the friend I went with was a minister. It was the first time we were allowed to go somewhere at night unchaperoned.
Amidst all the rockers and the heartthrobs was Peter Noone and Herman's Hermits. Innocence and pure sweetness. You can imagine them playing at a school disco.
Always loved this song; still do. It's got a nice bouncy melody, beautiful harmonies, and lovely lyrics of young love. It's full of optimism, happiness, and joy.
I'm 68 but Peter was my teen idol for years!
His poster hung over my bed. I'm 68 now also, but a diehard Noonatic !
I'm Into Something Good...was written by (then) Husband/Wife songwriting team, Gerry Goffin and Carole King. Amber mentioned she heard a Beach Boys influence, King, herself, responsible for the melody, said that she was inspired by Brian Wilson's sound. There is no "Herman", the lead singer is Peter Noone, and he is still active in entertainment in 2022, at age 74. This was another early British Invasion group, like the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Dave Clark 5, and the Zombies.
"I'm leaning on the lampost" by Herman's Hermits was my FAVOURITE song when I was 4 - 5 years old.
Early origins of Leaning on a Lampost :
czcams.com/video/vEymZ3rXOmc/video.html
It was the 1st hit for the group. It was 1964 & it was written by Gerry Goffin & Carole King. Peter Noone was the lead singer & he was just 17 at the time.
One of my favorite Herman’s Hermits songs.
Peter Noone is great. I have seen him in concert and have talked with him on Instagram before. He is such a nice guy who still tours all of the time!
Herman's Hermits are my second fave group after the Beatles. Peter Noone (Herman) is still preforming. I have autographs and all the albums. Got to see him a few months and performs amazingly well ! Look for him live on CZcams as well.
Herman's Hermits, a very talented British invasion group from Manchester in the 60's. One of my favorite songs of theirs is "Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter"...
Peter (lead singer) was actually blond. They wanted him to dye his hair darker due to the "Beetle Invasion" and all of the other English groups. I haven't heard this song for a long time. Thanks, made me smile!
Herman's Hermits were part of what was known as the 'British Invasion' back in 1964 along with The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Dave Clark Five, among others. It was quite a phenomenon but only The Beatles and The Stones proved to have staying power.
That's because the Beatles, and Stones, actually mastered their instruments. Most bands back then were barely out of the garage, and weren't allowed, by their record companies, to play on their records. Studio musicians, did the playing (even the Beach Boys) !
@@ramblerdave1339 the Wrecking Crew!
@@ChristChickAutistic And the Swampers, of Muscle Shoals.
Let's not forget The Kinks, The Moody Blues and The Hollies, all still going!
My dad was stationed at the US Navy base in Scotland in the early 60's. Peter Noone has a roll on the longest running British soap opera, Coronation Street which started in 1960 and is still running. He played the "cheeky" grocery delivery boy. I had such a crush on him. Then came Herman's Hermits...still have a crush. :)
A very fun group from when I was a kid. I just saw them on a PBS special. They did Henry the 8th, which is really a simple song, but we sang it all the time as kids.The audience went crazy.
Formed in Manchester in 1964 birth place of The Gibbs and Davy Jones of The Monkees. He was 17 when the band started his name is Peter Noone but because of his similarity to a popular tv cartoon character at the time the band became Herman’s Hermits. I actually saw them perform October 1986 in Mobile opening along with Gary Puckett and the Union Gap for the Monkees 20 th anniversary tour. You should do Mrs. Brown, Henry the Eighth, There’s a Kind of Hush,No Milk Today, Listen People. Great pop group from the British Invasion immensely talented.
I saw that tour in Jackson Mississippi lol, it was a really good show.
I believe the cartoon character was actually named "Sherman" on the "Bullwinkle" cartoon. Am I right?
@@edprzydatek8398 Sherman and Mr. Peabody
Fun song!! Try Mason Williams “Classical Gas” from 1968!!🤘🔥
then go and watch the version by aussie guitar virtuoso, Tommy Emmanuel... it'll blow your mind... 🤯
I love Peter Noone. He's so energetic, nice, funny and a great performer. Love all their songs. Please play more!!!
I had a crush on Peter Noone. It helped that my maiden name is Herman! And I got called Herman's Hermit all the time. It was a fun time to be a teenager. The "one night stand" in the song meant one date, not what a one night stand means now. Thanks again for another walk down the lane!
Well ... a 'one-night stand' meant then what it means now - just not in this song ... !
The songs I remember most from Herman's Hermits when I was a kid in the 60s were 'There's a Kind of Hush', 'Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter' and I'm Henry the Eighth (VIII) I Am. Another old 'group' I don't believe you've touched on yet that were really popular in the late 50s & early 60s is the Everly brothers. Their songs 'Wake Up Little Suzi', Cathy's Clown', 'All I Have to Do is Dream', and 'Til I Kissed You' just to name a few. Oh and they also did 'Love Hurts' which you covered but not by them.. you did the Nazareth version from the 70s. And speaking of Nazareth.. you really should get back to them again.. possibly their songs 'Razamanaz', 'Holy Roller', 'Shanghai'd in Shanghai', 'Broken Down Angel', 'Woke Up This Morning', 'Hair of the Dog', 'This Flight Tonight', 'Turn On Your Receiver', etc., etc. 😀
Amber, still waiting for you to react to Scott McKenzie’s “San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Flowers In Your Hair)” your hippie soul will thank you. It’s the unofficial (yet official) anthem of the 60’s counter culture era ☮️🌼
My grandmother, in her late seventies at the time, loved that song, and assumed it was an old tradition, to wear flowers your hair, in S.F. 🤭
Ivanka is lucky she can fall back on Jared's family's money, she'll probably be disinherited. 🤔
Lead singer Peter Noone often pops in live on Facebook. He either talks from his dressing room or the wings right before going onstage for a show (sometimes he even brings his phone onstage to continue the stream so you can hear a song or two live from the stage!) or from his home as his his signing autographed photos or albums for shipping out. BTW - This song was written by Carole King.
Peter Noone is still doing Concerts! He is also one of the DJ’s on Siri’s 60’s channel. And his daughter does too! Peter Noone is the lead singer (Herman). Another group from England back in the 60’s!
So glad you finally got to the Herman's Hermits. You gotta do "I'm Henry the 8th". by them. That is an iconic tune from the era
What a blast from the past! Peter Noone aka Herman was my first crush. I saw them a few years ago and it was an absolute blast. Check out a more recent live video. It looks like an octogenarian aerobics class. Beautiful stuff. Music is eternal ✌️❤️
I love Peter Noone and Herman’s Hermits! He’s still touring and doing great. Really nice guy too!
The singer's name is Peter Noone. Got to see Herman's Hermits along with headliners the Monkees, the Grass Roots and Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. Really fun show.
"No Milk Today"--the B side to "Kind of Hush"--is the BEST of their songs. Listen to it and you will agree
Gouldman the writer has done a couple of versions of that, one recent lockdown one and one on Jools Holland from memory
No Milk Today is a stunning piece.
My favourite Herman's Hermits song is: My Sentimental Friend. A more meaningful lyric than some of the earlier songs.
Not one of their better known songs, unfortunately, but it was my favorite, too.
This song, written by Carole King and Jerry Goffin, was first done by Earl-Jean, a former member of the girl group the Cookies, in 1964. The Cookies had a few hits, including "Chains," covered by the Beatles, and "Don't Say Nothin' Bad About My Baby"
Herman's Hermits have a lot of very good songs. One of my favorites is "Listen People."
Herman's Hermits were a huge British invasion group from the mid-'60's. You might want to check out "A Must to Avoid", "No Milk Today" and "Can't You Hear my Heartbeat?" Perfect British rock!
Rob, you mentioned Bill Haley and his comets at the beginning. You need to react to Bill Haley & his Comets - "Hot Dog, Buddy, Buddy" - from "Don't Knock The Rock" - HQ 1956"
It's a great video, and performance.
Yes! This Bill Haley video is awesome! Be sure and play the one uploaded by Carlafong69. It's definitely the best quality
Oh hell yeah., Do that one!! That's a great video for _several reasons!_ 😁
The band's name came from a resemblance, noted by a publican in Manchester, England, between Peter Noone (the lead singer) and Sherman from the Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons. Sherman was shortened to Herman and then became Herman and His Hermits, which was soon shortened to Herman's Hermits.
Peter is still touring and does over 100 shows a year. The Hermits actually outsold the Beatles in 1965. They got the artist of the year from CASH BOX . They had 2
#1's and 11 other top ten hits plus they had many separate songs that were hits in the UK but not in
North America. Their opening acts were groups like The Who and The Rolling Stones.
A couple of friends have been touring with him for years. He's a good guy.
Another great song from Herman's Hermits, Mrs Brown you've got a lovely daughter.
I grew up with Herman's Hermits as part of the mix...this tune, *Henry the Eighth* (my personal favorite) and *Mrs Brown, You've Got A Lovely Daughter* are what come to mind but there must be others...
Herman's Hermits are like comfort food, tasty and familiar...
Thanks

The lead singer is actually Peter Noone. This song is from 1964. To give you perspective, HH lost the Grammy for Best New Artist to - Tom Jones. Other HH songs: "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter"; "I'm Henry the Eighth, I Am"; "(She's) A Must To Avoid"; "There's A Kind Of Hush".
