The Beatles, The Stones, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, Tom Jones - BASICALLY EVERY SINGLE GROUP/ARTIST WHO WERE ALL PART OF "THE BRITISH INVASION" (ie: the music/soundtrack of the sixties and seventies - you have the man above to thank for that!!! Lonnie Donegan was responsible for the British Invasion; Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry were responsible for the American equivalent!! FACTS.) MAY ALL THREE MEN REST IN HARMONIOUS PEACE!! 🤍🌹🕊️
Just learned of Lonnie watching a Lead Belly video wherein George Harrison is quoted, "Without Lead Belly, there'd be no Lonnie Donegan; with no Lonnie, there'd be no Beatles." HTF am I just now @ age 54 yrs learning of Lonnie? He was awesome!
I was a teen in '61, living in Minneapolis. I remember hearing "Rock Island Line" on local radio back then. And THEN - "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavor On The Bedpost Overnight" exploded. Magic - I've been a fan ever since.
I have to assume my feet were moving, since my legs have no feeling from the knees down, these days. But I know my heart was beating faster! LOVE Lonnie!
I worked on several concerts over the years with Lonnie, mostly at the Chris Barber re-union tours, and was at his funeral to pay my last respects to the great man. Joe Brown did the eulogy and looking towards the coffin at the end said, " Such a small casket for such a great man ".. Just about summed him up really..
This song was part of my childhood in the mid-fifties, heard on the wireless. We had no TV and I asked my dad what Lonnie Donegan looked like. He screwed his eyes up and pulled his lips back to show his clenched teeth. I didn't believe him, but later when I saw Lonnie belting out the Rock Island Line lyrics at full pace I saw my dad was right. Still love Lonnie's version of that song. Great performer.
The reference to Dwane Eddy at 1.43 is a classic that only Guitar Players would understand, I have so enjoyed his music over the years as I have constantly discovered what he has done, he inspired so many musicians, from mark Knoefler, John Lennon to Tom Jones, a fabulous Talent, I have so much more I could say but I would just sound like a gushing Groupie
It was Roger Daltrey who said that Elvis turned everyone onto Rock and Roll but that it was Lonnie Donegan who opened it up for everyone to go out and form groups. He was a huge influence on a huge number of British bands of the late 50s and early 60s
I’m named after Lonnie Donegan!! But my mum wanted to spell it Loni! I’m so glad I’ve come across this and actually taken the time to listen to Lonnie! I absolutely love it and I’ll be listening to more!!
It’s amazing because here he is playing pure American folk blues on telly years before the stones etc “discovered” it. I think his comedy stuff did get in the way of just how revolutionary he was. I LOVED his comedy stuff as a kid, this came later 🎶👍🏼👍🏼
I have watched The Voice video of Peter Donegan with Tom Jones about 6 times, its wondeful brought tears to my eyes every time. I live in Canada now so missed it last Saturday but thank goodness for Face Book & CZcams.
Being the son of a train man, this song was a hit when I was a youngster. A ride in a '56 Buick with my teenage buddy, on the old 2-lane out to Elgin, Illinois, his Mom swaying in the back seat as we cruised across the country.
this song was big on Chicago radio around 1960. It is one that certainly shaped my life. the trains coming into Chicago were awesome. Gosh, yes! So was Lonnie Donegan.
Lonnie Donegan spread rock music into the UK/Europe, he had a huge stage presence with the relaxation to use some humour to get the message across. Thanks!
I remember it like it was yesterday, but I'd never seen him perform it. He gave it his all and made novelty songs sound great. PS If you don't know him his other big hit from the day was Does Your Chewing Gum Lose It's Flavor On The Bedpost Overnight
Im 80 now and was inspired to form a skiffle group after listing to LD. The Beatles.were also.influenced by him and many other 60s bands. Thanks to LD for bringing music to life and influencing so many. As Joe Brown said at LD's funeral, "Such a small casket to contain such a huge talent"
But! I'm 76 now, and I'd be thrilled to join @JohnRawlinsonCyprus ' new band. I always wanted to form an instrumental 'surf' music band, and call us 'The Dentures'. Can't find any personnel, tho.@@tedtimmis8135
My Grandad died a week ago yesterday, wish I knew the man better than I did but while talking to my Mum and my Nan recently and learning more, I learnt of my Grandad’s love for skiffle. I’d never heard of it, or Lonnie... I’m glad I have now. Cheers Grandad Ray, I’ll have a drink on you x
I listened to this song in 1961. I never forgot it, but then it popped up on CZcams. I see Lonnie Donegan sang it. I think it must be a different Lonnie Donegan. Nope, it's THE Lonnie Donegan.
There would be no Beatles, Stones, Zepplin, Queen, Bee Gees etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc without this man inspiring so many young British kids to pick up a guitar and make music their life...
You know, in the US, we don't even know who Lonnie Donegan is. People who are into music know his name as the guy who inspired John, Paul, and George to start a skiffle band, and that's about it. My God, I love this man. He is absolutely wonderful.
Half of America have never seen the ocean and believe in something called god! Why would they have the inclination to search out a Scottish icon? I've had to tell Pensylvanians about Johhny Appleseed. Sorry man, but America is the fattest most ignorant nation on earth. By the way, I work with a revolving door of international sportspeople. I commend you on your taste. Lonnie was from Glasgow, Scotland, like myself. Rock on. 👊
@@strexus Your ridiculous alcohol fueled insults aside, Skiffle never made it to America. We were the musical influencers at the time, rather than the influenced. Bill Haley, Little Richard, blues artists, and then came the movie, "The Girl Can't Help It", which effectively put Skiffle in the ground and replaced it with Rock N Roll. From there, British youth embraced rock, made it their own and influenced the world.
I remember learning that song in the second grade, well over 50 years ago! Of course we sang it at a much slower beat, but it was considered a classic folk song!
On this day in 1956 {May 19th} Lonnie Donegan and his Skiffle Group performed "Rock Island Line" on the NBC-TV program 'The Perry Como Show'... At the time the song was at #24 on Billboard's Top 100 chart; one month earlier on April 5th, 1956 it had peaked at #8 {for 1 week} on Billboard's Best Sellers in Stores chart and stayed on the Top 100 for 17 weeks... The group had two other records make the Top 100; "Lost John" (#58 in 1956) and "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose It's Flavor (On the Bedpost Overnight)" (#5 in 1961)... R.I.P. Mr. Donegan, born Anthony James Donegan MBE, {1931 - 2002}...
Right around this time my best friend in High School memorized this and made me sing it along ith him, Along with a few Robert Johnson tunes like Hell Hound on my TRail,
I did! I did! ✋✋! Tom is the best ever and and Lonnie's son, Peter, will b a legend in his own rite. Good advise his father gave him-to write his own music.
In 1956 or 7, I hired an old car with really bad steering (90 degress play), and after school at Melton Mowbray drove to Grantham Drill Hall, with Gerry Woodcock to see Chris Barber, and his singer wife (forget her name for the moment), Lonnie and his skiffle group played this in a spot, complete with tea-chest bass! Absolutely wonderful. Thanks for the memory.
I came here after seeing this on the BBC documentary, 12.4.19. I am old enough to remember Lonnie but strangely enough not this particular song. Cumberland Gap and Does Your Chewing Gum Lose Its Flavour On the Bedpost Overnight....I recall well. His son Peter even sounds like Lonnie when he is talking. When Peter sang with Tom Jones it was a fantastic moment, I got goosebumps on me goosebumps!!
I remember seeing Lonnie Donagan at the Liverpool Empire in the early 60s. Des O'Conner was on the same blill. Lonnie was different from the American pop music we where subjected to at that time. His music inspired a lot of people.
Stunning! Never realized a British man could sing such American music as we as any in America. He did it his way. Musical genius. He seems so nervous here. He defined British bluegrass, it seems to me, and they called it Skiffle. I have bought some CDs to listen to him in respectable sound quality. A great discovery after 45 years of loving music.
I came here because I was checking a post on social media about trains and saw the Rock Island Line. I remembered a version of this from a movie called The General's Daughter.
I was heavily influenced as a child when I was a small scout, and the Rovers, the elder brethren, (they were eighteen years old!) played skiffle behind closed doors in the HQ. Of course, I remember "Rock Island Line" but the first song that really struck me was "Midnight Special" played by a skiffle group at a church youth club party! I was hooked and I still get asked now to play the King of Skiffle
This man belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Tru' Dat!!
For sure.
Definitely
ach who cares aboiut that ...backslapping millionaires
Lonnie was famous before the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame existed
This artist, performance and TV coverage changed the world of music more than it gets recognised for. Absolutely timeless....
Couldn't get enough of Lonnie when I was a kid. He was amazing.
Even if you haven't heard of this guy, you've heard of all the musicians he inspired
True! Jimmy Page talks about him in his interview at Oxford.
Heard of him now, thanks to his son and Sir Tom Jones!
The Beatles, The Stones, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, Tom Jones - BASICALLY EVERY SINGLE GROUP/ARTIST WHO WERE ALL PART OF "THE BRITISH INVASION" (ie: the music/soundtrack of the sixties and seventies - you have the man above to thank for that!!!

I haven't listened to this in more then 20 years. Its a great record.

Me too lol
Love you Peter Donegan ❤️ you did your dad proud on the voice with Tom. It was magical. Your dad's writing is pure brilliance.
Such an intense performance from Lonnie, which was what he always gave you. If your feet aren't moving when this is playing, you're past all help. RIP
I have to assume my feet were moving, since my legs have no feeling from the knees down, these days. But I know my heart was beating faster! LOVE Lonnie!
Who came here after watching his son on the voice duet with Tom Jones ? Great magical duet they did , your dad Lonnie would be so proud 👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Just watched the Voice with Lonnie's son he is a very talented young man
That was a once in a lifetime moment on The Voice UK! I know Tom & Peter will remember it always!
Hahahaha meeeeee!!!!
I did!!!
Me
Ah, back when music had talent and personality. A true classic from a very talented guy. Impossible not to sing along to.
I worked on several concerts over the years with Lonnie, mostly at the Chris Barber re-union tours, and was at his funeral to pay my last respects to the great man. Joe Brown did the eulogy and looking towards the coffin at the end said, " Such a small casket for such a great man ".. Just about summed him up really..

@Lian Ellis asssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
My condolences on the loss of your friend
Almost every British guitar band of the 60s and 70s got into music because of Lonnie. He was king when they were growing up
and he probably admired southern blues music.
I heard he owned the Moody Blues catalog of songs.
If it wasn’t for Lonnie John Lennon would never have started the Quarrymen !
Just realized that Lonnie Donegan had so much talent and charisma! A very good story teller too!
He is incredible !! 😊😊😊😊😊😊

Great story!
We should hear more of Lonnie Donegan than we do. This is a great song.
He's long gone , but his music lives on . R.I.P. Lonnie Donegan .
This song will always be a banger
I love how the drummer Pete Appleby is feeling it as the song goes on brilliant
Lonnie deserves a lot more credit for his influence on what follows in RnR.
That line ‘I fooled you’ is the DNA of rock and roll right there - his delivery the pay off the rebellion the freedom - magical!
The reference to Dwane Eddy at 1.43 is a classic that only Guitar Players would understand, I have so enjoyed his music over the years as I have constantly discovered what he has done, he inspired so many musicians, from mark Knoefler, John Lennon to Tom Jones, a fabulous Talent, I have so much more I could say but I would just sound like a gushing Groupie

Tom Jones agrees.
The King of Skiffle!
Need I say more?
This song makes me want to start my own band too

Lonnie is pure dynamite, he rocks!!!!
Came here by accident, looking for the Johnny Cash version, but God I'm happy I found this version. What a voice.
It is crazy that I have never heard of Lonnie Donegan until today! Can't help but tap that foot.
I was today years old when I first heard of Lonnie Donegan. Wow! That is some singing!!
The sheer energy of this man just humbles me. RIP Lon.
star saw this live at the regal Gt Yarmouth

Singularly one of the most outstanding recordings ever made by Lonnie Donnegan and ever recorded in the 1960's
Sorry to be pedantic but it was 1955 😉
The guy is great. Thanks for the song.
Im 80 now and was inspired to form a skiffle group after listing to LD. The Beatles.were also.influenced by him and many other 60s bands.

Little late to be forming a skiffle group… but better late than never.
@@tedtimmis8135 My wording wasn't very good was it? Although now 80 I started a skiffle group in 1958 when I was 15.

LONNIE!! What a talent.
This was an immensely popular record and still sounds good.
The great Lonnie Donegan best Skiffle ever RIP.
Watching as a 40 years old woman in 2022 and I think this is spectacular
watching as a 17yo young man in 1972 and I think this is splendid
@@Bandstand Watching as a 13 year old in 1961, it blew me away, a little later I heard Leadbelly do it. Both are great!!
If you’re trying to trace rock and roll back to it roots you’re heading straight to two things. The Blues and Lonnie Donegan
I went to the Empire theatre in Glasgow (196?0) to watch Lonnie and today these videos have brought back some very special memories
You know, in the US, we don't even know who Lonnie Donegan is. People who are into music know his name as the guy who inspired John, Paul, and George to start a skiffle band, and that's about it.

When we all talk about h King of R&R this man is man is there.
That's true, Lonnie is one of the foundations of Rock and Roll. Heard his record on a Minneapolis, MN station as a first grader, in 1956.
I remember learning that song in the second grade, well over 50 years ago! Of course we sang it at a much slower beat, but it was considered a classic folk song!
I've heard this man's name mentioned many times, but had never listened to any of his music. What a discovery! Thanks Jimmy Page!
Listen to gambling man, , , , ,
😶😶😶😶😶😐😐😐😐
The Voice UK brought me here, his son was singing, did a good job, then he sang with Tom Jones.
OUCH!!!!!
boah... what an impressive recording. That is eight years before I am born. And is is so good even without playback.
I was a kid in grade school when I first heard this song and loved it from the beginning. Great version!

I'm a bit late with this, but wasn't Chris Barber's wife Ottilie Patterson? They came to Birmingham Jazz Club in the fifties. Wonderful times!
I died waiting for the song to start.
Came here as this was my dad's favourite song. Miss him so much and miss hearing this song. Thank you for the memory
One of if not the most important songs in british music .it all started here!

Just got up after watching it last night myself.
The Beatles admired this guy when they were struggling musicians.
So did Jimmy Page massively
And George Harrison said that it all led back to Lead Belly
Rock Island Line was 1st song wee George Harrison learnt to play on guitar.
Roger Daltrey saw Elvis, and was suitably impressed. Then, he discovered Donegan....
Count me in . . .
BRITAIN'S ANSWER TO AMERICAN ROCKABILLY!.. REST EASY LONNIE... X
I remember seeing Lonnie Donagan at the Liverpool Empire in the early 60s. Des O'Conner was on the same blill. Lonnie was different from the American pop music we where subjected to at that time. His music inspired a lot of people.
So glad this footage survives, so much footage has been wiped, lost forever.
Saw lonnie donegan and others in the summer of 55 or 56 in blackpool i was about 12
It was a good show
Unforgettable
Glasgow born Lonnie, you were the best in the world of skiffle
Need to start listening to more of him
That is frickin' brilliant!
I have known this song for all most 50 years but never saw a video of it , so for me this is Awesome
Stunning! Never realized a British man could sing such American music as we as any in America. He did it his way. Musical genius. He seems so nervous here. He defined British bluegrass, it seems to me, and they called it Skiffle. I have bought some CDs to listen to him in respectable sound quality. A great discovery after 45 years of loving music.
I'd be freaking exhausted after singing this song!
I came here because I was checking a post on social media about trains and saw the Rock Island Line. I remembered a version of this from a movie called The General's Daughter.
I was heavily influenced as a child when I was a small scout, and the Rovers, the elder brethren, (they were eighteen years old!) played skiffle behind closed doors in the HQ. Of course, I remember "Rock Island Line" but the first song that really struck me was "Midnight Special" played by a skiffle group at a church youth club party! I was hooked and I still get asked now to play the King of Skiffle
Wow! The Beginnings of British Rock n Roll, still go wild to this A big salute to Lonnie and the Band, again WOW xxx
It's great to see that young people like his music ,,it was wild then it still is ,,
Genius is a fickle thing!
Rory Gallagher mentioned Lonnie Donegan as one of his influences. That's why I'm here
Rory is a legend.
Jimmy Page, too. That's why _I'm_ here.
I grew up on many old 45's like this,this was one,I added this song to my "reportoire" many years ago
King Dynamite
Great Lonnie Donegan 👍👍
I saw him once in a club in Birkenhead circa 1975. A consumate entertainer. Greatly underated.
I had no idea he wrote this. I thought it was Johnny cash my whole life. I grew up listening to my mom and her twin sister picking this and singing.
Lonnie D. did not write this tune, it's a folk song from as far back as 1929. First recording 1934.
The best version ever
I did the exact same thing 😀 however I’m never gonna fall in love again is great favourite song of mine
It seems to me Johnny Cash must have had some admiration for Lonnie. His basic rhythm was similar to this skiffle.
Thanks I’m glad I visited.
I'm here because of his son😘
This guy is a brilliant interpreter of story and song. Such a joy to hear him. Thanks for posting.
A song written by an African American.
We saw think his last big show, with his full support band... As superb as 30/40 yrs prior...Mighty, mighty England singer/performer/musician
Another great Scottish singer
That's a banging tune ❤
Oh I wish today's music was as much fun as this.
