If they rocked a little bit harder, and wrote their own songs, they might have been a truly influential group. They were a power trio (guitar, bass and drums), which was a pretty new concept to music when they started in 1965. Unfortunately, they were controlled by the bosses at Reprise Records, who did not let them get a sound away from light pop. Thus, their talents weren't fully realized. So, by 1966-67 the psychedelic sounds of Cream and the Jimi Hendrix Experience took over. And DD&B faded away. However, it's great to see this video of the trio in their prime.

Desi Jr. was the best looking of the three. There should have been more face shots of him. That said, it was Dean Martin's show!

[@maryellenmacioge7609]

D B no he was cute but Dino was gorgeous, look up some of his pics😔

[@briancollins5117]

He didn't age too well tho

[@Cristine-mb4fr]

Great to actually know what the words are they’re singing.

[@jeanbaumgartner4052]

Desi Arnaz,Jr. Is Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz,Sr. Son and his older sister is actress Lucy Arnaz!

RIP Dino and Billy.

Three cute guys. ❤

Lipsync was HUGE in the 60's, 70's, 80's.. Milli Vanilli got slammed for it. Not sure why everyone else gets a free pass. haha

[@reneecarter6702]

Rest in peace CPT Martin 💔

[@tipakongphan3250]

Wow! look​ at​ big​ bow tie on​ Dino🤩

[@jeanbaumgartner4052]

Desi Arnaz,Jr. Is The one who is playing the 🥁 🪘 🛢!

[@keithhayes844]

Young Dino is really doing his best Paul McCartney here, right down to the Hofner bass. Even trying to cop Paul’s moves

[@cathyhorn963]

Thank you for pointing that out… I have spent almost a lifetime explaining the difference between “live” and “mugging”…”lip syncing “.

[@jonathanchartrand3351]

Wow, recording technology was awesome back then, they didn't even need microphones to sing in and yet it sounded just like the record.

[@tomgoduto3943]

Jonathan Chartrand smart ass

[@barry393]

Nice job by The Wrecking Crew.

[@jackanthony976]

Most groups sounded just like the record back then because they used very few digital enhancements on the recording. Now the computer and several digital enhancement make the singers sound much better than they actually are. That is why singers today often don't like to sing live.

[@jonathanchartrand3351]

@@jackanthony976 Most singers today can't sing, but what I'm confused about is how that group was able to sing without using microphones.

[@brianpendergrass3213]

Jonathan Chartrand Lip syncing to a recording....the guitar and bass aren’t plugged in to any amps either,no cords

[@andrewklados4096]

What a great sound when music was really music and made you feel good

[@stephaniedaniels8607]

My first record as a teenager! ❤❤❤

[@chaschk2]

I had a huge crush on Dino in the 60s.

[@funeralangel8262]

❓Which one ?

[@countdown2xstacy]

Funeral Angel I was thinking the same thing. I know Desi Jr is playing the drums though

[@paulmccartney6386]

What a great bass player !!!!! LOL!!!! Didn't know they had invisible mics in the 60's!!!!!

[@y1y1y1y1y1y1yable]

I would lust after even cheap sears catalogue guitars that I never could afford. These dudes had the whole thing set up and given to them! The best of everything and appeared on Ed Sullivan! Not because of pure talent. Rich and famous Hollywood families pushed and financed the whole show for their early teen kids……while many REAL musicians struggled.

[@crabbypanda]

That didn't sound bitter at all.

[@robyncopeland6567]

Remember wrote to Dino and he send a written letter back, with a photo

[@142horizon]

Back in the days when they could sound like 20 people - even tho there was only 3 of them - and they didn't even have to be plugged into amps or sing thru microphones... And, a mediocre song could Still be referred to as - Their Latest Smash Hit Single!! . . . . . Now THAT is talent!

[@MikeMc442]

Nice harmonies; you guys had evolved towards Assocation-style "sunshine pop.: That single deserved a better fate.

[@pamelahsmithsmith2366]

I saw them back in the 60s when they were touring with "Dick Clark Caravan of Stars".

[@Opnwindo]

My god....no wonder I could not remember any song they they did ...

[@shawnanderson5976]

DESI arnez Jr one of my favorites loved watching heres Lucy to see him

[@rickcamp8487]

I wondered if anyone even remembered these guys!

[@hardinFrisco]

Was this the son that was killed in his fighter plane
