I worn out my American eight track driving to college in 1976!!!i’m69 now and Thanks for the memories.

[@tovarisch2788]

Oh, those harmonies. I've been a big fan since 1973. Seen them countless times, through all the personnel changes. RIP Wells and Larry.

[@ParkerPlaza]

"" Dancin' InThe Moonlight"" A beautiful song.

[@sallysmith8081]

I didn't realize until recently that the King Harvest version of this song is the one we all fell in love with a few years before Orleans did it.

[@marywatkins6798]

Love King Harvest's version! 1972, I was 12. It was all over AM radio.

[@Bluman2]

Wells Kelly, Orleans' original drummer, was the brother of the guy who wrote this song and they were both in the original band that played this song and the one that made it famous.

[@sallysmith8081]

Thanks for the info, that's interesting.@@Bluman2

[@terryp79]

To marywatkins6798 Yep. Transistor radio with a 9 volt battery. With or without the earplug on a wire? Good times either way. Lived in Cleveland & listened to CKLW - The strongest station was Canadian. Lots of great music including all the MoTown songs.

[@scottm3871]

One of the most underrated groups of all time

[@helloman1976]

Some people play music, some people are born as music...in order to be able to sing like that, you have to be able to hear notes that clear as well; super singing comes with super hearing. :)

It's not really a cover. The song was first recorded by Boffalongo, of which a couple founding members of Orleans were members of.

[@marisha4sure]

Toploader had a big hit with their cover of this song.

[@marisha4sure]

The original version was recorded by King Harvest who included Sherman Kelly brother of original Orleans drummer Wells Kelly.

[@YippeeSkippie426]

Like all concert camera guys, this one is probably ticked as a wet hen because he had to focus on the bass player since he was singing. True story.

[@theglenner2606]

awesome! . . . btw . . . who's the drummer? . . . just right . . "tight" . . . drums: " are to be felt . . . not heard" .

[@iwaspaidtoflywithyoubatman]

Are these any of the original members?

[@johnstephen7610]

Yes, two of them -- John Hall (the tall guy on the left of the screen) and Lance Hoppen (on the right, playing bass guitar) are the two remaining original members. The keyboard player in the back (Lane Hoppen) was with them as early as the 1980s but wasn't an original member. Trivia note--John Hall served several terms in Congress, then returned to music.
