[@gloriaertel2463]

John Denvers' voice always stands out.....Miss you so much 8/10/19

[@kirkhamilton8951]

Wow. The first time I heard John Denver, he blew me way. The first time I saw The Mitchell Trio? Well that's today. Fascinating!

[@robertpolityka8464]

John Denver wearing a suit and tie, singing the Beatles...wow!

[@nursie216]

Love this video. Hearing John Denver sing "She Loves You" is priceless. Makes me miss him that much more...Thank you for the post.

PBS introduced me to John's early life and other stuff! OMG they even tried an early Beatles tune and did it well!

[@neilmansfield8329]

This is a great video

[@MrJayjayt]

One of my favorite songs in the world!

[@Earthlinked]

It was also on the Mike Douglas Show that several years later - John Denver was introduced as Bob Denver (Gilligan)!!!!!!!!!!!

[@multicaruana]

The Mitchell Trio's version of She Loves You brings out a whole deeper, more complex and more profound psychological meaning to this song. Not to mention the harmonies and instrumentation. It is , in my opinion, the best version of this song ever recorded.

[@thomashoban6888]

Amen! If it's possible to improve on a Lennon/McCartney song, this is it.

[@thomashoban6888]

They recorded a version on Mercury Records that was orchestrated to death. I like this one, just guitars and three voices.

[@anythinglovecanbuy]

Thanks so much for sharing!! This is really rare and amazing!!

[@Pila426]

Thanks for posting this. I love their version of "She Loves You."

[@eottoe2001]

Thanks for the post. That was after '65. I didn't know that those kinds of folk groups were still going but they were.

[@thomashoban6888]

The Kingston Trio, the Limeliters, and the Brothers Four still are.

[@demef758]

@Thomas: in name only. The originals are almost all gone now. Bob Shane of the Kingston Trio is still alive as I type this, but his health is not so good. This one show was shortly before the Mitchells disintegrated, and Denver took off on his own.

[@bradentonguy50]

In terms of record sales folk was on its last legs. But there were still a lot of “folkies” (as they were called) around in 1965. Don’t forget Dylan didn’t go electric until 1966. His hardcore folkie fans went berserk. I remember it well. Sounds funny now.

[@captainnice9698]

Their version of She Loves You shows the importance of words and why important to LISTEN to them. I love "story" songs

[@TheRealFriar]

Fuckin' awesome...

[@multicaruana]

extraordinary

[@jennconducts]

Paul Prestopino on guitar!

[@RogerOoms]

[@Whirrrlpoool]

Falsetto at 4:16. He had quite a range, but stuck to simple, folksy songs.

[@ATEMPLE13]

Yes that was Eddie (i have the full show)

[@ATEMPLE13]

Will post the third song soon

[@ATEMPLE13]

will post the third song soon

[@sdingeswho]

What year is this? I am thinking ’67 or ‘68. Great clip! I knew that JD was with CMT before becoming the John we came to know later, but haven’t seen that many of his performances with them.

[@mrbeaverstate]

Was that Eddy Arnold with Mike Douglas at the beginning?

[@MI-vt2bu]

How old is this video?

[@thomashoban6888]

Denver replaced Chad in '65 and Frazier left in '66.

[@kennethpack1963]

what ever happened to mike douglas?

[@thomashoban6888]

He died.

[@SharontheRedBaron]
