Holy shit. Even after 50 years, they still sounds amazing. Totally unreal.

[@richardfurlott4243]

Yes , they smash it out of the park !! Better then new !!!

[@daver216]

I used to deliver pizza to this little room in the back of a florists shop (circa 1968-9) in Oceanside, L.I., N Y, where the Vanilla Fudge used to practice ! Sometimes I’d walk in and they would be playing and I’d just sit and listen! Way cool! Aah the old days 😎

[@mattb4794]

Wow How lucky you were -

[@OutBoardTink62]

Hello Dave what Pizza place in Oceanside in those days did you deliver for?My Dad owned a pizza place in Oceanside in those days I worked there as a kid .I know there was a Blossom Heath Florists but dont remember where on Long Beach Road somewhere maybe by Nathans not sure. My Dads restaurant was right in front of Oceanside Junior High School. Was Cafe Maria then he sold it and it was Marios for sometime after that. Glenn P.

[@robincortez6586]

WOW!! 👍 What great memories you must have!! I love this band's version of this song, and this is my favorite video of the song. I also love their version of Bang Bang. VERY COOL!! In fact, every video performance I have seen of Vanilla Fudge is WAY COOL. They put their own unique and wonderful stamp on everything they do, and I really enjoy them. They look like they would be down to earth, cool guys, as well. ❤

[@zagfan44]

@matt stockton That would be correct. I was ridin' shotgun with Dave R that day. The Fudge preferred Italian sausage, black olives, and green peppers.

[@richardfurlott4243]

Fabulous memory ; wow !!!!

[@chiefkirk]

One of my all time favorite bands and song. Love it.

[@ralfhenke8148]

Appice kills it on those drums. Love it.

[@charlesdigennaro4981]

They just get better with age Mark still has his pipes. One of the best rock bands of all time period! RIP Tim bogert. A legend in his own right

[@josephfranzese1353]

Simply an amazing underrated rock band with classic sound. If anyone 200 years from now asks what classic rock was ...they can just listen to this performance

[@patricialambert3110]

They ALL look so good for their age--compared to the Stones, The Who, Zeppelin, KISS, and Aerosmith, bands with members of similar age. Time has been VERY good to the Fudge--especially Mark Stein! I do hope they outlast the Rolling Stones. They are a national treasure, respected by musicians all over the world!

[@robincortez6586]

Overall, I agree, but I have to take exception with one thing, in particular. I saw The Who in concert last year, and Roger Daltrey looks MIGHTY FINE to me!! 🔥🔥 I think Paul Stanley is HOT, too. I do really enjoy the music of Vanilla Fudge, and would love to see them in person some day. Their videos are SUPER COOL. ✌ I LOVE their versions of this song and Bang Bang. Are you familiar with the song, Tin Soldier, by the 60s group Small Faces?

I remember listening to Vanilla Fudge while in the Army in 1967. The song forever reminds me of that time.

One of my favorite live performances was Vanilla Fudge and Rare Earth at the beautiful state theater in Minneapolis. You could really tell they were consummate musicians who had been playing for their whole lives and still loved it.

[@1e0s]

I've only just come to realize how extraordinary Carmen Appice actually is💥

[@stanhawthorne9373]

Carmine still is one of the best drummers of all time.

[@timallbritton7329]

He did a clinic at the local music store in town when I was in high school, maybe 1974-75. Changed my life as a drummer forever. Right after he got the Ludwig Octa-Plus kit. He was so good and still is.

[@stanhawthorne9373]

Absolutely great. Love him. His harmony is good too, even still.

[@midnightrider715]

Don't forget about MR.GINGER BAKER !! 😎

[@stanhawthorne9373]

Or Jon Bonham.

[@obbor4]

Stan clearly stated: "...one of the best drummers..." There is no need to add any other names to this opinion.

[@thewordofgord]

Lovely to hear them play with such verve! Bought the first album when I was fifteen in '67.

[@creativologist1813]

In the 80s, don't recall what year, a friend's dad formed an experimental jazz fusion band. I went to one of their rehearsals. The drummer was Carmine Appice. That rehearsal was in Carmine's house on Long Island. I sat right next to him as they played. My jaw dropped and never came back up during the couple of hours I was there.

[@LarryNeie-lj7zc]

I saw Vanilla Fudge (the original band) live in Ft Worth along with Rare Earth in 1987. Bought the debut album in '67 and their 2nd album the year after. My sons age 42 and 39 are huge fans.

First concert I ever attended was these guys in St. Petersburg Florida at the Armory in 1968. I'll never forget watching Carmine bang those drums, incredible performance. I was in the 12th Grade and I had to hear this song every morning on the radio before I would leave for school.

[@DYNODRUM]

Ya , seen them too , In N.Y. opened for a couple of bands ,The Hassles [B.Joel] The Vagrants [Leslie West] "The Rascals"- headlined..Carmine was in awe of Dino as were most and to this day told Me, He's a Great Drummer.This was before J.

Stunning as always. I have been fortunate to see the Fudge several times over the years live and they truly are one of the most amazing live musicians in the history of rock and roll. I have all their lp's and never get tired of the 'heavy' sound they created. They changed music for the better and have created some timeless classics.

[@pbrackel]

Such showmen. Carmen Appice is the best hard hitting showman ever. His cymbal and artwork are tremendous. And they really kick ass with the Marshalls and Hammond.

Saw these guys several times in the 60s at the Roseland Ballroom in Massachusetts. They were just up on a riser so we heard them from about 10 feet away - practically blew my head off but I loved every minute of it.

[@AndyPanda9]

I was 13 when I bought their first album! Mark's voice sure has held up well (much better than mine has).

[@ivan-lf5ut]

Dios que delicia de música . Siguen igual q antaño . La batería q nitidez todos geniales . Como quisiera q llegaran a Perú . Al igual que Uriah Heep

[@larrymalsi3186]

Carmen Appice and Ansley Dunbar, 2 of the best drummers of the 60's,70's.

[@impalaman9707]

If you like Dunbar and Appice, then you like very hard hitting drummers, mate. Guess who else likes them (besides me, of course): Jeff Beck. He's played with both of them.

[@MusicLover-jy8bu]

sounds fantastic!

[@HughCorbyCruick]

I wonder how easy or hard it is to keep that Hammond still working, but that’s a great old school rock sound. And Carmine is still twirling his sticks like a baton master.

[@christo6765]

WOW! just listened to this again, and boy, the boys must of been putting in some OT on rehearsals! that was quite well done. (even if it has some cosmetics) i've seen em a few times over the paste few years and thats pretty much how its been going+. In a strange way i think that if they keep this up they just might get some major media attention. (they already had a spot on Fallon recently) I mean considering their historical significance and all. Sure would be nice to see them invited to perform at the Grammys. (instead of more and more of ......). If anything, the vocal harmony is sooo spot on. You should hear them do People Get Ready.

[@robertjamison1463]

I am English and a big fan since the 60's. Got into them after the Four Tops hit with this track. At that time you could go into music shops and listen to records in booths before buying. Was browsing albums one day and was looking at the album 'Vanilla Fudge'. Had never heard of them but saw this track so asked to listen to it. Loved it, best version I had heard so I bought the album. Now have a collection but sadly never seen them in a live performance.Don't think they ever came over here.
