"Pretty Little Angel Eyes" by Sha Na Na with Donny on lead.

back when tv shows were worth watching

[@user-zx5le1ei8f]

Sha na na was and still is my favorite band . I always fantasized being bouzer . I'm 65 years old and I will always love the oldies music .

[@Ronbo710]

Used to watch this as a young teen in the 70's with my Grandparents. And I told them I was born too late. They laughed so much. Miss you Gran and Perry

[@karenwilloughby3952]

All the way. This is my FAVORITE kind of music. My monm

[@karenwilloughby3952]

Sorry, my mom said I was born in the wrong year. This kind of music has been my favorite for over 50 years. I get cold chills just listening to the 50's and 60's music.

[@raymondortiz1113]

These guys had talent, played real music, not auto tune, or computers to mimic a song, they played on pure talent.

[@Tomes23]

Ahhh the 70s!

[@LisaKoffler]

The Disco Era! I was part of it, despite the fact that I was only a child back then!

[@12345kjelle]

They must have been the absolute best cover bands ever borned. This is magical. Such songs you cant hear any longer. Love to Sha Na Na

[@LisaKoffler]

They were, and we STILL have "oldies" radio stations!

[@wesleycook7687]

@@LisaKoffler Where? We haven't had an oldies station in years.. Wolfman Jack is gone. Casey Kasem is too. And Dick Clark was still doing until he got older..

[@LisaKoffler]

ALL 50 States have "oldies" radio stations, so you can just look it up!

Go look up Showaddywaddy's cover of this song and other songs.

There are some people I wish could stay young and vibrant forever!

So do I! "Staying young" is difficult!

[@philm.6113]

Something about the imperfect choreography actually makes it absolutely enjoyable. These guys were having so much fun. I followed them since about 1974 and I appreciate them more today than I did back then.

[@elmarko9051]

The fact that a male group did dancing and choreography, and it was still viewed as 'manly' is awesome. Other than 'boy bands', what male groups do that? Sha Na Na had it all, the vocals, talented instrumentalists, and a fun stage show. I was just a kid watching this on TV, loved the skits and the music.

[@dmelvinable]

Yeah, the jumping jacks were kind of trite, but I still appreciate them a lot more after not seeing them for decades. Also, you gotta love the one-man bass line (Bowser).

[@Tonithenightowl]

Great lead by Donnie. Great back up. Bowser and Johnny just add to it. Lenny on sax completes the magic, Great choreography. This is talent.

[@LisaKoffler]

I still remember the audience screaming!

[@tonithenightowl1836]

[@bethk3773]

This was a great CLEAN show.

[@LisaKoffler]

Just good, CLEAN fun!

[@user-lb8qd2bb1e]

I used to listen to this program when I was in high school and during the time. I was in the military I would think about them from time to time because it was a lot better than crawling around in the sand in the mud or swamps. Music what a wonderful way to be free. God bless all America and veterans.

[@barrybechtel8553]

I have seen them numerous times, and they were always great!!!!

[@andreakubis2420]

I wish these shows were still around !

boy do i miss these guys

[@LisaKoffler]

They're still around, even if there are only 3 of the originals left in the group - "Screamin'" Scott, Donny, and Jocko!

[@deborahdouville3926]

MORE SHA NA NA!!! LOVE THEM TO PIECES.

[@smeagle581]

I saw Sha Na Na 36 years ago when I was 17 at Newcastle City Hall in North East England and it was a brilliant night. The show was perfection and all the covers of the original had both great instrumentals and vocals. My favourite band members were Elliot Cahn(Gino), Donny and Johnny. Johnny in particular has an amazing vocal range.

[@LisaKoffler]

ALL of them have wonderful singing voices, and Johnny stood right out!

[@stephenpotts2820]

I was at the same show. My first gig. They were absolutely brilliant. Never bettered.

[@lesterbronson2385]

You are one lucky son of a gun. I’d give my left nut to see them when you did. Cheers mate!

[@crikker9447]

Way back in 1978 when I was 11 this was my very first Concert

[@voulafisentzidis8830]

Didn't always like the comedy skits on the show but looooooooved the music. Such a talented bunch of guys and Johnny Contardo's voice still rocks.

[@LisaKoffler]

Yes it does! I didn't like all the skits, either, but they made me laugh my head off!

[@tchr6798]

I am almost 63 years old and the NaNa of a precious 4 year old granddaughter, our only grandchild. Since her Papa and I are oldies, these are the songs that we sing to her now just as we did to her Mom. I hope that when she gets to be your age, she has such sweet memories of us as you do of your grandparents. We even took our daughter to see Sha Na Na when she was a little girl. Bless your heart.

[@lisahemingway3828]

Gotta love Bowser' deep bass voice! You go boy!

[@LisaKoffler]

Don't forget Johnny's high notes! He's older now, but he STILL has it!

[@prettykaren7326]

All of them can sing very good.

[@LisaKoffler]

That's what sets Sha Na Na apart - you have to be an outstanding singer to join the group!

[@thesmogmankills]

got to see them sing up in toronto back in 2003 they were sooooo great and even got bowzers autograph...FUN TIMES

[@spahjrp]

How can you watch these guys and just be HAPPY?

[@LisaKoffler]

How can you watch these guys and be a GROUCH?

[@jessiejames7492]

it would be nice to know if anyone filmed their rehearsals and dance moves when they practisd these weekly shows. I am sure they had great bonding as friends as well as workmates...and i am sure they had fun too.

[@CFFarm]

We use to watch this program in the 80's it was popular even though it wasn't in the doo wop day's ! They were really a lot of fun to watch!!

[@guardianangel9517]

I'm with you!!!

[@RetiredFreeBird]

i saw them twice. The first time, they warmed up for The Guess Who! That was my very first concert, August, 1975.

Scott Powell is a world-renowned orthopedic surgeon. A man of many talents.

[@daves3121]

Tony Santini? The Italian kid from Brooklyn?

[@LisaKoffler]

Tony Santini is his nickname.

[@kb6kgx]

His office is in Burbank, CA and he is team physician to the LA Galaxy Soccer Team (I think that's the name of the team), and is an expert on knee and shoulder surgical repair.

[@daveconleyportfolio5192]

Denny was a law professor. Bowser was a classically trained pianist. Lenny played with Joey Dee and the Starlighters.

[@donnyyork2149]

Joe Witkin (the original keyboard player before Scott Simon replaced him) became a physician as he'd always expected to. Most of his career was heading the emergency room at a San Diego area hospital. Bowzer's predecessor Alan Cooper became a department head at the Columbia University Jewish Theological Seminary. Bruce Clarke became a bigtime academician based at Texas Tech University. Elliot Cahn (left before the TV series as did Bruce Clarke and Rich Joffe) became a bigtime entertainment lawyer who managed the group "Green Day" for a few years. David Garrett graduated the rigorous Columbia University School of Engineering and became an electronics industry businessman. Rich Joffe practiced law in NYC for years. Denny Greene graduated Yale Law School after the TV years and ended up a law professor. "Many talents" were the norm for Columbia undergraduates, due to the college having extremely tough admissions standards. I'd been on track to become a lawyer myself, but the life of a journeyman rock star hooked me and allowed all the time that I ended up needing for marital trainwrecks. 😎

[@treasureseeker8489]

FANTASTIC THEN, AND STILL FANTASTIC NOW!!!

[@randallburgess46]

They were a major hit at Woodstock! Very talented group! 📕

[@wesleycook7687]

Bowser hadn't joined at Woodstock. Johnny either. The leads were mostly short time additions. Donny and Chico did the lead most of the time. The high notes were done by 2 different guys until Johnny came aboard. One was Henry Gross..

I'm a fan of theirs since I was 4 in 1977 and watching them EVERY time they were on TV. NOTHING got in my way haha and listened to their records all the time in my basement. And saw them multiple times live. And I eventually became close friends with Lennie Baker.

[@59cadcoupe]

[@LisaKoffler]

It's not that Donny doesn't care - he just likes having fun, and that's what I like MOST about him! I saw him in "The Stroll" video with Guerin "Tito Mambo" Barry as the lead singer. Donny was wearing a white jacket with his signature outfit and strolled with two girls instead of one!
