Van Morrison is one of a kind. My name is Gloria; this is my favorite one of the multitude of Glorias out there done by others. Ireland’s gift.

Yup. And I'm an 80s baby. Barely pushing 40. My late grandmother introduced me to this song. Dancing in her kitchen with her as she cooked breakfast! Miss those days.

Dancing to this song at Mac's in Georgetown in the Summer of 1964 was awesome. The Best Ever. A packed house every weekend.

[@ModSquads]

I'm a generation after you but love the 60's music that I remember, being played, in the hollows of my mind. Was Mac's on M St. or Wisconsin? My stompin grounds in the early 80's

Originally it was their first hit, a small one in 1964, but became a smash hit in 1966 as one of their last ones with Van Morisson.

this video is from 31 january 1966, it is with another formation, if you look closely, the keyboard player that appears here (ray elliot) did not record the original version in 1964, he entered it at the end of 1965

[@bygoneyears4859]

I love the angst of Van Morrison singing voice. Priceless 60s Music. I'm a 60s baby born in '68. When I was yet unborn my mom who was a music lover listens to the music of those days frequently. When I was born from toddler to adulthood I was perplexed why I like 60s music more than any current pop music while growing up. I truly love all genre of music from the '60s. Weird eh?

[@russellsteventon8069]

Not really. I did see these guys at the local provincial Working Men's Club on their Sunday night dancehall event. How this group and many many other class acts turned out to events actually run by a Working Men's Club speaks wonders for the times we lived in, the mid sixties. Incidentally the Club has now been converted to flats.

[@merlinelmaje]

Great memories indeed

[@alanosborne1947]

I noticed the drummer was playing para-diddles to end the song. Earlier versions of the song did not have the drummer doing that. The Shadow's Of Night a local Chicago band in the 60's helped popularize their version of Gloria. They recorded a lyric revised version of Gloria which enabled the song to be played on local radio stations. Many HS garage bands mimicked their version of Gloria and not Van Morrison's version.

[@merlinelmaje]

Going back a looong time but when I was in 7th grade in OHenry Jr. High in Austin, TX, the very last day of school, 1965, they let a band set up in the cafeteria before school. I remember it was the first time I ever heard a live rock band play and this is the song I remember. It was awesome!!

[@merlinelmaje]

congrats pal 4 all of you, had that lucky times, never forget it, cuz that times made the persons we r now. and we have the mission to give that legacy to the youth.

I was 14 when this came out, had on the Here Comes the Night album. I was angry that the ones who had it hit with it were the anemic Shadows of the Night crapola band. My little rock group played this because it was a) 3 chords easy b) same progression as The Last Time c) essentially same lead for both songs and d) tune.
