Where the Action Is 1965 - The Action Kids - A Taste of Honey, Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass

[@alanmorse6407]

Herb had it going on in the 60's! 👍

[@elliothagen9874]

Yes he did

[@craterous]

I feel so nostalgic - it is almost painful.

[@susanphillips7801]

Aaron, congratulations on 5 years! Thanks for bringing so much joy by allowing us to relive such great memories. You truly are keeping the spirit of the 60's alive. Sending my love and thanks!

[@bobhulligan8662]

Two of the prettiest girls to have every graced television, Jerilyn and Joy!!!

Thx for the good vibes - we were all so young & pretty - was great to grow up in that era 🤟🏄‍♂️😉😎

As long as you were not being sent over to Vietnam, I was a lad of only 3 in 1965, but my brother would be sent there in 1967-68

[@gregmoore7709]

Absolutely Aaron , but your the one i look forward to thanking. Your YCDT channel has given me the pleasure of great memories.I always look forward to your little show. It really does help a bad day .Thank you again for your work and time.

[@hart60]

Just great😢😮😅 I have watched this several times. It has a mythical meaning to me now. In the fog of the bridge as the cars disappear, so do those of us that lived during this time and enjoyed the music. The grayness of the film makes it somber but the Action Kids just keep dancing into the eternal mist and we with them:)

[@colleenh7989]

Beautifully said, and I agree.

[@annahshoffner1871]

1st grade for me and I Always LOVED This song.

[@daisydukes8252]

Would have been 1st grade for me too but I refused to go, lol! I went to kindergarten instead.

[@judd442009]

Thanks again to Uncle George for sharing from the vault another classic WTAI video featuring the show's dancers and the Herb Alpert hit.

[@billritter4213]

Happy 5th anniversary YCDTI! One of my all time favorites of Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass. And again thanks to Uncle George, wherever you are for, for this rare gem. I have learned a lot from watching this channel and reading the comments including some good stuff on the artist, the show itself, even the dancers and their insight. Although I am a bit partial to the Cali years (including getting hooked on AB reruns when VH1 was airing them), I liked some of the Philly clips as well. Here's to another 5 years. Oh, since the traditional 5th anniversary gift is wood and the modern 5th anniversary gift is silverware, it's best that I will send you a box of toothpicks and a package of KFC sporks, postage due. Lol. Take care!

no one in the vehicles knew anyone was there nor did they know they would be immortalized in this video 57+ years later.

[@daisydukes8252]

They couldn’t see the dancers? I was looking at the vehicles going by.

Great choreography! Happy Fifth Anniversary to You Can Dance To It!! As one of my personal favorite KZbin channels, it has been a delightful time capsule into '60s music and pop culture. 😎

[@tominnc315]

One of the many great 60s instrumentals! Herb had many

[@thefirstMrsLankton]

I really like where the action is I wish they would put it back on my favorite dancer is Jerry Lynn Stapleton in this video with a ponytail and a bow on top of her head❤❤❤

[@kevingoins9858]

Five years strong!! Kudos!

[@oldiesgeek454]

Thanks to both Uncle George and Aaron for yet another lost gem clip. I'm curious to know where this was filmed. Just yesterday, I was humming this very song as I was working in the kitchen... What a coincidence huh? Thanks for 5 great years, and hopefully they'll be another 5 years to come! 😀👍

[@jameskinkland3215]

Sure looks like the south end of the Golden Gate Bridge. Typical cool morning fog. Need to wear sweats. San Francisco.

[@AmericanBandstandAgain]

Congrats on your big Anniversary Aaron, and kudos to you for all you do. As always I enjoy your videos, and certainly this one was no exception. I so remember this Herb Alpert classic from my youth.

[@jthyme7940]

Another gem! Thanks for posting it, Aron, and congrats on the 5 year anniversary!

[@YCDTI]

Thank you Gary! Here’s to another 5 (?) 😄

[@Music4allofU]

Amusing! Great Herb Albert track.

[@keithidota]

Happy 5 years on YT Aaron and here's wishing you 50 more, at least. I see the folks at WTAI spared no expense with the costumes, props and location filming. I wonder if Jerilyn and Joy won Emmys for their acting here.

[@YCDTI]

Pete Menafee will sometimes comment about these clips on the Action Kids Facebook page. He confirms that it was a very limited budget for sure. In that “Third Man Theme” clip, for example, he said those costumes were just their white outfits with black tape stuck on them. I’d like to see what he says about this one. Thanks Keith!

[@jeremynv89523]

​@YCDTI he thinks the dance number was lame. To shed some light on that, the number was choreographed by a man who'd not had any professional dance training, merely a stint as a club dancer.

[@jackeppington6488]

Thanks so much, Aaron. Happy 5th Anniversary! (And very cool that everybody got credited! Paperwork survives!)

[@luiscalcano4359]

Interesting in that USA troops of the 1st Cav Airmobile Div. encountered a big battle w NVA regulars on the Battle of Is Dang Valley about this time on 11/1965 in SouthVietnams Central Highlands, and my friends bro was drafted , and sent to SoithVietnam around early 10/1965 w the Big Red 1 1st ID near the Saigon Iron Triangle area , at 19 yrs. Of age.

[@pammiller942]

Jerry Lynn Stapleton in this video with the best dancer on where the action is I loved her and she she was very good❤

[@allenmurray7893]

I thought her name was Jerilyn Fraser, but no matter. I had a crush on her too, as well as the other girls.

[@dancerdon9175]

Aaron your descriptor says it all. Happy 5th Anniversary! Ahh, the memories and stories shared by your subscribers are genuine. The choice to keep the exclamation mark ❗️ is absolutely fitting for the YCDTi! Channel. We all thank you for these timeless uploads. 🎶

[@YCDTI]

Thank you Don! This has been such a treat during some dark times.

[@onlyonemgpatch9612]

I remember this tune growing up. One of my favorites! It is amazing how there was another world existing while I was just a kid. These dancers being filmed while life went about them. Had to be exciting for them. Thank you Aaron ❤

Herb Albert. Talented musician- Tijuana Brass. Smart businessman - A&M Records. One lucky guy- married to the lovely and talented Lani Hall. Aaron I can relate about the exclamation mark at the end as you can see from my name. I also question my choice especially putting a space in between- duh! Congratulations on the sucess of this channel. Thank you for it I personally watch at least three different of your videos everyday so that is multiple times for each. I am surprised to learn you have 300 videos. I think I must be missing some unless they were taken down. Also, thanks Uncle George too!

[@greenwitch9836]

Hi from Australia. I just found your channel - loving it - colour of my life from 60's and 70's. Great work. Just wondering if you might have in your archives the episode from later in 1971 of the "16" magazine contest? The judges included Rick Ely and Susan Dey. Just wondering ... Thank you so much for the memories - I'm gradually going through all your vids. ❤

It’s unusual but that kind of makes it great.

[@jthyme7940]

Can anyone confirm that's the Golden Gate Bridge in the background?

[@YCDTI]

I guarantee someone will be able to confirm if it is. This is a very sharp group 👍

[@JonathanMcKey]

Doesn't look like it. The Golden Gate Bridge has those giant walls of 'gates' on either side, those poles are for street lights. Also, it is much longer than that bridge in the video.

[@JonathanMcKey]

Never mind what I said. I downloaded the video and boosted the brightness, it actually does have those gates in the far background, and it is quite long now that I can see it with the picture bright.

[@glorioskey]

Yes, it's Marin side

[@randycreek9634]

Yes it the north side

[@eduardohowcomedf6971]

on this video while dancing I pretty sure no one has noticed slight dancing on recording mistake captured for ever on this video . Want to see for your self ? oK on time 1:10 keep your eyes on the #2 girl rite when music slowly ends and video screen starts to fade away end you can see #2 girl moves to her right and shows how she was exhausted covered her face as tired . I'm not by any means sharing this for judging in negative dance on #2 girl only a whoopsie Daisy mistake on camera guy . Simply a share whoopsie Daisy on 60s 👉❤️🌍😸

There was major bad air pollution back then (northern NJ, Wilmington Delaware etc) but not here. This is chunky fog at the Golden Gate Bridge. Typical summer morning.

[@j.adanpena6091]

Jerylin Stapleton aquí es igualitica a Gigiola Cinquetti. No había visto con detalle este magnífico video del pop de los sesentas; mucho pero mucho sonó esta canción pero nunca vimos este espectacular vídeo pues porque no lo podían transmitir, que tampoco sabía yo cómo se llamaba la canción; solo la escuchábamos en las emisoras de radio juveniles de la época sobre todo en los programas de música nocturna para estudiar, en onda larga: (Emisora básica Nuevo Mundo principal de la cadena radial colombiana (Caracol), Radiodifusora Nacional de Colombia, y en las escuelas radiales de Radio Sutatenza, etc.); y también la escuchábamos en onda corta: (Radio Francia internacional desde París, la Deutsche Welle desde Berlín y la Voz de América desde Washington) y con el comienzo de las producciones y transmisiones de televisión en blanco y negro, sonaba como cortinilla de muchos programas que transmitía el Instituto Nacional de radio y televisión de Colombia (Inravisión). Felicidades por tu primer exitosísimo quinquenio y espero que sean después muchos decenios, centenios y milenios más, abrazos desde Bogotá, D. C. Colombia, toma tu like y ya me suscribí,👌👊😉 Lindo video, linda canción, lindos los actores.

I believe everybody in the band they weren't Mexican I believe they were Italian not Herb Albert I'm pretty sure correct me if I'm wrong?,🤔

[@joantrezza]

Herb Alpert was born and raised in Los Angeles Ca.The band members were Italian Americans.The guys all had dark hair and complexions,so it was thought they were Latinos.BTW,most of Herb's musicians were studio musicians on his albums.
