Aug 17 1968 — SHOUT by Joey Dee & The Starliters • American Bandstand Anniversary 11

New AB clip — Aug 17 1968. Obscure pick, American Bandstand music segment with a throwback track for the 11th anniversary special — 1961's version of "SHOUT" by Joey Dee & The Starliters. An exciting version of "Shout," different from the original by The Isley Brothers. Bit of fast-paced fun. Joey Dee & The Starliters were part of the rock dance craze of 1961.

Plus more footage from the special Anniversary episode and a commercial. Cool to see what was happening in '68. looking back to the late 50s & early 60s.

From Songfacts: "The Isley Brothers wrote this on the spur of the moment at a Washington, DC, concert in mid-1959. As they performed Jackie Wilson's "Lonely Teardrops," Ronald Isley ad-libbed, "WELLLLLLLLLLL... you know you make me want to SHOUT" and Rudy and O'Kelly joined in on the improvisation. The audience went wild and afterwards, RCA executive Howard Bloom suggested putting it out as their first RCA single. This evolved out of the call-and-response style The Isleys grew up singing in church."
