How Many of You Can Remember This?

[TerryMiller]

We didn't have a TV in the house until 1969, my graduating year from HS, as we couldn't afford it, so I didn't hear it firsthand.

Yo, Dennis!!!!

You didn't have radio either?

I never "saw" it either until I saw this YouTube video, but I heard it lots of times on the radio.

I remember that song well. I was fortunate to have my own transistor radio back then. My younger brother and I would listen to the Wolfman on the radio every night.

Great tune

When we lived in the Panhandle (as we did at that time), we would have to wait until late in the day for KOMA to either go directional or increase their power so we could hear them. For the life of me, I could never tell anyone who the DJ's were.

Likewise. Zenith tube radio. It's sitting in my workshop waiting for me to find a reason to fix it. The Shadows did several other pieces of music I liked, too.

While that's before I was born I know the song well. My Dad was very much a fan of music from the 50s and early to mid 60s. I heard it more times than I can count while growing up.

I don't actully remember the first time I heard it, but I was in H.S. probably riding around listening to KOMA

I hadn't thought of it in a long, long time and to be honest I had forgotten about the song, but now that you posted, yes I remember it

The Wolfman, heck yeah, lots of good memories there!

As a 14-year-old at that time, I was paying a lot of attention to music. Yes, I remember the black-and-white tv sessions (Ed Sullivan, etc), and I do remember that particular piece of music, "Apache," along with "Telstar." (My father was an electronics engineer in 1964, and all electric guitar music - and moog-synthesizer, too - really caught our attention).
