    Who is still listening to this in 2024 ? I am for sure 💃

    I saw them at The Tottenham Royal in 1964. When they sang ‘Glad all over’ the entire audience stamped on the floor, and it was truly electrifying. They were an amazing group. 🎵🎵🎵
  • @NoosaHeads
    The cinematography quality is superb. This film is 57 years old and could have been made yesterday.
  • @Joe_Peroni
    Just as I know every lyric of every Beatles' hit from '62-'66, I know every lyric to the DC5's hits! They were a GREAT band.
  • @un2ctdawmain267
    "Glad All Over" and "Bits and Pieces" were the two songs by this band I loved. 60's music is the best!
  • @keithshaw2416
    they were a very good group. they deserve more recognition today.
  • @DavidDillon101
    Only a cynic could dislike the Dave Clark Five. After all, here was a band that played upbeat, infectious pop, and who could possibly not fall for “Because,” one of the best, most Brian Wilson-worthy love songs ever written.
  • @StephanieM772
    Wow...a lot of haters out there. The DC5 can’t possibly compare to the Beatles or many of the other British Invasion bands BUT these guys made great pop records that had a much tougher, aggressive sound than most of the other groups in the 60’s and no other group had such a huge sound in their early hits. And they sold an incredible amount of records. So, a little respect, please...
  • @anthonywalsh785
    mike smith was not just the organist as announced, but also the lead singer. the group should have been called the mike smith five.
  • @keithwatson3231
    These guys have such a huge, tight sound. Very talented. Modern performers would struggle to be this good.

    This is somehow so sweet and innocent compared to now.
  • @michaelangelo7511
    The group made great songs and the memories are with me today. I graduated trade school/ high school in 64 and this is the music of the era.
  • Great British group. Brings back so many happy memories listening to their music. It never grows old like the modern music

    I saw DC5 live at the Westchester County Center, White Plains, NY in 1964. A regional group the Pacesetters opened for them and Cousin Brucie WABC introduced them. I can’t honestly tell you if they lip synched or not instead of playing live (as they were known to do) - the screams from the audience were deafening. They made some great records and I agree with all who say Mike Smith was an underrated vocalist. Great memory.
