Airdate: February 5, 1966
Paul Revere & the Raiders’ “Steppin’ Out” only reached #46 back in October ’65, but it was the beginning of an incredible run of 7 top 20 and 4 top 10 hits from 1965-1967. In this year alone (1966) they will have 3 top 10 hits including “Kicks”, “Hungry” and “Good Thing”.
“I See The Light” is the Five Americans’ first top 40 hit. It is at #45 today and will peak at #26 in March. They will have to wait until 1967 to score their next song in the top 40 but it will be their biggest hit, “Western Union”, which peaked at #5 in 1967.
“Batman” premiered on ABC last month on Jan. 12. The t-shirt that guitarist Drake Levin is revealed to be wearing was used to promote the show. The t-shirts were also given away as prizes for today’s Rate A Record judges (“Children & Flowers/It’s A Day). The sign that Phil “Fang” Volk is holding says “BATMAN IS COMING” which was most likely used on Bandstand at an earlier taping to also promote the TV series (the sign was not used or mentioned in today’s episode). Later this year, on Nov. 2, Paul Revere & the Raiders will appear on an episode of “Batman” titled “Hizzonner the Penguin”.
Dancing on the scuffed dance floor today are regulars: Lauren Montgomery (3:07), Terry Cooksley (4:38), Debbie Sewell (4:48), Melody McMurray (5:02) and Frank Vanderpuil (5:09).
