God bless him and you and your family. But we really do need heroes and though I liked this song I never agreed with its message. It was a cynical time, and this was a cynical message.

Wow, this really is actually live. It's great when pop culture groups like this get to show that they really could play and weren't just studio concoctions.

I have a deep respect for all the Heywoods except Bo. I met him at an airport in the late 90s and he insulted my then wife’s speech impediment. I was speechless and attributed it to jet lag, but it is still an unpleasant memory.

I loved Bo Donaldson and The Heywoods. My first concert was them and they opened for The Osmonds . I went and saw them when ever they were in Ohio and watched them when ever they were on tv. They don't make music like that and the Osmonds anymore unfortunately. I was 14 in 74

On this day in 1975 {January 4th} Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods performed "Heartbreak Kid" on the ABC-TV Saturday-afternoon program, 'American Bandstand'... One month earlier on December 8th, 1974 "Heartbreak Kid" peaked at #39 {for 1 week} on Billboard's Top 100 chart, and it spent a total of seven weeks on the Top 100... Between 1972 and 1975 the Cincinnati, Ohio sextet had five records on the Top 100 chart, one made the Top 10 and it reached #1, "Billy, Don't Be A Hero", for two weeks on June 9th, 1974... Besides "Heartbreak Kid" and "Billy, Don't Be A Hero", their three other Top 100 records were "Special Someone"* {#64 in 1972}, "Who Do You Think You Are" {#15 in 1974}, and "Our Last Song Together" {#95 in 1975}... * For "Special Someone" the Family Productions record label was simply 'The Heywoods'...

Thank you so much for posting! The other single written by Michael Price and Dan Walsh, "Deeper and Deeper", your first on ABC, is one of my all-time favorite songs by anybody, and should've been a smash. That one gets me every time!

I had so much hope for this channel to post more videos but it's been 5 years and sadly it looks like it has been retired. I will ever get to see a video to my favorite song, "Teenage Rampage", which was a big hit in my area in 1976. I got to see them at a local fair that year as well.

What the heck, I've always wanted to tell this publicly. Your first hit, "Special Someone", was a song I loved instantly. My favorite group was The Grass Roots, and that song reminded me a lot of them. In fact, it sounded quite a bit like one of their hits, "Heaven Knows", which was written by a team that wrote a lot of hits for the Roots, including "Temptation Eyes", Michael Price and Dan Walsh. Around one year later, you are signed to the same label as the Grass Roots, being produced by their producer Steve Barri, and having songs written for you by none other than... Price and Walsh! Yeah, I knew you were right where you belonged! And it was very fortuitous team-up for the Heywoods!

Loved that video. Heartbreak Kid was a great song. Too bad it didn't do that well on the charts. The "Billy" album had a ton of great songs on it but that was the only one I owned. Love "Hang Your Lamp" and many others. I wonder if the other albums are available somewhere. I have the Greatest Hits CD and is is excellent.

I have this on their Greatest Hits CD. Was this song ever on an album? I have the second album with "Billy..." and "Who Do You think You Are?" and it's very good. I was thinking about buying the first and 3rd records on Ebay since they are not available on I-tunes. Any feedback on those albums? Were there any others?
