Bev Bivens was the voice of the original band (6+ Million KZitem views on just two vids of 'You Were on My Mind'), she quit in 1967 to live her life. At this point, it doesn't matter what 75 year old sings in a 'revival' band. The original stays on my iPod, wi/Beverly Bivens.

That's nice. I was a kid then, I thought this was another one of those 'Hootenanny' songs that were on the radio a lot in 1965 (ish). Didn't seem like that strain of music was around very long, and I grew to understand it a lot better when I was older. But I always liked this song, even then. I was them on TV singing it, and the lead singer reminded me of my teacher at school for some reason. Glad they're still at it and they really sound good, in tune and on key. More good times ahead for them.

@@LeeFred78 This is superb. They also had their road drummer, John Chambers with them. Jerry Granelli handled that role in the studio-created version. Bev is really enjoying herself and to be introduced by Fred Astaire with a snap of the fingers says it all. This is their only song that featured a drummer, btw. Is that fact just a coincidence that it was also their biggest hit?

From Google, "Jerry Burgan (born William Jerome Burgan on February 3, 1945) died on March 29, 2021, at age 76. Pete Fullerton (born Clive Avon Fullerton on February 6, 1946, in Pomona, California) died on September 28, 2021, at age 75. Beverly Bivens is the sole surviving member of the original group." Even thought they didn't quite sound the same as their original 1965 tune, it was pretty close. I still like to see the original band members performing their signature song one more time. Even though I am not a musician, I am sure it probably took them a few months of rehearsal just to get this tune presentable, remember those folks are now in their 60s at that time. Yea, I remember just a little bit of my adolescent years.
