Spooky and Stormy are excellent songs, perfect produced and performed. Never get tired of these tunes.

On March 25, 2007 a benefit was set up to help Dennis Yost with rising hospital bills from his fall down a staircase, in a small arena called Rhino's Live in Cincinnati. Many stars of the rock 'n' roll/pop music (Bowser of Sha Na Na was as host and entertainers included Chuck Negron of 3 Dog Night, Mark Volman of the Turtles, Denny Laine of The Moody Blue and Paul McCartney and Wings, Ian Mitchell of the Bay City Rollers, The Robby Campbell Trio, Pat Upton of Spiral Staircase, The Skyliners, Dave Somerville (lead singer of the Diamonds), Carl Dobson, Jr., Troy Shondell and others. A video was taken of the entire concert, but has disappeared and hasn't been seen publicly. It would be wonderful if that concert's video could be found. Since then, Dennis Yost named Tom Garrett to take over lead singer for the band and with a totally new crew they now keep the Classics IV music alive as they tour the U.S. even today.

You have to give them credit for having three singles that were million sellers and massive airplay. I forgot that Santana did a great rendition of Stormy. Thanks for the memories with this one.

Great work here! Thank you!!! We loved this band in the '60s. I took up the Alto Sax in grade school and my Dad hoped tunes from this band would inspire me. They did but after 3 years, i quit. I wanted to play guitar since forever. Did and still do. Rock on!

Love The Classics IV. I had the 45 rpm record “Spooky” in my collection and a couple of friends wanted to trade me 2 of their records for Spooky and I refused to do it. Glad to see that KZitem is still keeping their music alive. . 🙏❤🎼🎤

Can you please make one of these for the band It's a Beautiful Day? I've always wanted to know exactly why that band didn't make it. That would be a sweet video man especially considering David Laflammes recent passing. Take care! 🤘

I love your channel! May I make a suggestion? Get a pop filter for your mic. You're getting clipping and distortion whenever you make a "P" sound. A pop filter will smooth this out. They're very cheap. Look at your local Guitar Center, or online at Sweetwater

The back story from band members who were my classmates at Jackson HIgh in Jacksonville: The guys knew that their sound, craftsmanship, material, etc. was more nostalgic than ground-breaking. They decided to embrace it. The Roman numeral was meant to emphasize the embrace of "classics" and also make prevent disputes with other bands that had "classic" as their name.
