Dino was one of the coolest cats ever. Never saw him live with The Rascals, but they were generously billed as the hottest live act in the business during the '60's. Did see Dino up close when he killed the kit behind a short-lived, but terrific band called "Fotomaker". Dino walked into the club in a long cashmere coat, red scarf, and fedora and absolutely blew everyone away. His drumming was still crisp, and his showmanship was as great as ever with his stick twirling and cymbal crash sequences. One of the greatest of all time!

When I was active I use to play Bass left hand and right hand chords and no bass player. We just learn to auto magically adapt. I was a lead singer also. It just comes with playing all the time. What ever it takes to make a few bucks. Fewer musicians and more money for the rest of us. I was a bass player when I started touring until the band found out I played keys. I should have asked for money! I played Bass pedals when I grew up with a C3 in my home. Felix was a monster too. My favorite Hammond player was Jimmy Smith. He could really play those pedals!!!!!!

I've seen him play three times since 1965 and this video does not do him justice. He actually twirls his stick between snare drum beats and also throws his right stick into the air during the pause - then catches it and finishes the song without missing a beat. He was a true showman. Like the rest of us, he can't do the physical shows now but he is still an excellent drummer.

The song was NOT written for them; in fact, the song had several versions released before the Young Rascals recorded it.

Felix Cavaliere was covering so many bases on the Hammond B3...just an incredible act and they had the very first Platinum album with their Time-Peace hits collection (true!) in 1968 or so. Check out Come On Up, another fine tune which rocks or Find Somebody, a psychedelic number of theirs from 1967. I tip my cap to these gentlemen.

Drummers who are educated and informed know who Dino Danelli is. He's not under-rated -- he's just not recognized by average people who buy music. It may be because he was always a bit low profile. Dino, from Jersey City, NJ played with Lionel Hampton earlier in his career and was one of the few rock drummers who were actually jazz trained. Dino still plays to this day as far as I know. Dino played with Little Steven (of Bruce Springsteen fame) in his band The Disciples of Soul. He also played with lead guitarist Leslie West of Mountain. However, it is my belief that his lack of acknowledgment as a drummer is not having joined a high profile band after The Rascals. Had he done that his name would've continued to be out there as it was in the '60s. I'm a former drummer and I always thought Danelli as one hell of an excellent drummer. Always was. If you think he couldn't have taken Keith Moon's spot in The Who you'd be wrong.

Great song and this is cool. Started off as usual for the period. A lot of times in those days, the drummer could even be playing a solo (yes, not in this song), or some great fill, and the damn camera would be on the guitarist just standing there. It’s amazing how little the videographers in the old videos understood about drumming. Or, maybe it was just that they thought no one wanted to watch the drummer (whereas, that’s what I personally mainly want to watch, except for a solo by another musician or the singer). He started to show him a bit, towards the end. I’ve never really understood that, but look at a lot of old videos for confirmation.
