Dion and the Belmonts – Runaround Sue (1961)

Just needed to get out of my 1970s/80s rut.

What better way than to alight on one of the all time classics of rock’n'roll/doo-wop. Recorded in 1961, pop heaven.

Great footage from the period.

The audience are clearly playing a sophisticated version of musical statues. The only thing moving in the audience is the cigarette smoke to the heavens. Dion just never stops! What a voice.
