Yea man, that '59 clip is great! I'd seen it before at some film fest way back, but had to see it all the way thru again.

One thing about the Wooly Bully clip; when every other band of that era had dancing girls, the girls here are just standing there which, to me, makes them more provocative.
Sharing in with the Yardbirds love, here's what most girls were doing on stage during that decade.

Speaking about the Yardbirds and the guitar players that played in that band, they all played with John Mayall first.

I don't want to derail this interesting thread, but here's the most embarrassed band to ever do a lip sync in the 60's. Poor guys!

Harmonica is the main instrument, which John whips out for last few seconds Mick Taylor, another up and coming guitarist to "study" with Mayall, doing his best to take it seriously.
