Indiana Wants me - R Dean Taylor liveish

R. Dean Taylor performs his hit single Indiana wants me in 1969 on an American tv show - quite rare to see him in person.
He of course enjoyed other hits like Gotta see Jane and the Northern Soul classic There's a ghost in my house

"Indiana Wants Me" is one of the best pop songs ever. Under 3 minutes of pure pop perfection gorgeous vocals with a lush production complete with police sirens and police commands. RIP Mr. R. Dean Taylor you are truly one of a kind :)

This great song came out in 1970 I was in Junior High school. I was 14 Yrs old at the time and Hurricane Celia had devastated our Hometown Corpus Christi, Tx. The way I coped with my problems was listening to great music. Music did it for me that's how I got through it. On 4/24/2023, Who's still listening? I'm 67 Yrs old and will still be listening because this is a wonderful song. The time when music was great and was worth listening to. R Dean Taylor may not be around like other musical greatest but this great song still lives on.

Wow! First time I've seen this song performed. I had the 45 when I was a kid and just love the song

[MissWitchiepoo]

My cousin was always singing this song and though I had never heard the song I soon was singing along and it would take me many years before I would hear the real thing but I sang it often. One day I found the LP for less than a dollar and I was so happy to hear the real thing;)

[TheGBs]

What a great song. Beautiful chord progressions.

Mr R Dean Taylor one of my favorites singer-songwriters over at Motown records yes I said Berry Gordy's Motown records he had major hits for Diana Ross and The Supremes as well as the temptations to name a few but what really draw my attention to Mr Taylor was he was a folk singer as well AM radio 📻 was at its best during the 60s and 70s

Rest In Peace, Mr. Taylor. I was just listening to this song a few months ago on repeat as I drove out of Illinois to Michigan. This song set the tone and the mold for the music of the entire trip. Thank you for the memories. ❤️😢
