Do You Love Me by The Sonics (Fan Video)

  1. From OP:
    In the first half of the sixties, dancing was the thing and the driving force behind the "Northwest Sound". For me, two hits stood out -- "Twist and Shout" by the Isley Brothers in 1962 and "Do You Love Me" by The Contours in 1963. The Sonics would open their dances with "Twist and Shout", but unfortunately never recorded it. Thankfully they did include a scorching version of "Do You Love Me" on their first LP. It was Bob Bennett's over the top drumming that was a trademark of the Sonics' sound and drove this performance. How could you possibly sit still during this rendition of the Contours' hit.
