The Osmonds - Crazy Horses (x7)

Because no one demanded it; several clips of the uncharacteristically hard rockin' title track to the Osbro's 1972 LP (second only in
heavy-osity to 1973's 'The Plan', their ambitious Mormon doctrine freakout concept album).

Check the fashions, the moves, the delivery, the 'message' lyrics - - and good luck forgetting Donny's whinnying keyboard riff...

Below: ▼ perhaps the best of the bunch, dating from either '72 or '74, depending on who you believe.



Below: ▼ from a '73 German appearance, Jay gets out from behind the drum kit to strut in earnest throughout his lead vocal performance...



Below: ▼ lip-synching but spirited,,,


Below: ▼ hot and sweaty at Ohio's State Fair in '72...



Below: ▼ screaming fans and full-tilt Osmania at a '73 UK concert...



Below: ▼ funky flair and a slower tempo as part of a 'Donny & Marie' tour, later in the '70s...



Below: ▼ further changes by 1980, in concert in Provo, Utah...
