"The ‘In’ Crowd" is a 1964[1] song written by Billy Page[1] and arranged by his brother Gene that was originally performed by Dobie Gray on his album Dobie Gray Sings For "In" Crowders That Go "Go-Go". Gray's powerful Motown-like version, complete with brass section, reached #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 on 20 February 1965 and #25 in the UK in 1965.[2] Gray's Shindig! performance of the song aired on 10 March 1965.[3]
Ramsey Lewis instrumental versions
The Ramsey Lewis Trio recorded an instrumental version of the tune later that same year. Their jazzy take, recorded live at Bohemian Caverns, a Washington, D.C., night club, reached #5 on the Hot 100 on 9 October 1965 and was used for many years as background music of Jimmy Savile's Savile's Travels and Jimmy Savile's Old Record Club on BBC Radio 1.
