BILL SUMMERS "AT THE CONCERT" SOUL TRAIN 1982
Memories are important. This is a video of Bill Summers and band "Summers Heat" 1982 on Soul train.
This was more than a band, it was an educational institution and a spiritual journey.
In those days SOUL TRAIN was an important destination for Black bands. If you made it to SOUL TRAIN you have made it to the Holy Spot of Funk and R&B.
Understanding and establishing a publishing company is crucial. Having a background in business and intellectual property rights is of equal importance.
This band was put together with the utmost care. Each member brought a lot to the table. Each member was scouted, interviewed and screened carefully. Every member was a multi instrumentalist and could hold down...

I am honored and humbled by the achievement. we did it not I but my team made it happen. MEMBERS OF SUMMERS HEAT BILL SUMMERS leader/producer, vocalist, tenor sax & percussion SCOTT "ON...

In Memory of Clarence Slaughter 1

This is a film in honor of Clarence Slaughter 1989-2016 who transitioned recently in New Orleans. He was an exceptional saxophonist. Sometimes ill and troubled he turned to his friends who rallied behind him with support. He will truly be missed. A person with his talents are rare.

At the end of 2013 I embarked open a huge task, documenting the rhythms of New Orleans over the past 200 years. There are many countries and cultures that have influenced this area artistically. This is a very small part of the many hours of recording that I have done with the help of the greatest drummers the city has to offer. African, Haitian, Second Line, Brazilian, Cuban, Mardi Gras Indian...

Fantastic, The Best Classic 🔥🔥🔥🔥✊🏿💎
My senior year in high cool school, this was the absolute jam!!! Great memories!!
High School days
Time travel token accepted. 1UP. Join crowd. Play. Well put together Mr Summers. Apparently the Chi-Lites were also on that night.
2024 here 🙏
Timeless❤
This is still my jam...
Yes! My graduation year! 1982!😌🎶🎸👍🏾
He could've said Oakland.
This jam takes me back to my army days man! along with 'We call it the Box"!! Classics
I keep watching this video thinking bill brough the heat. This, Call It What and We Call It The Box all got that funk. I can hear Kevin Toney's influence of course after i found out he produced and wrote with Bill Summers. He learned from Donald Byrd and Bill with Herbie Hancock. And the female singer be getting down. Love it. I'm playing it again.
Show
The guy spinning the horn played with the Jacksons, I remember seeing him with them in March of 78
Good to see what you looked like. You were definitely one of my favorite bands in the early 80s beginning with 'Call It What You Want' through the 'London Town' album. I still have 'City Boy Lover' in my music playlist. I haven't been able to quite make out all of the lyrics but still great stuff. Thanks Bill and your talented crew for great music and great time that went along with it!
I am the creator of some of the segments of the song. Knowledge is my kinswoman. God will deliver my money. I saw a G. I've seen it all. Dope describes my rhymes, making all you MCS cold drop like dimes. You know MCSC is back again, and battling me on the microphone is like committing a sin. Scott/MCSC
Larry Batiste on trombone, this is really great 2 see!! Larry is a good brother & we love working with him, one love from Big Morg
Lary was my counselor when I sang with the Oakland Children's Chorus Every year at summer camp he would play taps and revele on the trombone... I love that dude!! salute!!
one word: freshhh!!!
back when there was real horns drums and synths,,,a nice mix,,,digital drums and analog drum machines were around in 82,,,but a lot of bands were not using them yet
The Legendary @BillSummers 🔥 🔥 🔥
I'm so blessed to have grown up listening to great music 🎶 artists like this group and many others from the old school era, Real music 🎶 no sampling of someone else music 🎶. We don't have musicians like this anymore.
This is still the jam in 22 real music at its finest.
legend
were they swearing? it sounds like they're saying jam the g.d. box.
Jam the “HOT” damn box is what we recorded on the record. We heard quite a few crowds at clubs chanting “Jam the God damn box”…
Smooth cool Don
Ai sim é musica de verdade.
Muita saudade de Musicas com Bandas e seus Metais Maravilhosos.
We were hella proud of our Bay Area musicians like Bill Summers. I remember Mr. Summers coming up to Cazadero to teach a workshop or two!
What city in the Bay was he from??
@@MistaAmazin - I don't think he was from the Bay originally - but he lived there for years - Oakland-Berkeley!
The Bay Area's BEST!!!!
🙌🏽🙌🏽
THIS BAND COULD BE MISTAKEN FOR MEMBERS OF THE UNITED NATIONS AND I LOVE THAT.
Worf plays trumpet
Yo, I was just listening to this record yesterday. My homeboy gave me some records before he had to move back to Memphis, while we both stayed in Murfreesboro ( both graduated of M. T.S.U). Once I left Murfreesboro myself and moved back home I finally listened to this record in particular. This Joint is straight roller skating music!!! Just having fun. Damn, good music never dies and gets old!!
What ever happened to Bill Summers
He's on Facebook and Instagram. Still Making new music.
@@Ezarhia_The_Fulani ok thanx
Nothing Like The Old School Funk Bumping in PACOIMA CA.
love privacy and call it what you want. best funk band
Only Real Ones know about this here!
Before i learned Piano, i was a drummer too. But i had a crash with a bike. Right leg was destroyed, so i cant play drumms anymore. But its in my brain. I would love to buy another recording from you. So many are gone. Deep Respect ✊ L G Majo Berlin Germany. 🎧🎼👍❤️
Now i go in my Keller (Basement) and cry 😢. Those days will never come back. Thank you Mr.Summers for that Joy. L G M 🎹🎧🎼👍❤️
Thank you Mr. Summers! Call it the Box all time. 🎹🎧🎼👍❤️
Nice classic!
Still my jam in 2020
Calvin singing his heart out...
Thank you man I needed that...
So funk deodorant cant stop the funk
Moog bass! Still remember the snowy day I bought this op then wore it out..
Are you the real Bill Summers? Anyway, this is great music. I'm white, but I'm going to share this with many people. Thanks for the video.
Not trying to be funny but man you have to admit, every time a white dude shows up on Soul Train, they steal the show! The trumpet player here, he showed out. Now Bobby Rodriguez, a Hispanic trumpeter, did an appearance with the Brothers Johnson. He showed out. Stan “Bebop” Martin, a trumpeter, did 2 appearances. One with the LA Boppers and another one with The Gap Band. What did he do?, He showed out. All these videos are on RUclips.
HAHAH. excellent point! it's as if they were like "OH, YOU'RE GONNA GIVE ME THAT PLATE AT THE BBQ!"
I just saw your comment... Thanks! That was me on trumpet... Jeff Lewis. I have met Bobby Rodriguez and know Stan Martin too (he always had great moves)... both great players. For the last 20 years I have been a member of TIERRA from East LA. Catch us at The Honda Center in Anaheim tonight (NOV 30, 2019.)
Jeff Lewis ok now, I’m star-struck! Great work man. Thank God for RUclips. People need to see the hard work, the grit, the blood sweat and tears and the sacrifices that went into producing great music. You were indeed beyond awesome!
@@jefflewis8826 Jeff Lewis, the first thing that came to mind watching your performance was Passion!. Your having fun man. I'm jealous. I wish I had learned how to play the horn. Thanks man!
@@jefflewis8826 Man you burnt holes through that stage with the heat that you brought Jeff. 🧯🔥
C'mon man everybody sings and playing a instrument. That's what you call talent. And check out the trumpet player, has some moves.
Thanks Ricky... that was me on trumpet... I have been with TIERRA now for 20 years...
@@jefflewis8826 Will the band play live again ,no talent nowadays. THANK YOU
