Billy when summer hit, your version of Summertime hit the radio waves all over the U.S.A., In California it was played well into the end of October. Thank you for your lovely voice. Nov 25, 2021.
First time I heard this floating around in a rubber ring Disney waterpark fell in love with it not realising this was the biggest selling version love it
Thank you for your gift of this song Billy Stewart. As much as I first loved it, once I went back and heard the "Porgy 'n Bess" version... I loved your version of the song all the more. For me, in the top 5 of all time. (And I'd have trouble naming the other 4.)
Whoa!!!Jeeze!!!!I remember hearing this sometime when I was real little but I've never seen him do a live version. He ------I'm wonderfully speechless!!!!
Where did you find this classic? Thanks for posting this rendition it's one of my favorites, post more just like this one!!!! This kind of music is timeless!!!! Soooouuuulll!!
This song is about Redemption! The Resurrection through Faith in The Lord Jesus Christ who is God & Savior (John 1:1-14; Titus 2:13; 1 Timothy 3:16; Isaiah 9:6; Revelation 1:1-9). "For The Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of The Arch Angel and the Trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ shall RISE first, then those who are a live and remain shall be caught UP together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the Air and forever shall they be with the Lord" (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17) BELIEVE on The Lord Jesus Christ and YOU shall be SAVED, both YOU and your household (Acts 16:31) Salvation rests entirely on the Shedding of Jesus Sinless Blood on the Cross for ALL Humanity, unto whosoever BELIEVES by Faith (i.e. imparted Revelation from the Holy Spirit), and in doing so, YOU will be among those described in this incredible song by Billy Steward! The result?? Living in a New World under a New Heaven where there's no death, no suffering, no wars, no aging, no racism, no brokenness, no addictions, no insanity...instead immortality, eternal love, eternal joy, eternal peace, and most important of all LIVING in the midst of the Loving God Jesus Christ who came to earth to reverse the curse of The Law of Sin & Death, through sacrificing Himself on the Cross shedding His Sinless Blood in YOUR behalf to make it all possible. Can you imagine that, God came to earth in the form of a Man who had no human father to RESCUE YOU which COST HIM EVERYTHING....AND HE DIDN'T HAVE TO DO IT, BUT HE DID ANYWAY! (See Genesis 6:6) NOW THAT'S A LOVE NO ONE KNOWS AND NEVER WILL UNTIL THE DAY YOU MEET JESUS CHRIST IN PERSON!
Too bad the whole audience was white as they were listening to one of the greatest black entertainers of all time. Was that Paul Revere (of the Raiders) seen at the end?
Dave the bass 🎸 player here and still listening July 2024.RIP MY FRIEND

Noone I have ever ever heard done this song better. The best version. He had such a range of emotional flavor with the uptempo. Yes
Hands down the Best version👌👌👌👌💐💐💐
Just sitting there clapping their hands.
Don’t realize they are listening to a genius.
Reminds me of the scene in Get On Up where JB performed I Got You and they robotically clap ( "H*nky Hoe-Down" _JB)
They couldn’t even clap on beat
What a gifted voice / singer. A tragedy, lost so young.
This is one of those songs that even if performed today, would get as awesome of a reaction as back then
how am i this late discovering this jive man. i am so glad they captured this beautiful moment in music history.
I love, love; love Billy Stewart music. Washington DC, y'all!!!!
One of the best records of 1966
I remember! And WOW, what a treat after all these years!!! Never saw this before.

Good lord!!!!! What an interpretation. Bully Stewart rules!!!!!!!
A superb talent who could do it all .. well needs a little practice with the mic toss.
To bad soul train wasn't even conceived in my day.Real OG.
Great audio remix ! I can tell...
Looks like this is from "Where The Action Is" with Mark Lindsey of Paul Revere and the Raiders in the closing hat shot.
Gone too soon
The song and his singing is awesome, but dude really needs to gun belt and the Sammy Sam Arby’s hat 😂
The full studio version of this song clocks in at just under five minutes. It's even better than the edited version Billy is lip-syncing to.

???
Huh?
@@fscorpion678 too bad you're too young to know anything
@@kenlucas7025 obviously, you're too young to know anything
What does it matter the " color " of the people in the audience? Is that the way that your brain has been programmed? Good music is good music right?
