Originally by Hugh Masekela, the South African trumpeter, in 1968 as an instrumental. The song is a variation on another song by an African artist Freddie Gumbi (from Zambia) called "Mr. Bull No. 4." It's about cattle grazing in the grass, Harri. LOL. Both songs started with cowbell! The lyrics were written by one of the Friends of Distinction band members, picking up on the theme of herding cattle in Africa. Nice pick Brandon. Thanks, Harri.
LOL! Here I thought it was the other way, the cowbells represent the girls' fast pace lyrics. Anyhow, it's good for family outtings for picnics, etc, slowing down and observing nature, seeing what's around... and for the adults, adding that extra enhancement you elude to. I first heard Hugh's and fell in love with the cowbell and horns, guitar slide w/the surfer sound, and the energy! There's no doubting the energy. That's why the girls were so up and pippy! No wonder the song has that jazz-pop vibe! Thanks for sharing your take. I thought for a moment you may have recognized with your groove. In future episodes, PLEASE DO NOT CUT OFF THE SONG! Just because you may not "dig it" doesn't mean your audience isn't- we may be just discovering it too! ❤
This was the first big hit to include "Dig It" in the lyrics. Harry Elston does the lead vocals, answered by the other 3 singers. This song is packed with vocal hooks and a wonderful scat sing to some of the lines. This was a mammoth hit in 1969 and made it to Number 3. Originally done as an instrumental by South African trumpeter Hugh Masekela, The Friends of Distinction turned this into a catchy tune with great musicality and such vibrant vocals. Love this tune, transforms you right back to the 60's. ❤ Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and Brandon. 👏👏 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
@@kennyhuskisson2684slow down you backed up too far! This was a hit in summer 1969. That summer was filled with so much great music. I was 11 years old and loved every bit of it.
I can dig it. He can dig it. She can dig it. We can dig it. They can dig it. You can dig it. Oh let’s dig it. Can you dig it baby? Hardest karaoke ever!! ☺️
I realize that most songs have memories awoken by them, but some way more than others. This really hits the memory nerve for sure as Yorkville was changing from folk houses and Toronto bands to a bit of disco. Thanks Brandon and Harri.
Funny thing my Mom thought they were singing raisins in the grass are gassy. We were on the floor laughing when we heard her singing that line. We still tease her to this day and she is 94
Originally an Instrumental by Hugh Masekela. Great one. I tend to agree that there was a bit of an herbal reference but of course when this came out...everything had a herbal reference. Can you dig it Baby? LOL Good pick guys. Love this version. Check out the Masekela original. This is a great and rare live performance here.
Here's a RUclips link to the '68 studio cut from Hugh Masekela: ruclips.net/video/qxXZF60EPdM/видео.html This is the version I first heard... then a couple weeks later I came across the Friends live recording, and I lost it! SOOO GREAT how the tied the jazz in and the cowbell into modern era pop lyrics that hands down worked! I can totally dig it!
OMG, talk about a trip down memory lane (WAYYY down memory lane...I was 9 when it came out)! I couldn't have given the name of the band or the song, but remembered it as soon as it started. It was a great one, tho it never occurred to me, even when I heard it at an older age, about which 'grass' they might be talking about. Ah, the innocence of youth & cluelessness. Great pick Brandon, great reaction Harri! I can & did dig it. 😆
As a country girl growing up in the 60's, it was a wondrous pleasure to lay in the grass and sky watch (I often think back to that as my zen place). I interpreted this song at the time and still do as a natural high on "nature." And as for the excitement of the singers, they were on the freaking Ed Sullivan Show. No disrespect intended, just I see this performance very differently than the reaction. Love this song! Also, Harri, I love your channel!
Well, from the standpoint as a child of the 60's and a farm kid as well, I never thought it was anything except what they said and had ZIP to do w/what my dad's cattle were doing out in the pasture!! Loved it then, love it still. Thanks for the reaction, it really has been quite a while since I last heard it.
I dig it Harri. It's actually about cattle grazing, but of course all us hippie potheads took it to mean something else entirely. Used to hear this on the radio a lot, but this is the first time I've ever seen them. Lots of energy there, reminds me of The 5th Dimension. You should check out the original Hugh Masekela instrumental. I don't know if it was a big hit on the charts, but it was certainly very popular.
Come on now. Cattle grazing may have inspired the idea but those lyrics are about something else that as an eleven year old even understood. 😊 It would be a few more years before I “grazed in the grass” myself. And yes it was a gas, and I dug it.
This and Soulful Strut are my fave songs from the late 60s Im 59 born in '65 these were being played at the top of the 70s both have that symphony sound with plenty horn play…
This song was inspired by a song called "Mr. Bull #4" from a 7 inch novelty single record that Hugh Masekela (A black jazz trumpet player) bought while on a trip to Zambia. He reworked the song to fill in the final 3 minutes of a contracted recording deal in 1968. He did it just to fill time and had no idea it would be a hit. He even knocked Herb Albert out of the #1 spot in the radio charts. In 1969 The Friends of Distinction came out with the vocal version we saw here. They took it to #3 in 1969. The song is inspired by chillin' and watching cows graze in a pasture. Literally. lol
The sonng is about just enjoying life on a beautiful, sunny day. It was a big hit for The Friends of Distinction. It is a lyrical, vocal remake of Hugh Masekeka''s instrumentall hit. The beautiful, young lady in th white gown is Linda Cleaves, whose soaring, lead and background vocals can be heard, a couple years later, as a member of Earth Wind & Fire, and later Parliament Funkadelic. Check it Out! Ciao!!!
I know this song well, but had no idea "grazing in the grass" had anything to do with it! They sing at lightning speed. I can dig it, he can dig it, she can dig it, we can dig it, they can dig it!
Great request! I've always loved this song. Came out when I was in college. Another song by them is Going In Circles which is a slower song and is another favorite of mine. Thanks for the reaction Harri! Great memories!
@@miltonslocum8957 thank you. My favorite request of mine was my first one. He had only heard Kenny logins from footloose. I requested a song called celebrate me home.
Just heard this song a few hours ago. Yes, I can still do the fast part. This song is like a '60s time capsule. So much of this song has '60s lingo. I remember listening to this in the car with my son. At the end he said, "what?" I had to decode it for him.
The Friends of Distinction were a great American vocal group from the 60's. They had 3 major hits "Grazing In The Grass", "Going In Circles" & "Love Or Let Me Be Lonely". In the 70's they recorded "Check It Out" & "Time Waits For No One".
I remember this song. Its been awhile since I heard this great song. I keep saying, why can’t we hear these great song on the radio, and now a new radio station, WHLI or WHIL not sure, they play 60/70’s music.
I think the song is just about enjoying life and the beauty that surrounds us how many of us have laid in the grass and just enjoyed the sights & sounds, but it was released in the 60s so you never know what the true meaning of the song is
Ah, a super-duper sunshiny bubble-gum pop hit from '69, one of the greatest summers for music! Wonderful memories from my childhood associated with this one. I think it's an innocent song, Harri -- Ed wasn't going to let another druggy tune get on his show (not after Jim Morrison and the Doors' performance). The "Friends" could get soulful as needed, but this was pure sunshine pop.
Floyd Butler and Harry Elston sang along with LaMonte McClemore and Marilyn McCoo in the early-1960s in a vocal group called The Hi-Fi's. The Hi-Fi's later split up into what would become two vocal groups: The Friends of Distinction and The 5th Dimension.
Oh, Harri, these artists were of your parents’ generation, so consider how damn cool they were. “I can dig it you can dig it we can dig” alone is worth the listen. And, yeah, perhaps those fortunate souls had tripped the light fantastic, as it were. Hope they did. Hope you do, too.
I have been waiting for someone to react to this - finally! I can certainly dig it! Please also react to “Love Or Let Me Be Lonely” by same group. It is a wonderful arrangement with catchy vocal hooks, accentuating horns to go along with an unmistakeable 1970 soulful- pop vibe.
This was a great picnic or backyard BBQ song back in the day. It seemed so innocent back then, and now. Harri I must say, I did not see what you described in this song. Please check out some of the other songs in the comments, such as “Going In Circles”. Also the original instrumental by Hugh Masekela. Great stuff!
I just found and listened to it. Great reaction as usual. Thanks again for letting me know. I also suggested a similar song by the Main Ingredients, “Spinning Around” from that period. Check it out if you have not heard it. It’s a great song!
I had never even imagined that the grass that they have been grazin' would be Marijuana, Harri. If you had watched any of the dances from that era you would think that they were good.
Actually I looked up in song facts about the song and the writer the singer said he saw cows grazing in a field and that's what inspired him so it actually is about Grazing In the grass not a marijuana LOL
Smoking grass in the park baby can you dig it? LOL. Great harmonies at pace on this song. Are those beats triplets or quadruplets? It woulda been nice to see the band too, cause that wasn't lip synched per the lyrical ad libs.
Great to watch but messy to listen to as are most TV live appearances back in the day. You would do well to listen to the studio versions and while you're doing that check out "Love Or Let Me Be Lonely". A Great Group, criminally underappreciated.
I still prefer the original instrumental version of this song. I believe that came out a few years earlier. They did do a good job of converting a jazz song to a pop song.
Psychedelic Soul so you might be onto something. Two other great songs they had that popped into my head are Going in Circles Love Me or Let Me Be Lonely
I remember this song when I was 9 in 1969 playing in the snack bar, at the neighbourhood public pool, in Phoenix Arizona. There was a navel base up the street from the pool and I remember seeing service guys coming up to the fence to talk to the girls there.
Its only idea and agenda was for humanity to unite in love, beauty, understanding all of good things in life we all could have if we stopped thinking how different we are and started to think how alike we think about the beauty around us. Does grass feel different or are bird song's sweeter over your boarder than ours? The will of the people is stronger than any government army and can force change of ideas from war to peace. If only we could see beyond our differences to realize our similar joys of being one humanity with the same ideas of beauty and joy. Drugs only seemed to provide that insight of enlightenment but they lead only to death and doom of those idea's and give a another reason to turn from them. Greed & power seem to always win.
Such a fun song!

That's right John and I knew it by Hugh Masekela first. Fantastic.
There used to be a post on YT of both versions back to back. Starting with the instrumental first.
LOL! Here I thought it was the other way, the cowbells represent the girls' fast pace lyrics. Anyhow, it's good for family outtings for picnics, etc, slowing down and observing nature, seeing what's around... and for the adults, adding that extra enhancement you elude to. I first heard Hugh's and fell in love with the cowbell and horns, guitar slide w/the surfer sound, and the energy! There's no doubting the energy. That's why the girls were so up and pippy!

I think they also say "sock it to me", which was made popular by the show "Laugh-In"
@@EvenCheekier and James Brown.
I love this song so much! I remember when it was released in the early 70s, great memories associated with this one . Great reaction as usual Harri❤️🔥

Not everything is about drugs, this is pure joy and innocence!😎
Funny thing my Mom thought they were singing raisins in the grass are gassy. We were on the floor laughing when we heard her singing that line. We still tease her to this day and she is 94
Love this story about your Mom and this song.❤
Totally sounds like my tragic ear. It doesn't help when a lot of modern artists don't bother with eeennnooouun-ssseee-Aaaee-Sshhuhnnn.

Hi HARRI, you did check out another song by this group “ going in circles “... they do have great vocals.
Perfectly innocent song Harri. I also remember the earlier instumental version from a bit earlier.
I love this song! I'm so happy you got to hear it!!
Well, from the standpoint as a child of the 60's and a farm kid as well, I never thought it was anything except what they said and had ZIP to do w/what my dad's cattle were doing out in the pasture!!

I believe you’re right about the true meaning of grazing in the grass.
For some reason I always have trouble remembering what songs are by this group and which are done by The Fifth Dimension.
such a feel good track..always gets me up
If that’s live that’s amazing

1968 Favorite!
Try Strawberry #23 by the Brothers Johnson. You'll love it!

We used to call this 'Blazin' in the grass. I love the Fifth Dimension vibe, too.

I can DIG it BABY!!! Peeps danced that way even when sober! 🔥🔥🔥🌟👍🏻😄
Hugh masekela came out with instrumental Nice listen to it.
Always loved this tune!!
I was nice and energetic song, hearing it from the fm radio.

They were like a funky version of The 5th Dimension.
Hugh Masekela first wrote/performed this. His wife is Miriam Makeba. Their both fantastic South African performers.
Every time I come across this song it reminds me of my pot smoking days fifty years ago.
Maybe the ladies are just happy to be on The Ed Sullivan Show
So sad, two have passed
This is one exciting song! And, dude! They really have their pronouns DOWN!! haha
Nope, they are just high on life having a fine day.
Yes it was a big hit back in 1969 I was 16 when that song came out sweet sixteen😂
Guaranteed big smile.

Sounds very much like the studio version
You need to do this instrumental version
Smoking grass in the park baby can you dig it? LOL. Great harmonies at pace on this song. Are those beats triplets or quadruplets? It woulda been nice to see the band too, cause that wasn't lip synched per the lyrical ad libs.
It's about having fun outside in the grass on a summer day.
Going In Circles is a good one.
The origin of Sock It To Me! popularized on the TV show Laugh-In.
Great to watch but messy to listen to as are most TV live appearances back in the day. You would do well to listen to the studio versions and while you're doing that check out "Love Or Let Me Be Lonely". A Great Group, criminally underappreciated.
Most songs, back then, sang about sex, drugs, and having fun. Great times. Also, about love and war but not this one.
I did dig it!!!
I still prefer the original instrumental version of this song. I believe that came out a few years earlier. They did do a good job of converting a jazz song to a pop song.
Its not about weed. Its about relaxing and enjoying the great outdoors. Dig it means to get it, understand it etc. Its a gas means awesome, cool etc.
This was 69. Lots of energy around as the boomers were young.
Psychedelic Soul so you might be onto something.
Two other great songs they had that popped into my head are
Going in Circles
Love Me or Let Me Be Lonely
Just heard this on radio the other day ! Studio version a smidgen better..
I remember this song when I was 9 in 1969 playing in the snack bar, at the neighbourhood public pool, in Phoenix Arizona. There was a navel base up the street from the pool and I remember seeing service guys coming up to the fence to talk to the girls there.
SHO IZZ!!!!
Conjugate the verb: to dig it.
This originally was an instrumental by Hugh Masekela.
Another friends of distinction song you might like is you got me going in circles
I can dig it, he can dig it, she can dig it, we can dig it...
Remember it well
your right Hugh Masekela
No -- it's not about drugs or anything like that, just one of the "fun" songs from the 60's
smokin weed
My uncle toured with them decades ago, but I prefer the instrumental version.
Harri...u digged it good! I wanted to say something nasty...but i shouldnt.

This group was discovered by the fabulous NFL footballer Jim Brown.
Didnt u know this is the rock it to me sock it to me chant of the 70s
Remember the guys in the group last! Jessica, Barbara, Claudia are some of names!
I thought this was the 5th dimension.....
