Rick Nelson, Randy Meisner At The Troubadour 1969 (Stereo Audio-Video upgrade)

- My favourite part of Rick's career. The original Easy to Be Free special has been re-edited with stereo audio and remixed to create more of a full concert experience rather than a documentary as original envisioned by David Nelson.
Good grief, this is good!!!
For all that Rick did for rock n roll and the millions of records he sold I still think critics have overlooked him in recent years. Incredible talent but a very humble man.
I've never seen or heard a negative comment about Rick or Randy Meisner, that's a good legacy.
Je suis d accord avec vous, c c'est un chanteur magnifique trop méconnu et pas assez reconnu, il a tout pour lui, la voix, la beauté, le charisme, une personne attachante et tellement humble, ❤❤❤❤
Almost TOO good!
Oh man.... I can't tell you haw many times I've listened to this record in my lifetime. So cool to see video footage from these performances. Man... he sounded so great, he assembled a really great band.... and what a ridiculously great and authentic sound they made! Long Live The Stone Canyon Band... and Long Live Rick Nelson!
Randy Meisner!!! Rest in peace.❤
Love this video! Rick and Randy friends to the end! What great music!
Ricky , actually shook his hand at a recording studio in 1971..I was 19 and could not believe it..Ricky nelson , what a star he was ..my first idol
Did you attend a recording session?
@@drlucio No , I met Ricky as he left the door to his recording as we went in ... The person I was with said now don't get all jumpy just be calm and I'll introduce you to him.. then he went in and played the violin part. Ricky was just as I had imagined and said hello it's nice to meet you , we shook hands and that was it. I was blown away by the whole circumstance.. the person I was with played violin for the lassie show in the 50s And 60s. Played the violin for glen Campbell's I am a lineman for the county, Linda ronstands you're no good , Eurythmics here comes the rain again ,.all of Dan folgerbergs songs. And was first seat violin for the LA philharmonic.. I lived with that family when I was a teenager over the cliffs of the ocean in Los Angeles Pacific Palisades in 1971 .. listen to the violin in those songs and you can tell his signature sound in violin.. he was the top studio . musician at the time for bands and movies .. I was always blown away living there .. those were the days..
Rick was one of the early influencers of country rock, especially with the Stone Canyon Band. Wish he had lived into old age so we could watch his music develop...
Amazing find! Randy Meisner's beautiful playing and singing are really on display here. Just an innately musical person. I can see why Rick wanted Randy in his band.
Randy was a magnificent bass player. It really shows on this doc.
Really enjoyed this. Had never seen it, before. Rick's abilities & contributions, as a singer/songwriter, musician & recording artist were underrated, in my opinion.
I agree with your comments fully. Shame so much of his creative music will never be as appreciated as the early hits
You're not alone in that opinion. Rick was awesome. Really nice guy too
Rest In Peace Rick Nelson and Randy Meisner. Thanks for the great music.
I had never come across this video before, must be my lucky day. So many of the song's, I never heard before. Rick was a master, a song writer and singer. He had a kind soul. Never forgotten.💓🎸🎶 🎤❤️
Still enjoying these performances that seem fresh to me. This is the clearest copy I've seen. Thanks so much for the front row seat. Rick's talent was not appreciated enough but his fans never forget
Happy you enjoyed it. Appreciate the comment
So many years! 60's and Rick Nelson!
Randy was too gentle a soul to have to deal with a-hats like Frey and Henley.
I was at this concert. Front row seats. Great Memories Indeed.
Ricky , actually shook his hand at a recording studio in 1971..I was 19 and could not believe I was to have the chance to meet and shake his hand.Ricky nelson , what a star he was ..my first idol..I was so blown away completely to say the least it was a moment larger than life
Too cool!
This is neat. Rick Nelson and Eagles member in 69. Thier voices are nice together.
Rick always had great bands.
I've heard his music for a long time; with the Stone Canyon Band; but have never seen the video. Appropriately I've found this just after the death of Randy Meisner; who would go on to be a member of the Eagles. Thank you for posting..
You are most welcome. Sad time for all of us with the greats passing away
And Randy took everything he learned from this experience with him to the Eagles, when it was really Rick who first blended country, folk, with rock and roll and created the embryo of the Southern California Rock sound. And this a great sound from all the musicians as opposed to the auto tuned, computerized sound you get now from every genre including country music.
Wasn’t he with poco as well?
@@jayrob280yes, he was.
Randy Meisner on bass. rip
💔😪
Rip rick and randy. 2 greats!
I’ve been down a Rick Nelson rabbit hole lately. As others have said, thanks so much for this- what great quality.
My pleasure. Happy you enjoyed it
We Miss You Rick What A Great Talent One Only❤😊
The crown prince of rock/country rock! God bless and RIP to randy and rick
I also see Randy Meisner playing the bass...
Also on those heavenly high harmonies
You can’t miss Randy Meisner’s amazing vocals, in the background. 🤍🎸
Randys' harmonies make all the difference...great live music...👏👏👏👏🏴
Boy the 60's had a magical feel to the era.
Thank you for posting. Great version of Lousiana Man. Ricky had it all: voice, charm, good type of music and handsome face. Love you Ricky, miss you.
Happy you enjoyed it. Appreciate the comment
Rick’s live album from the Troubadour has been one of my all-time favorites since it came out in 1969. Great band and great music! Too bad that Tom Brumley wasn’t featured or even mentioned in the video. His work on the pedal steel was a defining contribution to the sound of the Stone Canyon Band. The Eagles owe a huge debt to Rick Nelson and the SCB!
And Linda,she put em all together
Randy is playing his bass like he’s the lead ! Ricky’s band are the seed that became the Eagles ! These so called critics did know Sh!t.
He's working that bass!!
Randy looks SO YOUNG here! Wow!
Excellent video. I've never seen this before. Outstanding. Ricky Nelson was so underrated.
Great Rick Nelson mature concert.
I saw this live and many other of his shows. He never disappointed! A consummate professional.
Love Randy! Great footage and can't miss that high harmony. RIP talented and sweet man.
Meisner made any band he had played with great.
Rick loved singing with Randy! He said it often.
I've always been a huge Ricky Nelson fan from the beginning with James Burton on lead guitar up through his country band. RIP Ricky.
Very cool to see Randy Meisner playing some great bass parts on this! Nice stuff.
Country Rock at its inception. The one and only Rick Nelson. The father of......
He doesn’t get credit for it. Mike Nesmith too.
The wonderful Allen Kemp on lead guitar, another talent gone too soon. He later joined the New Riders of the Purple Sage. He was an exquisite player and a true gentleman.
Thanks I was wondering who was playing lead. But I always thought David Nelson was lead for NRPS ?
Allen replaced Skip Battin on bass for NRPS after leaving Rick Nelson in the late
'70s. When original lead guitarist David Nelson left NRPS a couple years later, Kemp took over lead guitar and also started singing and writing more for the band; check out the album "Feelin' Alright!" and its concert fave song "The Way She Dances." @@broncobrian2344
Outstanding sound quality, what a wonderful artifact. Thanks so much.
THANK YOU!!! And that pedal steel player, was the great Tom Brumley!! And those lyrics to "Easy To Be Free" ... wow, love that he knew the way ...
Not sure if you noticed that Rick sang an unreleased verse on Easy to be Free that was not on the single
I am amazed at the quality of the sound for this. Love it!
Il n est plus le Ricky qui avait seize an, il a mûri, comme il chante bien, comme il est toujours beau et trop attachant, il est pour toujours dans mon cœur❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for this superb rare video of Ricky Nelson, whom I had never seen. It is a real pleasure to see him on your site in this image and sound quality.😊👍👍
Appreciate the comment. Happy you enjoyed it.
Wonderful. Loved Ricky and his band. Especially the old footage with James Burton who went on to be in Elvis’s live shows in his latter career.
And that would be Randy Meisner later of the Eagles on bass
Tom Brumley on Pedal Steel used to play in Buck Owens & The Buckaroos @@ronparker1381
Rachanee Suzie Q. Many thanks for this sharing..I was never see it before.. Many thanks for your sharing I was listened to his songs since I was teenage and now I am 77 and I will listen to his songs forever.... Thank you so much again... Thanks....
Happy you enjoyed it. Appreciate the comment
Rachanee Suzie Q. Thank you for your wroth. I hope that you will make another clip for us ... Thank you so much again... Thanks😊😊
Wow, just could not believe it, Ricky live on video? Just love it! Have almost everything from RN, but did not know about this treasure! Thank you for posting this!
This poppa would be so proud of Gunnar and Matthew. They carried on his legacy beautifully.
This is so great. Thank you for this and for keeping his legacy alive ❤
This is great.
Dave, thanks for working so hard on this. Your bro was a singular talent. He was loved and should be remembered this way.
After watching this, I feel a garden party comin’ on.
Wow seeing the Troub being so empty in this video is shocking. Rick had so much going on in music but maybe his tie to the Ozzy & Harriet TV Show was a plague to him. He was great. May God bless Rick Nelson!
Part of thr Troubador was rehearsal. Performances were sold out
Excellent - great sound.
Appreciate the comment
Oh wow, that's Randy on bass. Didn't recognize him at first. This is great music. What a shame it didn't get recognized as such at the time.
I have the album!!!
Great restoration work. Thank you!
Newer stuff reminds me of the Byrds, nice playing and good recording
Good point. I really could not find a way to compare this music of Rick's to anything else from the time period. It has some country, folk and rock undertones mixed in with pop. Unique music to my ears. I know that like many others he was into Bob Dylan at the time.
Big up to ricky nelson all the way from jamaica 🇯🇲 still love you man
Appreciate your comment.
This is a special rare hard to come by video footage of Rick Nelson along with the original Stone Canyon Band, speaking as one of the original Editors of Music videos for the launch of MTV, am surprised when working with Mike Nesmith from The Monkees we didn’t come across this back then.
Always wished that MTV would have included artists of the pre-Beatles era in it's rotation over the years. A missed opportunity to increase viewership. This special was produced by Rick's brother David.
We had limited availability and lots of film footage to squeeze in combined with a limited budget and time frame to prepare for the launch before handing it over to MTV
Omg this is so damn good. I love early 70s Ricky.
My favourite Rick era as well. Where have all these years gone.
@@drlucioI wasn’t actually even born but I love this PEROID. . I fell in love with him in syndication in the 80s but adore this PEROID. I wish I could have saw him. Wish he had lived longer. 🩵
I agree about this period. I was around in the 1970s but too young to attend any of the concerts though I did get to see him live about 6 times in the last 2 years before the plane crash. Shows were excellent but he was doing the old hits rather than new material.@@taeylorbrooks8074
@@drlucioI’m glad you got to see him. If I could time travel I’d be going back. I am not sure I thanked you? Thank you so much for doing this. This is new to me so it made me super excited. Again, thank you. 🙏🏻
So why are the Eagles given all the credit for starting Southern California Rock? The evidence is here with Rick Nelson and the band including future Eagles member Randy Meisner who took this experience with him to the Eagles. The fickle public and smart ass critics would let Rick Nelson out of the "Ricky Cage" that's why. Rick wrote a lot of these songs! The harmonies are all there. Yet Rick Nelson got into the Rook and Roll Hall Fame BEFORE the Eagles did.
My thoughts entirely. Hopefully he will recognition he fully deserves.
And Poco, which Randy was a founding member of, as well. Poco and Rick Nelson were before the Eagles.
I’ve never heard anyone give Eagles credit for starting Southern CA rock, although unfortunately, they were the most successful. Founders would include Buffalo Springfield, The Byrds, Poco, Flying Burrito Bros among others.
Oh God yes I love Poco, I was in love with Ricky. All these are real musicians, good times, great places to go have a good time, such a shame it's gone.
Well said
He was so talented and SO fine! 🥰
thank you for posting this!! he's so underrated as a non-teeny bopper musician
So happy you enjoyed it and I agree that he was very underrated.
Wonderful Randy ❤
Wow! Have been waiting for quality like this!
This is beautiful.i have a rick cd,i love it
Hopefully this will spur you to discover more of Rick's great music
Every aspect of this production is stellar, and greatly appreciated. I had never seen any of this footage.
Really great players in his band as well.
This is so great! Rick was a few years too early with this sound. He evidently filmed much more than I thought from this era. His family should try to get full shows released if they’re in the vault.
This was created by David Nelson, (Rick's brother) so they do have the original film in their vaults. Makes me wonder if there are outtakes lying around as well.
@@drlucio His catalog too, I’d love a vinyl reissue of the SCB years.
A Rare AND LIVE VIDEO COMEBACK OF RICK , WITH THE STONE CANYON BAND .... UP TODAY ONLY AN LP AND CD AVAILABLE....
Happy you enjoyed it
This sounds so good, stellar job!
Thanks. Wish we had all these editing tools back in those days.
Thanks for posting! I loved Rick. His music has been in my ears since I was a little kid. He was as real as it gets and a musicians musician.
Love the country version of Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You.
This was Rickys group wasnt it? Man they were good. Who is on the steel? Sneaky Pete? Ricky has such a sweet voice. We got ripped off when he died. I thought that was Meisner on Bass. He was a treasure too.
Tom Brumley on steel. Tom was Buck Owens steel player for years.
Dayum, Tom Brumley is hot on that steel 😎🎶
All great musicians in their own right!!
He’s soo Fine 💙
Thanks for posting this! Great music and musicians!
Many thanks for posting this video. Hopefully he will get the recognition he fully deserves.
Very cool thank you for sharing , I grew up hearing this and eventually bought the album but never seen this , pretty nice.
Thanks for commenting
Nice video too❤
Ricky would have made an excellent Traveling Wilbury…
Man,this is a gem,thank you.
Drlucio thanks for putting together that collection on your page. I love all of it. Keep rocking n rolling my friend. God bless
You are welcome Greg. Thanks for the comment.
God bless Rick!
Lucio another gem that I never saw. This is great stuff and really enjoying. Nice find and thanks for upgrading. Continue the great work.
Thanks Dennis. Happy that it's new to you. One of my favourite Rick lps is the Live At the Troubadour and luckily some of it was filmed. Would love to see outtakes though at this stage probably unlikely.
Thanks for posting this video.
You are most welcome
I like how he "renamed" the twins in the song from "Bren and Lin" are the family twins to "Gunnar and Matthew are the family twins".
Even Doug Kershaw started using Rick's twin's names for the song after Rick did it.
LOVE RICKEY NELSON VAN AND HIM TOO ❤
First time I ever heard this song, great rendition.
Ton Brumley on his ZB pedal steel...awesome
First song I ever played in public was Poor Little Fool.
Very cool.
Gotta respect anyone playing a big Gibson hollow body!
Wow. This is excellent
Thanks for sharing this never seen this one 👍
Yes, many people don’t know Elvis took James Burton for his live shows in the seventies to fill the big shoes of Scotty Moore. Not an an task. They are both such great guitar pickers.
I bow.🧎♀️What a great man he was in every way. Thank you for sharing this gem. ❤
Great,thanks
His guitars and music equipment were worth more now then what he had back then incredible had all his albums went to wards and penny’s and sears bought all of them when they were closing in the 70s the day he died they lied there ass off about him . Loved his music and singing ability . Dylan had him trying to change but he was normal and wanted money.Tried to fit in with Elvis dying he did amusement parks so sad .
❤🎉❤🎉😢 musica lindíssima boa gosto Rick Nelson cantor faz muito sucesso até hoje faz muito sucesso até hoje faz muito sucesso até hoje faz muito
Happy you enjoyed it. Appreciate the comment
There oughta be a movie about the life of Ricky Nelson
There was one about 20 years ago but these films tend to concentrate on the negatives.
@@drlucio what was the movie called
@@kristinlambert8811 Ricky Nelson Original Teen Idol, a VH1 made for tv movie.
I wish I could see that
Or how about a good biography/ musical appreciation of him?
I love the stone canyon era rick but I wish someone could find some footage of Ricky live from the late fifties era with sound but I don’t think it will ever happen 😢
Great film. One thing, the caption has it as "She's an Artist." It should be "She Belongs to Me" - a great tune by Bob Dylan that Rick made his own. Matt and Gunnar do a great version of it as well.
Captions were done by youtube. I have no way to correct it. Happy you enjoyed the film
Great footage.
She Belongs to Me. Better than the recorded version. Classic!
It is A Cryin Shame that someone put his Band on an Old Beat Up Airplane, Just Like Lynyrd Skynyrd's Plane, Stupid people Do This , What A Great loss to the Music World, And Thier Family's, R.I.P. To All, Cousin Figel
