    You're not trippin!
    I was born in 1956. I've always thought of 60s and 70s music in terms of nuclear fission and fusion. Like an explosion of musical style particles (blues, jazz, rock, latin, etc.) that then fused into new elements. Plus, the creativity and dedication to the craft was, and clearly still is, impressive.
    I don't know if this is a factor or not, but I also remember we could let ourselves go, be open and vulnerable, and trusted these extraordinarily talented musicians take us wherever they wanted to go.
    Maybe it's not accurate, but it seems like it's more difficult for younger people to go with the flow as easily.
    I still find it a great joy to just completely lose myself in a song like this classic!
    It makes me sooooo happy to watch you get onto it! ❤

  • @mackbeasley526

    The music was much more appreciated then by all races. The Doobie Brothers, Allman Brothers, Sly & The Family Stone, Blood Sweat & Tears and so many more were mixed bands and they put out some incredible music. Steely Dan, Eric Burden & War, Dr. John are all worth scoping.

    Stevie Winwood is a genius...A word not misplaced on him...used cheaply on others.
    Check out "Roll With It" video...and his timeless, immortal "Can't Find My Home".
    He still records and performs. He creates, plays and is fluid with any type of music that comes to him.
    One of the truest soul brothers in music...talent attracts talent. Anybody would love to work with him.

    Most of the musicians from the 70’s, are in their 70’s 80’s or sadly dead. The majority of the great bands were from the UK, they loved Mississippi Delta Blues & Chicago Blues, & brought them back to the USA. Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant & drummer John Bonham were both from Birmingham England too. They formed about the same time as these guys, & NO England didn’t have the race issues, like especially the US south. The 70’s was a more peace love sex & drugs time, I grew up in Miami, & it was great back then. Bands didn’t have issues with each other like there is today, most were friends or friendly. They weren’t out to kill each other, like it sadly is today. YES we had the best music, great childhoods & teen years, I wish people today could experience all that we did.

    I heard an interview with Steve W. about the title and meaning of this song. If I remember correctly (always a gamble), it was the band throwing shade at the record co. execs. They got a visit from the execs because they were late on the album or something. The execs told them to stop f*ing around and smoking weed and get to work, or something to that effect.

  • @michaelwebster8389
    @michaelwebster8389 18 дней назад

    Steve WInwood came from the English 60s generation who identified with black American blues and jazz musicians, and were primarily influenced by those great artists, and related to their struggles in American society. It was a tremendous flowering of music in England that owed so much of it's roots to black American music, and to American rock and roll. It was a real golden time.
    Those influences are still strong among later generations, but they're much harder to detect in more modern popular music - at least sometimes.

    I'm in my 70s. This song came out when I was in college. And of course I could listen to this stuff anytime on my old LPs. But listening to reaction helps bring back the memories of first listen.
    I'd like to add I don't know why this generation thinks we were all racist. This old white Cowboy brought a black girl to my senior prom. The two of my children are half Mexican.
    And I worked three jobs to put myself through college.
    There was a big lie that was perpetrated the last few decades. And it caused much misunderstanding.

    I went to high school in the rural south in the 70's. We really didn't have racial problems. One of my best friends all through high school was a black guy (old white lady here). We went to our HS reunion together. Lost touch with him when we both moved to different cities. [Nate, my old buddy, hope you are doing fine.]

    There was more harmony then at least where I was, Brooklyn NY. We were influenced by black and white. Music, sports and all else. Especially music, nothing like those days.

    We had it in the very late 60s and 70s, hand in hand in all genres, exploring each others minds and creativity and above all the Possibilities! Jazz was the pinnacle.
    Then came the 80s and the Reagan Revolution and the fucking churchy magoos getting so butt hurt They couldn’t bring themselves to join in. So, they partnered with Corporate Daemons to Fuck All things creative and force wedges between us. This was encouraged by selective SCOTUS judges in ‘71, that business should influence culture.
    In other words, same shit different day.

    I think the studio cut allows you to hear the words easier.

    We did have the best music in the '70s and we had authentic talents then that was before MTV change things with the videos and it became more of personality & performance versus authentic real talent
