64 yr old jaded codger here who is 7 yrs late to the jam but you guys CRUSHED it on these covers! I saw you guys did the last song without tuning your guitars to that whacky E modal drone tuning (eeeebe) that the band used where ya cover the top & bottom strings and easily slide around the neck for half the song! Couldn’t tell the difference with your performance! The Real Music Observer YT guy sent me to y’all and I am loving it! Deep dive into your tunes coming this week! Rock on gentlemen!!!
Those “Dututits” ( Ventura Highway) sounded incredible. There’s a flutter and oscillation that I’ve never heard before in any kind of vocalizing . It really is a new never heard before sound. It was like a 3 phase alternating current of harmony.
THIS IS AMAZING!!!!! the harmony is out of this world and is extraordinary!!!! This takes soooo much skill and this will forever be the greatest cover in my book!! holy crap man i cant get over this cover and how much skill was put into this cover. All of u are soo talented!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm 60 years old and still often listen to this song. Thank you very much for posting this on RUclips. It makes me so happy! Love you guys♡ greetings from The Netherlands.
Having grown up near the Ventura Highway this song by America was always my favorite....... Your cover was nothing short of awesome..... enjoyed the black and white vintage feel of the video....... thanks guys you made my day..... HIGH SOUTH ROCKS.
You really needed to be in Los Angeles and Ventura counties in the late 60s and early 70s to fully understand the lyrics to Ventura Highway. There are so many things that happened in the area that are tied into this song. The line about Venice is just one of them. There was a great painting was done on the wall of a building that showed Venice in the snow. Then someone built a building and blocked the view of the painting.
Great cover from this old am band radio DJ of the 70's who got to play a ton of Americas tunes all which are timeless . You guys nailed it in this cover work, Thanks for the post and sharing.

Well you gents just blew my old 65 yr. ass away with your cover of these two anthems of the 70's just stay focused and true to the music and you will find your reward I am sure. Thank You for sharing this.

The VERY BEST Cover of both groups I've EVER HEARD. As a matter of fact this is better than the groups could do now at their age. THANK YOU for recreating this LIVE version. LOOKING FORWARD to more of you guys. EACH of your talents bring so much to the whole.
Such pure vocal perfection with their harmonies. Every time I hear this song it recalls to mind early mornings on the coast. Sitting on the rocks, cup of coffee in my hand, the softest bit of fog turning the world into shades of grey and misty blue. The taste of salt in the air, steam rising from my coffee, the lonely cry of gulls and the rush of the sea to the sand below....... But that was so many decades ago........ Yet still if I close my eyes and listen to this magic it's as it was only yesterday.......
Best cover version of the song I've ever heard.
Missing the bass.

You are all a gift to those of us older who grew up with this music in the summers of our youth. Beautiful heart melting memories. Thank you

Excellent job on the music I grew up listening to. Everyone should see them live.
I am always so appreciative when music is made like this with real people's voices and instruments being played.

Love the entire performance and especially love Kevin singing the lines in Spanish perfectly !
Songs by America are the sound track of my days in college and very special to me. Great covers, guys!

Great cover. AMERICA was and still is a great and talented band. RIP Dan Peek. Such a sad story.
Very nice.
My wife, a huge America fan, said she'd pay to see you guys live! I'd go with her!
