I am unaware about the situation and I only have nothing but love for both of these individuals and their gorgeous family. I'm still enjoying great reactions on both sides. It is none of my business how people navigate their personal lives. I wish them lots of love and hugs. Focus on the glory of music. Canadian Grandma Lori. C.
@Saranda4787 So sad Sandra that you have this lack of understanding. They are a beautiful family. Anyone who has been a part of their journey can see that. Don't try to make it weird. I am a 60 year old grandmother. They clearly love their children and understand they are not perfect. They just want the best for their wonderful children. Blessings to you and yours. Canadian Grandma Lori. C.
I. Didn't mean glad Like that I meant. Were you happy that he was alone again? Some people do prefer that I was just asking. Sorry, if you have a problem with that. People are saying all these things about how it sucks or this or that.What about them as a people and their family?This is what's making everything go on.And it's very sad and things change even though it sucks
He literally made a video not that long ago crying about not being okay mentally and always having to get in front of a camera and pretend to be happy and waking up as a man having to pretend to be okay when he’s not okay , so to say he’s happy when you’re not him to know is very strange .
When you play a song, it inspires people here to react as well and share their knowledge of the artist. I end up learning a lot through this process. So thanks, Jay! 😎
Donny VanZant is in the black jacket and hat. He is the younger brother of Ronnie VanZant, the lead singer from Lynerd Skynerd. And youngest brother, Johnny VanZant, took over lead vocals for Skynerd around 1988 when the band reformed.
@@AMSDAVE I'm sure that you are thinking about Stevie VanZant who plays with Springsteen. The two VanZant families are probably distantly related, but they claim no relation.
Hey man. So awesome to see you continue and at 3x per day. Listen, these comments are gonna continue for a while, but eventually will pass. Keep at it and know we support you.
@@michaelasay8587Well, I'd like to think it's because it's nobody's damn business. I'm happy to see him doing this by himself, just like he started it, speaking straight from the heart and taking his time to speak to everyone with no BS and no going through the motions with rehearsed lines to recite.
Southern rock always had such a distinct feel. Very cool, and always makes you smile and move to the music. Lynyrd Skynyrd, Allman Brothers, etc always had a funky southern sound, excellent vocals, and lead guitars. What more could you want? Man, I miss those well-rounded rock bands!!
38 Special, Molly Hatchet, and Blackfoot was pretty much a 3-bill every summer for 3-4yrs back in the day. Was always a good time. Man, I miss the late 70's and early-mid 80's...there was always one or two really great live concerts a week within driving distance, especially during the summer.
.38 Special had the brother of the Singer from Lynard Skynyrd, the Van Zandt Brothers. Unfortunately, Ronnie died with many L.S. band mates in a Plane Crash in 77
Back in 1982 I was working at a factory. I made friends with a young man who told me about this group and the album. I liked it, bought the cassette tape and still have that same cassette tape! To that young man, Mike, you were a cool guy and I hope you are doing well. Jay, thanks for a great reaction. ❤
She's once in a lifetime singer and actress; also a very good dancer. I used to watch her when I was a young boy. You're one of the best reactors on youtube,so keep up the great work. I always watch ; but I don't always comment. I still watch your program regularly. I will your wife on the channel; you can count on my viewing your reactions.🙏👍🙂
1993 and 1981. The new programming is chronologically diverse so far. Other great songs from 1981 are Moody Blues' "The Voice", Chilliwack's "My Girl" and Diesel's "Sausalito Summernight"
Seen them open for Skynard in around 1976 in Nashville. The 2 drummers blew my 12 year old mind. Been my favorite group since. (Chain Lightning) is one of many I think you would like.
She has her own channel I just watched a few episodes of the office I don't know why people are freaking out she's not on here but she's still alive and healthy Jay even gave her a plug to checkout her channel.
We are wondering what is going on!! That's why! You want to write if you know what's going on?? They dont even say...Amber did her goodbye and said nothing ..so that's why!!!😮
I'm with ya on the bad weather, NC weather is all rain this weekend. This is my first time hearing this band. Not what I typically listen to by far, but a great introduction to them for this baby boomer. I really enjoyed it. Thank you for this. Take care and God Bless!
I first saw 38 when I was 15 years old, they were opening for molly hatchet at the time we all agreed that 38 dominated the show, I too was amazed to see the two drummers playing in unison
That was Donnie Van Zant, number two of the three Van Zant brothers whose Chuck Berry walk you were admiring. The lead singer and band leader is Don Barnes. I think the other guitar player was Jeff Carlisi.
I saw them late 70's early 80's. They were the second of three groups, the headliner was Molly Hatchet. No disrespect to Molly Hatchet, but these guys were way better. One of the best concerts I've ever been to!
I have never heard of this group.. I like it. That's what i love about your channel. It has such a great variety of music and groups. It's great 👍 Can i recommend some groups? Stereophonics (Graffiti on the Train or Maybe Tomorrow) and Simply Red, I know you've played them before. This song was they last single from they recent album "Just Like You" is the song, the bass guitar at the beginning is just amazing. ❤❤❤👍👍👍
Sending love to you J. Ignore the comments. It’s like sailing up a sewer in a glass bottomed boat but it will burn itself out if you keep doing what you’re doing.
@ Anyone who needs to know what happened already knows. Everyone else needs to crack on with the rest of their lives. If you get hit by a bus tomorrow, as the wheel starts to crush your head against the road, do you want your last thought to be “I wish I found out more about J and Amber’s private life”?.
Their biggest hit was with a different lead singer and a ballad from 1988 called "Second Chance." That was the only album Don Barnes the lead singer here didn't sing on, and he's still with them.
Hay Jay...Love Your Channel....I really wish that You would swap screens when You play a music video...We have seen Your Mug and Backdrop enough...Thanks and You Rock !!
Their personal life is private ofc, and most normal people have their own personal lives to focus on. So, beyond the first flush of shock, sadness and intrigue, only those without a life and who have invested too much emotional capital in these two will pursue this gossip and debate. However, I will simply chime with others who have said that Amber made this show magic.... WITH Jordan. The balance of styles and insights, the dynamics between them were greater than the sum. J is fine and Amber too. But like Lennon and McCartney, the combination is the magic. But great things never last.
Even though Amber is not here with Jay but I'm pretty sure he shares these songs with her on their own personal time which is no problem who knows maybe some day she might appear on a this channel once in awhile which is ok too, if not it's no problem at all... I will still support them... We love you Jay and we love you Amber...
@David54W I highly doubt it, too. I hope she decides to either start her own music reaction channel or donsome on Amber Reacts. She loves music so much that it would be a shame not to see that ,again.
@@brianmcmaster5112 Brad and Lex were my favourites especially Lex who actually looked like she was enjoying the music more than any other reactor. Unfortunately YT kicked them off the platform.
Jay, please don’t let the detractors get to you Sir! Just keep on and don’t pander to them. They’ll eventually disappear! Best to you Sir, and I’ll definitely be sticking around! You Got This 👍
Maybe, as and when you settle into your new routine, Amber could continue to choose the music for #FemaleFriday to carry on the tradition of you being surprised by her choices 🎉
As I remember I was with you from your beginning. I'm in the dark don't know about anything haven't been watching much reaction last 3 months. But what ever your going thru it work out 😜
Donnie Van Zant is the singer you're talking about. His brothers Ronnie and Johnny were Skynyrd's lead singers. The other lead singer is Don Barnes, still with the band to this day. They had two drummers through 1987 or so. You HAVE to listen to their song Chain Lightning. Easily their best in my opinion, and a slow grinder in contrast to most of their songs being more up tempo.

@saranda -- there are many videos re people who have no comprehension skills and are too lazy to look things up. Are you the official poster child?
I'm glad you're keeping this channel going. It started solo and it's back solo again.
Are you glad he's solo again?
I remember when she joined.
@@trudieristich795 Reality is he's solo again. Glad is irrelevant.

Still lovin this channel, been watching from the start

What do you consider their first 2 songs?

Jay, been here since practically day one. Just want to say that I'm hoping for the best for you....and your fam....
38 Special is one of those bands that does not have a bad song! Rockin' Into the Night is another great from them.
Yes.
You can't not like this! Such a great rockin' band!!
My favorite from.38 Special is “Rockin into the Night”
That whole album kicks
Mine is back to paradise, it kicks
My hometown band from where I've lived my whole life, Jacksonville Florida. Gotta love the Van Zant brothers, Ronnie, Donnie and Johnny!
I saw 38 Special around 1975 or 76. They opened for Bad Company. One of the best concerts I had seen!
Donny VanZant is in the black jacket and hat. He is the younger brother of Ronnie VanZant, the lead singer from Lynerd Skynerd. And youngest brother, Johnny VanZant, took over lead vocals for Skynerd around 1988 when the band reformed.
A street in my New Jersey hometown was re-named to honor the Van Zant family, they grew up on The street. Fun stuff!!

Love this band! One of my favorites!!
My 2nd favorite Southern Rock band. I've been backstage and they were all cool
Fantasy Girl is a favorite! Rockin' Into the Night is another.
Always good to see you enjoying some great music.
Back in 1982 I was working at a factory. I made friends with a young man who told me about this group and the album. I liked it, bought the cassette tape and still have that same cassette tape! To that young man, Mike, you were a cool guy and I hope you are doing well. Jay, thanks for a great reaction. ❤
Fantasy Girl. Chain Lightning. Two more awesome songs that never get air time. You’ll love them both.
I forgot to mention , Rockin into the Night. All great songs.
Love Chain Lightning ❤

38 has been probably in my favorite top 3 southern rock bands since the early 80s, if not my #1. Just depends on any given day. 👍🤘
I'm glad to see this channel is back in full swing again! Still on board!
Second Chance will always be my favorite 38 special song. This is the first song I ever heard from them. Love it.
I got to see .38 Special the 1st time in 1982 right after this album came out. Awesome concert!
Such a rockin band
The first singer, with the black hat, is Donnie Van Zant, brother of Ronnie Van Zant, of Lynyrd Skynyrd!
And also joined brother Johnny for VanZant😊
1993 and 1981. The new programming is chronologically diverse so far. Other great songs from 1981 are Moody Blues' "The Voice", Chilliwack's "My Girl" and Diesel's "Sausalito Summernight"
Great band, great song, great reaction..Keep on rockin Jay!!
In the early 80's I used to loads of Rock and Biker festivals. This Southern Rock style was our bedrock.
Great band live. One of the best and most underrated bands.
That was Johnny Van Zandt doing the Chuck Berry move. He is one of the brothers of Ronnie Van Zandt the singer of Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Now I will subscribe!!!
Awesome job Jay it’s just you and me again just like it was years ago when I stumbled upon you
Seen them open for Skynard in around 1976 in Nashville. The 2 drummers blew my 12 year old mind. Been my favorite group since.
(Chain Lightning) is one of many I think you would like.
While checking out .38 Special, be sure to listen to Chain Lightning - my personal favorite song by this incredible band.
Awesome tune, finally someone played something other than hold on loosely. Great reaction
First time I herd this song was at FT still ok my roommate had the LP beutifull 😊
Saw them live back in the day. They were great! Love ya keep doing you ❤
I'm with you, I love me some good ole down and dirty southern rock! This wasn't a big hit, but it got played on AOR stations. Awesome track!
Can everyone please stop asking about Amber or commenting about what they saw on IG!? You’re not helping Jordan navigate this new chapter whatsoever!
Lol he's a grown man he knows people are gonna talk about her so calm down

Some of the best from my era!
Saw these guys in high school. It was a great concert
Same here. Saw them in 1986. Bad Company opened for them.
@@peace-and-quiet saw them also in 86
Very cool song Loved that album
Great to see Jay getting back into his music-reaction groove. Keep it up bro.
HiJay! So happy to see you!
Jay your the one who started the channel so keep on going :), and i hope you keep doing your movie reactions 👍

Another .38 Special song comes to mind
Nothing was said about it but 38 specials singer is Ronnie Vanzant Donnie Vanzant is Lynyrd Skynyrd's singer's brother Ronnie vanzant
Oh yeah --- big fan of the first two 38 Special albums!
Now we're talking! This tune brings me back to some great parties!
They r so great for a big bon-fire field party. Thanx darlin', always sending love and support, Peace
Another group from my hometown of Jacksonville! ❤

Lynyrd Skynyrd and 38 Special are both from Jacksonville Florida. And Ronnie Van Zant's brother Donnie is the blonde guy singing.
The guy in black was Donnie Van Zant brother of Lynyrd Skynyrd's Ronnie and Johnny Van Zant

Enjoyed this so much .
Who dey! Who dey! Who dey think gonna beat them Bengals!? 🐅 🐯
Don Barnes and Donnie Van Zant trading vocals on this one. Great track. In their heyday, they did have two drummers. These days I believe just one.
Glad to see you carrying on J.
I wish people would come on the music reaction channel for just music reactions. Geesh.
87% of people on the internet are relationship experts I've learned from all this haha
Relationship experts with no relationship 🤣🤣🤣
Hang in there. We are,...
The Chuck Berry walk was Donnie Van Zant. Ronnie's and Johnny's brother. The ties between Skynyrd and .38 Special runs very deep.
So sorry your wife decided not to be on what channel any more we will miss 😢her 😢😢

Hi Amber!
Hey young man it's about time somebody reacted to wild eyed Southern boys
There is actually a band called the nitty gritty dirt band.
He’s reacted to them a couple times, I believe Mr. Bojangles and Fishin’ In The Dark.
