the entire performance of Stone the Crows Beat Workshop performance. On The Highway Going Down Penicillin Blues Niagara Sunset Cowboy Palace Of The King Good Time Girl
@Stephen Goldsmith I just made a similar comment on another tune of theirs. Never heard of them til stumbled across them on YT few days ago. U would think with Peter Grant directing them he would have promoted them more. Yes same Peter Grant who managed Led Zeppelin. This band is hot. Should have been top act here in States. Sorry we missed out on them.
Well Jimmy McCulloch was my classmate at Cumbernauld High School. At 14, he was quiet unassuming wee guy. He went down to London to record a single at Decca with his brother's group One In A Million. Sadly the single bombed & maybe they should have thought of another band's name! Anyway I joined the Army & next I see him on tv in Thunderclap Newman's massive one hit wonder Something in the Air (narcotics probably!). Then onto Stone the Crows & of course Wings with Macca. A great resume I think & sadly he left us & me a thrill seeing him perform & record. One in a Million he certainly was.
William Buchan thanks for sharing your memories William. I’m finishing up writing Jimmy’s biography this week and will include this and any other memories of Jimmy and Jack!
@@Frip36 Not KC but has worked with Bob Dylan, John Lee Hooker, Sonny Boy Williamson, Memphis Slim, Solomon Burke, John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers (Blues from Laurel Canyon), Mick Taylor, Focus (Hamburger Concerto), Donovan
Fabulous stuff...!!..Almost got to see them..we had tickets for the Bristol gig couple nights after the Swansea gig....but sadly tragedy struck at Swansea....being a long time guitar player myself...I was so looking forward to seeing Leslie Harvey...wasn't to be...!!!...RIP..Leslie Harvey..!
I saw Maggie a few years ago alongside with Pete York, Colin Hodgkinson, Jon Lord and Miller Anderson - what a lot of fun they had that evening at the Lahnstein Blues Festival in Germany. They flashed everybody in the audience with their joy and generousity! RIP Jon Lord.
So I learned that Lesley Harvey was the guitarist who started Stone the Crows. He was the brother of Alex Harvey. He sadly died from touching a microphone that wasn't grounded whilst holdnig the strings no his guitatar on stage at the Swansea Top Rank (indoor venue) on May 3 of 1972. Lesley Harvey founded the band late in 1969. I love Jimmy McCulloch's style and ability. Thanks for posting this video, which introduced me to Maggie and this great blues band.
Yes....sadly either the P A amp and/or guitar amp wasn't earthed properly..meantime no circuit breakers can have been in situ...I never play my guitars without a breaker..even at home..!!..Electricity is a powerful thing....but give it somewhere to go..and it's there...!!!!..Always be careful..!!
What Real Rock was like during the 70s . No toes stepped on & everyone in the zone . Enduring the good and terrible times they went through & never losing that edge both Les & Jimmy gave them. Sad tales to lose them both . One of rocks true legendary bands that will always stand the test of time. All great players that had it in droves & what a great time to be growing up playing music.
Seeing as there are numerous mentions for guitarist Jimmy McCulloch (later w/Paul McCartney's Wings), who replaced Les Harvey (younger brother of Alex, who had the Sensational Alex Harvey Band; electrocuted onstage) and Maggie Bell, the keyboardist is Ronnie Leahy (later with Jack Bruce in the 80s), while the rhythm section is the tremendous Colin Allen on drums (later to Focus) and Stephen Thompson (replacing James Dewar, who hit big with Robin Trower) on bass. Allen and Thompson came from John Mayall's band (the 'Blues From Laurel Canyon' album; Thompson was also on Mayall's drummer-less 'The Turning Point'. Though critically acclaimed and finding some success,, sadly this band, like so many others of the era, were unable to translate the popularity of their live shows into chart success. Bell and Allen later teamed up and worked together for many years. As was the case with so many of the best rock drummers of the era, Colin Allen was a jazzer.
I'm Scots, but sadly I never got to see them there, or anywhere. This is a great performance, and stands the test of time. I find it amazing how in tune Maggie Bell is -- what a singer!
Elements of the Grease band, James Dewar, Joe Cocker, and Janis Joplin here. If they had been marketed for the USA who knows? Just the same a great band. Will keep watching. Maggie Bell! What a sweetheart and tremendous talent. Can't get enough of this groove.
@@JimmyMcCullochFan Ok thanks... But he still should've been known for his own music such as this...shame This is first I heard them... And I'm 60...lol
I completely forgot about this band until I recently rediscovered them on RUclips. I can’t think of any female vocalist who compares to Maggie’s aggressive powerful clarity and vocal range! This wonderful talented lady still has it to this day. WOW! After seeing Sunset Cowboy which is a tribute to Les Harvey I can clearly see and hear her soulful outpouring of love & respect for him. Ron Leahy an excellent keyboardist really set the tone for Sunset Cowboy...wonderful song. All the different members of Stone the Crows are wonderful talented musicians. By seeing their smiles as they all do their magic you know they love what they do. Thankfully back when Stone the Crows performed live their magic was recorded on film for new generations to discover. This how all great bands live on. This is real music and this is how it’s done. I’m a Joe Bonamassa fan and it would be quite interesting to see him and Maggie together on stage. Two excellent blues masters a generation apart joining forces for the common good for all blues lovers. OH YEAH! God bless you Maggie! With best wishes and regards from East Millinocket,Maine...David Page.
I'd seen the band mentioned while I read up on Jimmy, but had never heard them! So this is what I've been missing for 50 years. I'm suddenly struck by why Wings Over America is my favourite Wings album... simple. Jimmy playing live.
I knew of them bit never really bothered until recently - they are like a breath of fresh air. A wonderful band! It is so great to discover new 'old' bands
Sho' nuff homeboy. She was voted best English female vocalist 2 years running. Saw her when her first solo album came out. Her backup vocals kickass on one of the best songs ever recorded. Every Picture Tells a Story.😊
Les was great, but Jimmy, oh, Jimmy!! And Maggie, what a voice !! As so great as Janis, for sure! (And i love Janis so !!) And the whole group is High !
Worth remembering that Maggie was doing this, long before Janis ever appeared. For me, Maggie was, easily, the better of the two, Janis didn't have that missing 'soul' bit - the Scottish one. You can hear it in Alex or in Frankie Miller (Rod wishes he had it but a London upbringing kinda diluted it). The young Lulu had it, too, believe it or not.
@@willcambeul6172 Nah Will. Maggie is a one trick pony. Joplin could do half a dozen styles. And miles more power than Maggie. Watch her obliterate Tom Jones.
This group is fantastic during this era am small boy first time in my I heard to this band there melodic blues and there sound different, the vocalist very good renditions.
Seems i might be a little older than some fans here. Never heard of stc before. How i missed these people is beyond me. Talented, very talented. Thanks for furthering my education
First time I've seen this video. Did see Maggie and Long John together back before you were born. The guitarist reminds me a little of Roy Buchanan the way he bends the strings to change his tone. And it's pretty obvious that Stevie Nicks watched Maggie to get her stage moves.
Great band.mucicans, time and Zeppelin's maneger Peter Grant, who also was executive produser of Stone The Crows! Jimmy McCalloh in action great bluesy axeman!
I have seen Stone the cerows in 1973 july-august on the football stadium live. North London I had a badge prss from than YU Dzubox magazine . Shocked byu Maggies pressence it was absolutely crazy may head was exploding with every new song. She have hit the right Notges and had this pressence. Jimmy page just would not work with any old Harriet. Well done Stone the Crows Thank you Maggie Alex
@@Oh_I_Will To be honest with you I did not know what they were playing .At that time I was routinely attended concerts of all the gigs in London. A lot of them in west London and a lot of them in The Grayhound in Fulham Palace road. Dozens and dosens of bands. I must say Maggie Just stood out so much. Only decades later I learned a bit about them. Wonderful times .
I first found a single clip of that same Penicillin Blues ... which cooked my ears and eyes in honey .. and I thought how did that tidy schoolboy hanging on to Winters wing got covered allover in River Clyde mud .. the rest is history .. imagine him and Brian Robertson within the same lineup (even briefly) though is still a challenge . he matured so fast and it is a shame ☮️🔔
![[Special Clip] ATEEZ(에이티즈) 홍중 'Why Do You Love'](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/I6XYXQKN_pY/mqdefault.jpg)
Some of the best rock and guitar playing I have ever listened to.
Grossly underrated.
R.I.P Leslie harvey , Jim dewar.
Why at the age of 60 years old and with a great love of the blues, have I only just come across this group. Outstanding.

even at 73 years old is not too late .i should have seen them in Edinburgh in 1972/73 ...just great .!!! from Brittany

Fifty years on, this has to be one best gigs ever. Especially the first three numbers. Why does this band never the recognition it deserves ?
There are many that never got that.

Thank you! :)
Thanks for the information
Thank you.
Jimmy's guitar playing on the only Thunderclap Newman album is tremendous.
Gracias por la data....no los conocía....
50 years od and still as fresh today .
After listening to this four or five times, it just gets better every time. What a wonderful group.
Superb band, saw them with Les Harvey in 71.

James Dewar on keyboards of course.
I thank my uncle for having all of this stuff on vinyl back in the day and giving me a solid listening education, RIP Rob.
I saw them in 1973 at the Apollo in Glasgow,A hometown gig in front of a hometown crowd gigs didn’t get any better than that.
Had forgotten how much I loved this band. Will dig out my vinyls. Saw them when I lived in Edinburgh in the early 70s.
Hello from Edinburgh✌️🤘☯️
RIP Les…… it was never the same without you!
jimmy was much better guitarist i think anyways
Adoro Stone The Crows. Este concerto é um verdadeiro presente! Obrigado por disponibilizá-lo.
How was this singer and guitarist not more famous? What a powerhouse duo....
The guitarist went on to play with Paul McCartney in Wings.
@@JimmyMcCullochFan
Ok thanks... But he still should've been known for his own music such as this...shame
This is first I heard them... And I'm 60...lol
their bass player shared lead vocals and went on to play and sing with Robin Trower on his first 3 albums
@@glennhead4230 Not this bass player.
@@glennhead4230 And he died as well.

great band ilike their all albums &this concert thank you mr.McCullochfan
Used to see them in the UK and they were extraordinary.
She's the best female blues singer of England.
She is most definitely Scottish, but you're right, she is the best British female blues singer, ever..!
She is just amazing. Definitely not English, she is from Glasgow.
