I am Italian. In 1978, when I was in college, I was studying the English language and the teacher suggested that we bring an album of music sung in English and study the lyrics. The album was Al Stewart's "The Year of the Cat" and this song was the second we studied after "Broadway Hotel". So many years have passed, but I still have my vinyl copy of this album on my shelf

Al Stewart is a great Scottish singer-songwriter & folk-rock musician. He was big in the 70's. I had his album "Year Of The Cat" & "Time Passages". All the songs on both are great. "Year Of The Cat" is one of my favorites songs. Love the sax solo.
One cool thing about reactions is that they often inspire me to delve deeper into songs that I've heard forever. Apparently, the year of the cat is a Vietnamese zodiac thing. The song's lyrics are inspired by the movie "Casablanca".
When I feel like mellowing out, I like to listen to him. Another song of his that I like is "On the Border". Thank you, ladies, for starting my weekend mellowed.
THIS IS A MUSICAL MASTERPIECE. AND IS ONE OF THE 500 GREATEST SONGS EVER IN THE HISTORY OF ROCK & ROLL. AL STEWART IS THE ONE PLAYING THE ACOUSTIC GUITAR AND SINGING HERE. THIS IS JUST MUSIC TO MY EARS. IT SEEMS EVERY INSTRUMENT SHOWS UP ON ONE OF THE GRREATEST SONGS EVER WRITTEN. GREAT REACTION AND UPLOAD.
Al Stewart consistently has some of the best, most thoughtful lyrics ever written. I saw him perform in about 1989, and it was unforgettable. You should also listen to "Time Passages".
No one dislikes this song. I mean NO ONE. It's literally not possible to dislike this song. It's not just a beautiful song musically, but the lyrics never cease to transport me to a different and exotic place no matter how many times I hear it, kind of like Chicago's Saturday in the Park, except that that takes me back home.
Kathy, my dear, brass instruments are trumpets, trombones, tubas and such. You are talking about the saxophone, which are part of the woodwind family, which includes saxes, flutes, clarinets, and oboes. Just a friendly FYI. Great song, and glad you did the Iive version for reaction.
There are some who would argue that a sax is a brass instrument as well as a woodwind. When I was a kid, I remember reading from several sources that a sax could be classified as either, although it is generally regarded as a woodwind because it uses a reed like a clarinet or an oboe. Either way, the use of the sax in what might be thought of as a folk-rock song is an interesting choice, as well as the strings and the contrasting solos by acoustic and electric guitar on the record.
@russallert There are some that argue that the earth is flat. There are some that argue over pointless topics just to argue. It makes no difference what the body of the instrument is made of. If you have to blow across a reed, it's a woodwind.
It's a common and understandable mistake given that most saxes are made mostly of brass, or at least appear to be. But yeah, as my high school music appreciation teacher made sure to let us know (or was it my college jazz history professor), it's a woodwind.
The visual content was Al and band live on stage. The audio was from the original album, studio recording. That's why the sight and sound didn't match up so good. Good for you to realize that instead of just being asleep and unaware of that throughout it.
Yeah, I actually enjoy this more. I was ready to stop it if it wasn't the studio version. It's a classic work of art. There's no way a live version can be as good. That don't mean I wouldn't watch a live version; I just don't want someone hearing a live version the first time they hear the song.
My wife and I saw him back in the 90s in a small club in San Juan Capistrano. He had a smaller band and they had acoustic instruments. They were very good. Another Al Stewart song to check out is On The Border.
This song completely describes my first liberty call in the Philippines during my first WestPac in the Navy. Subic Bay - yes! Olongapo - yes! I did miss my ride back with my shipmates but took a jeepney back later after a few San Miguels. Balut was experienced next liberty call. Sailors can relate....
Bro, I also had the Olongapo experience on WestPac 1974/5. We hit Subic early Oct and it was hot af there and Marcos had instituted martial law so Cinderella liberty was in effect. Shoot to kill orders for violators of curfew still on the streets. Saw Balut and heard the Balut sellers in the early morning when curfew was lifted but never ate it!
I was only 15 when this song came out and even if i didn't really know what the song was about it had something mysterious about it which sucked you in with the lyrics which are brilliant and musically it was awesome with all of the different instruments all getting their chance to shine. Where are songs like this now?
Kathy -- you do a great job on your editing. All of your hard work has paid off. Y'all's channel is one of the most enjoyable RVC's on RUclips. Year Of The Cat -- both album and song -- are recordings where the adjective "amazing" is not an overstatement. It was one of the albums in my 70's collection that I played a lot. And as y'all both know, there were a ton of great albums out there by the time this album came out.
0:29 There is no Year of the Cat in the Chinese zodiac, but Al explained that his lady friend was reading a book on the Vietnamese zodiac at the time, which is different, and that was the page that was open. I attended his concert in the Royal Albert Hall on 22 May 2015 when he mentioned that the lady in question was in the audience. The saxophonist then went right down into the arena and serenaded her with his solo, which was a really nice romantic gesture.
I have always liked this song since it came out, around 1976. It was engieered by Alan Parsons who also workd on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. He also brought in the singer who sang 'The Great Gig in the Sky'.
Alastair Ian Stewart is a Scottish-born singer-songwriter and folk-rock musician who rose to prominence as part of the British folk revival in the 1960s and 1970s. He developed a unique style of combining folk-rock songs with tales of characters and events from history. He is 78 and is still touring.
Great song. The visuals were from a live performance, but the sound was the studio recording, which is why the sound did not line up 100% with the video.
This looks very much as if they took the 45 version of the song and paired it with the live footage from Grey Whistle Test. Since OGWT is usually reliably live, I doubt they were miming. Somebody just slapped the other music onto the live footage. Al's recorded music stretches from 1968 to 2008, and though he has stopped making albums he is still touring; I saw him last year here in Tacoma with his current band, the Empty Pockets. His albums "Year of the Cat" (1976) and "Time Passages" (1978) were his 7th and 8th albums, both top 10 in the US. They produced three of his four top-40 singles, YOTC, Time Passages, and Song on the Radio. There's not a single clunker on either album. His music often treats historical subjects (he has a whole album dedicated to the time period between the two world wars), and many of the songs are very theatrical, such as this one and "Night Train to Munich" off the "Between the Wars" album (1995).
I have been a fan of Al Stewart for over 50 years. He has a very deep catalog. Road To Moscow is a stunning track. Love Chronicles is the first song I heard by him, it has some beautiful guitar work by Jimmy Page.
I always loved Al Stewart's voice! This was a big hit and I have heard it in many places that I go to. The following album after this was Time Passages. The title track and Song on the Radio are two good ones from him!
Great reaction. Kathy, if you really want to hear how good the sax player is, listen to Song On The Radio. That's another great Al Stewart song. I had the pleasure of meeting the sax player here in Nashville. His name is Phil Kenzie. Very nice guy.
The Cat is not in the Chinese Zodiac , it is however in the Vietnamese Zodiac. I believe the song and lyrics were drawn more from the movie Casablanca , hence the Peter Lorre reference. Per the Fiancial Times , Stewert's girlfriend left a book of Vietnamese astrology open at the page for the Year Of The Cat , then just beginning . In the Vietnamese zodiac the Cat is one of the twelve signs. At the time of the song's release , the most recent Year Of The Cat had been Feb 11th 1975 to Jan 30th 1976 , thus the song was writtem and recorded during the Year Of The Cat.
Ah! the time when The Old Grey Whistle Test tv series, which is by the way what you were watching went from live performances to miming ruined what was at that time the best rock music outlet on British tv. Such a shame. Was introduced to so many bands by this iconic show, Pat benetar ,ZZTop, Tom Petty, Patty Smith. The list is endless. Good times.
So...Lulu is off "Jet Setting" again huh? You are going to have to get that girl a personal assistant to keep her diary and schedule appointments as well as a set of handcuffs to attach her to the chair for the full 3 generation reactions!😅 I'm with you Kathy I love the saxophone I get shivers down my spine!❤ Nearly bought one once a friend of a friend maintains all the brass instruments for the Northern Symphonia Orchestra and teaches sax and clarinet. Tried selling me one let me have a try before you buy lesson. That was enough to convince me 'I don't have the time to devote to learning to play sax.' If you like sax let me suggest you listen to a couple of tunes. 1. Will You by Hazel O'connor the sax solo in that will blow your mind. 2. Your Latest Trick by Dire Straits from a concert they did in Basel. Chris White on Sax does a great solo. At the same concert Paul Franklin gives a masterclass performance on the steel guitar. 😊
Apparently, Al Stewart is from Scotland... he has been singing since the 60's and debuted in 1967... 'Year of the Cat' was released in 1976 and became his first platinum success in the US... It has 2 of my faves by Al Stewart - 'On the border'... 'One stage before'... 🔥🔥 His next album 'Time passages' in 1978 also became a platinum success in the US. His popularity declined in the 80's... by Al Stewart released new music until 2008.
well I just ran across this and doubt you well read this but here goes. Most of the live performances you see are actually the studio album version. There was a lot of violins and a few other instruments that were not in the video. Whenever you see a live vid and the words dont match the mouth movement or the sound is excellent. That gives it away that its not a real live version. This dubbing over has really caught fire in the last few years on live performances
I was going through all the songs I had on my many iPods I've brought through the years. There were so many artists and songs I had forgotten how good they still are. This made me come up with some suggestions that I hope that you will react to. I love your channel! Keep the music playing!

A movie runs through my mind every time I hear this beautiful song.
The BEST line in any song ever - "She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
Like a watercolor in the rain" 👍👍👍👍👍

"Year of the Cat" is my all time favorite song. I also love Al Stewart's "Time Passages" and "End of the Day."
One of the greatest instrumental breaks in rock history. Timeless.
Some of the greatest lyrics ever penned IMHO. ✌️❤️🎵🎶
The entire album is just tremendous!

Great song ...great musicians..excellent arrangement.
Oneofthebestsongs ever written…has it all.
That song still holds up. I reminds me of my old transistor radio on the AM stations. Good pick.
Great smooth Jazz. Al was a smooth musician.
Good Choice for a Reaction video.

❤ I love that you are sharing with Mom. I am so her.
Al Stewart has produced some fantastic albums. He tells some brilliant stories usually historical.
Though the producer on this album was the legendary Alan Parsons :-)
Big tune in the 70s. Always on the radio. Part of the soundtrack of my youth. Thanks lovely ladies for the reaction.
Glad you enjoyed it
That was wonderful and yes , sound does not always match. Great song, great reaction and IO too love the sax. Have a wonderful day
Thank you! You too!
One of my all time favourites
I was in junior high school when this song came out, I remember really loving it.
No one dislikes this song. I mean NO ONE. It's literally not possible to dislike this song. It's not just a beautiful song musically, but the lyrics never cease to transport me to a different and exotic place no matter how many times I hear it, kind of like Chicago's Saturday in the Park, except that that takes me back home.
Acoustic guitar, violin, saxaphone, electric-guitar, piano = all featured. I agree with Donna, "It's Awesome". This song is a GEM!
The best song of all times!!! Similar quality of Whiter Shade of Pale by Procol Harum!
Beautiful song.
Complex but simple.
Very nostalgic from my youth.✌️👍❤️

@@MikeBruno-qt5es Yes. it's most evident during the acoustic guitar solo which is played on the video on an electric guitar.

Al Steward and his group probably didn`t realize at that moment they would have been making history by playing this wonderful song.
My wife and I saw him back in the 90s in a small club in San Juan Capistrano. He had a smaller band and they had acoustic instruments. They were very good. Another Al Stewart song to check out is On The Border.
Your editing skills are fine BTW.
They used to play this in malls and big stores as background music.
Good easy listening.
This song completely describes my first liberty call in the Philippines during my first WestPac in the Navy. Subic Bay - yes! Olongapo - yes! I did miss my ride back with my shipmates but took a jeepney back later after a few San Miguels. Balut was experienced next liberty call. Sailors can relate....

One of the evergreens. Never out of age
Another great track is Time Passages or Dark Water!
A fellow Scot and Great Scottish singer songwriter love his songs one of my favourites iS ' The Road to Moscow..

They did their best to sync this live performance to what you hear: the studio version - the nylon string solo shown here on a Telecaster.
Looks Al Stewart’s songs, Time Passages is another great one, easy going, upbeat, very nice!
There is no way to overstate how huge this album was in 1976...and "On the Border...what a great year....
0:29 There is no Year of the Cat in the Chinese zodiac, but Al explained that his lady friend was reading a book on the Vietnamese zodiac at the time, which is different, and that was the page that was open.

They got the wrong version! The studio version, in this case, surpasses the live version. A wonderful classic. Greetings from Tandil, Argentina! 🇦🇷🤗
A perfect song! The longer it plays the better it gets.

I love your accents, super good as well as the song..
Al Stewart use of words and historical story telling is amazing. Try some of his earlier songs - Roads to Moscow springs to mind!

He is pretty much the UK version of Bob Dylan-very intricate lyrics.
This is the albumversion, isn`t it? Played live!! A miracle!!!
This is clearly an edited studio recording played over the top of a live performance. Nevertheless, it is one of the finest songs I've ever heard.
Gorgeous song❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
When they said they both had not heard it, I'm thinkin' "not possible"......

My favorite Al Stewart is "Time Passages"
"On the Border" (1976). Produced by Alan Parsons. 🎸
I'm a dragon too! This is a GREAT song from the 70s, it was a big hit. Also, you much check out Time Passages by Al Stewart as well. Both great songs.
I have seen Al Stewart live a few years ago, he is still brilliant and my favourite song by him is house of clocks, you should give it a listen
I don’t hear any brass instruments in this song. Could be wrong. Sax is made of brass, but it’s a woodwind instrument.
Another great reaction!
Glad you enjoyed
Such inventive music. Classic.
beautiful song....Casablanca ..great movie too...On a Morning from a Bogart Movie....Peter Lorre contemplating a crime
ROADS TO MOSCOW AND ON THE BORDER ARE TWO GREAT SONGS BY AL STEWART.
Great reaction. Kathy, if you really want to hear how good the sax player is, listen to Song On The Radio. That's another great Al Stewart song. I had the pleasure of meeting the sax player here in Nashville. His name is Phil Kenzie. Very nice guy.
Try the album cut. This version skips a big chunk of the song before the instrumental break.
You're right. He has said that this song was born from the title of a magazine article about Chinese Astrology and The Year of the Cat.
The Cat is not in the Chinese Zodiac , it is however in the Vietnamese Zodiac. I believe the song and lyrics were drawn more from the movie Casablanca , hence the Peter Lorre reference. Per the Fiancial Times , Stewert's girlfriend left a book of Vietnamese astrology open at the page for the Year Of The Cat , then just beginning . In the Vietnamese zodiac the Cat is one of the twelve signs. At the time of the song's release , the most recent Year Of The Cat had been Feb 11th 1975 to Jan 30th 1976 , thus the song was writtem and recorded during the Year Of The Cat.
Correction* Vietnamese Astrology.
@@rogerdaly6326 yes, but in spite of my memory glitch, he did get the initial idea from an article title on the front of an astrology magazine.
When is somebody going to be brave enough to tackle Al's " Magnum Opus" , the wonderful " Love Chronicles"
It sounded like the studio version frankly.
The song was edited shorter (maybe for a tv show). The chorus before the instrumental was edited out. Still a wonderful song.
In a word ... Smooth.
I was born in the year of the cat.
Ah! the time when The Old Grey Whistle Test tv series, which is by the way what you were watching went from live performances to miming ruined what was at that time the best rock music outlet on British tv. Such a shame. Was introduced to so many bands by this iconic show, Pat benetar ,ZZTop, Tom Petty, Patty Smith. The list is endless. Good times.
this one, 'time passages',and 'song on the radio' are worth reactions.
good job ladies
Thanks
So...Lulu is off "Jet Setting" again huh?
You are going to have to get that girl a personal assistant to keep her diary and schedule appointments as well as a set of handcuffs to attach her to the chair for the full 3 generation reactions!😅
I'm with you Kathy I love the saxophone I get shivers down my spine!❤
Nearly bought one once a friend of a friend maintains all the brass instruments for the Northern Symphonia Orchestra and teaches sax and clarinet.
Tried selling me one let me have a try before you buy lesson. That was enough to convince me 'I don't have the time to devote to learning to play sax.'
If you like sax let me suggest you listen to a couple of tunes.
1. Will You by Hazel O'connor the sax solo in that will blow your mind.
2. Your Latest Trick by Dire Straits from a concert they did in Basel. Chris White on Sax does a great solo. At the same concert Paul Franklin gives a masterclass performance on the steel guitar.

Lulu is a very busy girl. Lol
Time Passages is another good one from him

The Chinese calendar is the part of the meaning, i was born in 1958 the year of the Dog, Google your birth year for your animal

WARNING: Gratuitous use of Sax and Violins. 😊
You should listen to Hocus Pocus by Focus
sorry if this was pointed out long ago, but the sound doesn't match in this case because they're lip syncing
The music sounds exactly (to me) like the released version so they were probably lip synching.
They were lip-synching. The music was from the studio recording.
If you liked the sax Do listen to this 5hazel O'Connor - Will you? fom the film Breaking Glass) : ruclips.net/video/Ou96vLl--e4/видео.html
Don't mind the 80's style!
This isn't live, honey. It's lip-synced. This is the studio version, which is better anyway.
Try Time Passages or Song On The Radio.
