Ann Wilson is the singer and Nancy Wilson was the one playing the acoustic guitar. They are sisters. So many great songs you need to check out from this band!
The legendary Wilson sisters! I was a teenager the first time I heard Ann Wilson and she has remained no. 1 in my ‘heart’ and my list of great singers. Sister Nancy Wilson one of the great guitarists…and can sing too! Commuting to university in Manila, two hour bus ride at break-neck speed where the drivers don’t follow any rules of the road, with all the windows down. The wind blowing bugs into your teeth! With HEART at full volume in the bus’ stereo, speakers in front and the rear of the bus! I can still feel the wind blowing my hair (bald now, sigh) whenever I hear Heart! Check out Heart’s Barracuda!
Heart had a Rock side and a soft Ballad side to their catalog of hits. Try Dog and Butterfly Live in Seattle and Mistral Wind. Two of ny favorites. Amazing in concert!!
If you start to listen to more Heart you will gain insight on the guitar solo Nancy played to intro this performance as it included some opening riffs for a few of their other great songs.
Their live version of "Stairway To Heaven" with the three living members of Led Zeppelin in attendance as well as the late great John Bonham's son on stage playing the drums for them is something to see!
Agreed; Inna just needs to make sure she reacts to the FULL 7:59 version of the performance as there are chopped-versions out there that cut out the entire second verse along with one of Ann's signature voice explosions.
Before any newbie watches that performance they should first get acquainted with the music (and history) of both Heart and Led Zeppelin, otherwise they won't fully understand the impact. Not to say that they couldn't watch it at any time and still be amazed, but you only get to see it once for the first time, and spending a little time listening to their respective catalogs makes it that much more awesome!
Ann Wilson is the rare female vocalist who was able to keep her vocal clarity and power into her sixties. Her cover/tribute of Led Zeppelin's Stairway To Heaven, performed in front of the surviving members of the band, with her sister on acoustic guitar and John Bonham's son on the drum kit, was absolutely stunning.
They weren't under appreciated, they had issues due to the Vietnam War. Ann's boyfriend, the guitarists brother, dodged the draft and the whole band moved to Canada.
I agree, Ann Wilson is my favorite female rock singer. Her sister Nancy playing the acoustic 🎸 also plays a great electric 🎸. Plenty of good songs for you to discover. Barracuda should be your next song. Have a wonderful day. 😊🎉❤
Ann Wilson (lead vocals) joined the band that became Heart in the early 70's... Her younger sister Nancy Wilson (rhythm & acoustic guitar) joined by the mid-70's after Heart had moved to Canada... Their debut album 'Dreamboat Annie' was the first heavy rock album to feature a female lead singer in 1975 and became a hit w/ the singles 'Magic man' ... 'Crazy on you'... 🔥🤘 In 1977, Heart changed record labels and broke big w/ the album 'Little queen'... w/ the hit single 'Barracuda'... They spent the 70's as one of the biggest rock bands in the world. However, the early 80's were difficult after Heart changed members (Ann and Nancy Wilson were the only original members left) and their popularity dropped by 1983... Heart made the decision in 1985 to sign w/ a new label and got an image makeover to look like an 80's glam rock band and had their songs written by outside songwriters & producers. In 1985, Heart's self-titled album was a huge hit on MTV and radio and sold multi-platinum... Despite their renewed success and more platinum-selling records, the music industry was not happy that vocalist Ann Wilson had gained weight in the 80's. In music videos, guitarist Nancy Wilson was prominently featured, while Ann Wilson's plus-size frame was kept out of view. In the early 90's, grunge rock from Seattle (where Heart came from) had dropped Heart's popularity... Heart decided to take a break around 1995. In 2002, Ann and Nancy Wilson reunited in a new Heart line-up and made a comeback to touring and making new records... Sadly, the 2 sisters have been at odds this last decade, but have toured recently. Other Heart songs - 'Even it up' ... 'These dreams' ... 'Alone' ... 'What about love' ... 'All I wanna do is make love to you' ... 'Dog & butterfly'... 🤘🔥
Heart was huge in the 70s and into the 80s. Ann Wilson is considered one of the great rock vocalists, and her sister Nancy is a fantastic guitarist. They have many huge hits.
The fans picked this up that Nancy was putting a bit of more than one song into her intro. lol This is the best live performance I've seen of this song.
Ann (Lead singer) & Nancy (Acoustic guitar) Wilson - HEART. Although the other band members have change over the years, the sisters are still together going strong. My opinion, Ann Wilson has one of the most powerful and beautiful voices ever.
Greatest female rock group ever and top 10 of all groups male or female. Led Zeppelins favorite group. The only group LZ ever gave permission to cover their songs.
These sisters are frigging amazing! 'Barracuda' & 'Alone' are a couple of my favorites, however I think their best performance is at the Kennedy center honoring Led Zepplin & doing Led's biggest hit 'Stairway to heaven' while Led Zeppelin watched the performance. Ann was in her 60's & she & Nancy were still rocking it out. You need to watch Led Zeppelin do their tune first & then watch the tribute. Both performances are amazing.
I went to elementary and highschool in Burnaby B.C., Canada with Ann and Nancy's cousin Grant.I met Ann and Nancy way back when, haven't seen them in quite awhile . Tho they were from Seattle, Washington they spent alot of time in B.C, Canada... they did their recording at Mushroom Studios in Vancouver! They still sound just as great now as way back when.
When "Crazy on You" was released as a single here in Canada, back in the spring of 1976, Heart was everywhere on AM radio, and their album, DREAMBOAT ANNIE, became a household phrase. I remember those days vividly!
The smile you’re wearing is what classic rock does, & at the top are Ann & Nancy Wilson with Heart. Nancy is an absolutely fantastic guitarist & Ann has one of the best voices in rock. Hope you do more Inna!
Led by sisters Ann (lead vocals) & Nancy Wilson (acoustic guitar) Heart was in their prime with their original line up back in the 70's. Nancy can sing too, but Ann is an absolute powerhouse. Heart was often called the "female Led Zeppelin". Check out "Barracuda", "Dog and Butterfly", "Magic Man", "Nada One", "Sing Child, Sing", "Say Hello", and pretty much everything else off of their first 4 albums. They have a lot of great songs later on as well but when their line up changed they went from being a progressive rock band to a pop rock band.
Wow, I can't believe this footage exists. My 1st concert was Heart when I was 14 years old (1st without a parental escort... a big deal when you're 14!).... at Madison Square Garden in NYC. Must have been this tour. How fun to hear this after all these years.
Recorded at Portland Jam, Portland International Raceway. Sat. September 2nd 1978. A few more videos from this concert on RUclips, Straight On, Cook with Fire and High Time.
Ann Wilson is considered one of the best rock vocalists. Nancy Wilson is one of the top tier guitarists of the 70s. Stunning that two such great talents are sisters!
Definitely do more Heart! Their song Barracuda is just my amazing. My personal favourite is Love Alive. Also they did an INSANE tribute of Stairway to Heaven in 2012 at the Kennedy Center where Led Zeppelin was being honoured. It honestly is one of the best covers ever imo.
You probably haven't heard of them because you're not in your 60s age-wise. Being as I am, I feel so lucky to have grown up with so much musical talent available every day. Long live rock!
You don't have to be in your 60s to love this band. I'm 42 and have been a Heart fan for a while. Just sad that I was only born in 82 and was to young to appreciate their 80s stuff.
Ann and Nancy get all the glory, and certainly they are awesome and deserve the accolades. Not only awesome vocalists and musicians, but I had a big crush on those sisters back then too. 😊 But the rest of the original '70s lineup was awesome too, especially Roger Fisher, who is I think an underrated guitar player and one of my inspirations. Apart from Ann's vocals it was largely his guitar playing that attracted me to Heart back in the day. Then Fisher and later bassist Steve Fossen, who are actually the founders of the band, got fired from their own band and Heart basically became the Ann and Nancy show. Then they had a lot of hits with '80s power ballads and gained a lot of new fans, but lost a lot of us original fans.
I agree, I love the lineup with Roger Fisher, and the rest of that Era. IMHO they were the best. Love Magic Man, Crazy on You & Barracuda. The Roger Fisher down and dirty heavy riffs have always been my cup of tea 🤘 That drummer was great too and the others on guitar, keyboards and bass. They were a true powerhouse of a band and the sound was epic.
Saw them a little over 30 years later and they might have sounded even better than they did then. Ann sings most of the songs but a couple of their hit songs has Nancy(her sister and the one playing the acoustic guitar) taking lead vocals. She is no slouch of a singer either.
Heart were huge over here in Canada and the US in the late 70’s. I remember driving around in my car blasting this on the cassette player (yes, a cassette player 😅).
You are in for some happiness. Heart has decades worth of great music for you. A few years ago when Floor Jansen was asked who her favorite singer was, the answer was Ann Wilson.
You need to check out "Magic man" "Barracuda" "Straight on" "Dog and butterfly" and one of their best songs "All I want to do is make love to you" (even though they hated the song because of the subject matter, they were pressured into recording it).
I saw Nancy in an interview where she said on this tour, she started playing whatever came to out for the opening riff where before she played the same one each night. I loved her playing the guitar.
I graduated high school in 1977. I liked all kinds of music; but, mainly Rock and Roll. Favorite Bands were (just to name a few): Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Rolling Stones, and Heart. Great Reaction! Thanks! Glad you seemed to like this song as well as I do. 🙂❤
Got to see them in their prime, still in the top 3 concerts I've ever seen. They absolutely burned the place down. Nancy can play anything with a string on it and Ann can shatter glass with her voice - these two and their band rocked. Lord Have Mercy - they were good ! !
When I first heard it on the radio, I didn't know if there were multiple guitars on the intro, or it was overdubbed. Then a couple months later I saw their first major tour ('77). Holy cow?! That's just Nancy?! On one 6-string guitar?! And for the encore, Ann sat alone at a grand piano under a spotlight and did Without You, which would be on their next album.
INNA…You are so right, great classic rock music transcends time…Ann & Nancy Wilson were some of the first incredibly talented female Rockers to brake down the glass ceiling for women in Rock n’ Roll…
Awesome - yes. Incredible - yes. But also just another incredible awesome song on my car radio in the 70's. There would be another dozen or so NEW ones TOMORROW! It is only NOW that I realize what a FANTASTIC time it was to be a young adult.
Been a fan since the 70s, saw them the 1st time in concert in 1983. Seen them 3 times since. They were still rockin it the last time i saw them in 2017? Their covers of Led Zeppelin are amazing. A must see is their performance of Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Center!
I am SO GLAD you found this version of it with the longer intro. It's the same way on the album only in this live setting, Nancy adds an extra section in the middle of the intro, and then when she hits that final setup for the main part of the song, you can hear the crowd starting to go crazy. Pardon the pun. Definitely should check out both Magic Man and then slightly later, Barracuda. Along with this song, those three were on the radio all the time for years and years. The Wilson sisters also really boosted Ovation by playing their guitars and really championing them them there for a while.
Saw them in 1978 at the first Texas Jam and again in 1980 at the Dallas Civic Center for the King Biscuit Flower Hour. Both were powerful but the second was phenomenal. Since they were on national radio they pulled out all the stops. Every time there were commercials they would leave the stage and then come back on for the next set. It was like they opened four times for us that night over three Hours. I'll never forget how great they were.
It is always a delight to see you discover a new band for you Inna. In respect to Heart, the old saying applies "You ain't seen nothin' yet.". Check out "Barracuda" and "Magic Man".
Nancy sold me on Ovation guitars with this performance. A sound that can't be reproduced on any other brand of guitar. Sure Nancy played other types of guitar during her career, but the sound of an Ovation just can't be beat. Loved your reaction.
Enjoyed your reaction to this classic gem. Heart was actually formed in 1967 by lead guitarist Roger Fisher and bassist Steve Fossen. They became pretty popular throughout the west coast. Playing county fairs, small clubs, music festivals and street fairs. Ann Wilson auditioned for Heart, in 1970, after their first vocalist left. She was immediately hired. Her sister Nancy joined the band in 1974.
I was at this show- The wind was really blowing- and, speaking as a lead vocalist? There's not much harder than trying to sing INTO a wind, trying to project your voice, even with all the amps, etc. You could hear breaths you'd not normally hear in this song from Ann, and her improvisation to overcome this? Was insane- in fact, it helped me to do better, when I eventually had this same issue. Some bands, live? NO DIFFERENT than the album you'd buy. Heart was one of these- Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Journey, AC/DC, just a few of the others. That was always important to me- that bands sound... not, "identical", because all artists like to improvise LIVE- But... just stay true to the song we fell in love with, as these did.
True rock alumni! To weave such beautiful poetry into rock music. I was a willow last night in a dream, I bent down over a clear running stream. Singing a song that heard up above and you kept me alive with your sweet flowing love...

This voice is arguably the best female voice in rock. Yes, they are in the Rock and roll hall of fame.
Only two voices were able to fill my local 16 thousand seat venue- Steven Tyler and Ann Wilson.
Janis Joplin.
@@Caseytify a worthy voice , but she could not compete with Ann’s incredible octave range.
Seattle, representing. Well, "old" Seattle anyways.....
No argument from me!
Ann has the best female rock voice EVER. No question. Truly a great singer
The singer & Blonde regurlar guitarist player are sisters. The Wilson sisters....Legends. Dive in to more of their songs...
Ann Wilson the singer is one of the most bad ass front woman of all time and her sister Nancy is a bad ass guitarist. They are rock n roll.
This music was clearly ahead of it's time. No question about it.
Check out the official music video of "ALONE" --- one of their greatest songs!
Ann Wilson is the singer and Nancy Wilson was the one playing the acoustic guitar. They are sisters. So many great songs you need to check out from this band!
Brings me back to the 70’s when I was still in my 20’s
The legendary Wilson sisters! I was a teenager the first time I heard Ann Wilson and she has remained no. 1 in my ‘heart’ and my list of great singers. Sister Nancy Wilson one of the great guitarists…and can sing too!
Commuting to university in Manila, two hour bus ride at break-neck speed where the drivers don’t follow any rules of the road, with all the windows down. The wind blowing bugs into your teeth! With HEART at full volume in the bus’ stereo, speakers in front and the rear of the bus! I can still feel the wind blowing my hair (bald now, sigh) whenever I hear Heart!
Check out Heart’s Barracuda!
Heart had a Rock side and a soft Ballad side to their catalog of hits. Try Dog and Butterfly Live in Seattle and Mistral Wind. Two of ny favorites. Amazing in concert!!
Nancy's poster is still on my wall, and I'm 65.

I agree as well, but I think she should listen to and react to the original then the full tribute.
Before any newbie watches that performance they should first get acquainted with the music (and history) of both Heart and Led Zeppelin, otherwise they won't fully understand the impact. Not to say that they couldn't watch it at any time and still be amazed, but you only get to see it once for the first time, and spending a little time listening to their respective catalogs makes it that much more awesome!
Yes it is perhaps the best song recorded
@@islandseeker1260 Heart ended up not being too shabby for a Zeppelin cover band, huh? So much so that they are my favorite 70's band, period.
Ann Wilson is the rare female vocalist who was able to keep her vocal clarity and power into her sixties. Her cover/tribute of Led Zeppelin's Stairway To Heaven, performed in front of the surviving members of the band, with her sister on acoustic guitar and John Bonham's son on the drum kit, was absolutely stunning.
❤ Is an American Treasure. Best female rockers ever. Ann Wilson is just phenomenal. Love this.👍💯⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
No question the most under appreciated rock band of the era. Seems it took decades for people to really figure them out and dig back in.
They weren't under appreciated, they had issues due to the Vietnam War. Ann's boyfriend, the guitarists brother, dodged the draft and the whole band moved to Canada.
Legends!!!
I saw them in concert in late 70's. love Heart!
I agree, Ann Wilson is my favorite female rock singer. Her sister Nancy playing the acoustic 🎸 also plays a great electric 🎸. Plenty of good songs for you to discover. Barracuda should be your next song. Have a wonderful day. 😊🎉❤
It’s timeless classic music.

I saw Heart at the 1981 Oregon Jam along with Blue Oyster Cult and Loverboy, Heart was awesome.
Best sister duo and the best voice in rock
The fans picked this up that Nancy was putting a bit of more than one song into her intro. lol This is the best live performance I've seen of this song.
I absolutely love both of these beautiful and talented women.
the Wilson sisters are two of the most bad ass chicks to ever grace the stage then, now and forever
The GREATEST female voice in rock history
Janis Joplin is a VERY close second, but Ann wins the longevity tiebreaker.
This.
The song Magic man from this same performance is incredible.
THE POWER AND RANGE OF ANNS VOICE IS PRACTICALY UNMATCHED IN FEMALE FRONTED ROCK METAL BAND'S
But, she's right there at the top. Linda Ronstadt has done Mexican & a double big band album. Stevie Nicks comes close.
Ann (Lead singer) & Nancy (Acoustic guitar) Wilson - HEART. Although the other band members have change over the years, the sisters are still together going strong. My opinion, Ann Wilson has one of the most powerful and beautiful voices ever.
Inna, I doubt you were even born yet, but the 70's had awesome music!!!!!!!!❤❤
Everything they did was outstanding.. 2 beautiful talented sisters and a great band
you would love listening to their "magic man" song.
This was my favorite song in my junior year in high school when it first came out. Life-long Heart fan ever since.
Greatest female rock group ever and top 10 of all groups male or female. Led Zeppelins favorite group. The only group LZ ever gave permission to cover their songs.
Best female rock vocalist, ever. Ever.
Anne and Nancy are top notch musicians. Heart was a fixture in music from 1973 on.
These sisters are frigging amazing! 'Barracuda' & 'Alone' are a couple of my favorites, however I think their best performance is at the Kennedy center honoring Led Zepplin & doing Led's biggest hit 'Stairway to heaven' while Led Zeppelin watched the performance.

Great version - just can't stand many of the faces in that audience. One of my favorites of theirs is "Love Me Like Music" on their first album.
I went to elementary and highschool in Burnaby B.C., Canada with Ann and Nancy's cousin Grant.I met Ann and Nancy way back when, haven't seen them in quite awhile . Tho they were from Seattle, Washington they spent alot of time in B.C, Canada... they did their recording at Mushroom Studios in Vancouver! They still sound just as great now as way back when.
I saw them live 3 times in the late 1970's. They continued into the 1980's with a more glam persona, but their 70's rock roots were their best work.

Check out their performance of "Magic Man" it is a personal favorite.
Nancy Wilson on guitar and Ann is THE goddess of voice.

Ann Wilson! For more Heart check out "Barracuda" and "Alone"..
Check out 'Barracuda'. The live version for sure!
Much of the Golden Era of music is Timeless
Excellent choice. That's a great performance from a great band.

i saw this tour and I was in love! Great every time I have seen them
Dreamboat Annie, fantastic album
I always thought the Willow and Stream part was beautifully poetic, then I heard their live unplugged version and yea simply incredible.
1 MINUTE SHES BLOWING YOUR MIND WITH HER POWER NEXT MINUTE SHE HAS YOU ON TEARS BY TOUCHING YOUR HEART SOUL BY TOUCHING YOUR FEELS❤❤❤
Saw them a little over 30 years later and they might have sounded even better than they did then. Ann sings most of the songs but a couple of their hit songs has Nancy(her sister and the one playing the acoustic guitar) taking lead vocals. She is no slouch of a singer either.
The Wilson sisters are rock legends and their career spanned over decades with many hits
"Almost as if it were new!" This song and quite a few others from Heart during this [early and mid-70s] era have aged very well.
They have aged so well!
Saw them in 78. Epic band.
Ann Wilson (singer), born June 19, 1950, is still touring in 2023.
Up to this day I have not been able to decide if I like Crazy on you or Barracuda better. Impossible to choose between the two.
That's one of the many things great about music, you don't have to choose, you can love them both.
It's hard to decide, that's a fact.
What I can tell you is that both are great live.
Been there, done that August 16th 1977.
@@vernhoke7730you lucky bastard
Nancy's intro puts CoY over the top for me. Barracuda a really close second.
Heart were huge over here in Canada and the US in the late 70’s. I remember driving around in my car blasting this on the cassette player (yes, a cassette player 😅).
When Nancy Wilson kicks her leg and struts forwad with her hair blowing back, I get chills! Fantastically talented sisters and both gorgeous to boot.
You are in for some happiness. Heart has decades worth of great music for you. A few years ago when Floor Jansen was asked who her favorite singer was, the answer was Ann Wilson.
They are just absolute legends. So many great albums, so many great songs. Try "Alone" powerful ballad, powerful vocals
70s rock baby
You need to check out "Magic man" "Barracuda" "Straight on" "Dog and butterfly" and one of their best songs "All I want to do is make love to you" (even though they hated the song because of the subject matter, they were pressured into recording it).
I saw Nancy in an interview where she said on this tour, she started playing whatever came to out for the opening riff where before she played the same one each night. I loved her playing the guitar.
Get ready to rock 🤘🏼🎸watch the leg kick.
Yes, do the Kennedy Center Honors of Led Zeppelin with Ann Wilson singing.
I graduated high school in 1977. I liked all kinds of music; but, mainly Rock and Roll. Favorite Bands were (just to name a few): Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Rolling Stones, and Heart. Great Reaction! Thanks! Glad you seemed to like this song as well as I do. 🙂❤
Got to see them in their prime, still in the top 3 concerts I've ever seen. They absolutely burned the place down. Nancy can play anything with a string on it and Ann can shatter glass with her voice - these two and their band rocked. Lord Have Mercy - they were good ! !
When I first heard it on the radio, I didn't know if there were multiple guitars on the intro, or it was overdubbed.
Then a couple months later I saw their first major tour ('77).
Holy cow?! That's just Nancy?! On one 6-string guitar?!
And for the encore, Ann sat alone
at a grand piano under a spotlight and did Without You, which would be on their next album.
INNA…You are so right, great classic rock music transcends time…Ann & Nancy Wilson were some of the first incredibly talented female Rockers to brake down the glass ceiling for women in Rock n’ Roll…
Love the vibrato..
Yes u have been under a rock . One of the best bands ever
Cool song. I was 15 when this album was released. One of the first 10 albums I bought.
Awesome - yes. Incredible - yes. But also just another incredible awesome song on my car radio in the 70's. There would be another dozen or so NEW ones TOMORROW! It is only NOW that I realize what a FANTASTIC time it was to be a young adult.
You need to hear the entire album Dream Boat Annie
Been a fan since the 70s, saw them the 1st time in concert in 1983. Seen them 3 times since. They were still rockin it the last time i saw them in 2017? Their covers of Led Zeppelin are amazing. A must see is their performance of Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Center!
I am SO GLAD you found this version of it with the longer intro. It's the same way on the album only in this live setting, Nancy adds an extra section in the middle of the intro, and then when she hits that final setup for the main part of the song, you can hear the crowd starting to go crazy.

Definitely should check out both Magic Man and then slightly later, Barracuda. Along with this song, those three were on the radio all the time for years and years. The Wilson sisters also really boosted Ovation by playing their guitars and really championing them them there for a while.
Saw them in 1978 at the first Texas Jam and again in 1980 at the Dallas Civic Center for the King Biscuit Flower Hour. Both were powerful but the second was phenomenal. Since they were on national radio they pulled out all the stops. Every time there were commercials they would leave the stage and then come back on for the next set. It was like they opened four times for us that night over three Hours. I'll never forget how great they were.
It is always a delight to see you discover a new band for you Inna. In respect to Heart, the old saying applies "You ain't seen nothin' yet.". Check out "Barracuda" and "Magic Man".
I love Ann & Nancy like family. So beautiful, so talented, so inspirational.
You are adorable! So wholesome and pure. I love watching you explore the music of my youth. Keep it up.
Nancy sold me on Ovation guitars with this performance. A sound that can't be reproduced on any other brand of guitar. Sure Nancy played other types of guitar during her career, but the sound of an Ovation just can't be beat. Loved your reaction.
Enjoyed your reaction to this classic gem. Heart was actually formed in 1967 by lead guitarist Roger Fisher and bassist Steve Fossen. They became pretty popular throughout the west coast. Playing county fairs, small clubs, music festivals and street fairs. Ann Wilson auditioned for Heart, in 1970, after their first vocalist left. She was immediately hired. Her sister Nancy joined the band in 1974.
As others have mentioned, another great uptempo number of theirs from this era is "Barracuda."
I was at this show- The wind was really blowing- and, speaking as a lead vocalist? There's not much harder than trying to sing INTO a wind, trying to project your voice, even with all the amps, etc. You could hear breaths you'd not normally hear in this song from Ann, and her improvisation to overcome this? Was insane- in fact, it helped me to do better, when I eventually had this same issue.
Some bands, live? NO DIFFERENT than the album you'd buy. Heart was one of these- Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Journey, AC/DC, just a few of the others. That was always important to me- that bands sound... not, "identical", because all artists like to improvise LIVE- But... just stay true to the song we fell in love with, as these did.
That was incredibly awesome! They can do no wrong! Do early live Mistral Wind
Hello sweetheart and Wilson is the greatest female singer to me of all time. Keep up the good work dear love your reactions
They were great!
Late 60s thru the 70s, never be another era like it!
True rock alumni! To weave such beautiful poetry into rock music. I was a willow last night in a dream, I bent down over a clear running stream. Singing a song that heard up above and you kept me alive with your sweet flowing love...
Doesn't get much better than the Wilson Sisters, and this whole band! SO good!!! Great reaction! :)
❤ Ann and Nancy ❤
Ann Wilson, the greatest female singer in Rock-n-Roll ✌️🙂
