    Baker Street is another great Gerry Rafferty song. It has the one of the most iconic saxophone riffs in the history of rock music.

    Love this song. In 1972 Gerry Rafferty was in the Scottish folk rock band Stealers Wheel & had a big hit with "Stuck In The Middle With You". Later on, he went out on his own & then had the big hits "Baker's Street", "Right Down The Line" & "Night Owl".

    Well..after 4 days of night shift here at my Delta 4 Camp Base where I´m stationed it was a pleasant surprise to hear this song reacted by Britt, when I requested this I never thought she would play it to be honest. It reminded me back in the late 70s being a kid and burning my fingers on those numbers phones dialing the request line of Y95 Tampa Bay my hometown to request this song. Watching Britt´s reaction through many 70s song in her channel I am positive 100% she would have loved to grow up in those 70s like many of us did from kids to teens...eventhough there were no internet no cell phones...OMG...but we had the time of our lives...she recently reacts to Archie Bunker, that was a sitcom very popular and I recall coming home from school with my bike long tube socks from sears...vintage baseball raglan tees and my Dad watching ARCHIE or Three´s Company. Anyhow Britt I wnat to thank you for playing my request, and eventhough it´s not good times for us here we are proud of serving the US Marines Corp. And let me send a warm nice cheers to all folks in your channel. Thanx you Rock!

    So many songs in the 70's and 80's (most of them) were about being in love, looking for love, staying in love, losing love, hoping for love, how much I love you, and more. These were positive songs or songs about hope. Compare this to the songs that have been coming out for the past 20 years or more. This is why the older generation has a more positive outlook. That was part of our culture.

    The 70's music was the best for my generation, I was in my PRIME! 21 - 30 years old. Blaring the radio driving to and from work, later joing the Air Force, then eventually getting married and raising a family. It only got harder, and there was way less time with radio and playing my records. It was all about the kids and eventually the grand kids. Time passes, lives change, music changes and we find new music. But the stuff from our "prime" years are what really sticks with us.

    The great Gerry Rafferty. My favourite singer / songwriter. He has a huge catalogue of wonderful songs. Most always reference Baker Street, and whilst it is certainly a masterpiece & the one he’s known best for, songs such as Whatever’s written in your Heart, Don’t Speak of My Heart, The Royal Mile, Light of Love, A Dangerous Age, Winters Come, Family Tree & the utterly fantastic Shipyard Town are just a few other masterpieces of which many are based on Gerry’s own life experiences. A true musical genius. RIP Sir. I salute you.

    It’s cool seeing so many youngins reacting to these timeless classics. Being 57 I was just old enough to know I was hearing gold. This single and others like it were flooding the airwaves back then. Imagine a time in history when car stereos had 8-track players, moms drove station wagons with CB radios ,TVs only had a max of four stations and only the forth station if we had our young sister or bother wrapped in tinfoil holding the antenna. We can’t bring back the 70s but we can keep the classics alive. Groovy job! Aloha

I am always engaged entertained , and excited to see where it's going to take you and where you take us. I was 15 when this puppy dropped on the scene. You are not wrong the Seveties were pretty special. Sure 😢 do miss them LOL . Keep it up and I will keep cherry 🍒 picking. I particularly like when you react to bands that I have seen. MY very first real concert was an out of town by train on my own to another city where u attended a Beach Boys concert 1974. I was 11 and my 14 year old cousin came with from a different town but close enough we stayed there. My mom was big on music and it played everyday in our house. The concert was my 11th Birthday Present 🎁 and never forgotten. I was in my own clubbing band at 20. I am 61 and still play guitar everyday.. I have seen pop to classic, country to metal.lots and lots of concerts.. All my kids adults bow play something. I am off toa concert this Saturday (Punk) Daughter is a bass player in one of the bands that does all originals .

    One of the best thing about the mid to late 70's was that you had choices for so much good music to fit your mood. You had this that was Adult Oriented/Middle Of The Road/Contemporary Rock and then you had the rock/hard rock/progressive stations and a lot of us bounced back and forth between them and a lot of us were fans of most all of the rock music.
    In my collection in the late 70's you would dind Zeppelin/The Cars/Gerry Rafferty/Al Stewart/Pink Floyd/Foreigner/Pablo Cruise/Ambrosia/Yes/ELP/The Police//Allman Brothers/Alan Parsons Project/Kanasa and too many more to list.

    Great song, great vibe. Reminds me a lot of ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) - check out "Showdown". Some organ, some stylized vocals, rich, layered sound. Also a straight-ahead love song, which we don't get enough of. Innocent like the time period. Funny how people have problems with autotune, though - lots of songs from this period had some sort of affect on the vocals, and it gives them an interesting, unique feeling.
