    Burton Cummings (the Guess Who) had one of the best rock voices, but weirdly contrasting, on stage looked like he was part of Vegas lounge act. Love these posts of the Midnight Special!

    • @michaelcontakis428
      @michaelcontakis428 6 месяцев назад +6

      Yeah he was probably 10 years too early going with the ‘clean cut’ look. 1974 was still in the middle of the hard rock era.

Even though my folks didn’t listen to most of the music (think Carpenters and Johnny Mathis), I knew it was something awesome to behold. Rediscovering these amazing artists who performed LIVE leaves me in awe every time. What a treasure trove ☮️💜🎶

      I’ll quote the article:
      “the seeds of the song…had been sown by bassist/vocalist Martin Turner’s memories of a teenage summer romance in his home town of Torquay. Turner had briefly become entwined with Swedish exchange student Annalena Nordstrom, whose hair was ‘golden brown…
      Neither spoke the other’s language, and when Turner asked whether he could give her a kiss, she told him falteringly: “You can try.”
      Although the romance fizzled out after Nordstrom returned home, the experience ignited what Turner calls “a glorious anthem to the spirit of love”. “

      Summer romance and then they had to depart to their respective homes, countries. Believe many of us have had this same experience, I did at age 17 while visiting my grandmother out of state. He and I shared “stares” for weeks (I’ll never forget his gorgeous chocolate brown eyes with long dark eyelashes), when finally, he approached me 3 days before I had to return home 1,200 miles away. He was my 1st real kiss and we wrote letters to each other exchanging SR HS class pics and calling a few times, he was going to fly out to visit over the Christmas break, I remember asking my dad for permission. But life, had other plans and our Senior high school year took over. Thanks for the trip down memory lane and first loves, they are so strong and memorable 💞💟.

The Guess Who bringing the hits that made for the soundtrack of the 70s. Slade is always hot, I knew David Essex for Rock On but the Midnight Special has turned me on a lot of his good songs. Sha Na Na is always a hoot, no wonder they had their own show later. Loe Kottke was a Suprise the 1st time I saw him here, he's always entertaining.

    In 1987 Burton Cummings played a solo show at a club I worked at in Chicago. Was such a nice guy, and was in great voice. Before he sang “These Eyes”, he told the crowd that he was a lot older than when the song was first recorded, and he wasn’t sure if he could hit all the notes. But he did, and it was exquisite.

    Burton Cummings should be in everyone’s top 10 rock vocalists of all time. That lead guitarist does a great job in the Randy Bachman role. Also, that American Woman riff sounds very Zeppelin-ish. Jimmy Page was a huge fan of the Guess Who. The riff as it’s played here is hypnotic - reminds me of Four Sticks

    Wow- Just a great episode of a great show. So many memory's. The first song Wishbone Ash played was one of the first songs I learned on the guitar. Sha Na Na blew me away. And of course the Guess Who-just great - I wonder how many joints I smoked with my friends listening to them? LOL A LOT LOL

    Just listening to this episode and the announcement of the next episode makes me feel so depressed at the state of popular music today. I am so happy to have had the privilege to have grown up with the Midnight Special and all the incredible artists of my youth and I feel so bad for the youth of today who have nothing but cookie cutter artists to listen to.
    EDIT: I have to add that I forgot that Burton Cummings was ever SO YOUNG!!! LOLOL

    Slade. Where did they come up with their unusual name?
    My favorite song of theirs is the lively ‘84 “Run Runaway.” What a great and entertaining band - SO FUN to watch!
    Has anyone EVER heard of a man or boy with ‘Slade’ as a 1st name? My ex husband an artist & bass player (deceased), wanted to name our son this, I disagreed and won out ha!
    It had to have come from the band? Right?
    This will always make me wonder, hmmm.

      inspired by Baverstock's secretary (A&R at Philips Records) who had named her handbag Ambrose and her shoes Slade
      they were originally called The 'N Betweens then Ambrose Slade in the 70s just Slade

      You worked in Timor? How’d you go from OK all the way to SE Asia? That’s so cool, I had to look it up it looks so beautiful there.
      Bama as in Alabama or Nigeria? Ha! You’re making me bone up on my geography. This is so fun and I’m glad someone has the 1st name of Slade. Wonder if he was named after the band? Hmmm …😁 😂

      @@ravynskye1310 You have just answered a fifty year mystery of mine too. I was an American closet Slade fanatic and have watched every interview and documentary I could find on the boys and never until today knew where their name came from….. Just last year I made pilgrimage to Liverpool to see the Beatles beginnings. I went to the Cavern Club and was most excited to see Noddy Holders autograph on a board at the entrance.
