Oldie but Goldie??
That is definitely a yes for me
Yes!! He was previously in a band called Stealer's Wheel. Their hit song is called Stuck In The Middle With You. Could u react to Mexican Radio by Wall of Voodoo?
Miss Bisscute Madalina I offer you 2 songs today for you consideration
1 ) The Hollies ( Long cool woman in a Black Dress 👗 ) Which I personally think fits you very well !!! 😮
2) Quaterflash ( Harden my Heart ♥ ) for the sax 😊
As always the like button 🔳 has been Illuminated 👍
"He looks like he's about to do laundry."😂
I love your impersonation of playing a sax😃
Back in the 1970s, this song was an international hit, around the world. 🌎
International and around the world literally mean the same thing lol.
@@SurvivorBriSo he was, what we call, "putting a finer point on it."
stuck in the middle real banger
When this song was released, there was actually a major increase in saxophone sales. Just another reason why this song is so spectacular
Gerry was from Glasgow, Scotland but is very sadly no longer with us. He will always be remembered for brilliant songs like this one. RIP Gerry.. 💔 🙋♂
He was from Paisley not Glasgow!!!
@@2010wullie Happily corrected, cheers.
The word you were looking for that musicians had back then was TALENT. Something in short supply nowadays.
Love this song. Especially the sax solo. 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 hits with "Baker's Street", "Right Down The Line" & "Night Owl".
This is actually a playback of the original studio recording, and everyone is miming to the track, plus Rafferty is playing bass here (he usually played guitar or occasional keyboards). However, it is nice that the playback was the full album version, rather than the edited-down radio cut. Rafferty was a shy laid-back person who preferred working in the studio over live performing, and he was very big on perfecting the sound and creating great soundscapes - the instrument you thought was a flute sound was actually an electric guitar. The sax solo was supposed to be the chorus of the song, but Gerry couldn't come up with suitable lyrics for it. He originally demo'd it as a guitar solo that he played himself, but decided to change it to a sax solo, which was played on the record by Raphael Ravenscroft.
You are correct about this being the studio track but I don't think they're miming to it. They just took a live track and put the studio recording over it. If they were miming, the lips would be more lined up with the words.
Yes, you can tell if, like I did, you heard the heck out of it back in the 70s. It is the studio version 100%.
The flute sounds are courtesy of a synthesiser not a guitar, probably a Moog synthesizer.
You are right but the reacter gives a shit on it. She reacts because she gets paid for it and she already has forgotten the song.
@zimbo65a - Back at Secondary School, my music teacher was Mr Zimmerman - whom everyone had referred to as just 'Zimbo' 😊
The flute/piano is a Moog Synthesizer.
Flute? what flute ;)
@@BandOfHarjaps The flute sound that she was asking about.
probably a Mellotron.
@@robinfra52 They guy is playing a Moog.
Gerry Rafferty was Scottish, from Glasgow, and he started in a folk group called The Humblebums along with Billy Connolly, who himself went on to be one of the UK's most famous stand up comedians. Gerry went on to form the group, Stealers Wheel which broke up in 1975. He died in January 2011.
One of The Humblebums song was called ( Shoeshine Boy )
Him singing Stuck in the Middle With You with Stealer’s Wheel another all time great song.
Back in the day you actually had to have talent, that's why this music still lives on. Todays hits will be forgotten tomorrow.
A staple of fm radio
When I think of 70s music I think of this song first. It's so mellow and flows so well it just puts you in a good mood. It's a song about everyday life and ordinary people's dreams., something everyone can relate to. When you get that buildup and the sax comes in strong with the guitar riff underneath, it's just another level. And topped off by the great guitar solo at the end. Masterful song.
It is probably a synthesizer being used to make the flute sound. They were used a lot back in the day by many groups. I saw Johnny Cash live and he was singing "Ring of Fire" and the used a synthesizer to make the trumpet harmonies.
I loved listening to this song on the radio, in 1978 while driving to the skookumchuck pulp mill in BC canada for my 12 hour graveyard shift.
The summer of 1978. On my car radio every day---it was my soundtrack.😎
One of the Fathers of Yacht Rock! Great song. He was one of the founding members of Stealers Wheel and their hit was "Stuck In The Middle With You"
The song was released in february 78....the 70's was the best era ....chill AF....cool music every things was cool....no cell phone ....just chillin....
You hit the nail on the head there. Back when I was young in the 70"s you needed talent to record music.
Have always loved this song for the moving instrumentation.
That sax riff, the guitar solo, that oddly charged layed-back sound.
And the lyrics are great stuff delivered by an awesome voice.
You are correct, iconic saxophone 🎷
Bruce Hornsby and the Range. It's just the way it is.
😉👌
😉👌
Totally agree on Bruce Hornsby, but I prefer mandolin rain 😊
Biss you loved it now check out Bruce Hornsby and The Range "That's Just the Way It Is" !! Also by Rafferty "Right Down the Line" is really good👍 👍
These guys are all great studio musicians and played on many other singers albums individually...
I hear this song every day while I'm at work. It always puts me in a good mood. The sax solo is so good. Great reaction Biss!! ❤🎷👏👏
Like myself, he's a songwriter first. Then, he's a singer and bass player. Not easy, not many of us. A rare breed.
Right on down the line!
I recommend Al Stewart's "Year of the Cat" if you like 1970s progressive pop featuring the saxophone.
Loved that one, brought back really great memories of it coming on the car radio and my dad turning it up back in the 70's. Thanks for that. I can suggest Sonny Rollins and John Coltrane for sax but they are pure jazz and no lyrics and I know you like your lyrics. Keep smiling and have fun.
Great song! Really enjoyed your reaction!
This song is an old favorite of mine, the voice the saxophone both bring it! Your reactions are GREAT, you make me SMILE LAUGH and sometimes CRY!! Your accent, facial expressions and spunk are some of the reasons I've come to conclude that your my favorite reaction on RUclips!! I don't know how you can do these without editing, it just amazes me! THANK YOU!!!
like you i love the sax it's the best musical instrument ever made I've enjoyed listening to it since i was 5 yrs old thats 72 yrs😆😅🤣😂
In the 70’s we had rock and roll flutes. 😊
One of the nicest sounding sessions, an easy, listening music that I’ve ever had to listen to close your eyes and just sit back. How are you doing Bisscute
06:47 - it´s called a "monophonic synthesizer" , probably analogic, it´s the first kind of synthesizer. the player could alter the wave form and add effects to create new sounds or try to emulate other instruments. the simple was the wave form of a preexisting instrument, the easier was to the player to find the correct effect to emulate the original instrument. decades after it was created the polyphonic synthesizers and finally the whole process became digital.
Aww, thank you, Biss! This is my favourite song ever! We listened to Gerry Rafferty all the time growing up. He was Scottish, like me. This was from the late 70s (well done for guessing! ). It's about how lonely London can be and Gerry's longing to be back home in Scotland 🙂. He was the coolest dude (another good spot by you!) and wrote some amazing songs, including Stuck in the Middle With You with his band, Stealers Wheel. I can recommend many classics. Btw, this performance wasn't actually live. It was mimed. But he was great live! 🙂
This kind of smooth sound is typical of the soft-rock "adult contemporary" music from the 70s. James Taylor, Carole King, and especially Christopher Cross's "Sailing" are good ones to check out if you want more.
Not a live flute but a Synthesizer Biss you want a 8:25 8:25 great live flute intro review "Cant You See" Marshall Tucker Band at The Grand Old Opera House in 1973 excellent song you won't soon forget 🎸🎸🎸
Always the best. Thanks for your appreciation of timeless music.
a very popular song at the time and still in heavy circulation.
I'd also recommend "right down the line" one of the best love songs ever.
There was a lot of just chill music back in the day.
Yes, that is music, with a high degree of craftmanship, good arrangements, legendary solos (Ravenscroft, the sax player, was a star afterwards) and an intriguing/ thought-provoking lyric. Search for it in this combination nowadays. Love your take on this one.
The flute sound is a keyboard, and the keyboard player looks like he's about to start grinding on that keyboard! LOL
That saxophone is magic.
Getting ready to do laundry... LOL she kills me!
🇨🇦 I am amazed that you have not reacted to this before ! 🇨🇦
' Right Down the Line' by Gerry is my favorite by him.
Same
You’re very entertaining and you’ve really created a great channel. You have very knowledgeable people in the chat with lots of great information. Please keep going!
nice to see you back
Bisscute, you might remember this song from the movie 'Good Will Hunting'. Specifically, the scene when the boys were fighting with each other in the courtyard.
His other band was Stealers Wheel with the song Stuck in the Middle with You
LOVE your FABULOUS REACTION
I love this song
Biss always gets an automatic thumbs up. Best reactor in the game.
Not enough modern songs have saxophone. So sexily sonorous.
Love the sound of saxophone too. This is one of those songs I listen to with my eyes closed, just letting it take me away.
One of the greats.
This song was before my time, but growing up as far as I can remember, I was always in love with the music my parents listened to. This one brings back memories of being in my father's Camaro with my mother and baby brother driving at night going to some destination I can't remember. 😓😩😮💨
This is a CLASSIC favorite of mine and many others circa 1970s. I remember watching a video where a group of saxophone players played the saxophone chorus at the UK Paisley 2021 affair, tribute to Gerry Raferty and it was so cool.
Love your reaction Miss Bisscute thanks for this one, Love your reaction ❤❤❤ oldies are great.
Hello Miss Bisscute, If you like the sax Candy Dulfer "Lily was here" is a must. Enjoy your day ❤
Funny.. I was going to suggest that. Thought I had an original thought 😁Clearly not.
Excellent choice!!!! Friggin great song
Who?
@@edb6690 candy dulfer
@@edb6690 Candy Dulfer, she was the sax player for Prince
4:25..My biggest show ever was about 5000, but I've always been pretty stoic when playing live...just concentrate on the music, sounding good and stay relaxed. Of course, when I first started at about 18 i was really nervous , took my first 15 shows to get over it. 6:32-Yes it's the keys, I got 2 Yamahas with great flute sounds. Such an awesome song and arrangement..It was all the radio for almost the entire year. I knew you'd love this one!
Great song! That Sax really cuts through in amazing way! Gerry Raferty was also in a band called Stealers Wheel, that had another great song called "Stuck In The Middle With You", which now that you've seen "Reservoir Dogs", you have definitely heard. I think those were the only two really big songs that he ever had. Don't get me wrong. I'm sure he has other great stuff, but those are the two big ones that most people would know.
I was planning to comment the same. To say it with Meat Loafs lyrics: "You take the words right out of my mouth". Cheers.
Raphael Ravenscroft on sax.
@@cvs8545 awesome! I did not know that. Thank you!
The entire City to City Album is a great chill out listen.
Back in the 70's and 80's many of these "live performances" were fade to black so to speak. Very common and not unexpected. Still, nice to see this Thanks Biss. 😎👍
One of my favorite songs of all time, so glad you enjoyed it...
Your quite right the synthesizer did the fluty bits.
In my personal opinion, this album is right there with Yellow Brick Road, the Black Album, Days of Future Passed and Dark Side of the Moon. It's definitely one of my forever favorites
Hi 🖐 Miss Bisscute !!! As always I have Illuminated the like button 🔳
Hope you are having a Fantastic Weekend 😊
Another good saxophone song is..
"You Belong to the City" by Glen Frey 😉👍
Loved the way you reacted to the odd slightly off keyboard part. Lots of that in the 70's 80's. Thanks Bisscute.
This isn't a genuine live performance .... it's playback, mime. This is a fantastic song, the guitar, synth, bongos and sax complement eachother so well.
Good react like ever Biss😂❤
rafferty is a legend in the british music scene. made alot of very original music.
Ese es un Superclasico, temazo y una gran banda
The first time I heard this song all those years ago, I predicted it would become a classic. I love being right!😂
In the 60's through the 80"s there were so many of us that there were tons of aspiring musicians and vocalists that were competing for the spotlight. Many of the crews were composed of classically trained musicians that branched out into modern forms. You had to be good to be heard but there were millions of us who were waiting to hear and pay for the privilege. That combination may never come again. Good reaction, as usual. For smooth chill have you listened to Christopher Cross?
Jay Ferguson...'Thunder Island'.....Walter Egan....'Magnet and Steel"....Steely Dan....'My Old School'....Andrew Gold....'Lonely Boy'
I think this is from '77 or '78 if I remember right. the flute sound is from the keys. it was always on the radio!!
The Foo Fighters do an absolutely incredible rock cover of this song.
A great related song would be "Year Of The Cat" by Al Stewart. Those two songs are soundtracks from being a child in the 70s and the music that defined that moment of time. 💯
Love you n your channel, hope your having a great day !!!
I grew up on the radio edit version of this song when I was a kid back in the early 2000s, they didn't play it very often on the radio, but whenever they did I was always so happy. It was such a hidden gem. The radio version is faster tempo and shorter in length. This song will always be one of my absolute favorites of all time, even though was born in the 90s.
Still one of the best 70's songs ❤ ( according to me.)
This is a hidden Gem love it
The Foo Fighters cover of Baker Street is one of my favorite songs of all time.
❤
I remember this coming on at the skating rink as a kid. For some reason we tried to be hitting the curves when the sax solos dropped.
Love that the chorus spot is a sax riff
Yes, that was the keyboard sounding like a flute.
Santa
To answer your question about how he can be so calm and relaxed, he's probably high. They did a lot of that back in the '70s & '80s.
Plus it's a taped song so they are just doing the motions.
It looks like it`s off Top Of The Pops a British music chart television programme, made by the BBC and broadcast weekly from to 1964 to 2006. All the acts were miming You got the odd band that sang live but it was too complicated and time consuming for two small stages and an audience with no gaps between songs .
He sang the song -Stuck in the middle- when he was with the band Stealers Wheel. Made iconic in the movie Reservoir Dogs.
Scottish legend.
And you're gorgeous 😍 on top of the good music!
He was a great entertainer he knew how to make really great music.
Gerry notoriously hated live performances. He always considered himself a studio artist and very rarely ever toured… Arguably the best record of the 70s! ❤
A very fantastic and nostalgic song 😢.
How did they do those flat panel displays back in the day ….it is seamless, looks awesome ☺️
The Peaches Records and Tapes T-Shirt! Gave me chills along with the sax!
Hey biss just relaxin on Father’s Day,always a pleasure listening to you
steely dan "reeling in the years" great guitar solo
