    Saw this band live in 1980. They were great. Part of that Southern Rock swell started by the Allmans. Lead man Rickey Medlocke was actually the first drummer for Skynyrd, and has toured with them for many recent years. The man's a rock legend and needs to be in the R&R HOF.

      Blackfoot was apart at the time and Bob Burns was gone from Skynyrd at the time Rickey could play the drums besides the guitar so he filled in on some early recordings and so did Greg T Walker from Blackfoot filled in on bass

    I met these guys at a hotel I worked at in Winston-Salem, NC back in the late 80’s. One of the guys heard two girls asking me at the front desk if Blackfoot was staying there. Not two minutes later Ricky Medlock (sp?) and one other came down to the lobby and visited with the two young ladies for about 20 minutes. That has stuck with me ever since. Nicest bunch of folks you’d ever want to meet. Love your reactions! Keep up the good work.

    Blackfoot’s lead singer Ricky Medlock has been a member of Lynyrd Skynyrd on several occasions both before and after Skynyrd’s plane crash. He has even sung lead on a few of their songs. My favorite is the song White Dove.

    I was lucky to see Blackfoot live in ‘80 , Jackson TN. This is their best song, hands down. Naturally dynamic, with the shimmering guitar intro, the stomping guitar riff, searing guitar solo, and Rickey Medlock’s ballsy voice, this is pure southern rock gold! Thanks for sharing!! In the current era of over processed, over produced, and digitally corrected music, it’s refreshing to reach back and pull out honest guitar driven songs like this.

    Lynard Skynard and Blackfoot grew up together . Not only is Ricky the current guitarist for Lynard , he and Greg Walker or on the song Simple Man by Lynard . Rick is actually playing the drums , Greg on Bass . Also , little known fact about Rick , the Guitarist/Singer of Blackfoot . He lost a lung to cancer at 10 years old , so think about singing with just one lung .

    • @keithsexton1263
      @keithsexton1263 7 месяцев назад

      Him and Greg are not on Simple Man they were both on a few early recordings but not that and I always thought he was born with 1 lung and learn how to spell Lynyrd Skynyrd it's not Lynard Skynard, maybe that's why your statements aren't right

    Blackfoot's history literally starts with Lynyrd Skynyrd. Rickey Medlocke, the lead singer, guitar player and creator of Blackfoot grew up and went to school with the Skynyrd boys and was one their original drummers. He was even on some of Skynyrd's earliest recordings which can be heard on their complete Muscle Shoal's album.

    Another great southern rock band and they have certainly been overlooked here on RUclips, they were a very popular band especially in the mid-western and southern states. Here's another song by Blackfoot, in case you're interested "Blackfoot - Diary Of A Workingman - Lyrics"

  • @stevedahlberg8680
    @stevedahlberg8680 Год назад +11

    That's funny man. You know, the huge hits off the album were Train Train, including that really amazing harp intro. And then of course Highway song, which I remember your reaction to.
    But that whole album, Blackfoot Strikes was amazing. And this is one of my favorite songs off it. And another one and that direction along this line is called Wishing Well. It totally kicks and the sentiment has some really great things to express.
    But Rickey Medlocke and Lynyrd Skynyrd were closely meshed. There is some fantastic material from Rickey medlocke singing lead with Lynyrd Skynyrd. On the one hand you've got White Dove, which is one of the most beautiful and haunting songs I've ever heard. It's largely seen as a war protest song once all the men dying in Vietnam just kept going on and on. But really it could be applied to anything. Any feeling of just extreme sadness and out of connection with what you would think would be reality, and yearning for something simple and pure. It's incredible.
    But also, his lead vocals on Preacher's Daughter is so fun. And the whole song arrangement is fire. And by the way, Ricky is also an incredible hard rock drummer.

    Rickey Medlocke is just simply awesome. Great singer and fantastic guitar player. He's now Lynytd Skynyrd's guitar player. He reformed Blackfoot with all new members appearing on one song and Co- writing some of the others. No they're not as good as the original Blackfoot but in my opinion they rock.
    The drummer was the late Jackson Spires. Without any doubt the most underrated drummer in rock.

She's a 17 year old blind girl from Indonesia, and this video is only seven days old, with 31 million views. Simon is so impressed, he has her sing another song after a beautiful song that she wrote herself. She's so adorable, upbeat, and talented she'll make you cry.

They peaked around that time and were never the same after Rick and Charlie Hargett left the group in 1984.

    Great song and kick butt band, I saw them open for UFO back around 1980 and both bands were fire that night, they melted the Orpheum Theater in Boston! For more excellent Blackfoot, look for their live rendition of Free's classic Wishing Well, try out UFO and their legendary song Lights Out, both those tunes are bangers and great songs. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎹🎶

      I saw them a year later at The Orpheum with Def Leppard opening for them. It was my second concert, and both bands were amazing! My daughter just got a stereo with a turntable, so I'm going to see how well I took care of my Blackfoot, and other, albums.

      They should do UFO. One of the best Classic Hard Rock bands ever. Lots of Great songs. The one you mentioned. But also Rock Bottom, Love To Love, Mother Mary, Natural Thing, Let It Roll, Out In The Streets, Pack It Up And Go. And Lots More. It,s about Time. Ufo is largely forgotten.

    Saw them with my son in 2000 or thereabouts. Ricky was not 5 ft from us as we sat on the edge of the stage right in front of the mains.(small venue, bar in Chatt,) I was a huge fan and our band played their songs so I was singing just as loud as I could looking right at Ricky and he grinned cuz I think he heard me. Good times.

    Lynyrd Skynyrd, Blackfoot, .38 Special, & Molly Hatchet all came out of Jacksonville, Florida and all would eventually go on to ink big album deals and taste rock stardom in the 1970's & 1980's. Another legendary southern rock band, The Outlaws, is also a Florida band. From Tampa if memory serves.

    Also , this is so funny , my Brother and I , both guitarist , were talking about Ricky on Sunday . Here in our area , Tidewater Va , in the summer they have a day in Hampton called Bay Days . Well back in '98 , '99 , can't remember which year , Lynard was playing in front of the City Hall , I took a short cut , walked right by Ricky , not 10 feet from him and didn't even realize until later that evening , talk about missed opportunities .

    I had the pleasure of meeting Rick and Greg in 1980 at A Howard Johnsons in Indianapolis. I was getting ready to ship out to basic training the next day, and a guy in line in front of me mentioned who they were and of course I didn't believe him so he called out Ricks name, and sure enough they stopped and talked to us and even made sure we had a free pass to see them that night at Market Square. The next day I woke up at 3:30am and got my head shaved and loaded up in a cattle car. Lol

    Rickey Medlocke BRINGS IT, once more! There's a reason I was calling for this one.
    Of course, I've been calling for "Diary of a Working Man" even louder, y'all might recall. So…next?
    (Although "Fly Away" doesn't suck, either, and there's a nice live video for that.)
    And if you want even HARDER stuff, there's always Bloodrock, who were out of Dallas. "D.O.A." actually nearly got banned from the radio, which would have been a shame.
    Your classic Blackfoot line-up:
    Rickey Medlocke- rhythm guitar, vocals, songwriting
    Charlie Hargrett-lead guitar
    Greg T. Walker (there's a different Greg Walker who sang for Santana)-bass, backing vocals, keyboards
    Jakson Spires-drums, backing vocals
    (I didn't know that Ken Hensley, the main force in Uriah Heep, had joined in the 1980s for two albums, when Heep were broken up. Tbh, I think Ken might have been out of gas; he wrote most of Heep's work, but only one song for Blackfoot ["Send Me an Angel"] and it's nice enough, but IMO rather generic. No reason he couldn't have sold it to Krokus or whomever.
    And then Blackfoot broke up, too. Huh.)
