🎉 still here listening this beautiful song from my childhood 70s 🎉great time 🎉 ARS great time to be alive good old days and memories is 2024 love it 🎉❤ classic masterpiece 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
Ronnie- oh my heart ❤. Barry was such a phenomenial guitarist... and Paul was one of the most criminally underrated bass players of all time. This is a gem 🙏
When the record execs told Mr. Goddard that he had to "dress like a rock star", he continued to wear slacks from JcPenney or Sears, as he had always done. He was the salt of the earth as was Mr. Hammond who later left music and became an accomplished carpenter and house framer. I believe someone I knew in the south actually knew him in the buildings trades.
Love their music! These men were the best of the best to me. All this talent and now they are all passed. Glad they happened in my time! God Bless their families for sharing them with us!!😊😊❤❤❤
It was during the disco era when these guys hit. When AM radio ruled the air. FM radio started to become popular and mainstream... Thank You ARS ... thank you...
🎉❤ still here listening this beautiful song brother 70s one best era 🎉great time 🎉happy and good old and memories is 2024 classic masterpiece love it 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
I knew all the words to this as a kid in the 70s. I would sing this all the time. No punishment from family nor judgement from friends. Now as an adult, I still sing it..now as my anthem.
Amazing song, amazing group of session musicians from Atlanta. I was 12 y.o. when this song first hit the airwaves and now today at 58 y.o. I finally learned the true meaning behind the song from the songwriter himself Buddy Buie and it surprised me. Back in the 60's-70's, songs were written in metaphors to sound one way but mean something entirely different or as I would say, a clever way of dancing around the fire without censorship. I remember when Ed Sullivan tried to censor Jim Morrison of the Doors which we all know didn't work as Jim still uttered the words on live network television "Light My Fire" which got him banned from the show. The Eagles were one of the clever groups among many as well as another group The Starland Vocal Group, and even Jefferson Airplane with Marty Balin and Grace Slick who would hide trick shots in plain view using metaphors.
Never ever be bands and true music such as this again, so sad I guess I should have paid more attention to it , everything comes to an end I guess!!!!!!!
I believe all the members are passed except the keyboardist . I was watching an interview with their producer at Musicians Hall Of Fame (Municipal Auditorium) in downtown Nashville, and he said that this song is exactly what you think. This song was #8 on the Billboard charts in 1978.
@deadmanrunning- Rodney started with them for a brief time & quit early on. Ronnie Hammond was frontman singing all their popular hits & albums& remained in the band thru their peak years. Rodney showed back up & tours with what is now a mere tribute band because they are all dead. 😢
I didn't realize Dean died too. Everybody seen here is no longer with us. Or I guess you could say this famous lineup of the ARS Rodney Justo still out there keeping the band going the original singer he's recruited quite a few pretty good players for the most part keeping it alive.

You are right about Paul. His bass guitar solo on "Another Man's Woman" from the live album "Are You Ready" is one of the greatest ever.
A True Gem, Yess 🏆🌟

🎉still here listening this beautiful song since 70s 🎉great time 🎉 love it is 2024 classic masterpiece 🎉❤🎉❤
Ronnie Hammond voice is one of the best ever!! Great guitar and keyboards made this a great band!
One of the most underrated vocalists of all time; what a unique, smooth voice he had. It was so cool and yet he was so humble about it.
It was during the disco era when these guys hit. When AM radio ruled the air. FM radio started to become popular and mainstream... Thank You ARS ... thank you...
Those were my days.,what a great band, I'm now 63

These guys were smooth and so good. Barry Bailey was excellent!
Los 70's grandes epocas de buenos grupos q recuerdos!
Never ever be bands and true music such as this again, so sad I guess I should have paid more attention to it , everything comes to an end I guess!!!!!!!
Thanks For Posting Another Great Classic I Saw Them In Concert Before The Lead Singer Passed Away
I think most of this lineup is dead.
@@AussieTVMusic All of this lineup is dead sadly.
@@fletcherbowman5456 Thought so. All were not that old either
older than ur cat donkey@@AussieTVMusic
I grew up in Atlanta in the 70s this just feels like home to me .
Great classic and good memories, thanks.
Southern easy listening at it's very best. Gone but not forgotten.
Satisfaction guaranteed!
First time hearing them, i really liked this song
You got that right ronnie had it going on.
I believe all the members are passed except the keyboardist . I was watching an interview with their producer at Musicians Hall Of Fame (Municipal Auditorium) in downtown Nashville, and he said that this song is exactly what you think. This song was #8 on the Billboard charts in 1978.
Singer Rodney Justo is still with us.
From here on the great musicians continue to pass thru the veil of death
@deadmanrunning- Rodney started with them for a brief time & quit early on. Ronnie Hammond was frontman singing all their popular hits & albums& remained in the band thru their peak years. Rodney showed back up & tours with what is now a mere tribute band because they are all dead. 😢
Satisfaction Gauranteed.
ARS had some serious talent on board...
My favorite band ever..other than the Beatles. ❤❤❤❤
Great Band Miss the Days. I’m guessing not many know what the song means?! Creative for all❤️
I know they played Knebworth '78. Gotta be some footage of them, somewhere!
wow, that's wild
Paul Goddard could play the damn bass!
1978? i THOUGHT THIS WAS 77 . I LOVE ars
Not sure if their paths ever crossed, but imagine Little River Band on-tour with ARB, wow
Oh the memories!
The Very Finest 🏆🌟
I didn't realize Dean died too.
Everybody seen here is no longer with us.
Or I guess you could say this famous lineup of the ARS
Rodney Justo still out there keeping the band going the original singer he's recruited quite a few pretty good players for the most part keeping it alive.
Just seen them in York PA! Rodney Justo sounds great!
Why are they not in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame????
Because RRHOF needs DEI inductees like Missy Eliot to collect private funding.
Oh man dem was de daze!
MIS INTENSOS 18 AÑOS👍❤️
Who doesn't like a nice bit of ARS.
Ronnie Hammond was so handsome and sexy
Excelente tema
I wonder why they shortened this by a minute the original cut on the champagne jam album It's a 5-minute song
Video stopped cold by commercials.
RUclips Premium. Zero ads.
I wonder if the bassplayer wrote this song
Writing credits are Buddy Buie (producer), Robert Nix (drummer) & Dean Daughtry (keyboards).
Such a classy comment, what a joke you are. Paul Goddard was one of the best bass players of any era, very well respected and talented man.
how do you figure? he does look pretty "chill" up there, maybe he did!
@@Jgeneraledger23 He has a face of somebody that does a lot of imagining..
