Fun fact: there was never anyone in the band named Marshall Tucker. Marshall Tucker was a blind piano tuner in Spartanburg, SC. The name was engraved into the key of a warehouse they rented. When they found out he was an actual person they obtained his permission to use the name. He said he didn't mind as long as they were good boys and played good music. He just died in 2023 at the age of 99.
@@dgoodman1968 I definitely get what you mean but if I had to put them in a genre and not base it on location it would be southern rock, to me they don't fit anywhere else that I can think of.
Southern Rock is a mix of Rock & Country and The Marshall Tucker Band was one of thee very best ever! Toy Caldwell was a Vietnam War Hero and gained the respect of every person who ever met him. Rest In Power Forever Toy!
Yay. You're wading into the southern rock world again. There are definitely some greats in this arena. Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet, 38 Special, Black Oak Arkansas, the Outlaws, etc
Lord, my mis-spent youth. Loved Marshall Tucker. Learned to play the flute because of this set we did! We covered everybody! Takes me back . Thank you, BP!
We were blessed! I want young people to learn about that music so someday people will start learning to sing and write for themselves again. Taylor Swift can't do it all alone. Auto-tune and sampling only works because they had our music to build on.
Songs like these make me emotional now that dad's gone. I just picture him sittin on the porch, no lights, just the tip of his cigarette burning, and the radio.
Oh yeah, my father is 84 and I am hanging onto every day I have to spend time with him. I'm a daddy's girl and he raised me. They are from a different generation that we don't see anymore. Have a blessed one.
I'm in my 60s, the seventies was not the VHS era, the eighties were. The 70s had ' The midnight special, Don kirshner's rock concert and soul train' TV shows. that was all we had. ( 4 hours a week). If you did not see them there you did not see them at all, unless you went to the live concerts. There were few videos. You simply listened to everything via radio, albums, 8 track cassettes or cassette tapes. Lol
After my second heart surgery I had a younger nurse and she was telling me how her grandfather was the drummer of this band. I was currently in Syracuse NY at that time. I thought it was cool. I started singing this song to her… lol
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Tuesdays Gone, Saturday Night Special and That Smell. Then add 38 Special and their songs Wild-eyed Southern Boy, Bring It On and Caught Up In You
YEAH ROBERT, ( JOHN FOGERTY ) 😊THIS IS GREAT SOUTHERN ROCK JUST LIKE : ALLMAN BROTHERS, CHARLIE DANIELS, ZZ TOP, LYNYRD SKYNYRD 💯ANYWAY YEAH! FORTYYYY! OH YEAH ROBERT, ANOTHER GREAT SONG AND HIT OF THESE GUYS WAS : HEARD IT IN A LOVE SONG ( ORIGINAL VERSION ) 👍
a song popped into my head yesterday hadn't thought about in a looong while. i know youll love it! the band is ARGENT - the song ' Hold your head up' ...... caution .. dont make the mistake of picking the short version! the one u want is a little over 6 minutes!!
Simper Fi and RIP Marine, during his tour in Vietnam lead singer Toy Caldwell saw that his fellow Marines wrier receiving their dear John letters from home and what they did to the marines who received them when he returned home he wrote this song. Also try heard it in a love song and fire on the mountain great southern rock songs
Toy Caldwell, lead singer/guitarist, wasn't long back from Vietnam when they recorded this. Just saw Marshall Tucker last weekend at Georgia Mountain fairground.
This band as well as Lynyrd Skynyrd was called Southern Rock. Oh and Charlie Daniel's and James Earl. This music was awesome for camping, bon fires ,and general low key partying in the summer. Great with just an acoustic guitar if the person playing it can actually play. As well as Eagles played on acoustic guitar. Actually there wasn't even Vhs back in the 70s. No Vcrs until early 80s and then only if you had some good money back then. As I recall 8 track players were still pretty expensive in the early 80s.
Listening to The Outlaws Green Grass and High Tides powering up Pig Trail from Cass to top out at Fly Gap on the last note tells me I’ve made a good run. Those curves on Hwy 23 in Arkansas at night are thrilling.
I was 12 in 73 us 70s BRATS were over spoiled was fantastic music of all kinds u name it we had great times of 🔥my youth Blcack Pagsasus you had to be there the 70s🔥 were🔥
Nothing beats sitting by the fire pit on Friday or Saturday night with BPs reactions blasting. Thank you for all of these reactions brother. God bless.
YES - YES - YEAH - !!!!!!! MTB is probably the most underrated Southern Rock bank of all time!!!!! A must for any playlist!!!! Toy was a US Marine Corps Vietnam vet-wounded-Purple Heart - then went BACK & finished his tour of duty!!!!! Meanwhile his wife cheated on him -this song reflects that - You can HEAR the pain in his voice!!! This song is still played in all the honky-tonks & dance halls & biker bars in Texas & the south!!!! If ya wanted to be a band- you HAD to perform this song with soul!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS TIME WARP!!!!! Charlie Daniels recorded with him & even performed with him -- Waylon Jennings cover this - as did Zac Brown!! this is so timeless!!!
This song sure takes me back to happy days as a teenager playing this song with my musician friends.. my boyfriend who became my husband could sing it really good. Life was so much more carefree then, and every day seemed filled with joy, fun, and good times. It's a great song, but makes me sad for the world we're all living in nowadays.
In the late 1960s, four of the band members served in the US military; Toy Caldwell served in the Marine Corps and received a Purple Heart after being wounded in Vietnam. By the 1970s, Toy Caldwell and George McCorkle had returned to Spartanburg and the Toy Factory had resumed playing in area clubs.❤😢Tommy Caldwell the older brother of co-founder and bass guitarist, Tommy who was killed at age 30 in an automobile accident on April 28, 1980, and to Tim Caldwell, who on March 28, 1980, one month prior to Tommy's death, was killed at age 25 in a collision with a Spartanburg County garbage truck on S.C. Highway 215. Toy Caldwell, the lead singer of this song, passed away at age 45 in 1993, due to respiratory failure Toy.named his band after the piano tuner who had a business there.The band members realized that Tucker had previously used the space for his piano tuning business, and they decided to use his name as a temporary name for the band while they were practicing for an upcoming show. The name stuck, and the band never changed it.
Yes sir; this song is a certified American Southern Rock Classic!!! Lead singer was a Vietnam Vet, I believe. You really should do a deep dive into the Allman Brothers ❤. “Stormy Monday” from their live at the Filmore album is a great start 🔥
Among SOUTHERN ROCK's BEST!!! The Doobie Brothers ("It Keeps You Running'", "Black Water", "Listen to the Music" , "JESUS Is Just Alright With ME", "Another Park, Another Sunday" , "Long Train Running' " , "Take Me In Your Arms [Rock Me A Little While]" , "China Grove", "Minute by Minute", "You Belong To Me" and MORE" }, The Allan Brothers Band ("Sweet Melissa," "Statesboro Blue" & Many MORE) , Creedence Clearwater Revival (A Gazillion More), The Charlie Daniels Band, Lynyrd Skynrd, ZZ Top, .38 Special, Atlanta Rhythm Section (that really WAS the Rhythm Section of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra), The Black Crowes, The Ozark Mountain Dare Devils, The Georgia Satellites ("Keep Your Hands To Yourself"), so, so, so many more and these are just the good ones with good songs!!!! You'll SMILE a LOT!!! You'll hear blues (North Mississippi All-Stars -- that's the Delta) .... ENGAGE, my man -- there's a WHOLE 'nother World waiting for YOU!!! 😎🤠🙄
I’m going to start calling you “BUTTER” Mr. Black Pegasus - because YOU are on a ROLL every time I turn around lately. Thank you for making yourself familiar with this classic tune from my youth. I’m 64. I wish we could have hung out in the 70s. It was a hell of a good time!
Vietnam vet. Purple Heart. Most soulful voice for such a young man. If I had to pick a fav song (which is impossible) but if I had to it would be this. After. Divorce gave up music awhile. When I finally went out with friends I automatically went to the jukebox out of habit. Played this song. People all around the bar started singing. Even yoinger ones. And music was back again in my life to never be gone again.
We've lost too many great artists to drugs. Toy Talmadge Caldwell Jr. left us a living legacy of one of the greatest Southern Rock artists in history. Oorah.
When we were growing up, we had no cell phones, had 3 channels on TV that turned off at midnight with the Star Spangled Banner. We would lay down and listen to music to fall asleep at night, or we would drive around small towns with stereo blaring during cold beer dreaming of what was out there away from our boring towns. Music kept us sane. That’s why the music was so good.
It's "southern rock." It always amazes me as to how much the lead singer looks like Ricky Nelson (a whole other rabbit hole). This band and song, in particular, set the tone for the 70s. southern flavor as a "cross-over" band from country to rock/southern rock. Tight musicianship in every song and his voice only gets better. 😊 ..And do you remember something about me saying... *White boys rock!* 😊 😉
BP! I am so thrilled you are reacting to this - and to the live performance!! MTB is part of the trifecta of southern rock gods - Skynrd, Allman Brothers and MTB. Toy Caldwell, lead singing here, was a great guitarist - "The Fastest Thumb in the South." Vietnam vet, wounded and returned back to service. Semper Fi, Toy.
Marshall Tucker, Outlaws and Lynard Skinner often played on the same card in beer bars and concert halls through out the south. AAMOF they so often played together, they knew each other's sets, and members would cover for missing band members in the other groups.
This music is called Southern Rock. The first band to play this type of music was the allman brothers. Awesome talent. You should check it out. Whipping post, one way out, soul shine, and sweet melissa is a great place to start.
Awesome southern rock band from South Carolina, my home as well. I was fortunate enough to see them live several times when I was in college. Talk about a good time , rocking with the MTB and being 19 years old. Great memories. Also Toy , the lead vocalist here in this song wrote this song when he was in Vietnam. He was a Marine , RIP Toy Caldwell
If no one has mentioned it, Marshall Tucker was the name of the piano tuner who would come in and tune the piano. They liked the name and asked if they could use it.
This song affected me so much that I decided to play the Flute in Jr. High School. I have always loved The Marshall Tucker Band. They have some other great songs I am sure you would like too. I would love to see your reaction to WHIPPING POST BY THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND.. PLEASE! YOU HAVEN'T HEARD SOUL UNTIL YOU HEAR THIS SONG.. I have requested this many times. I hope you see this.. God Bless you and your family.
I totally just added this to my list of songs for u to check out last night!! 🙌 I've never watched a video of them performing live tho...That was awesome! Also, I have a whole list of songs by The Black Crowes for u! 😁

Thats cool...i hope they helped him money wise if they kept in touch...that would be cool
That's fascinating. I never knew. Thanks for sharing.
o7 THE Marshall Tucker
Wow i live near Spartanburg SC and never knew that! Thank you❤
@@squigglyharris4898I always have to chuckle at the line about taking a Southbound from SC all the way to Georgia.
Skynard, Allman Bros., and Marshall Tucker are what southern rock is all about.
Love all of them but you can't forget zz top and CCR
@@rocky11top CCR was great but definitely not southern rock they were from California
@@dgoodman1968 I definitely get what you mean but if I had to put them in a genre and not base it on location it would be southern rock, to me they don't fit anywhere else that I can think of.
@@rocky11top I cant argue with that point
@@dgoodman1968 Wait two people can disagree, have a conversation and not be jackasses. Wierd lol
Two other gems by MTB are
•Fire on the Mountain
•Heard it in a Love Song
❤ southern Rock at its finest one of the best and very unique sound..
Yes 💯
"Heard It in a Love Song" - That's one to hit.
Southern Rock is a mix of Rock & Country and The Marshall Tucker Band was one of thee very best ever! Toy Caldwell was a Vietnam War Hero and gained the respect of every person who ever met him. Rest In Power Forever Toy!
I would say a mix of rock, country and blues
@@ritayprice3510 Yeah, every type of modern music is blues based.
They've got a bluegrass vibe in there too.
Yay. You're wading into the southern rock world again. There are definitely some greats in this arena. Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet, 38 Special, Black Oak Arkansas, the Outlaws, etc
Got some great ones there!!
And if you do 38 Special please do the Southern Rock side of the band.
@@jamestate5059 they went down hill after Donnie left
@@allenruss2976 I agree 100%
You took the words right out of my mouth. Ass kickin' southern rock....it's a whole different genre ! 😂 We rocked !
That flute is soo iconic. Next up for MTB - Fire on the Mountain.
Lord, my mis-spent youth. Loved Marshall Tucker. Learned to play the flute because of this set we did! We covered everybody! Takes me back . Thank you, BP!
If ya learned Anything in Life, it was not "Time Miss-spent"😉❤🤙
His "Wifey" was cheating on him while he was dodging bullets in Vietnam. This song came from that pain.
Never knew this -gives the song more depth-have always loved it
I don't think Toy's wife was. I think he said he wrote the song after watching fellow Marines get Dear John letters.
I never knew this. Thanks for letting us know. Dang, gives the song a different meaning for me.
Never knew.
@@lorijohnston4311 Exactly
That specific guitar and bass sound of the early 70s... man, that brings me right back to those times!
Again, we had the most enduring and best music in the 70s.
Can't argue that, and I was an 80's teen, but loved 70's rock for sure.
oh yes! Grauated high school in 1974~ great music for sure
we where damn lucky. shows for $7 and all that fun
@@jimburg621 $3.50 to get in the Fillmore West!
We were blessed! I want young people to learn about that music so someday people will start learning to sing and write for themselves again. Taylor Swift can't do it all alone. Auto-tune and sampling only works because they had our music to build on.
Songs like these make me emotional now that dad's gone. I just picture him sittin on the porch, no lights, just the tip of his cigarette burning, and the radio.
Oh yeah, my father is 84 and I am hanging onto every day I have to spend time with him. I'm a daddy's girl and he raised me. They are from a different generation that we don't see anymore. Have a blessed one.
I feel ya, nice comment
Man that just hit me hard. 😢
Mad respect to the Vets on that stage
Man I love my Southern Rock! Marshall Tucker Band, Allman Brothers Band, Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet, etc.
OMG.... we knew every line and sang it loud and proud!!
I'm in my 60s, the seventies was not the VHS era, the eighties were. The 70s had ' The midnight special, Don kirshner's rock concert and soul train'
TV shows. that was all we had. ( 4 hours a week). If you did not see them there you did not see them at all, unless you went to the live concerts. There were few videos. You simply listened to everything via radio, albums, 8 track cassettes or cassette tapes. Lol

One of my favorite bands in my high school years. Thanks for listening to it!
Legendary band. Got to admit those old bands actually made music with no tricks. It was a great time for real music
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Tuesdays Gone, Saturday Night Special and That Smell. Then add 38 Special and their songs Wild-eyed Southern Boy, Bring It On and Caught Up In You
Lynyrd Skynyrd....Call Me the Breeze
@ritayprice3510 and of course " Give Me Three Steps ". A true story of the lead singer.
Grew up with Marshall Tucker I'm 64 years old
59 here. My older brother had the album. Even my mom liked it. Loved it then but love it even more now.

Toy Caldwell, lead singer/guitarist, wasn't long back from Vietnam when they recorded this. Just saw Marshall Tucker last weekend at Georgia Mountain fairground.
Bands in this era was great, no computers, no backing tracks,no lip syncing, just great musicians playing their ass off and doing what they love.
This band as well as Lynyrd Skynyrd was called Southern Rock. Oh and Charlie Daniel's and James Earl. This music was awesome for camping, bon fires ,and general low key partying in the summer.

Another great Southern Rock band is The Outlaws
I saw the outlaws open for Skynyrd back in the day, they were fantastic!
Listening to The Outlaws Green Grass and High Tides powering up Pig Trail from Cass to top out at Fly Gap on the last note tells me I’ve made a good run. Those curves on Hwy 23 in Arkansas at night are thrilling.
I was 12 in 73 us 70s BRATS were over spoiled was fantastic music of all kinds u name it we had great times of 🔥my youth Blcack Pagsasus you had to be there the 70s🔥 were🔥
Did you notice Toy Caldwell does not use a guitar pick- he plucks with his thumb.
The thundering thumb of Toy Caldwell.

Because that mean old woman never told him good bye.

He wrote this as an active duty Marine in reaction to so many fellow Marines getting Dear John letters, or so the story goes.
Correct, he was injured in Vietnam, received a Purple Heart, evacuated for 2 weeks then returned to duty.
Shoot...that whole album is amazing.
Toy Caldwell the singer and guitar player here joined the Marine Corps was wounded in Vietnam recovered from his wounds and returned to duty.
While going down this road don't forget The Outlaws and Green Grass and High Tides...
LOVE Me Some MARSHALL TUCKER BAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Them Good Ole South Carolina Boys ‘Nuff Said

The Dooibies were a mix of straight up Rock with some Blue eyed soul sprinkled in.

So glad you are looking at these bands from the’70’s
This was 35mm baby. VHS was still a decade away!
Vietnam vet. Purple Heart. Most soulful voice for such a young man. If I had to pick a fav song (which is impossible) but if I had to it would be this. After. Divorce gave up music awhile.

And music was back again in my life to never be gone again.
The 70’s were such a diverse era for bands. Kind of a country rock crossover like Thin Lizzy and Molly Hatchet.
Southern rock just like heavy metal, the instruments all sing a story as well.
We've lost too many great artists to drugs. Toy Talmadge Caldwell Jr. left us a living legacy of one of the greatest Southern Rock artists in history. Oorah.
Good ole southern rock...Fire on the mountain
*Fire On The Mountain* by The Marshal Tucker Band
Just like The Almans Brothers Band, Lanyard Skynyrd, 38 Special and others ITS SOUTHERN ROCK!!!!!!! ENJOY YOUR JOURNEY.....
When we were growing up, we had no cell phones, had 3 channels on TV that turned off at midnight with the Star Spangled Banner. We would lay down and listen to music to fall asleep at night, or we would drive around small towns with stereo blaring during cold beer dreaming of what was out there away from our boring towns. Music kept us sane. That’s why the music was so good.
This style of music was called Southern Country Rock. Same category as The Alleman Brothers, Lynyard Skynard, etc.
It's "southern rock." It always amazes me as to how much the lead singer looks like Ricky Nelson (a whole other rabbit hole). This band and song, in particular, set the tone for the 70s. southern flavor as a "cross-over" band from country to rock/southern rock. Tight musicianship in every song and his voice only gets better. 😊
..And do you remember something about me saying...
*White boys rock!* 😊 😉
Allman Bros, Skynrd, Marshall Tucker Band, & 38 Special
Green Grass and High Tides.. The Outlaws!
Such a timeless classic from another underrated band.
A must have for any playlist
I miss the 70s
Thanks
Oh my goodness! FINALLY someone is bringing my favorite band up from those old dusty shelves! Loved them since the 70’s!
BP! I am so thrilled you are reacting to this - and to the live performance!! MTB is part of the trifecta of southern rock gods - Skynrd, Allman Brothers and MTB.

Oh honey ,, here we go !!! Marshall Tucker keeps music fun 😊
Great tune Love it! You should check out Steve Earle Copperhead road! Love your reactions!
This IS a jam of JAMS!!! Gives you hope in life to overcome obstacles.. glad u enjoyed it...😊

I wore this album out. The whole album was awesome.
50ys + and this classic tune still holds the test of time. Considered one of the best country tunes of all time.
This is gold. Then and now. Simple and great!
If no one has mentioned it, Marshall Tucker was the name of the piano tuner who would come in and tune the piano. They liked the name and asked if they could use it.

My fav souther rock band among many other favs.😂 My favorite cousin came down to TN from KY and took me to this. He recently passed. RIP Tommy
Next up:
Heard it in a Love Song
Fire on the Mountain
The music of my youth! I was so fortunate to see this band live at Red Rocks in 1978!! Fire on the Mountain is my favorite..
This song affected me so much that I decided to play the Flute in Jr. High School. I have always loved The Marshall Tucker Band. They have some other great songs I am sure you would like too.
I would love to see your reaction to WHIPPING POST BY THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND.. PLEASE! YOU HAVEN'T HEARD SOUL UNTIL YOU HEAR THIS SONG.. I have requested this many times. I hope you see this..
God Bless you and your family.
The pride of Spartanburg, SC. The music of my youth growing up.
