Appalachian St. University, 1979, they played for homecoming. I jumped up on stage and Barry gave me a pair of his sticks....still have them. love this band.
I was a sophomore at App State then. They played at homecoming that year. Bill Murray may have been the warmup act that year too. MF is one of the best bands ever!
I was a huge fan of both Mother's Finest and Are Smith so when both band joined together in Atlanta they were the beginning act and absolutely totally stole the whole show!
I saw MF in Atlanta. This was the song playing as we walked up being late. The whole world was rocking hard, the cars and everything around us was shaking. Ppl were having so much fun.
They recorded a fantastic rock album in the early 90's called "Black Radio Won't Play This Record" - and it's one of the best albums of the 90's! Phenomenal band - I saw Prince perform this at an aftershow a few times, and it was always a trip! :)
Saw them at Alabama Jam 78?79 Mothers finest, Rossington Collins band.Can't remember the other band that day but been a fan of this one for many years.
I've always loved this album and this lady is why. She's got some pipes! My brother introduced me about 1989 and just hooked. And it's Joyce specific, her control is flawless.
I'm 62 and grew up in Georgia listening to Mother's Finest and I never understood why they didn't get their due recognition. I actually went into a grocery store one night and the cashier said Mother's Finest had just come through and even autographed a paper bag for them...true story. Every song just blows me away. No one like them ever.
I am in Alabama and they used to play at music festivals outside in the middle of the summer in the heat. everyone loved Mother's Finest and they didn't get half of the recognition they deserved. they still perform mostly in Europe. look up the 1976 performance of Fire on Don Kirschner's. their talent is so good it's ridiculous
Southern Fried Black soul rock! Most underrated kick ass band ever! Thank you Mother’s Finest for the greatest memories growing up in the 70’s ! Tina’s got nothing on you girl! I guarantee it!
@@HB76558 no problem! I grew up in the Carolinas and grew up with MF. Saw them in concert in Greenville SC with Nantucket and Molly Hatchet. MF completely stole the show! One of the few bands to sound as good or better live!
I'm 61 from Amsterdam in Holland. Never had the pleasure of seeing them live, but I also never understood why they were so underrated. This song made us throw our purses in someones lap and storm the dancefloor. It still makes me dance- the hardcore rock/soul/funk with the incredible voice of Joyce Kennedy- it's unheard of. Very authentic, still one of my favourite lovesongs EVER.
@@smoly37They were so “underrated” because they were black. Black radio didn’t get behind them. I am talking about nationwide not the East Coast soul stations. So black radio didn’t back them and Rock radio didn’t back them either, mostly because they were black. I know that sounds weird but that’s the way it used to be in the US. I was a black teenager and the only way I heard about Mother’s Finest was a white employee of my dad’s. He had moved to Chicago from North Carolina and he had one of their 8-Track tapes and I was curious. He played a little for me and I was hooked. I even became a DJ and even then I couldn’t get my Program Director to let me spin Mother’s Finest.
Damn straight! It epitomized my late teen years at the end of the 70’s and will ever remind me of my one true love who slipped away.....I cry every time I hear this but that’s ok. I love him still even though he died a year ago....
I also saw them in Atlanta. But I first heard their music in the seventies when my brother came back from Okinawa he was in the Marine Corps then I was still living in Hagerstown Maryland!
My first concert I grew up in Manchester Georgia seen them in concert in Columbus, Georgia when I was probably 1415 what an underrated band Joyce Kennedy’s voice is everlasting. I can still play this song and be 15 again throwing down dancing around acting crazy. What Voice
During the late 70's I was a Hard Rock fan and Mother's Finest was a great mixture of Rock/Funk/Soul and were great live in concert. Just the total package.
Same. Grew up suburban hard rock fan. Got into funk in my late 20's . These folks blew me away when i first heard 'em. I heard a great story. They were on the same bill as Ted Nugent. Same management i guess. Fans were being disrespectful and racist. Ted came out and admonished the fans. Cool.
Know Clarkston very well. I was born in what was called Dekalb General Hospital. It may be Memorial?? now. Mothers Finest is The Shit for sure. God Bless
OMG!!!! I've searched years for this song after my 16th birthday I fell in love for the first timehe had to go away. I was heartbroken I am now 53 years old just found the song thank you thank you thank you
I just saw this ..... and I understand EXACTLY what you mean!. I have a personal connection to this song too .... and tonight I came here to travel back in time and live it for a few minutes. I am 60 years old .....but I NEVER FORGOT that boy of summer 1984.
I was lucky enough to work with a band that opened up for Mother's Finest in Myrtle Beach, SC. They were unbelievable!! The entire band was amazing, but Joyce Kennedy was radiant. I got meet them after the show and she was just as radiant behind the scenes. One if my favorite rock and roll memories and still one of my favorite bands.
This song is just so damned funky it's ridiculous. I'm fortunate enough to be in a band that plays songs like this and speaking as a bass player Mothers Finest is the ultimate drug.
Saw them Tear It Up at in ATL @Champagne Jam at Grant Field in '78? It was Mose Jones, Mother's Finest, Doobie Brothers, Santana. I met Leon Russell there. Insane day, AMAZING show! Super Hot, Fire Hoses, etc! ~ Ahh, Memories!
I saw this group in concert growing up in Winston-Salem, NC back in the 70's. AWESOME! Before in Living Color, before Linkin Park, Mother's Finest were a trailblazing group!
Hell yeah! I did the same in Charlotte! I'll never EVER understand why MF didn't hit the big time. Makes me sad. Opened for the Doobie Brothers amongst others in those days.
this has to be one of the greatest times of my life....no worries, no cares about anything else but listening to music and hanging out with friends.....so simple that I miss it terribly
Tell me about it. I remember graduation at the beach, with everyone just jamming to this and getting lit. But, you really can't ever get back to the garden.
Mother’s Finest was my first concert, at the YMCA in Clinton SC!! Have seen them many times since then and they never disappoint!! My nickname is Baby Love!!💕
I saw them the summer of 78 in Myrtle Beach at some dive club that hold 100 people at most, I was hooked, never had heard of Baby Love, just a 16 yr. old white boy that was blown away, good to hear Baby Jean still rockin them vocals!!
When I lived In Wilmington, NC 1990-92, I became acquainted with the female lead singer of a cover band. They often closed out their show with this song, and on my last night in town, dedicated the song to me.
I've listened to them for 45 years!!!! They deserve hall of Fame hell yes and before they die too!!!! Best ever live mother's finest doesn't get love or credit they deserve!!!!
I remember when this first came out and we played it LOUD in the school parking lot before classes started. It made the day go better when we danced to a groove that early.
I was 15 years old when this song came out. I saw Mother's Finest in Knoxville, TN when they used to have 3 bands St every concert. $8.00 to see 3 bands perform. Now tell me that's not a value. They were the opening act, but we're so good they should have been the main act. I promptly when out the next day to buy this 8-track. Yes, that's how long ago that was.
Never heard of MF until '79 when I moved to ATL, GA. They were big with the locals down there and got good airplay. I heard one cut by them and stood on my head. This was the sound! Incredible band. Never reached sustained chart topping success, but I'm thinking they have influenced so many great artists. They should be in RnR Hall of Fame
This Tune was the fav JAM!!! Mothers Finest Fused all the genres of music I loved growing up in Detroit! R & B Soul, Rock, Gospel, Progressive with strong vocals!
I regret that I never saw them live, but my husband did and he said they were awesome! This is my fave, but hard to split it with Truth Will Set You Free!
My neighbor Hans used to beg me to stop playing this record 25 years ago, I played it every day, I loved it then, still love it just as much today, and I still can't resist to dance to it. I am so happy it is here now! Thanks! I am going to hit replay and dance now... lol
It is both a privilege and a honor with Clint Ivie and Sol Junky/ band to have shared the stage with Mother's Finest for two sold out shows. The nights and performances were incredible and unforgettable! Including the After-parties!
one of those bands outside the mainstream...sound soooo powerful...not to be overlooked or ignored... it is just as powerful now as it was the first time i heard it ,so many years ago...damn i love it so...thanks for reminding me...pstholm & you tube!
This had me dancing in my kitchen a few minutes ago... at 3 a.m. in the morning.. Good music ...and the food is almost done.. yeah Also, shoutout to my kitchen radio!
I saw them open for Humble Pie in 1980 Cobo Arena, Detroit. On the same bill was Frank Marino and Angel. It was one of the most diverse and awesome concerts I ever experienced.
I saw these guys in the early eighties in The Netherlands. At the time I was driving my roommates nuts because this was just about the only record I'd ever play. I still know it by heart inside and out hehe.
saw them last night at Amos's southend in charlotte, nc. 3rdtime, and they still got it!, Joyce upbeat and sweet smiling, melt away all bad karma! uplifting and fun all the way thru! thank you Mothers finest, had a great time!
I'm a child of the 70's and thought I've heard most of the music from that era but haven't heard this song until now thanks to an American Idol contestant who covered it.
I have always loved Mothers Finest.. one of the best bands ever. saw them twice .once in Charlotte NC and then in Gaston county NC. Would love to see them again
I've been going through the minor hits of 1977 (the year I started listening to music as a kid) and I thank RUclips for letting me hear these funky songs that never made it to the radio in my snow-white town.
To this very day....many years later...when I listen to ...Mother's Finest.....I move....Thanks for the upload but above all....Thanks Mother's Finest!!!

Joyce could have fronted a rock band as a matter of fact mother's finest IS a rock band. her voice still remains timeless
They recorded a fantastic rock album in the early 90's called "Black Radio Won't Play This Record" - and it's one of the best albums of the 90's!

They did get their recognition you just didn’t know it cause you grew up in Georgia snellville ga said it
Went to west Rome high school when they toured, no words would explain how awesome they were 😅

I grew up in Marietta back in the Chatahoochie Raft Race Days. Can’t believe they weren’t huge .
Excellent music and what a strong voice of Joyce Kennedy !

Chaka khan's sister
how about you Joan? Grind all night long over and over again!
Woman's got some PIPES. Just stumbled upon this group through my suggestions and.....did not disappoint. FUNKY
Saw this band several times in the 70's as special guest. They always blew the headliner off the stage!!!! Always...
Me too, was very lucky to see them for free in Piedmont Park!!! Back in the day!! AMAZING BAND.
Haha Piedmont Park...An ATL Venue...Saw them here @ Lakewood on their last stop....very good band.
I also saw them in Atlanta. But I first heard their music in the seventies when my brother came back from Okinawa he was in the Marine Corps then I was still living in Hagerstown Maryland!
Mothers finest should be the main attraction......period
They opened for Aerosmith
I had this song in my head and searched it the full afternoon. It doesn't appear in the 70s playlists, it seems. So glad I found it finally!
I think Joyce Kennedy had a powerful voice like Gladys Knight, She was underrated and overlooked.
100 percent correct.
Agreed!!!
You ain't lying
I couldn't agree more!!!
@ Marsha Johnson you nailed it Joyce Kennedy had a set of pipes like no other very under rated
My first concert I grew up in Manchester Georgia seen them in concert in Columbus, Georgia when I was probably 1415 what an underrated band Joyce Kennedy’s voice is everlasting. I can still play this song and be 15 again throwing down dancing around acting crazy. What Voice
During the late 70's I was a Hard Rock fan and Mother's Finest was a great mixture of Rock/Funk/Soul and were great live in concert. Just the total package.
1stSaintsFan , my group was Zepplin, Floyd & Skynrd but everyone LOVED Mothers Finest!
1stSaintsFan they are amazing live!
Would have done anything to see them! I was 13 when this song, came out!
1stSaintsFan they have a record called Black Radio won’t play this music great album but also the thruth but very popular by funky white dudes
Same. Grew up suburban hard rock fan. Got into funk in my late 20's . These folks blew me away when i first heard 'em. I heard a great story. They were on the same bill as Ted Nugent. Same management i guess. Fans were being disrespectful and racist. Ted came out and admonished the fans. Cool.
Am also 62…saw em many times…even once at the old DeKalb College Clarkston…I agree one of the best..makes one proud of being an ATL native…
Know Clarkston very well. I was born in what was called Dekalb General Hospital. It may be Memorial?? now.

The Shit for sure. God Bless
I was 9 years old when I heard this woman singing how bad she needs my love!!!!! Been crankin it every since I've found it on RUclips!!!!!

Mother’s Finest not being in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is a shame!!!

Tell me about it. I remember graduation at the beach, with everyone just jamming to this and getting lit. But, you really can't ever get back to the garden.
If you grew up in Atlanta in the 70's like I did, you loved Mothers Finest.. I saw them countless times in their heyday. Thanks for the memories!!
I saw Mother's Finest live at the Asheville Civic Center. They opened up for
Molly Hatchet !!!
It was a great night.
2021 still listening to mother! Wow brings back memories of a day or so! Love to all! Peace my friend! Adrian
Mother’s Finest was my first concert, at the YMCA in Clinton SC!! Have seen them many times since then and they never disappoint!! My nickname is Baby Love!!💕
Been a fan for almost 40 years, I smile when I hear their songs start up. What a live experience...Thank you!
Saw them several times in North Carolina best times to see live bands and they had a great show with great music. Never will forget
I am going to SCREAM! Wow....this is the JAM!
Raunchy Raw and Unbelievably Nasty. You can't find this kind of funky stuff anymore. God Bless Old School!
It's raunchy as hell, which is why I love it.
Got to be one of the best bands ever! Fantastic voice and what a groove! Love it!!
This funky music!! Played in my household daily growing up. Best music ever.

It`s 2020 already my dude.
Maybe i should make another comment to get some tasty internet points..
Meh, I rather listen to the song again.
I saw them the summer of 78 in Myrtle Beach at some dive club that hold 100 people at most, I was hooked, never had heard of Baby Love, just a 16 yr. old white boy that was blown away, good to hear Baby Jean still rockin them vocals!!
TheFostex hey!! I was there too! My very first concert.. yeah it was like a warehouse or something!!! Awesome!!
I like this Georgia band growing in Marrietta ga
One of the most under-rated funk bands of the late 70's.
Joyce Kennedy's vocals are amazing
Baby Jean Kennedy is her name to us southern men lol
U Right
When I lived In Wilmington, NC 1990-92, I became acquainted with the female lead singer of a cover band. They often closed out their show with this song, and on my last night in town, dedicated the song to me.
This song ROCKS! What a great band, and the vocals give me goose bumps!
Oh my goodness, what a great song to wake up to after an amazing cup of coffee. This gave me a whole nother life.!
God blessed this woman with an incredible voice!!! #80's
I've listened to them for 45 years!!!! They deserve hall of Fame hell yes and before they die too!!!! Best ever live mother's finest doesn't get love or credit they deserve!!!!

Mothers Finest Played at Crackers Night Club in Rockingham NC, This is a Rockin Band and I still love them today🎸🎸🎤❤️
I regret that I never saw them live, but my husband did and he said they were awesome! This is my fave, but hard to split it with Truth Will Set You Free!

It is both a privilege and a honor with Clint Ivie and Sol Junky/ band to have shared the stage with Mother's Finest for two sold out shows. The nights and performances were incredible and unforgettable! Including the After-parties!
one of those bands outside the mainstream...sound soooo powerful...not to be overlooked or ignored... it is just as powerful now as it was the first time i heard it ,so many years ago...damn i love it so...thanks for reminding me...pstholm & you tube!
Love this group, brings back some great memories!
Yeah
This had me dancing in my kitchen a few minutes ago... at 3 a.m. in the morning..
Good music ...and the food is almost done.. yeah
Also, shoutout to my kitchen radio!
For me she is the greatest Singer ever.
I saw them open for Humble Pie in 1980 Cobo Arena, Detroit. On the same bill was Frank Marino and Angel. It was one of the most diverse and awesome concerts I ever experienced.
I was there to It was my 1st concert, Humble Pie, Mother's finest, The Baby's, Montrose I'll never forget it.
This band brings it still to this day. This lady still has the pipes. One of my favorite bands ever
Saw them in Auburn early 80s, and it was truly a great fun show. Sounded great, and the stage choreography was amazing for a rock band
I saw these guys in the early eighties in The Netherlands. At the time I was driving my roommates nuts because this was just about the only record I'd ever play. I still know it by heart inside and out hehe.
The music is definitely timeless and very uplifting!
I bet I was dancing to this at 6 years old, too. ❤❤❤
saw them last night at Amos's southend in charlotte, nc. 3rdtime, and they still got it!, Joyce upbeat and sweet smiling, melt away all bad karma! uplifting and fun all the way thru! thank you Mothers finest, had a great time!
I never even heard they were in Charlotte
I'm a child of the 70's and thought I've heard most of the music from that era but haven't heard this song until now thanks to an American Idol contestant who covered it.
The best band to ever come outta Ga
I have always loved Mothers Finest.. one of the best bands ever. saw them twice .once in Charlotte NC and then in Gaston county NC. Would love to see them again
Seeing them tonight in Greensboro. Great way to ring in 2015!
I've been going through the minor hits of 1977 (the year I started listening to music as a kid) and I thank RUclips for letting me hear these funky songs that never made it to the radio in my snow-white town.
We were into Mother's Finest from the beginning
To this very day....many years later...when I listen to ...Mother's Finest.....I move....Thanks for the upload but above all....Thanks Mother's Finest!!!
Yes!!!! Fantastic rock song. Hear this band grooving from 2:08, wooshh! Rock on Joyce!!!!
Greatest sound ever, I use to see them in concert and it was lightning to your feet. Her voice the base and the harmony. Magic.
Timeless music...makes me start dancing though I really ain't a dancing guy...just can't keep still.... :)
Mothers Finest 1979 Champagne Jam I was there to see that class act keep on going girl ✌️
Same jam in Atlanta. Great lineup. MF rocked!
