I believe you pick a decade and stay true to it..I'm in a 60ies all the time . I'm in a 60ies bubble !
76 here, we remember this new release
To stop Rockin is to die 😊
I’m 19 and I just heard this song for the first time. I’m in awe. Man, I wonder what it was like back then. Music has lost it’s soul today…
It was a great time to grow up in,we had good times back then.
Yer comments bring tears to my eyes. God bless you
You are so right young man
It was perfect
Get yourself a guitar
This song is easy on acoustic guitar
IF you LIVED that era, YOU KNOW and UNDERSTAND, it will never be seen again, never experienced again, it was a TIME, for some of us, to NEVER forget, it is forever etched in our hearts, lives and memories
From Spartanburg and know what you mean.
Amen!
I was there and I totally agree. Those times are gone. Glad I got to experience them.
I'm 66 and I lived then and also them in spartanburg
@@scottdavis2530 From Clemson and love them
I AM 74 YEAR OLD AND I NEVER GET TIRED OF THE 60 &70 MUSIC SONGS THAT WAS REAL MUSIC
Same here!
Best music ever❤❤❤
72 here in 24. GOD BLESS AMERICA !!! .❤
@@RobertHeadrick-s6q 75 here. Actually, I'm an 18 year-old trapped in a 75 year-old body.
My body is wearing out but my soul is still stronger than ever! This music is the Fountain of Youth.
Absolutely Robert I totally agree 👍
The young people of today don't know what good music really is 🎉🎉. I'm truly blessed to have grown up with the best music ever 🎉🎉
I agree with you, it is the best 👌 music ever
Amen🎉
Feel it…
What a voice & groove !!
My twenty three year old cranks this time and my fifteen year old has it on his Spotify.
To be A black man I was raised up on rock and southern rock blues old school r&b these guys play from the heart no damn computers..
Im listening to it
I bet you're a redneck
This RAW version is so much better than the radio version. Love it!!
I am white and was raised up on it, too. I miss the times when music wasn't so racially divided. I went to college in Atlanta in the 80's. Had some black classmates who knew more about this kind of music than I did.
@@billsmith7673I remember, & my friends & I attended all the R&B Concerts with our Black Friends.
I realized some time ago how lucky I was to grow up in the 60's and 70's with regard to music. It was an explosion of greatness and talent all over the place.
wow me too but 70's and it got great again with metal like Scorpions and Metallica and Def Leppard. would hate to be young now. would have to get this old southern rock back out.
Me too. I grew up in the six days and 70s Nestlé and I’m so grateful that I was able to live then as a teenager or not now. God bless them to get through these days. Never got into heavy metal or wrap. The 70s was the best.
I'm 64 and I totally agree with you one of my 3 kids listen to a lot of the music I did and still do listen to.
Me too. I grew up in the 60:s, was a teenager in the 70's. What a time!
Amen. Me too
I'm 60, and in my opinion, the best music ever recorded came out of the 60s and 70s.
And some in the 80's. What I wouldn't give to go back! LIFE IS SO INTOLERABLE NOW! I'm ready to go to sleep and never awaken to this demented, depraved, perverse, up-tight, surveilled mind-controlled society of sheep
As one 20 years your senior, I would add the 50's to your list.
This isn't music. It's magic.
Darn near cried. It is truly and will always be the very best and the finest of magic. ❤❤❤❤😢😢❤
Music at its best
Just turning 42 this week. Only heard this song few years back for my first time. From the start of it i was in love with it. A timeless classic
beyond epic, freezes me in time, im lost in bliss
Yess it is pure magic. Of the great old days.
Who's missing this, great music, great bands, great times.....bring me back.
I wish, too.....................................................................................

My son, now deceased, he left me at the young age of 22. He loved this song and he listened to it often.I believe it reminded him of the love of his life, Kim. I miss you dude
Sad day.

Im 70. Todays youth should look at todays music and then listen to what real music sounds like.
AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!
Nothing could be worse than to be young now.
@@ashleyrigatoni702 as a child in this era listening to this, i disagree.
I have to laugh because it’s such a boomer thing to say “listen to real music.” Your parents thought this was absolute trash lol
@@shamilton6328 exactly, "listen to real music", real music is what YOU like.
I’m 61 been listening to this kind of music since I was 13 years old. Never gets old ! Love it !!
Hello So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song

Your color is so important, that's what everyone was wondering about you
Hey, I'm a white male from Northern Ont Canada 🇨🇦. I'm no serial rapist or what ever, if you would like, send me your address or cell #. Maybe I could show you around the Land of Ice and Snow.. I don't expect any thing physical, Just want some company from a different perspective. I've never been to California. Would love to hear about it.
65 old from chicago...VOTE TRUMP SAVE CALIFORNIA
32 years of what them women have done to me, I wouldn't trade a second for the memories. I'm 65 still alive and kicking.... Rock on !!!!
Rock on brother 💪
Same Bro born in 57 best music and Cars growing up !!
I agree it was the best music
That woman doin so much brother!! Including teaching me these classics!! 😜
Good attitude and it helps to live longer!
Joe Walsh said it was better to be in my 20's in the 70's than to be 70 in the 20's. Haha. Today's music could never compare to what radio was like in the 1970's.
V i c t r o l a
100%
Its the best,❤great music😊
Ladies and gentlemen, I’ll go ahead and proudly say this…. It takes being born in the wrong generation to truly grasp how amazing this generation of music really is. 99.9% of todays music will not touch this. I’m truly blessed to be able to appreciate the oldies but goddang goodies. Thank you MTB for this amazing track.
So true 😊❤We are VERY PROUD TO UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF MUSIC 🎶 🎵 🙌 GOODIES, YES, ABSOLUTELY LOVE ❤️ 😍 ❤❤

My 32 year old daughter only listens to what would be called "Classical Rock". Back then this would be considered Southern Rock. She has no interest in her contemporaries.
I was born in this generation and the music still gives me goosebumps.
You are so right
Glad I came of age in the 70s. Music like this was commonplace. But all these years later, I can really appreciate just how exceptionally good this song is.
this band was incredible. The real glimpse into southern rock. Can't describe!
73 here been to Woodstock 69 and still rocking. if you can still do it age means nothing. god bless you
@@joehannan6966 70 and also still rockin everyday. You're right age is nothing. I'm still 21 in my mind.
Toy Caldwell wrote this Masterpiece when he was 16 !!! That’s just unreal!!!
@@joehannan6966 my friend's ex-wife was conceived while her *mom was doing a *TRAIN at *Woodstock, *Born nine months later to the day in May, her Hippie mother & black convict father threw her in a dumpster, j/s * confessed to me. j/s
I'm 70 years old and I need my 70s music😊
Me too going to be 68 April God willing. Loved seeing these guys back in 70's
God bless yall
I’m 20 years old and I need my 70s music
nothing wrong with that, my man. The music still touches the soul and warms the heart.
Life is short, enjoy the good stuff like this music.
user-- I am one of your time lol...I will live with this music forever... cause for me ...THIS is what it's is all about.....there will never be another time like this to have come & gone........I AM so honored to have had this in MY life
I'm only 72 yo and this is still some of the best music every created. The 70's was the greatest decade for lasting music. Peace to all
Imagine write a song in 60s or 70s and then about 50 years later someone like me that who lives in the other side of the globe in small city of a far country with different culture can listen and enjoy from this song.
Good luck all of you🤍
Greeting from Iran
EDIT: Thank you all for your kindness 🤍
Thank you

Peace my friend.
Peace be with you.

That has to hurt his fingers like hell to not have a pick, no?
I was born in ‘76 but remember all the great music playing in the house….the best music ❤
The last night I saw my best buddy we were cruising singing this song at the top of our lungs.. Two weeks later he was gone. I’ve carried that night with me for 40 years. I love this song!! RIP my brother….
That’s rough man, sorry for your loss. Good friends are truly hard to come by.
@Bruce Glock damn, that made me so sad, but the music keeps the good memories. Great song. I'm glad to be a son of the 70s.
He hasn't gone. This song has locked him into your heart. God bless you.
He’s been my guardian angle for 40 plus years.
@@williamferguson8344 I'm sorry for the loss of your friend.
God bless the '70s, they were some of the best years of my life some of the best music ever made came out of that time. A time when doors weren't locked, and everyone said hello.!
Well said, Sir
Yes, totally agree with you...
And it was safe to hitch hike!
Amen!
I no
Wow! Best version of this all time classic! No computers,no profanity and no bs,just highly talented musicians.
yes i would've loved to grow with this music instead this edm crap
Yeah, no fucking profanity, that's super important.
yea
Doing their craft
They were perfect ❤😊
I'm now 71 and still listening to to the golden age of growing up and free life music.
My 28 year old daughter constantly asks what it was like back then..😂🎉
My 40 year old daughter is now the caretaker of all my old vinyl albums that I bought new back then.
She treasures them and the music on them.
It was heaven compared to current times.
Reading up, this guy lived .. Served his country, joined a band, inspired a generation of musicians 🎶 went through heartache seeing his brothers pass away 🙏
Respect from across the pond .. 🇬🇧 ✌️
Toy Caldwell was a good dude. A real American, one of a kind a proud Marine and Redneck from the Carolinas. Never asked anyone for anything because he could get it on his own
@@russblack443 respect 🤜🤛
Thank you Rocco, God bless you & yours!
MFer owed me 50 bucks and some weed 😬
Thank you Rocco
Fifty years have gone by, and nothing can match the music of those days, thank you Marshall Tucker Band!
YUP
50 no way
Love ❤️
No music as the 70s
Saw them July 1973 at Sedalia Music fest. 3 days of ROCK.
I’m 74 and I still love to turn it up real loud!!!
Rock on, Betty! ❤
As well you should. Don't ever stop rockin! 🤘🇺🇸
Me too
73 here...
Because that's the only way you could hear it.
Playing this for my baby kitty Peeper. She's 14 years old and has cancer. I'm trying to keep her as comfortable as possible but I'm afraid I'll have to put her down soon.I can't stand to think of her suffering and I don't want to wait until it gets too bad. I pray the Lord lets me know the right time. She's lying by me listening to your song. She has always loved music. Thank you for giving me this moment.
@@crazycatladyjo2688 I went through this. It was very painful for me. I was distraught & hysterical in the vet's office. You'll know when it's time. I couldn't stand to see her suffer. She looked worried about me!!! She was my best friend. I rescued her from the street, but she rescued me. She was so sweet & intelligent. I've had many pets in my life, but this hit hard.
Was holding my blk lab and friend 12 yrs in my arms when vet euthnized, bad liver. 😭 Buried here on my prop.
@@BarbaraAntoinetteVeronica Thank you. I'm sorry you lost her.
@@Railride701 I'm sorry you lost them.
Toy Caldwell was a Marine rifleman in Vietnam and was WIA, receiving the Purple Heart and Bronze Star w/V device. He also used NO guitar pick, NO wah wah pedal, NO whammy bar...only his Thumb. He is my personal choice for the Greatest Guitar Player ever.
Ooh Rah and Calm Seas and Flowing Winds, brother.
Yeah he was
I did not know that. Thank you.
I didn't know that he was a Vietnam Veteran. Much respect!!!!
Absolutely. All these guys were great musicians. It continually blows my mind how great he really is, just finger picking.
I've thought he a guitar virtuoso since 1970's , the first time I saw him from the first row at a Tuscaloosa concert, that "thumbin'" and index finger, sorta like pickin' a banjo !!!
I was so lucky to be born in 1962 there won't be another Marshall Tucker Lynyrd Skynyrd Molly Hatchet Blackfoot The Allman Brothers just to name a few of the glorious southern rock bands in the world we were so blessed nobody ever hold the candle to the sixties seventies and early 80s thank you guys for your talent
You said it such great legacy
Dam straight brother!
Tell it ! 🇺🇲
Born in 69 & totally agree 👍
My wife were born then to and next week is our 40th wedding anniversary
Some say that Toy Caldwell and the Marshall Tucker Band was underrated. This vid is fast approaching 31 million views (2022). That tells me they are not underrated at all. Brilliant song writing, brilliant musicians, all played with deep emotion. Fifty years later, this is still brilliant! Thank you for this diamond in the rough.
THEY SHOUULD HAVE BEEN MORE POPULAR...ONLY HARD COURE SOUTHERN ROCKERS, LIKE ME... LOVED THIS STUFF!
I watch this video, at minimum, once a week. One of my favorite live performances ever. It's.just.SO.good.
Southern Rock. What so called country wants to be today. Great stuff.
"This vid is fast approaching 31 million views (2022). That tells me they are not underrated at all. "
Another person that does not understand YT "Views" does not equate to people watching\hearing an audio-video presentation.
All it means is a URL handshake was accomplished between two computers for ~1 second.
I have auto-play selected therefore when I am un-attendant my computer plays videos I have never seen before.
The TU\TD is a much better indicator of people that have actually "watched" the video and that is 172K as I write this.
Why does this have to be explained to so many so often?
It's like explaining what PPE is to Americans.
It's the 21st century do try to keep up, this has only been an objective fact for >35 years.
@@Mark-gg6iy Really, Mark? You actually had to write that?? Really?
Bloomers and Gen X have the best of music. Grateful to be elderly and experienced it all 1st hand. Thankfully RUclips is here to introduce the younger ones the great tunes
Just saw a 68 year old woman turn up the volume high, dance, do air guitar, and hold up her fist like a microphone and sang along. She transformed and was 20 years old again.
Rock on baby
That means it is a true rock and rock legend
We had the best shit. Man, even makes this old man have chills
I'm 60 and love the MTB been to many of there concerts back in 70s 80s I had a awesome time back in the day 🎶🎵🎸🥁🎸🎵🎶
Hellz yeah!
Im 64 i still feel this in my soul like the first time. What a great life ive had
with you Rob
I remember her and still feel the loss and the FACT i dodged a bullet.
Me too Rob. 1973. Love to do it all over again!
Me too. It was an awesome time wasn’t it
Right behind you. Listened to that Southern Sound back when music was part of life on Santee Cooper.
There will never, ever be a time that music will match the 60's and 70's. Thank GOD 🙏 for the unmatched talent of that time!!
I couldn’t agree more, 80’s can’t be touched
no, there never ever will. And if there is the world will tilt further on its axis....TG for youtube
I Was 15 yrs old in 73 what a great time to be around to experience the music
I truly believe that the difference between then and now is that the artists put the music and the rush of performing and sharing with the public first, rather than being famous and or rich.
Anyone looking for music with a similar sound and groove I highly recommend The Sheepdogs. They are the only unsigned band to ever grace the cover of Rolling Stone. Every album has more than a few gems on it.
I JUST started my Sr year of high school when this was recorded...I STILL listen too this, I made cassettes with this on it for each of my kids in the 90's, so they could HEAR the difference in music. they ALL prefer late 60's & 70's to whatever they call today's noise on the radio!!
just brings tears to my eyes how beautiful this song is. Thank you Lord for letting us experience this sound.
Brought goosebumps throughout my body
yep i am 80 i miss the old days tears also
I'm 81 and still listening to this. So many great memories!
Some things like this song never get old, and inside neither do we although our outer man may fade away someday.
That face when you remember all the memories from listening to the Marshall Tucker Band nearly 50 years ago- but can't remember why you walked into a room or where you put your teeth.
Hell yeah!!
Oh yeah! 81 and still rockin!
@@ebenezergatsby5848p
Toy Caldwell...what else is there to say about this underrated talent? The dude is playing lead and rhythm guitar here while also being the lead singer. Serious talent that is rare these days. Man nothing tops true talent music wise than the 1970s!
Amen 😊😊😊
and played with his thumb !
I was just coing to say that....the man "finger picked" ....THAT HAD TO BE difficult!@@williambreen2962
Chris Stapleton is like this guy jus pure talent
Finger picking
17 in 1977 saw these guys in Boston. We were huge southern rock fans, still am.
Went to see the eagles The Beach boys and some band named Marshall Tucker when I was 20. Went out bought the album the very next day, I'm now 67 and still enjoy every song . Thank you Doug Gray, the Caldwell Brothers, and company for so much great music and what you gave to this country
I'm 21 and I got to see them in concert with Lynard Skynard when they played a reunion or something like that they where such a great band to see play even today
8n0
Yes and Amen
Great story. I feel the same way. Great tune, great song. Best wishes to you.
67 is such a great age , we experienced so much , seen so much and were still here .
Real music, real talent, no choreographed dancing, no backup singers making the singers sound good, no skinny jeans, no fake personas and most importantly NO lip syncing! This was the real deal, which doesn’t seem to exist now.
True, so sad, the dummin' down of music in America. You would think people would demand better!

I am 85 years of age and still loving this song. I put a lot of money in the jukebox in my day to listen to this song and Heard It in a Love Song. Those were some great days during a time when we had such wonderful music as the the one put out by this outstanding band.
🔥🙏🏼🇺🇸💜God bless you as you have great taste in music❤️
Lovely story! I love them too ❤ 🎉
I'm 55 and counting 😂
Two bits three plays😅I got the Wurlitzer prize 😝

I’m 65 buddy and the 70s were the best days of my life 😊we used to hitchhike to concerts to Tampa , Florida
No hitchhiking these days
In 1973 2 friends and myself hitch hiked from New Haven CT to St.Pete Fla.Took 3 days.No better times than early 1970's.Best of music best of times.
Same age as you and I love all the classic rock and the southern rock. One of the best times I ever had was meeting a new friend at the tiki bar and this song came on and we just both loved it and we're singing our favorite line. Going to find me a hole in a wall. I'm going to crawl inside and die

i was in a Cover Band during College and we played at our Singer's Podunk NE town's H.S. Graduation so the wholle town came. we played until 11pm and ran out of songs and nobody had left so we cranked it up & played this song for about 15 minutes with about 10 guitar solos and they loved it....but were glad we stopped playing. Man i miss NE and actually enjoying life. i had to edit and clarify "Podunk" is a good thing...like The Basket of Deplorables. I'd have left CA long ago if my daughter and Grandkids weren't here.
I do want thank u for givinge greatest gift of all that was your love when I die I'm gonna take it with me hey give me some kmw u gotit with u
I gotta watch this 25 times a day. And when in done with my living room because I'm going to shake the neighborhoods house think it was loud with Jeff Healey ect
Its going to be so loud there houses are going to shake of there foundation 😜
Ohhhhhhhhhh ya
I am 66 years old and this sounds just as good to me now as it did way back when it was on the radio on 1973. We had no idea that what we were taking for granted then was actually the peak of the mountain for how good music would ever be.
Look at this people. No auto tune. Playing instruments. Making music. Guys with talent.
So true!
Loved the music, the concerts in the very late 60's through the early 70's. Before the lavish stage sets, customs and pyrotechnics that Alice Cooper and Kiss brought into play. Not dis'ing them --- They were good.
But to have seen Joplin or Zeppelin or any of the fine southern rock bands of the era, was to have seen live music at its best. Some shows better, the bands a little more rested and less partied out, but always the energy was incredible and the rapport between the bands and the fans, was genuine and only made the experience better.
I'll take the memories of life then, crazy as it was at times, with the music pulsing in my body hours after leaving a concert, over the canned, computer enhanced, corporate created, so-called bands and what passes for music, today.
There are some incredible indie groups and local bands, still playing music for the love of music, but they rarely get the great they're due.
Amazing, isn´t it ? Real talent, real instruments, real vocals......real life.
What a great sound!
real talent.........making music
Chimp Master , I hear you. this is our music. ..
The older I get, the more this song resonates.
I now listen to it once a month...
My girlfriend and I saw these guys a bunch of times in the 70s. We fell in love with them....and still love em 50 years later. And each other of course......what a ride !❤
I wish my story we stayed together...timeless beautiful song
Saw them in Mt Pleasant, MI. First concert I saw with my GF. 79 or 80
I am. I'm 68. Music exploded in the late 60's early 70's and it just kept getting better and better.
This song is an anthem of our youth. 50 yrs later nearly to the day and this song and performance still holds its own. My gosh, we were blessed. Sempre Fi. RIP Toy Caldwell.
Semper Fi ✌️♥️
I'm 61 and everytime I hear these awsome old songs it brings tears of happiness to my eyes . Miss the days of the 1970s !!! Best times of my life !
Mine too!
70"s were the best
I’m 66 one of the best ever both -Toy song and writing, singing and all around performances
I'm 61 as well (79 grad) and we were blessed with possibly the greatest decade of music.
@@snapmalloy5556 yes we were
The most beautiful song ever written! And to think it was written and played and sung by a Vietnam War Veteran! A true American Hero! Thank you Toy Caldwell! You will forever fill the hearts of millions of people with an emotionally stimulating song created and performed by a man that cannot be duplicated or done justice by any other musician.
RIP, Toy. Son of Spartanburg, S.C. He was in fact a Vietnam vet.
My uncle, Steven Edward Belville, served in the Vietnam War and suffered horrific injuries, both physically and mentally, so severe that he would return to the States an obviously and forever changed very young man, 18 or 19 years old. Barely out of childhood and had not even reached the prime of his life, when him and two of his fellow soldiers, all three young MEN, were defending their position in a foxhole as a major attack began during the Tet offensive. He was the only survivor of those three wonderful and loved young men that resulted from a volley of grenades hurled at, into and detonating in their foxhole. He wasn't able to escape that horrific battle without some of the most debilitating injuries. He lost 2 friends, two legs, an ear, an eye, suffered significant nerve damage to his arm, and mental trauma, that he would live with for the remainder of his life. God, I loved my uncle Steve! I had some incredibly wonderful uncles, but he will always remain alive in memories as such a kind, loving, MAN, that always took time to talk to me and never had a negative word to say. Thank you uncle Steve and over 50,000 soldiers who died and who knows how many that suffered mental and physical wounds for your service to YOUR and OUR country and ensuring I am able to celebrate The 4th of July each and every year!
Amen to you... This song still moves me like no other!
Yes he was a US Marine who served in Vietnam. He also received a Purple Heart.
Yeahh vietnam BAD time, but good music came out of the misery
48 years young and still listening to songs from the past. 70s 80s ..man I've listened to this song 4 straight times and now watching video of live performance ❤❤❤ pure joy is what this song gives me
I've been listening to Marshall Tucker since 1973 brother and it's 2022 and he's still sounds great
Marshall Tucker is the best band that has ever came out for southern rock they are great
+1
I was born in 77 dad sed he was playing Marshall tucher on the way home from the hospital this year I will be 45 so 45 years for me still gives me goosebumps

I can't emphasize enough how this is one of the best songs ever written and played on Gods green earth, I always play it 2 or 3 times seems I can't get enough of it, Cant You See.
Timeless baby; timeless!
Well it seems any song that mentions Georgia is Good. Devil went Down to Georgia. Call me the Breeze. Georgia on my mind. On the Dock of The Bay. Rainy Night in Georgia. Midnight Train to Georgia. Country in my Soul. Georgia Girl. Soul Like This. Rambling Man. Me and a Dog Named Boo. Oh Atlanta. Highway 20 Ride. Georgia on a Fast Train. The Moon Over Georgia. Sweet Southern Comfort. Doraville. Watermelon Crawl. Forget about Georgia. When The Lights went Out in Georgia. Georgia Rain. Chattahoochee. Georgia Sun wasBlood Red and Going Down. Macon Blues. American Dream. Oh AugustA.
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT !!!!!
It's insane how good it is. Toy Campbell should be mentioned in the same company as Allman and Betts. His singing and guitar playing are dripping in soul. The whole band was great and this tune will float through my mind when I take my last breaths on Earth (hopefully in twenty years or so!). It's beyond a 'classic' song.
Indeed
I used to listen to this song many times in a row back in this time frame, '73 and '74 because like a dumbass I broke up with my girlfriend. We finally made up, and will be married 44 years on September 11. I owe it to Toy Caldwell.
Congratulations on a great marriage the boss and I have been married 36 already life is like a vapor the good book says enjoy it.
Such a heartwarming story you shared. All of us women weren't as fortunate. A good man, for a great woman❣️
Bad Move lolololololo
You count yourself lucky having been able to patch things up with your girlfriend, and then being happily married to her for 44 years but you don't know how very, very lucky you are. You truly have been blessed by God.
Thats so awesome!
This is the anniversary of my best friend of 50 years death. This is his favorite song. We remember seeing it live in Tucson Az in 70’s. MTB is alive and well in this old hippie. Just turned 70, I’ll be on that train soon. Happy Trails to all…☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️
This classic is from a time when musicians had talent, actually sang and played their music *live* without computer enhancement. It was about the music and not about some corporate creation, so-called 'artist'. It was honest, raw and perfect in all their imperfections.
Right on sister!
amen sister you said it
So true. I lived in Greenville, SC, just down I-85 from Spartanburg (MTB's home town), in the 70s and had the pleasure and honor to see this band twice. It's natural to be nostalgic, but I do believe it was a better time, certainly where the music is concerned.
You said it honey!!
Eagles Lyin Eyes
Southern born, Southern Bred, and when I die, I'll be Southern dead...southern rock will always be some of the best music ever made RIP Caldwell boys
Ryan Neidlinger hell yeah
from a North Bronxite - still rockin to Skynyrd, Greg & Duane, Delaney & Bonnie and of course Toy and the boys
Army Vet. Sir. This band is as great as they should. Great song
.0
Still one of the great acts of then n now
Skynyrd..mtb..outlaws..charlie daniels..allmans..black snake..mountain..ccr..southern rock..god bless it and those who loved it and miss it
All mentioned above in their own class
I think the age of rock is well over.
Bullshit though! We still listenin baby!!!!!!!!!!!
molly hatchet?
@@oldnick4707 Sorry Nick, I just don’t agree.
I’m 76 and still listening. Best music of all time.
Men harmonizing together is what's missing in today's music.
Amen, brother. True in so many ways.
Love you analogy good music out there still, seek it out, go to live music venues~clubs etc. Just got back from Nashville, TN was dancing down the sidewalks from live music pouring out of clubs~restaurants, fantastic time
No feeling I today's music! Just noise!! Time to take Excedrin to today's noise, it's not music, just noise, I'm afraid!!
So sad that no one can make music like this anymore.
Capitalism produced it. They could make big money, so they worked really hard at their craft.
We're a throw away society today
Isn’t that the truth
@@-woah.I need your opinions about what I said, please let me know now
'the war on drugs' comes close
and i grew up with marshall tucker in the 70's
I'm 70 years old and that song takes me back.
Toy and The Marshall Tucker Band take me back to my childhood, I was born in 1975 and my folks played this music day/night. Take me back..., blessed to grow up when I did...!
I usually don't like live performances over the album version, but this one's it. Toy nailed it on this one. One of the greatest songs of any genre ever.
Listen to Stevie Nicks live version of Rhiannon- passionate. !
I prefer live, studio is take after take til done perfect.. I like the human aspect and sometimes different which isn't always a bad thing.. that's why I've been to over 250 shows since '74.. my opinion only
The older I get, the younger he is when I watch this.
FUCKING GREAT!!!!!!!
You must have not heard of the Dead.
I'm a youngster.. in my late 20's. I'm impressed and shocked that bands once sounded this good... live! We don't have talent like this anymore these days.
Back then they spent most of their time playing, practicing and creating - that's why they were so good cause no one was on the phone back then, even for talking. If you ever want to know what it was like, just leave your phone home when you go out for an hour, or a few hours. You will experience it.
There still is lots of talent out there, we just have to find it. Nowadays the more talented musicians rarely get recognised by the media.
Digitized music has made it too easy, and lazy. They don't have the patience to just pick up an instrument, and learn the craft.
It's what American Pie is all about, the day the real music dies.
Straw Man you are so Right, this is the best music ever played. Listen to the 70s music and you, ll fall in love with ALOT of really great songs. Trust me I know. Listen and then write me back, OK??? Patty from Detroit and now living in West Virginia.
MsCordially nah no one was on the telephone back in 73 that is the most ridiculous statement I ever heard. Girls had princess phones in there bedrooms and would talk for hours now people were never on the phone back in the seventies oh brother
Thank you 1970's for the best music ever!
Jolujo 58 the sixties were pretty good to
Wwithout a doubt
I miss the early 70's the most.
And it's not even close. 70s were the decade of true awesome music. Started sliding downhill after that. Now it's any beach blonde with a vocalizer.
You need a million thumbs up!!!
I'm 73 .Many , many concerts. Saw them live twice. Such musicians. Most bands do not sound this good live.
This is true music...he is focused on his vocals, his music..he is feeling his music. Look at his face..says it all. Miss this great music.
me and my band play this, we are bad but so fun
They will never make music like this?again
Absolutely. 👍💖
Me too!
@@ronnietoots6797 how old are you? i learned this song when it came out, D-C-G were the main chords for lots of songs that were'nt 8 or 12 bar blues with bar chords, now called power chords. we played this song again in the 80's when i was in college and our newly formed cover band ran out of songs -so we rocked this out and people went crazy..... Keep Jammin' My Friend.
Thank God this version was filmed for eternity. The peak of southern rock!
I was there as a 20 year old in Macon, Ga it was filmed for the Don Kirschner rock concert series. Everyone there was blown away. The Allman Bros. and Martin Mull also performed that night.
@@davidbrummett6178 Beautiful! You witnessed history...I'm envious...
Still an awesome song after 50 years. MTB belongs in the hall of fame.
Absolutely
Yes!
The Rock and Roll HOF is a joke. They don't deserve MTB.
Sexy band!
I'm 67 from Texas and was raised on what is now called Classic County music and even played in local County music band ( It just so happened that I was the youngest member in the band, then I started to listen to Classic Rock and learned on my own to play some Rock tunes ( Smoke on the Water and Credence Clear water and so on) music 🎶 like this song is the best Rock music then and still is. I thank God for RUclips for just having it in their format!
I reckon this is one of the coolest songs of all time.
i reckon you got it right bayden, I miss people like you.
@@ronnietoots6797 I reckon that you’re right that Hayden got it right, and I miss people like you too
This song always takes me on a journey, which seems to change as I get older. There’s something truly magical about it. It’s a masterpiece of simple storytelling.
Same here been listening since I was a kid!
Yes, I never realized it until I read your comment. That's so true. What a magical journey it is. Sure brings back memories of the good times.
Me to. I feel & believe what you said. Best wishes to you.
It truly is❤
Does me the same way ! Means something totally different now than 5 yrs ago
AS an "old man" now, I would never have thought to hear this song again after so many years and see the band. Breathtaking... Thank you so much and greetings from Germany.
Me too my friend you're not the only one I miss this song way back in time
thank God to hear again u.s.a.
And the world
I'M 74, but I don't feel like an old man. But hey, the music's great, just like when I was in my 30's.
I saw that song performed at the Texas stadium riite after it was completed in about 1970. I was trippin and when that flute started playing 8 got chills up my spine and I still do every time I hear the song. It was the best song 0f the whole concert
I feel ya brother!..I Thank God For His Grace and Mercy to allow me to still be on his Green Earth!!! So So..So many times I have cheated death!!!...Been hit by two cars,totaled at least 7..8 or 9 cars..some were pretty bad crashes!. I have driven over four and a half million safe miles in big trucks all across this Great United States of America and some Canada....Fought addiction and beat it once...25 years later, addiction blindsided me once again, im still struggling with that damnd monkey on my back But With God's Grace and Mercy And Strength That Can Come Only From Him. I will neat this addiction once again!!! Thank You Dear Lord For a Terrific Live,Healthy Family And All Of Your Many Many Many Amazing Blessings!!!.. God Bless And Be With Everone Reading This!!! Praise Be To His Name!!! Amen.
Toy was amazing, wasn't he?
85 here grateful to hav followed th boomers, all th years great folk ,rock n country. 🤠🍀🤚
I'm 66 years old and I just couldn't believe that Marshall Tucker Band would sound so good now 2020. I still listen to all those songs that leave me so grateful that I grew up in the right time.
Absolutely
Right on bro, I always knew they would sound this good because I never quit listening to them. now some of the new members of the band, leave something to be desired.
I'm 67, and I totally agree! You can understand the words, they aren't x-rated words, and the harmony, the beat, and the sound, are ALL unbeatable!!
IM 52 I WAS BORN IN THE WRONG ERA! I GREW UP ON 80'S MUSIC. 80'S WERE OK BUT NOTHING LIKE 60'S&70'S. I DRANK MY FIRST BEER TO HOTEL CALIFORNIA!!I WON'T TELL YOU HOW OLD I WAS!!
With a world in turmoil it feels good to see we can all come together through feel good music❤️🌹🇺🇸
I wish I could "like" this a million times.
same here Mth
Like a million times, saw MTB, CDB & Skynyrd live in the 70’s. My heart is broken about Charlie tonight. RIP patriot
A million comments would suffice.
But, yeah, I agree.
Same I’m a kid and I love ❤️ it
Me 2!!!
Again, I'm with you. This is one of my favorites in the old age.
Thank you for being here.
Such a great 70’s classic. They sure don’t make songs like this anymore.
I was 19 when this song came out and I’m still listening to it today… grew up in San Francisco in the 60s now I’m 70 and I lived when they made the best music …
I am still listening, with my old hippie ears and my old-fashioned heart
