In an era that produced many great front men Jimmy Hall was one of the best. Jimmy plays harmonica and saxophone as well. Jimmy is still performing at an amazing level.
The Charlie Daniels Volunteer Jams in the late 70's and early 80's were fabulous. The format was Charlie would play a full set and the rest of the night was surprise guests who would generally perform two songs. I saw everyone from James Brown to Willie Nelson to Ted Nugent. Stevie Ray (first album tour), Lynyrd Skynyrd (first performance after crash), Carl Perkins, Billy Joel, Molly Hatchet, Alabama are a few more that come to mind.The Jam was a yearly highlight.
I am a city boy from the country…or a country boy from the city. Either way, in the 70s I happened to see Wet Willie 3 times in less than 6 months. Each time they were the opening act for the other 3 different bands I actually bought tickets to see.
The Volunteer Jam was a music festival Charlie Daniels band hosted in Nashville for ,I think, over 40 years.He had southern rock and country artists on it. Wet Willie was the band’s name
Very popular in the South back in the 70's. (Southern Rock). Keep On Smilling and Weekend were their most famous songs Nationally. My favorite song by them is Street Corner Serenade and another great song is Everything That You Do Will Come Back To You!!!!!!!!. Other song Grits Ain't Groceries and Country Side Of Life.
I never noticed it before, but this live version has a little J Geils Band vibe to it, a lá “Musta Got Lost” live. Britt, you really should check that one out if you haven’t already.
I saw Wet Willie in 1979 in Ft. Smith, Arkansas. I was 16 and my 3rd concert ever. (Been to 1000s) They came out and jaws dropped when only the first 2 rows were filled. I felt embarrassed for them. But, they said " not many people here, but were gonna rock you anyway". They were fantastic. We left at intermission and drove 10 min to Oklahoma in my 75 Nova to buy beer with our homemade fake IDs and back to our undisturbed seats. AHHH Good Times!!
The singer for the band blues traveler has a harmonica belt and a bullet war strap converted in a harmonica strap.. I don't believe you have reacted to Blues Traveler yet but you will be blown away when you do❤😮
I was lucky to grow up in the 70s. ^0s and 70s music, Bands and artists are the best. For whatever reason, that doesn't exist anymore. We have the video and records though, from that era. Thank you
I saw Jimmy Hall with Wet Willie in 1974....and in 2019 by himself and a travel band...He still sounded great, Harmonica,Sax and all..........Try... "Country Side of Life" "trust in the Lord" "Street Corner Serenade"
From my hometown. Jimmy was also who Jeff Beck choose as his vocalist after Rod Stewart and they toured for years. Jimmy also was Hank Williams Jr. musical director for years and years. Definately check the other songs others have mentioned. Weekend is THE Friday afternoon home from work song down here!
Little ole band out Mobile Alabama during 1970's Southern Rock era. There is a new little ole band out of Mobile named the Red Clay Strays. Check out there top 20 country hit Wondering Why.
I saw Wet Willie a couple of times back in the day, usually opening for the Charlie Daniels Band or another more prominent Southern rock band. Always a good show! And generally harmonica players have a harp for every key. A cousin of mine is a pretty good blues harmonica player in South Carolina, and he has one of those harmonica belts.
You need to hear every Wet Willie Album so buy them and that is a recommendation but She's My Lady Lucy Was in Trouble Grits Aint Groceries are 3 full recommendations ...Stick with studio album versions if it is possible ..I can pick the best ones and send them to an email address if you really want to check out more of this band ..they do have a You Tube channel also that may have all of the albums on file ..
Sounds about like the black Baptist church I a used to pass on my way home from the First Baptist church. That preacher didn’t return to tell us he got the spirit to rell us a little more, we had one that would tell us he was going to wrap the sermon up because the Cowboys kink off err 12:30. It’s not necessarily clueless just Boone to the bone
Q: How to get an infant to sleep? A: Get yourself a harmonica, sit in a rocking chair and then breathe in and out through the harmonica at the pace you want to the baby to be breathing so that the baby that sleep comes. Nothing fancy. Just breathe.
@brittreacts praying for you, your husband and child. You made a wise statement. This too shall pass. It will . Your own children will be the greatest joy in your life. Take time to store all the memories in your mind. Before you know it they will be grown.
My daughter was the perfect child. She slept through the night immediately and all through her childhood. Either that, or my wife gave her Benadryl every night.
Keep On Smilin' -- Wet Willie Album version . Jimmy Hall is fantastic. But gosh darn if this performance don't rock !! Jimmy is showin' off here, but that is a good thing .
My mam told me thar the doctor said (a long time ago) to dip my dummy/ pacifier in whisky when i was teething. I quite like whisky now😅 Let your baby roam around , not stuck in a stroller, no use to you or them, talk to them all the time. And play.😊
We had 3 in diapers at once ! Starting at 2 weeks they slept 6 to 8 hours. Put them in bed and if they wake up check their health ...change diaper if needed.....lights back out immediately and go back to bed. No rocking during your sleep time. In a week or 2 when they learn that there is no reward to wake up and cry for attention. ....they sleep. NEVER put them in your bed....they will wont to be there for years lol
BRITT honey... Make CATNIP TEA for him.. Yes, it's very safe. I made it for my son. He was around your boys age. After you make the tea, dilute it to half.. Sleep well girl.🤗
I think it's bad luck and your baby is teething - sometimes you are to close to realize what it is. Of course church, gospel music helped many musicians (even if they sometimes don't know it) - I am using e.g. Splat-to-Clat (iPad drum rhythm sets) - these are the best (interesting) poly-rhythmic-patterns for little money - these guys have a gospel background and are quite awesome ($ 15 f. iPad-version).

I love you you are spot on about the singing preacher I love it
Hey those are the best church services

Jimmy Hall straight from Alabama. Saw Wet Wille many times! He's still bringing it today. In his 70's. What a voice!!!❤

Jimmy Hall does this song with Blackberry Smoke ( Live from the Capricorn Studios ) and it is very very good
emphasis on very.

And we won't go into what wet willie meant if you asked a southern high school boy.
went to my first Vol Jam in 79 at the Auditorium and the last in 2018 at Bridgestone with a couple in the middle at Starwood

I hadn't thought about this song for a long time. Thank you for sharing this one. I bought this album when I was a teenager. Wish I still had it.

Wet Wilie was part of the "Southern Rock" genre. They always put on a good show. Check out "That's Allright" and "Grits Ain't Groceries."
I can totally see the Rolling Stones hearing this and going "this is what we want to be".
and also I can hear Mick saying "They call themselves 'Wet Willie'...that's bloody purr-fect"
Volunteer Jam was, or maybe is, a sporadic concert series devoted to southern rock and country. Originally produced by Charlie Daniels.
Check out the studio version. The break after the harmonica solo is not to be missed. Love ya gurl...keep on smiling!

He is telling everyone no matter what you are going through don’t let it get you down because there is always a bright side
Wet Willie is the name of the band. Jimmy Hall is the lead singer.
Great song! Loved this!

Beyond Awesome 🔥

Thanks!
Thank YOU!
Whole Band...So good.
Check of wit welly on the Midnight Special...great live show...his sister is one of the back up singers
Amen
Check out Wet Willie - Weekend. One of my favourite nostalgic songs from the 70's.
Great "Get Up" music!!!
The wetter the better
Useless Trivia - The Daiquiri Bar Wet Willies' first location was on River Street in Savannah, Ga.
And it's still there! Strong-ass drinks.
@@Yowza78 especially if you get it with an extra shot of 151.

Street Corner Serenade is another great song by Wet Willie
Got to check out their song Weekend
Speaking of Willie, check out Sweet: Little Willie...early 70's glam rockers that inspired Kiss and Motley Crew..

Tennessee’s nickname is the Volunteer State.

Stank Face! Love it
I've sang this at karaoke night. Nothing like him however .lol
Our kids slept thru the night. All you can do is keep smiling and be thankful you don't have holes in your shoes!
So true!
@brittreacts praying for you, your husband and child. You made a wise statement. This too shall pass. It will . Your own children will be the greatest joy in your life. Take time to store all the memories in your mind. Before you know it they will be grown.
'Leona' was another hit you might like.
Gonna make a change from city boy to country man 🤘👏
Check out “countryside of life” from Wet Willy…funkalicious!
My daughter was the perfect child. She slept through the night immediately and all through her childhood. Either that, or my wife gave her Benadryl every night.
Check out Macon Georgia Greasy Hambone Blue.
If you wanna hear harmonica, check out “ Blues Traveler”
I think you’ll love it. He has harmonica belts over his shoulders.
I’ll check it out!
Benadryl for infants will do the trick... Until you get the LAD back on the right sleep pattern
Britt letting the real meaning of the bands name slide ..hehe🤭🤭
Keep On Smilin' -- Wet Willie
Album version . Jimmy Hall is fantastic.
But gosh darn if this performance don't rock !! Jimmy is showin' off here, but that is a good thing .
Another reason why live can be much less filling than the studio. The original line is "Are you a farmer? Are you a star?" It shouldn't be changed.
I always thought the line was “are you a bum or are you a star?”
Makes more sense to me…
@@michaelkearney2186 Hey me too!
@@michaelkearney2186 I thought maybe it was at Farm Aid, but it's Volunteer Jam IV. No reason to change the line and ruin the song.
@@chrisjamieson3452 I don't think it ruins the song at all, I just always heard it differently
BTW....Streetcorner Serenade is good too
Check out Wet Willie “Street corner serenade “ an awesome song!
I’ll give it a try!

Those are jump suits
Have you tried Gripe water for the baby
NFs catalog definitely for this channel.
We had 3 in diapers at once !

Thicken up the last bottle with rice cereal. MILK/FORMULA probably won't do it anymore. That baby is most likely hungry❤
BRITT honey... Make CATNIP TEA for him.. Yes, it's very safe. I made it for my son. He was around your boys age. After you make the tea, dilute it to half.. Sleep well girl.🤗
You should check out grits ain't groceries by wet Willie
I’ll check it out!

Thicken up the baby formula with rice so the baby will have a full stomach and sleep longer
Jumpsuits
Good tune.
I'm not so familiar with Wet Willy, but have always appreciated Blind Willy - especially when jamming with Big Mama Thornton.
