Dr. Hook were a great easy rock band. Their best hits include: "Better Love Next Time", "Sexy Eyes", "A Little Bit More", "Sylvia's Mother" "When You're In Love With S Beautiful Woman".
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "When You're in Love with a Beautiful Woman", "The Cover of Rolling Stone" and "Sylvia's Mother"!! " edit- Dennis Locorriere on lead vocals.
Dr. Hook had a bunch of great songs. This one was a bit on the "easy listening" end of the spectrum. Try surlechapeau's suggestions or "Only Sixteen", or "I Got Stoned and I Missed It"
So many great Dr. Hook songs. Like others have said "A Little Bit More", When You're In Love With a Beautiful Woman", "Sexy Eyes", "Only Sixteen", "Freakin' At The Freakers Ball", you can't go wrong with any of them and most of their songs were written by Shel Silversteen, the same guy that wrote "A Boy Named Sue", as well as the kid's books "The Giving Tree" and "Where the Sidewalk Ends".
Shel was a trip! He was a poet, children's author, songwriter/performer (he recorded stuff like SARAH CYNTHIA SYLVIA STOUT, among others), pop artist(his adult work often appeared in Playboy), and did occasional TV appearances on late nite TV. (OOPS, JUST SAW 'JUST ME' BEAT ME TO THE ABOVE MENTIONED 'SARAH').
nice only sixteenis great. its a sam cooke cover...and you know a great number of his students at this point. rod stewart, james taylor, and steve perry have all sat at the feet of the master sam cooke. you will want to work your way through his stuff at some point!
I can't believe you've never heard of Dr hook before.. Being Gen X I grew up with Dr hook.. Beautiful vocals & great songs!!! Dennis Locorriere is the lead singer... LOOVVEE DR HOOK!!!!
I know you guys are amazed at how bold and smooth the pick-up lines seemed to be. In this day and age he would have been labeled as a creeper or worse. But coming out of the "Free Love" movement of the 60s and the "Wife-Swapping" movement of the 70s, no this is just how it was. You could go up to a groovy chick and say things like "How about a pizza and a shag?'" and that's what would happen. A very different time, kids. A very different time.
Dennis Locorriere is the lead singer, he's awesome. I love this band that started out as nothing more than a bar band. The Cover of the Rolling Stone (at that time was the name of the magazine that all bands and singers wanted to be in) was the very first song I ever heard on the radio
I love the one live video I saw of them doing "Cover"... omg they looked like they were TRASHED... it was hilarious! Really great song, I sure hope Jay and Amber react to it sometime.
First one I remember was SYLVIA'S MOTHER just prior to COVER OF R.S. - and just watched it on Y.T., after half a century SYLVIA's MOTHER still puts tears in my eyes.
Request "Sexy Eyes", "When You’re In Love With A Beautiful Woman", "Better Love Next Time", and "A Little Bit More." In no particular order. All are good.
GREAT 70s band!! They had some truly awesome songs like "On the Cover of Rolling Stone", "Only Sixteen", "Sylvia's Mother", "A Little Bit More", "When You're in Love With a Beautiful Woman", and "Better Love Next Time". Dennis Lacorriere is the lead vocalist.
If you listen to this group again, you will be shocked when you hear their other lead singer, the guy with the hat and the eye pitch. His voice is one of the most gravelly voices I’ve ever heard. He is right next to Wolfman Jack. Listen to “On the Cover of the Rolling Stone.” It is AMAZING!!!
It will be hilarious seeing a reaction to 'The Cover of Rolling Stone'...especially having an expectation to the band after seeing this. You may not believe it at first...but yes, it is the same band. Dennis Locorriere always had one of the voices that surprised me the most, as when you saw him, you didn't expect that voice...but his voice was always so soothing. 'When You're in Love With a Beautiful Woman' is probably my favorite song by them, a big hit of theirs...but all the songs folks have mentioned are worth listening to.
Yep, right on! 1983 Christmas holiday weekend at the nurse's dorm in Wittlich, Germany, proved the power of this song and Dr. Hooks greatest hits as I brought it along and didn't get back to Spangdahlem, AFB until the next day, great memories ❤
Dr Hook released 30 singles and of those, 20 were top 100 hits. These guys will take you on a ride. A lot of great love songs and a bunch of crazy, silly songs.
The extended version of this song is pure gold. That guitar solo in the interlude is such a magnificent piece of work. So powerful and still so smooth and soft. ❤️
I remember they used to be called Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show. Dr. Hook’s voice is so smooth in this song and his pickup lines are polite and gentle
Dr. Hook- Medley is incredible! One of their best performances. You also get to hear the vocals better from the drummer and the keyboard player, a must watch!
Dennis, with that sly grin and bedroom eyes...he was a charmer 😍. Please give "When you're in love with a beautiful woman" a listen! You guys will love it!
I was a fan of Dr. HOOK back in the Day . They had alot of hits you would be surprised. They performed at my father's school he taught at in the 80's or 90's . That was nice of them to do . Thanks for covering this group they deserve the attention.
KIDSSSSSS!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOUUUUUUUUUU!!! I've been asking for this for a while and you delivered. They also have "Sexy Eyes" and "When you're inlove with a beautiful woman" all great songs.
I saw Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show many times in concert, on occasion they'd invite the audience back to the hotel bar after the concert & the music would continue.... Dennis Locorriere is the lead here. Ray Sawyer (cowboy hat & patch) sang mainly backing vocals but sang lead on their hit "The Cover of the Rolling Stone". My favorite is "Sylvia's Mother". Children's author, Shel Silverstein, who wrote "Where the Sidewalk Ends" & "The Giving Tree", wrote many of their hits. He also wrote "A Boy Named Sue" by Johnny Cash.
One of my all time favorite bands. It’s about time guys. I’ve seen them live several times. Dennis’ voice is so smooth and he does such sexy love songs. Ray (eye patch) does lead vocals too. The bands styles of songs can be quite different and you will be surprised. Sexy, funny, raunchy lol. I love them all. People have suggested some really good ones. Not sure if Years From Now has been suggested yet. It is quite touching and was even used as a wedding song by people I know. Please give them more air time. As always. Love you guys.
One of my favourite bands. So many brilliant songs, you definitely have to do more. Sylvia’s Mother, A little bit more, cover of the rolling stone are definitely worth checking out 😊👍
These guys were so good live! They brought the Capital Centre to their feet!! Ahh the memories. I have been blessed to see some of the best at their peak!!
Dennis Locorriere sings lead most of the time. Ray Sawyer (eye patch guy) sang lead on Cover of the Rolling Stone. I love this band - talented and just plain good music.
These Guys are so awesome to see in Concert, I have been fortunate to have seen them 3 times and once was on my Honeymoon back in 1981 and they had my Husband and I on Stage and sang when you're in Love with a Beautiful Woman and Sexy Eyes and after the Concert they gave Us a Night at A Hotel as a Wedding Gift, we had only been Married for 3 Days and The Concert was part of Our Wedding Gift From Our Bosses....
@Don't Hate Me - I'm Just A Messenger Thank You, We were very Blessed, Unfortunately My Husband Passed Away in 2015 but I have so many wonderful memories... You're right Great Music never goes out of Style.. Even though he is gone I still Dance ... Blessings to you... 🌹🤗🙏
@Don't Hate Me - I'm Just A Messenger Thank You 🌹 I made a Promise and I can do nothing less until it's my time and we are together again... Blessings to you!!! 🌹🤗🙏
" She Was Only Sixteen" another great Dr. Hook cover song. Such a wonderful band with a string of great hits. "Sylvia's Mother" another great song. Don't forget them. More Dr Hook please. Ray Sawyer does the vocals Jordan. 🎶🎶🎶 Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️❤️ 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
This one was so so, you’ll get a better feel for them listening to “On the cover of the rolling stone”, “Sylvia’s Mother” and “ When you’re in love with a beautiful Woman”
Omg!! this group were part of my early years.Favourite song has to be "A little bit more" ,but there are so many wonderful ,easy listening tunes.Great choice guys.
I love your reaction to this song, which I have loved for years, probably longer that you've been alive!. The lead singer on this one is Dennis Locorriere and the guy with the eye patch is Ray Sawyer. This band is truly a great rabbit hole for you to dive into! They have so many great songs I won't even attempt to list them. But they have "easy listening" songs like this, and "rock" songs and many songs with a touch of humor. Keep reacting to them!
Don’t mistake this band as loving song writers. They are true hippies. You have to check out “Cover of the Rolling Sone, Queen of the silver Dollar, and most importantly, Sylvia’ Mother”.
Dr. Hook's whole catalogue is worth listening to. Two songs that show each end of their spectrum are the soft and sensitive "A little bit more" and the 'Party on!' vibe of "Freakin' at the freakers ball". Both amazing in their own ways. And everything in the middle is just as good! My personal favorite though has got to be 'Sylvia's Mother'. They are one of the few bands where you can pick a song at random and be totally happy with your choice!
Great band from the mid 70s to the early 80s. They were really something live. They had a blast on stage and connected so well to everyone in the audience.
Great band that a lot of people sadly have not heard of 😢. And ! They were fantastic to see in person, lots of fun and great energy. This rabbit hole will be lots of fun , thanks 🙏
Does my heart good to see y'all enjoyed your first taste of Dr. Hook (and the Medicine Show). Like so many have already posted, there are so many. Among those mentioned, Baby Makes Her Blue Jeans Talk and The Cover of Rolling Stone are iconic, and of course, "I Got Stoned and I Missed It". 😉♥
Fun fact, Rolling Stone Magazine was the epitome of making it in the music world. To be on the cover meant you had made it! Their song Cover of the Rolling Stone did it for them. They are the ONLY band in history to get on the cover simply by singing about it! This band had a lot of fun songs (One Step from the Jungke to the zoo and be sure to check out the yodel song! Lol) as well as many beautiful songs (Carry me Carrie, Sylvia's mother). I've seen them perform 6 times. Sadly Ray Sawyer has passed on (the eye patch guy) and he did sing lead quite often as well
I’ve never seen your guys content before but I could tell after the first few lines that the dude was thinking that this was pretty smooth lyrics and then his grin got me when it hit the parts about the lights being low. Now I think he might like to use Dr. Hook content in the future. You got bit 😊 Great band, love many of their songs but this one for sure tops the charts
Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show once did a concert at which the warmup band failed to show. Dr. Hook and the band went onstage wearing only jeans and tee shirts, pretended to be the warm up band and played a set of old fifties songs. The fans started yelling “We want Dr. Hook!”. They finished the set, changed clothes and came back out as themselves to loud cheers from the audience. Greatest joke ever!
Great song. People were definitely more upfront in the 70's and 80's. People met in person then, and were able to relate to each other as people, not just profiles on an iphone. The lead singer is Dennis Loccoriere, and you're right...he has a beautiful voice. I think he's still performing.
Can't believe it's taken this long for you to get to Dr Hook! Such a cool, unique band. I just love their groove! I remember grabbing a girl and slow dancin' to this in High School, hoping we'd be sharing the night together.
Great reaction, yet again! I was running through a mental Playlist while watching, and it seems all but one of the songs that I thought to recommend has been suggested. The one that I didn’t see suggested was “I got Stoned and I Missed It”. It’s one of, if not THE most humorous song that Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show recorded. It’s definitely good for a laugh. Love you guys!
Some other great songs of Dr Hook are "Sexy Eyes", "When you're in love with a beautiful woman", "Sylvia's Mother" and "A Little Bit More" They were big in the 70's
His voice is what a super smooth whiskey would sound like. I still love this song so much! This is one of those songs you dance to in the kitchen after the kiddos are asleep!
Top 5 favorite artists of all time. Way before my time but I've always loved them. "A couple more years" "cover of the rolling stones" "freakin at the freakers ball" "silvia's mother"
“Levitate” and “Millionaire” are 2 of my favourites from them. I also love “Cover of the Rolling Stone.” All bangers that are worth a look. Great reaction, thx guys.
The song was originally going to b called spending the night together but changed it to sharing they're a great band Sylvias Mother is a must listen 😊😊
When I was a kid they would play this on the radio and at the skating rink for couples only skate .Imagine how cool it was skate dancing around the rink to this song .. Hearing and feeling the flow along with the breeze in your face is a feeling that you would/could never forget .. Or being out cruising around just as the sun is setting with your girl/woman sitting next to you in the car with the windows down feeling the evening breeze .. You have to put this on a thumb drive or blue tooth it in your car .. and go for a drive around sunset , roll your windows down and turn the tunes way up .. You will see what I mean .. This is one reason why the 70's and 80's were magical times .. We made it magical even without drugs or drinks .. Music , mood and memories ... Most all of the music from that time was made for 4 things dancing , driving and chilling ... hooking up/making babies .....
"The Cover of Rolling Stone" and "Sylvia's Mother' and "When You're in Love with a Beautiful Woman", Dr HOOK was the best example of 'soft rock' play on radio
Thank you SO MUCH for reacting to Dr. Hook! They are my #1 favorite band. I agree with the other suggestions to cover more of their songs. Judy is one of my top recommendations but it is a lesser known song. 🥰🥰🥰
The mother of one of the group used to have an antique/curio shop in Mystic, CT. She has several of the Gold albums up her walls. This was always a fun group and I enjoyed their stuff.
Dr. Hook was one of my fave bands in the 70's, the lead singer Dennis Locorriere is from NJ (where I live now) and he now lives in the UK (where I am from)! There have been about 8 or more in the band over the years, their first hit in the UK was "Sylvia's Mother", lots of other great hits too including my favourite "A Little Bit More" which is my favourite, you will love them.
Dr. Hook were a great easy rock band. Their best hits include:
"Better Love Next Time", "Sexy Eyes", "A Little Bit More", "Sylvia's Mother" "When You're In Love With S Beautiful Woman".
Cover of the Rolling Stone
@Brian
Oh yeah! Can’t forget that one!
Get My Rocks Off
@@italoblu While you're freakin' at the Freaker's Ball? 😂
When you're in love with with a beautiful woman...one of my faves.
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "When You're in Love with a Beautiful Woman", "The Cover of Rolling Stone" and "Sylvia's Mother"!! "
edit- Dennis Locorriere on lead vocals.
Add "A Little Bit More" to your list. Great selections!
Dr. Hook had a bunch of great songs. This one was a bit on the "easy listening" end of the spectrum. Try surlechapeau's suggestions or "Only Sixteen", or "I Got Stoned and I Missed It"
"Sylvia's Mother" is something special...!
Carry me Carrie, Queen of the Silver Dollar, Baby makes her Blue Jeans Talk.
Yes these three are signature Dr. Hook, must listens!
So many great Dr. Hook songs. Like others have said "A Little Bit More", When You're In Love With a Beautiful Woman", "Sexy Eyes", "Only Sixteen", "Freakin' At The Freakers Ball", you can't go wrong with any of them and most of their songs were written by Shel Silversteen, the same guy that wrote "A Boy Named Sue", as well as the kid's books "The Giving Tree" and "Where the Sidewalk Ends".
:D "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout.....would not take the garbage out!" One of my favorites. :)
I did not know that! Thanks for sharing that cool trivia!
Shel was a trip! He was a poet, children's author, songwriter/performer (he recorded stuff like SARAH CYNTHIA SYLVIA STOUT, among others), pop artist(his adult work often appeared in Playboy), and did occasional TV appearances on late nite TV. (OOPS, JUST SAW 'JUST ME' BEAT ME TO THE ABOVE MENTIONED 'SARAH').
@@jollyrodgers7272 :D I always felt like Ms. Stout was a kindred spirit back when it was *my* job to take out the trash.
nice only sixteenis great. its a sam cooke cover...and you know a great number of his students at this point. rod stewart, james taylor, and steve perry have all sat at the feet of the master sam cooke. you will want to work your way through his stuff at some point!
"When you're in love with a beautiful woman" is such a great song. Dr. Hook is a really underrated band. I loved them!!!
-underrated is so overused !-
I've said the exact same thing. Way underrated in their performances!
I can't believe you've never heard of Dr hook before..
Being Gen X I grew up with Dr hook..
Beautiful vocals & great songs!!!
Dennis Locorriere is the lead singer...
LOOVVEE DR HOOK!!!!
I know you guys are amazed at how bold and smooth the pick-up lines seemed to be. In this day and age he would have been labeled as a creeper or worse.

You really should do ...Dr Hook On The Cover of The Rolling Stone. It was their first hit. Awesomeness
Yes!!
Yes I agree
Please do the live version. They are fun to watch too.
Yes!!
The song was written by famous children's poet Shel Silverstein as well.
Dennis Locorriere is the lead singer, he's awesome. I love this band that started out as nothing more than a bar band. The Cover of the Rolling Stone (at that time was the name of the magazine that all bands and singers wanted to be in) was the very first song I ever heard on the radio

Request "Sexy Eyes", "When You’re In Love With A Beautiful Woman", "Better Love Next Time", and "A Little Bit More." In no particular order. All are good.

You two have got to do more of Dr.Hook !!! Lots of great songs and the guy with the eyepatch is a hilarious character (he sings lead too ) !!! 👍💗
Such a flood of memories when i hear Dr Hook. My parents had their albums back in the 70s. Kind of an underrated band.
Dr. Hook had lots of good songs, already listed below by others. A really cool soft rock group that always had something playing on the radio.
Yep, right on! 1983 Christmas holiday weekend at the nurse's dorm in Wittlich, Germany, proved the power of this song and Dr. Hooks greatest hits as I brought it along and didn't get back to Spangdahlem, AFB until the next day, great memories ❤
Dr Hook released 30 singles and of those, 20 were top 100 hits. These guys will take you on a ride. A lot of great love songs and a bunch of crazy, silly songs.
Dr. Hook is and will always be one of my all-time favourite bands, One of their more provocative songs is freaking at the freaker’s ball
Three of their hits come to mind immediately "OnThe Cover Of The Rolling Stone", "Sylvia's Mother", "I Got Stoned And Missed It"
I got stoned and I missed it! What a fun song!!!
Love all of these old 70's hits. That decade was all about making love not war. This song is smooth.
I was 18 when this song came out In 1978 ,,, I MISS the 70s Sooo Baaaad
Sylvia’s Mother is gold.
The extended version of this song is pure gold. That guitar solo in the interlude is such a magnificent piece of work. So powerful and still so smooth and soft. ❤️
Freakin' At The Freakers Ball I LOVE Dr. Hook
I remember they used to be called Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show. Dr. Hook’s voice is so smooth in this song and his pickup lines are polite and gentle
Ray Schultz
My personal favorite 2 songs by Dr Hook and the Medicine Show are
Freakers Ball - just a funny song
From the Jungle to the Zoo.
I LOVE DR. HOOK!!! So glad y'all enjoyed them! You HAVE TO listen to "Sexy Eyes" next! It's much more uptempo than this song. You'll love it!
Released in Oct 1979 Amber its 70s Baby
Dr Hook - Sylvia'a Mother! Great Song
Dr. Hook- Medley is incredible! One of their best performances. You also get to hear the vocals better from the drummer and the keyboard player, a must watch!

The one that I didn’t see suggested was “I got Stoned and I Missed It”. It’s one of, if not THE most humorous song that Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show recorded. It’s definitely good for a laugh. Love you guys!
I agree and I also love 'You Make My Pants Want To Get Up And Dance' 😊
@@jackielouise7538 Yeah, that’s a good one, too! 😁
FINALLY!!! Nice… you need to explore it more for sure!
Always love me some Dr. Hook.
I haven’t heard this for a minute. What a flashback
I have always enjoyed Dr. Hook. They have many different types of songs, but they always seemed to be enjoying themselves in the videos.
Amazing song, bringing back memories 😊 I grew up in the 70s and 80s 😊 amazing time
Some other great songs of Dr Hook are "Sexy Eyes", "When you're in love with a beautiful woman", "Sylvia's Mother" and "A Little Bit More" They were big in the 70's
SUPER BIG 70s coolness
His voice is what a super smooth whiskey would sound like. I still love this song so much! This is one of those songs you dance to in the kitchen after the kiddos are asleep!
Top 5 favorite artists of all time. Way before my time but I've always loved them. "A couple more years" "cover of the rolling stones" "freakin at the freakers ball" "silvia's mother"
Seeing you two in sync loving new music together brings me joy. Thank you God bless your family
This one took me back to my teenage years thanks so much love y'all 💟
Grew up late 70s early 80s. Dr Hook was so bomb. Best dancing music. Best laying out under the stars music. Best everything chill music.
I love Dr.Hook. One of my favorites by them is Baby Makes Her Blue Jeans Talk.
“Levitate” and “Millionaire” are 2 of my favourites from them. I also love “Cover of the Rolling Stone.”
All bangers that are worth a look.
Great reaction, thx guys.
Wonderful choice guy’s easy listening makes your soul smile 😃
Loved this song.. another cruising with that special person.. late night.. 70s-80's. School weekends
The song was originally going to b called spending the night together but changed it to sharing they're a great band Sylvias Mother is a must listen 😊😊
Now you need to react to "Sylvia's Mother" and "Cover Of The Rolling Stone(true story) both by Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show.
Haven’t heard this for years! I forgot how good they are!!
Love them. One of my favorite songs by them is A Little Bit More. ❤️
ppl were nicer back then bc we were hearing gentle songs like this ALL the time! Lol
Dennis' voice is sooooo unique
Great choice for the first time out. Thank you!
"Sexy Eyes" is another 🔥 song by Dr. Hook.
When I was a kid they would play this on the radio and at the skating rink for couples only skate .Imagine how cool it was skate dancing around the rink to this song .. Hearing and feeling the flow along with the breeze in your face is a feeling that you would/could never forget .. Or being out cruising around just as the sun is setting with your girl/woman sitting next to you in the car with the windows down feeling the evening breeze .. You have to put this on a thumb drive or blue tooth it in your car .. and go for a drive around sunset , roll your windows down and turn the tunes way up .. You will see what I mean .. This is one reason why the 70's and 80's were magical times .. We made it magical even without drugs or drinks .. Music , mood and memories ... Most all of the music from that time was made for 4 things dancing , driving and chilling ... hooking up/making babies .....
"The Cover of Rolling Stone" and "Sylvia's Mother' and "When You're in Love with a Beautiful Woman", Dr HOOK was the best example of 'soft rock' play on radio
Thank you SO MUCH for reacting to Dr. Hook! They are my #1 favorite band. I agree with the other suggestions to cover more of their songs. Judy is one of my top recommendations but it is a lesser known song. 🥰🥰🥰
Can never go wrong with Dr. Hook
'Little bit more' is my all time favourite Dr Hook song. So beautiful 😍
Some great Dr. Hook suggestions above. Another to check out is “Baby Makes Her Blue Jeans Talk.”
Great song. Also check out "You Make My Pants Wanna Dance"
“Sylvia’s Mother”…they also have a smooth cover version of Sam Cooke’s “Only Sixteen”
Cover of the Rolling Stone is a must
The mother of one of the group used to have an antique/curio shop in Mystic, CT. She has several of the Gold albums up her walls. This was always a fun group and I enjoyed their stuff.
love Dr. Hook, Freakin at the Freakers Ball, and their version of Marie Laveau , pretty much anything!
Dr. Hook was one of my fave bands in the 70's, the lead singer Dennis Locorriere is from NJ (where I live now) and he now lives in the UK (where I am from)! There have been about 8 or more in the band over the years, their first hit in the UK was "Sylvia's Mother", lots of other great hits too including my favourite "A Little Bit More" which is my favourite, you will love them.
We are still waiting for a bell ring for APRIL WINE “Roller, I Like To Rock, Sign of the Gypsy Queen or Anything You Want You Got It”
Also - Rock Myself To Sleep - Oowatanite - Tonite Is A Wonderful Time To Fall In Love
Yes, second that.
