He definitely could play
To get a better picture, let's start with the song itself. The melody is virtually a note for note copy of Henry Thomas's 1923 "Bull-Doze Blues", with the flute sitting in for the original quills. It has new lyrics, which were written by Alan Wilson, who is "singing" and playing guitar in the video. Thomas was not given any songwriting credit.
The gentleman "playing" the flute in the video was Bob "the Bear" Hite, who was the lead singer for most Canned Heat songs. He also played guitar and harmonica, but not flute. The actual flautist was noted session saxophonist and Wrecking Crew member Jim Horn.
When this was recorded, it was quite common for bands to be forced to lip-synch for TV appearances. As @Chris Storms surmises below, the band was intentionally making it clear that this wasn't a live performance. Hite's flute acrobatics are obvious, but virtually none of Alan Wilson's lip movements match the lyrics or even sync with the music.
Ooo thank you so much for that detailed background, I’ll have to take a listen to “Bull-Doze Blues”. And if you take a look at the original video you’ll find that the singer does sync with the video - it was down to my method of recording this video that it appears not to. Thanks again 😃🙏
@@ClaireHoldich - I checked out the RUclips vid, and Wilson is indeed syncing, although it still looks like an obvious, and lackluster, sync.
American Band Stand was a great example of that happening. Some bands refused to play on the show because of being forced to lip-sync. In this video of Canned Heat, you can easily see they were doing just that.
@@lorriefequet82 Sounds reasonable! Thanks!
Alan Wilson is my favorite "singer" of all time..
His soft, melancholic tone suits me so much and touches me deeply ❤
Pretty sure the guy faffing around with the flute is Bob Hite, who was the bands lead vocalist.
Ah, thanks, and thanks for watching! 😄🙏
The flutist is Bob (The Bear) Hite, and he did actually play the flute (I saw them numerous times)... The singer, Alan Wilson, died in 1970... Keep in mind, when you are watching rock & rollers playing the flute, that many of them are self-taught, most notably Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull...
Oh, by the way, I like your pudding...
Thanks William. I'm a big fan of Ian Anderson, you'll find some Jethro Tull content here on the channel. And if by pudding you mean the little furry figure in the background, well there is a whole story behind that one connected to my livestreams - feel free to drop by sometime to find out all about it! Sending you Flutifull wishes 😄🎶
@@ClaireHoldich When I said that I liked your pudding, I was referring to Yorkshire pudding...
😂 ace love this! Love this reaction style. My dad loved Canned Heat; On the road again is his favourite but I remember this one! X
Thanks, glad it brought back some memories! 😄🙏
In the 60's there were two tv programs that featured 60;s music - Hullabaloo and Shindig - where the music was entirely recorded. There are other video recordings from these programs where the musicians clown around.
As youngsters we didn't mind as these programs were the few opportunities to visually see these bands.
On Sundays there was the Ed Sullivan show but the bands played live - Beatles, Rolling Stones, The Doors, etc.
That’s really useful to know for a semi youngster like me! Thanks, and thanks for watching! 😃🙏
lets be honest back in the 60s nothing was live best way to tell if its live or if its Memorex watch the bands drummers (any drummer not just this one) the cymbals never move as well look on the stage floor if there is no amp or microphone cables it is not live. You have to remember this was the 50s thru 70s and a lot of the groups traveled in buses with maybe 3 other groups there was no room for the equipment come to think of it I lost a guitar that way no I think I tossed it out the window on I-75 freeway come to think of it i did throw it out...anyone seeing a guitar on I-75 pick it up and give it a kiss then put it back down it did its done job. Nice little video young lady thank you and peace out!
Love that! I only wish I'd been alive during that era - I always say though if I had I'd never want to listen to anything past the end of the 70s! Thanks for watching 😀🙏
The TRACKING is off. The sound and and video are mismatched . This happened occasionally back in the 1960’s
My mom worked at a TV station. This is a Copy of the original.
Back then, the video and Audio were separate and spliced together. You can see this in old movies some times, especially non-digitized, 1930’s-1950’s .
📻🙂
You might want to check out Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull.
I'm a big Jethro Tull fan already, I've a video on my recent experience of seeing them live in Rome, plus some covers of Tull songs on my channel if you'd like to check them out. Thanks for watching 😀🙏
Canned Heat was one of my dad's favorite bands. And it appears to me that this is a case of a band being forced to mime to a prerecorded track. Nirvana did a tv performance where they were forced to perform to a backing track but had live vocals, so they made it very clear that they weren't playing and purposely ruined the vocals by singing in an odd voice and changing the lyrics. I'm thinking that Canned Heat was doing the same kinda thing here. link to the Nirvana vid -----> ruclips.net/video/_8m6xy9bSFc/видео.html
Thanks for sharing Chris, I think you're right there!
I like the idea that you were honest and said you actually heard it and didn’t all surprised.. most of all these groups were never live. The guy that was singing was the one that played the flute. You can see him in an other video playing it. I know that Jesus Christ gave them all a chance to get saved, I just don’t know which ones did. Is there anyone out there that would like to come back to Jesus? If so do it now., were not promised later. Not only that, we’re not promised later.
I think Alan or a hired gun played on this Track ,Bob usually didn't play any instruments just vocals! & Tamborine! Do "Jethro Tull" for Flute magic in Rock!
Elaine on Seinfeld .. "Fake☝️, Fake👈, Fake 👉" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Quite, Wilbur, Quite! 😂😂
As you found out it isn't original. Henry Thomas version Bull Doze Blues used an instrument called Quills which is similar to a Pan Pipes.
Hi Don, I didn’t know about that version , or the instrument, so that’s great and I’ll definitely check it out. Thanks for sharing, and watching 😃👍
@@ClaireHoldich Here is a link on how to play the Quills: ruclips.net/user/results?search_query=playing+quills
Yeah, TV hates anything live. Last time I was on TV (some 20 years ago?) we refused to pretend over a studio track, so they had us play live (twice) before the start of the program, then they played back the recorded video to the TV audience while we somehow entertained the people in the studio.
One time we were forced to do a playback so we did something similar to Canned Heat here. The singer "sang" into a lint roller; I "played" a stuffed tucano :D pretending it was a trumpet. No wonder they didn't want us on TV very often.
I love that story, great entertainment indeed! Thanks for sharing, and watching! 😄🙏
Yes he plays the flute
🤣🤣🤣 Well I was quite familiar with the song. Weird what's going on there! The wiki list of band members, which is quite extensive, shows no flute player until after 2000. The session musician Jim Horn is credited with the flute part on the studio recording of this song. Hard to review flute playing when they're not playing 😂😂
That's usual info David, thanks. And yes, but it make for quite an amusing reaction! 🤣
A fantastic time to be alive
If you're talking about then, then I can only wish that I could confirm that! Thanks for watching! 😀🙏
Then and now
They played this at Woodstock 1969
They(Bob) are giving the 🖕to the slime.
Bob was mad because it was miming!
Here's the original from 1928...

That's fantastic, thank you! And thanks for watching 😄🙏
Seems to me they were mocjing the fact they had to mime, they did this song live many many times, 60s trolling maybe
nice discoreving your channel. best of luck
this guy?
The audio timing is awful, I don't remember when lipsyncing started or ended but for a while all TV broadcasts of bands/singers were lip-synced, but weren't as bad as this.
For some reason the timing appears to be out on my video but it wasn't like that when I was watching, or on the original video which you can check out here: ruclips.net/video/nBhpiUFSYWI/видео.html Could me my error as I'm new to doing these reactions. Thanks for watching 😄🙏
@@ClaireHoldich I wasn't accusing you, I was just reacting to the timing on the Canned Heat video, keep up the good work...
@@EagleMacCassady of course, no worries, and thanks!
Stolen tune
It would appear so, yes!
