Nick and Lex, thanks for playing my song selections! I was pretty sure you both would like Father of Day, Father of Night. I wasn't too sure about Hibernation. I have to agree it is a bit repetitive, but I suspect it was put on the album to showcase Ted's guitar playing, which wasn't always done on The Amboy Dukes early albums. By the time of Tooth, Fang, and Claw, Ted was becoming the standout member of the band, I guess, and Hibernation was probably included on the album because of this. I'm not sure if I'm historically accurate on this, just my speculation. As for Manfred Mann's Earth Band, I think there's a ton of stuff they did that you would like. Another of my favorites is Give Me the Good Earth, from The Good Earth album. I could add quite a few more songs to the list.
An interesting side note (at least for me) about Tooth, Fang and Claw: I originally bought the vinyl album in the 70's, and later in the 80's, I began to try to get the CDs for much of my old collection (hundreds of vinyl albums), because vinyl doesn't last forever. Tooth, Fang and Claw was released on CD in 1989, and quickly was out of print. I tried for about 13 years to find it, with no luck. Then around 2002, I saw it being sold on eBay. I bid on it, and got into a bidding war with another guy over the next several days. We ran the price up to about $150, and I thought I had won, but literally 2 seconds before the bidding time ended, the other guy placed a higher bid and got it. Lucky for me, another copy showed up on eBay several months later, and I got it for $15! And if you look for it today, it's still going for around $75-$100 on eBay or Amazon, so I guess it's still extremely rare.
About Manfred Mann’s, the title track Solar Fire is a must to hear 🤘🏻👍🤩.
Father of Night, they still perform it live, now with even more energy than in the early 70s.
And Manfred is 80+
Amazing
Hi Guys, Love Manfred Manns Earthband. Great music. Nick you did a Amboy Dukes track not too long back "Journey to the Center of the Mind" It was a song I had heard in my youth and not heard since for many years. I have not heard this before....an instrumental this time ...reminds me of Lynyrd Skynyrd in parts......Will Nick say it after I've typed ? Lol "Southern" ? Close enough ! .... 9 minutes is too long with the repetitions I agree....However this group is from the 1960's and this is from 1974 when their name changed, putting Ted Nugent's name before the band name. The other track Nick did was from 1964.........& Nick just found it !! Lol Byeee Jim X
Manfred Mann may not have been the greatest songwriter but he was one of the best arrangers. If you listen to the Bob Dylan or Bruce Springsteen covers, they are completely different songs than the originals and IMO better than the originals. By the way "Father of Day, Father of Night" was a popular tight dance number in the 70's here in Germany's rock discos.
If Carlos Santana was guitarist.... it would be beautiful!
Hallo Manfred, wie hiess denn dein "Lieblings-Schuppen", wie man solche "Läden" auch nannte ? 😆 Hast du meine Beschreibungen der "Elfen" , die bei manchen Songs über die Tanzfläche schwebten, gelesen ? Ich glaube, ich schrieb es u.a. bei Alex Harvey's Faith Healer. Ich habe noch einige ausgefallene Songs aus dieser Zeit auf meiner Liste 🤘 Erinnerst du dich an Songs, die du in irgendeiner Rock Disco zum ersten Mal gehört hast ? bei mir sind's einige z.B. letztens im REO marathon, da war der Song Golden Country, von dem es auf dem live Album eine geile Version gab ... kennst du die ?🤘
@@rudolfbecker4313 Hey Rudi, hier in Hannover waren das "Fort Sound" und die "Röhre" die Rock-Discos.
REO habe ich fast alles und kenn den Titel natürlich.
Erstes mal in der Disco hörte ich Gypsy von Uriah Heep und z.B. Gamma Ray von Birth Control.. Apropos Uriah Heep. letzten Freitag ist das neue Album "Chaos & Color" erschienen. Was für ein Kracher und das nach 53 Jahren. Echte Hör- und Kaufempfehlung neben der neuen Riverside-ID.entity. Es gibt viel zu hören!!🤘Schönes Wochenende
@@theheepster Hallo Manfred, Riverside war ja, wie gesagt, diese Woche im Briefkasten, 3 Umläufe sind durch, gefällt mir gut, besser als die letzte. Habe Riverside erst einmal gesehen, 2007 als Vorband zu Dream Theater in Bonn. Uriah Heep ist echt krass, nach all der Zeit, waren ja auch in der eclipsed Cd des Monats, muss ich echt mal reinhören ... meine letzte CD war Sweet Freedom 😂 mich hat halt dieses Free me voll abgenervt und ich habe sie aus den Augen verloren. (nachdem ich sie 77 live sah).
Wenn du Gypsy das erste mal in der "Disse" gehört hast ... bist du doch etwas älter als ich ? Ich hörte den Song 1971 in der Hitparade International von SWF 3. Und Birth Control habe ich 1975 die Live LP gekauft und sie 2 Jahre später in Koblenz live gesehen, mein allererstes Konzert.
Ich habe Anfang der 80er 2 Musical box special Cassetten aufgenommen, mit all der Musik, die ich gut fand, aber kein Geld für die Alben hatte. Würde mich mal interessieren, welche der Songs du woher kennst - kein Zeitdruck - schreib einfach, wenn es passt ... sind ja ein paar mehr Songs 😆
Vangelis - Pulstar
Raul de Souza - Sweet Lucy
Jon Lord - Bourree
Streetmark - Lovers
Eela Craig - A Spaceman came travelling
Gong - Ard Na Greine
Straight Shooter - My Time, Your Time
Genesis - Dance on a volcano / Los Endos von der Seconds out
und natürlich REO und Alex Harvey .... das sind jetzt die, an die ich mich erinnere, ich muss mal im Keller meine Cassetten anschauen 😛🤘🤘
Schönes Wochenende auch für dich ... meine Laune ist eben nochmal gestiegen, als ich das Ergebnis meiner Gladbacher sah 👍
@@rudolfbecker4313 Vangelis - Pulstar
Raul de Souza - Sweet Lucy. Die beiden kenn ich gar nicht. Alle anderen habe ich selbst auf Platte bis auf Gong, weil die überhaupt nicht meins sind.
Glückwunsch zum Sieg, mein LieblingsEx-Hannover 96-Spieler hat ja auch wieder ein Tor gemacht: Lars Stindl. Da müßt ihr uns auf ewig dankbar sein, das ihr den damals bekommen habt😉😂
The choir on Manfred Mann’s Earth Band is done with the Mellotron. The keyboard solo on a Minimoog and Mick used a Gibson Les Paul.
He's deffo up their with Wakeman, Lord, Banks and Wright at the keyboarders top table imho.
@@earlgrey691 I agree I think Manfred Mann gets overlooked because the masses hear his name and think Doo Wah Diddy and The Mighty Quinn.
I have to disagree about the choir. It is definitely NOT mellotron.
The choir is real and is credited on the album sleeve.

All great songs by this band. One of my big regrets from the 70's is I decided not to go see them live a couple of times when I had the opportunity.
I kinda wish they'd review each MMEB album from "Messin' " up to "Chance" in total. Considering the length of their usual reviews, maybe one LP side per review. Thank goodness for Wikipedia where you can nowadays find out where the split between the A side and the B side was, even if you don't have the physical LP.
MESSIN' !!!
Lex's "Woooo!" scared Marley -- he scampered out of the room!
Nick, I'm glad you finally realized that you just did the Amboy Dukes. I love that early Ted Nugent stuff, solo & with the Dukes, which was pretty much is band to.
Now I like that version, but Lex was right about hearing it & seeing Ted perform it live, it's amazing. And Ted always brought so much energy to his music. Ted & the Amboy Dukes are from Detroit. Also on that same album is a song called Great White Buffalo. If you ever get a request for that or check it out yourselves, listen to the live version from Double Live Gonzo. That's the version that hit for him. So much more energy & Ted's singing is much better on the live
Never heard the song by Manfred Mann before, that was pretty cool. I seen them once as the second act between the headliner Uriah Heep & the opening act was Rush. It was their first American show ever with Neil Peart on the drums. That was the first time I seen Rush & went everytime they came to town.
Hi David, isn't it great to discover such an epic song, even though we know 1000s of songs. I like to be Sherlock "Rudi" Holmes and found on set list fm (if written other, youtube deletes the comment) that Rush played in August of 74 Pittsburg, Cleveland and the Minnesota states fair. On another side I found the information that they toured with Manfred Mann and Uriah Heep. The sequence of the line up is a bit strange from nowadays view, isn't it ? Do you have any specific memories ? My memory of Ted Nugent (I had written in another comment before and can't find it anymore) is at a festival in 77, when during the first song, the guitar of Derek St Holmes went out of order and Ted jumped up on the drummers podest and soloed for a couple of minutes, until the guitar was fixed ... great memory 🤘 greetings from Germany Rudi .... who's still going to loud concerts like the one tomorrow with my son, watching bands, that are not older than from 1998 with first releases in the mid 2000s. You like being Sherlock too? one band is from Orange County, CA, one is from Wales and one from Ukraine . Any idea ?
Nice selection from Mannfred Mann -- it's quite a change from "Blinded By The Light" (and it's the same guy who gave us "Do Wa Diddy"!). It's also an entirely different slower style from the quicker piano Gospel song on Dylan's New Morning (1970) album. If there's any song that comes close to it, I'd say it's Wishbone Ash's "Phoenix" from their 1970 album, and the guitar solo is very similar, too (at least for the slow part).
Phoenix is a must hear Wishbone Ash song!
Great reaction to a great song by a great band 👍🏼
More earthband brilliant!!
Earth Hymn from The Good Earth is a great one by MMEB in my humble opinion
Sensational album.
That’s my favorite Manfred Mann’s song and my favorite album by them. Ted Nugent is better live. Also Manfred Mann is awesome live too. Thx 👍💪
MANFRED MANN'S EARTH BAND. EARTH MUSIC AT ITS FINEST. THE FIRST MOST PROGREESIVE BAND I WAS INTRODUCED TO AS A KID. GOOD EARTH AND SOLAR FIRE, MY TWO FAVORITES, ALONG WITH WATCH AND ANGEL STATION, WHICH THEY HAD RELEASED WHEN I SAW THEM LIVE IN NUREMBERG GERMANY. ROAD TO BABYLON IS A GREAT SINGLE YOU SHOULD WATCH, WITH THE MIXED SCREEN OF MODERN BABYLON AND ANCIENT BABYLON FROM THE GRIFFITH SILENT FILM INTOLLERANCE. THANKS FOR SHARING.
I bought Solar Fire in 1978, the same year I saw MMEB Live on the "Watch" tour.
I love the proggy keyboards on the Solar Fire album, ie Hammond,Moog and Mellotron.
Manfred doesn't consider himself a Wakeman or Banks, but more of a jazz pianist who moved into heavy rock and specialising in mini moog.
He certainly has a distinctive style, and as others have said, he's more of an arranger than a composer.
He also has a talent for spotting the right songs, abd surrounds himself with very talented musicians.
Visionary Mountain will take you on the most unexpected journey by Manfred Mann
Yes, the whole Nightingales and Bombers album is captivating!
What's next.. The Who ?
Naah.. some other time.. perhaps
Some favourite songs from Manfred Mann's Earth Band is 1.Messin' 2. Solar Fire 3. Give Me The Good Earth.
Heard just in Messin' in headphones by chance at my library in 1973. I was 13 and after that hooked.
Numerous scratched vinyls later i bought the 16cd box. Still love them 50 years later...
in my opinion one of the best guiter players in rock and what a monster band at 62 I still love this stuff aloha
I like the album Call of the Wild best by Amboy Dukes. Their best song is Pony Express IMO. Then two other great cuts are Rot Gut and Below the belt. Great stuff!
Love Solar Fire AND Tooth, Fang and Claw. But, Great White Buffalo is the one!
Can't Believe no one has ever suggested either "7 & 7 Is" or "Alone Again Or" by Love
so you have the chance to do it 😆
I like the vibe of this album.
Great Reaction in its day the length of the solo on the Amboy dukes tune was more refreshing and a statement against the short sweet top 45 culture. In a current day Re listening it’s a long extended gallop 🏇 into the sunset 🌅
Great song’s great reaction
Ted Nugents playing was also effected alot by the actual guitar he was playing. Its really had NOT to get distortion from a Byrdland on stage or studio so he just embraced it. He probably got more out of a Byrdland than anyone ever. Live he actually has to mark where the most distortion is on the stage so he will remember during live shows. But this example here he is very young and his playing is really taking off which it does and IMO he is one of the top 10 guitarists ever.
“Davy’s on the Road Again “ & “Martha’s Madman” are great more up-tempo rockers of the Earth Band. BTW, I saw the Amboy Dukes back in the day before Nugent went right-wing! They were great and he was all over the stage, riffing away, climbing on amps, and generally running around crazy in a loincloth!, Ah, the good old days!
love
The Amboy Dukes eventually became a showcase for Ted Nugent.
2 Great song from 2 Great Bands. Love the early Ted Nugent.
Mick Rogers on guitar and lead vocal here. He left before their leap to stardom with Blinded By The Light.
Was it Mick with the wonderful raspy style vocalling on 'Blinded by the light'?..love that voice.
@@earlgrey691 Chris Thompson.
@@shyshift Gracias.As soulful as it gets set of pipes he had.
@@earlgrey691 Yeah he’s a great singer but I prefer Mick and it’s probably because I started with him 50 years ago.
But Mick came back and ist still with the Band, thankfully.
Deadly Tedly!!
You really need to look for the live “Musikladen” version of Hibernation. Ted Nugent is an absolute god on guitar whatever you may think of his politics, there aren’t many guitarists who just plug into an amp with no effects, just the volume & tone controls. Hibernation IS a big mouthful for a first time, maybe the other instrumental on the album, “Free Flight” would have been a better intro for Lex.
This is the truth!
This is the song, with which I would have started my MMEB marathon (just seeing Alexia moving in the chair reminded me a bit of the dancing style of the people in my former second home, the rock disco "Musical Box" 😆), but when someone requested Spirits in the night last summer, my marathon was blown up. Father of day father of night is one of those 70s epics, which you can hear all your life long 🤘. Solar Fire and Nightingales and Bombers are my favourites albums before the singer changed, both albums can be heard in total, having around 40 minutes of great music and great variety. And even after Mick Rogers left and Chris Thompson followed, they made great albums starting with Roaring Silence, of which everybody (maybe except you 🤔) knows Blinded by the light ... another album, which does not have 1 bad or boring song ... So maybe the next requester will have some MMEB of the "newer phase". Without reading other comments first, I'm sure, someone wrote, who's the composer ... Manfred Mann always has his trademark, the solos, in almost every song - which makes it easy to recognize.
About Amboy Dukes I'm wondering, when Nick says, he doesn't know them, because they were part of a marathon, which was only released a few days ago ... but maybe they were recorded in different order ... Ted Nugent plays a nice guitar in Hibernation, might be, I hear the studio version for the first time, I'm not quite sure, if my brother had this album. But I know the song of Ted Nugent's Double Live Gonzo and honestly I usually skip it, because the extended live version sounded a bit boring to me after a while, compared to the other full energy songs; I don't say titles, there might be some Ted Nugent, maybe even a marathon, in the future 🤘
Respekt Nick, du kennst Ted Nugent - Stranglehold, hätte ich nicht erwartet ... kennst du das aus einem Film oder Videogame ? Definitiv einer meiner TOP 5 songs vom alten Ted, den ich 1977 und 1980 live gesehen habe 🤘
Drummer Chris Slade went on to join AC/DC for decades.
Just caught up to this reaction. Manfred Mann is a great interpreter of other people's songs, as well as writing great tunes himself. My favourite is 'For You' which was on Springsteen's first album and MMEB give it a whole new proggy rock vibe. Really good. A long way from his first hit single in the 60's '5-4-3-2-1'.
What i would give to see an N&L reaction to Deep Purple's-'Mandrake Root' from the BBC Live in Concert masterpiece ? Cosmic rock on a whole different level.
you can go for it, wait for the next chance to buy a song or marathon .. it's so easy to get YOUR MUSIC here😃
un gran tema de manfred man...father del dia y la noche ...algunas veces mi hijo lo pone en la red para mi cumpleaños o dia del padre .....ES UN HIMNO...¡¡¡¡
Love MMEB. You must do a full album reaction to the album Watch! you will love it.
Drive ByTruckers are a great southern rock band . One of my favorites is Decoration Day .
Manfred Mann's Earthband great as akways! Amboy Fukes reminds me of Lynryd Skynryd.
Gracias.
Got this little single then, when released in 1973 !
Yes the Bob Dylan cover. Before Springsteen it was Bob Dylan on these albums.
Ted Nugent has never really floated my boat, he is a great player but there is too much masturbation and not enough ideas. Manfred Mann's Earth Band on the other hand are one of the handful of bands I keep coming back to, time and again. Maybe not as often a YES, Rush, Pink Floyd or Tom Waits, but Manfred Mann is always worth a listen.
I was thinking that the AD song sounded a lot like their song "Journey to the Center of the Mind", which I believe Nick reviewed recently.
Wrong intro: Music with Nick
52.6k!!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Terrible Ted (Early Ted Nugent)! Before he got too big. Good stuff. You would like Great White Buffalo! They are from Michigan.
Ted!
Still have ' Solar Fire ' on vinyl that's a great version think it's a Dylan song.
Detroit Michigan actually.
Nick I own everything this band released so if you have any questions I will be happy to answer them if I can.
Thank you Rand!! I appreciate that very much!!! We both loved your solo of Close to the Edge on your Moog and your guitar solo dedicated to Jeff!
@@NicknLex Oh my goodness I am surprised you saw those. Thank you. I am self taught on keyboard so there’s a lot I can’t do.
Has anybody mentioned that Manfred Mann is most famous for the tune, " doo wah diddy" ? ... common knowledge. .
Different kettle of fish mithinx.
And Might Quinn maybe. Still quite different of what should be.
Glorified and magnified have some small hints.
Then their best prog era begun. Even when somewhere in africa came out i liked them,thou half or more of the songs were covers.
But the way MMEB did it, many people never knew... great band.
I'll avoid the Nugent realated stuff. Can't stand the guy.
Yup.if it moves...kill it Ted.
many artists, no matter if musicians or actors are a-holes ... but if I love the music, I listen to it ... imagine you would do the same with actors .... I don't have this "problem", since I didn't watch any Hollywood movie since Cast away 😂
I avoid Leftist sc um .
Thanks for letting everyone know 😭😭
Shades of their next album "The Good Earth" in the Manfred Mann song. They have progressed and refined this sound on that next album.
Alexia, I've tried to reach out to you in an attempt to help you heal your back. I'm very concerned that you're still having bad back problems after all these months, so I'm going to offer you some free advice here, on what I think you can do to heal it. I'll try to be as brief as I can:
First, I highly recommend you go see a Chiropractor. It's been over a year since I last saw mine, as I no longer have any back issues. Hopefully, they'll never return. He told me that before I do any stretching that I first need to 'put out the fire', which involved him working on my back, while also using ice packs 2-3 times a day for 20 minute intervals. He told me to stop taking hot baths, because the hot water is what's aggravating my back. Warm baths are fine, but not hot ones. Once my back was starting to feel better, I was to begin light stretching exercises, morning and night. Basically I sit on the floor with my legs stretched out, and gently reach for my toes. Within a week I could stretch fully with no problems.
That's his advice. Now here's mine:
I've mentioned this to you a few times, so I don't know if you've looked into it, but the other thing you should do is practice The Wim Hof Method. Watch the VICE documentary on yt about him.
In a nutshell, here's what you do:
Every morning, on an empty stomach, then as often as you want throughout the day, but at least every morning, take 30 deep breaths, where you breathe in fully and then exhale naturally. Not fully out; fully in, and then let it go. After the 30th exhale, stop breathing. After the exhale, not after the inhale. Now you sit in a meditative state for as long as you can, until you need to breathe. Then you breathe in fully and hold your breath for 15 seconds, and then just let it go. That's 1 round. Do 3 rounds each morning. Afterwards, you should take a cold shower. You can start with warm water, but then you want to make the water as cold as you can for at least 30 seconds. Each day, try to turn the water a little colder and try to see if you can stay in the cold water for 1-2 minutes. Within a week you'll be able to turn the water all the way on cold, and stay in it for around 2 minutes.
Wim also practices Yoga (something I need to do), along with other flexibility exercises that will also strengthen your back, but if you do the breathing and cold showers, not only will your back heal, but your entire mind and body will stay healthy. Wim has never gotten sick in over 40 years. He doesn't even catch a cold, and he's demonstrated over the years that anyone can do what he does. Finally, everything he does is backed by science 100%. You can research this and see for yourself. His breathing app is on yt and has over 60m views. He also walks Russell Brand through it. I often use both videos, though Russell held his breath for 2 minutes. I hold mine for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Wim says he can hold his breath for 5+ minutes. No clue how he does that.
I hope your back fully heals and you never have to deal with this ever again.
Oh yes, 1 last thing, I hope you try reading some of my book, or listening to some of my narration of it on my channel. I think you'll really enjoy some of the characters in the story : )
You guys are wrong about Hibernation!:)
love
