Recorded in 1972. 51 years ago. How time flys. Have to listen to Shambala.
Louis Charles B.W. Stevenson (the B.W. stood for Buckwheat). Great song. When it came out the radio stations kids listened to didn't much care what "genre" a song fit in. If it was catchy, they played it. I read that this is now considered "progressive country" or "country rock". You reacted to McArthur Park, and they played that on the same station where we heard the Beatles and the Beach Boys and Roy Orbison, along with B.W. Stevenson. Thanks for another great reaction to a great song!
What you said is true ! The radio station that I listened to as a kid when I was eating breakfast played all kinds of music 🎵🎶 The Beatles then this song, My Maria then maybe the Four Seasons. We loved all kinds of genres! ❤❤
While attending Lamar U, my brother and myself saw him at "Mama's Worry." RIP Peace Buckwheat.
Shambala is a place. The halls of Shambala.
Elton John Can You Feel The Love Tonight At MSG 2000 please
Have you guys done a reaction to Marshall Tucker bands " heard it in a love song" ?
❤ Louisiana Man. Johnny Rivers 😊
I like this song, but I believe Brooks and Dunn's version is better.
Brooks and Dunns remake was good but this original was just better. BW’s voice is just bigger and more full. The drummer also did an excellent job driving the song. Great reaction you two.
Great drumming by Jim Gordon great session drummer who also a member of Derek and The Dominos.
Most people may not know this but the drummer on this track is the late Jim Gordon, (Cream, Eric Clapton, "Layla", Joe Cocker, etc)
Jim Gordon was a great session drummer in the 60's and 70's, played on nearly every hit song, just amazing drummer. However, his life spiraled out of control due to mental illness, and he murdered his mother and spent the rest of his life in a prison medical ward. Gordon was also the drummer in the band Derek and the Dominos.
@@waynekaminski5438thanks for that info how tragic
Jimmy was one of the greats. Session drumming legends Jeff Porcaro and Jim Keltner both said that Jim was the greatest drummer they ever knew. Such a tragic life. RIP Jimmy.
@@jonathanoverholts2036 And RIP to his poor innocent mother! Beat her with a hammer and then stabbed her ti death with a butcher knife. I can only imagine the poor woman's pain and horror in that moment.
I want to hear Asia sing this! She can hit that high note!
Agreed! She's awesome. 😎
BW Stevenson was one of the most beloved country singers of my lifetime. His version of My Maria was inspired by the Heavens. Everyone else's version is just a homage, and they all know it.
I agree. This is the best by far.
If I have any criticism at all of this song, it's too short!
Nice song. His only hit.
Guitar by the great Larry Carlton, who collaborated with everyone from Dolly Parton and Andy Williams, to Joni Mitchell and Linda Ronstadt.
He's also known for the guitar solo in Steely Dan's "Kid Charlemagne"
Brooks and Dunn redid this song. Great song.
Yes! Even better than the original. 👍
Austin Brown & Tim Foust sing "My Maria" as well.
BW’s version is the best . B and D version is good but not the best
BW rules
@@petestaint8312 Not really. They did nothing to the arrangement.
It's just a slip into your falsetto Asia, I've heard your voice and you can do it easily with just a little practice. You got this chick...
Shambala was another great song he performed ❤️❤️ BW did a great job 👏👏 give it a listen 😉✌️
The song "Shambala" was sung by BW Stevenson but the band Three Dog Night made it into a big hit. There is part of the Melody that is similar to "My Maria." If you haven't reacted to 3 Dog Night's "Shambala" you must!
Great song, Brooks and Dunn covered it and did a great job on it
That's what most people know is that version
They didn't do anything different on it.
BW Stevenson was originally from Oak Cliff in Dallas.
Like so many singers, he died young. But, he wrote several songs that were covered by others over the years. I remember when this song came out is was a huge hit! So glad you two reacted to this incredible song!
One of my FAVORITE tracks from the 70s. Nice fusion of country and soft rock. Hits it out of the park………..
I've always loved this song. The only problem for me is that it's too darn short. I always wish it would go on for a few more verses.
It’s an awesome song whatever genre it’s considered.
bw stevenson died way to young.......
Stevenson died following heart valve surgery after developing a staph infection at the age of 38.
B W Stevenson was a native of Dallas, Texas where you guys are Asia and BJ.
B.W. was from Dallas Texas.....Oak Cliff I believe.
Stevenson was from Dallas and is buried in Laurel Land Cemetery in Dallas, as is Stevie Ray Vaughn
Graduated highschool when this song was a hit. BW Stevenson also recorded Shambala which Three Dog Night put out first.
And Please Come To Boston… one of my favorites. So poignant…
@@melodymcdonald2140 that was Dave Loggins
@@flerbus yes, it was Dave Loggins who wrote and also recorded the song, but
B. W. Stevenson actually released his version of the song about a month or so before Dave did. The Stevenson version was very popular…
Daniel Moore who also co-wrote My Maria.Shambala was released by BW Stevenson a few months before Three Dog Night
My high school music teacher ('74-'75) had gone to high school with BW, and in mixed chorus we sang much of his catalog, including Shambala. I sang this song competitively, and took it to state placing 3rd at the state competition. The Brooks & Dunn version changed very little of BW's arrangement due to how perfect this arrangement is. RIP BW...gone too soon.
Love this! Takes me back to growing up in the 70’s 😁 This song was a hit in the early 70’s. We listened to everything! The radio top 40 for a given week would have Doobie Brothers next to Glen Campbell next to John Lenon next to Al Green next to Aerosmith next to Diana Ross next to......BW Stevenson!! 😁
Yes! ❤
Great song! I remember this original of "My Maria" by B. W. Stevenson in 1973. I was not familiar with the Brooks & Dunn version which was done later. Austin Brown & Tim Foust (from Home Free) also did a great cover of this song recently.
RB Grieves put out a song called …. Take a letter Maria. Came out around the same time. Even better
Thought this was Jose Feliciano when it came out.
Love it
I only knew Brooks and Dunn remake apparently but it was my fave ever of theirs. Never realized it was a remake Wow this version is great I loved it 🥰
BW Stevenson died young.
You guys will like the brooks and dunn version
Hey guys, would love for you to react to a great 70's smooth soft rock song and its called Suavecito by Malo... the clearest one to hear is with the Aztec warrior holding a woman in his arms... it's smooth and romantic and yes it's in English, great hit...
Roy Rogers the King of the Cowboys was one of the best yodelers ever!
Lost classic
Ricola 🤣
There's a current version of this song playing on the FM alternative stations..Funny thing is, it sounds just like BW's version. I've always liked it because I had a hot Latina girlfreind named Maria once, but I couldn't get her to live here with me in the states and I was In Mexico on a 90 guest pass...(sigh) The best 3 months I've ever had.
1972.......Corpus Christi, Texas. I was 18. Got to hear this song, DECADES before Brooks and Dunn made a killin' off it...haha. He was good
Hey Asia and BJ, Brooks and Dunn did a really amazing cover of this song. You should check it out ❤️
70's music was the BEST. 🙂. The 70's was when American music was perfected. 😎
Brooks and Dunn did a cover of this and its GREAT as well!❤❤
Listen to the original by Brooks and Dunn. Their liver performance, notably by Ronnie Dunn on the lead vocal, is phenomenal.
Love this Song and I don’t really listen to Country.
Lucky 7th me.... the 70's definitely had some great music...which I didn't realize at the time....I was 10 in 70'
Brooks and Dunn remake can't hold a candle to the Original here by B.W. Stevenson
It is Sham ba la, not Sham bala. I think Asia would be perfect singing "My Maria"!
Listen to August Evening Lady! BW was one of my favorites.
Great lead vocal by Stevenson. Great range & tone of voice from low to high.
Dug this very good song back then, still do. Don't remember any other songs by him maybe a one hit wonder. That's fine with me, many very good one hit wonders 60 & 70s.
Brooks and Dunn does a great cover of this and it's longer. R Dunn voice is great....
I wish i knew you 2 in person i love your being so real and hounest God bless you both
I would love to see you both react to Firefall "Cinderella".
Nothing beats the original, but I think that Brooks and Dunn hit the higher notes. Are you referring to three dog night.
BW also did a good version of Shambala...
Shamballah was also done by three dog night
Could yall do one on dobie grey called drift away?!
Johnny cash and ray charles crazy old soldiers 💥🔥
7 Spanish angels willie and ray charles 💯 🙌
Shambala? Shaam baa la.
LOVE BJ's hat! Go Sox!
Voice and wow that drummer
Those high notes are B.W.
This deserves 💯 points out of 10‼
Music connects us all
Try lucky touch by him
❤
Wait till you look this dude up 😮
songs so good i could cry
OMG, you really need to know the 70's to know how funny this is! She's talking about yodeling (70's code for oral, yodeling in the canyon). And listening to it in the shower, etc. She can't even get the grin off of her face! God bless them both. Good song
My dad has this song on a record he played it a lot
❤ I absolutely LOVE this song & Stevenson's voice. 😀
Yes, a manly voice with great range
What a beautiful song!! The voices and harmony were incredible.
So. Will be singing along on the chorus... Well! Thank you! Just a little C&W in it. Guess one would have to train. Hey, there's a live version of The Band song "Up On Cripple Creek", where Levon Helm sings something like " I sure wish could yodel like a ..". Worth checking out. Lyrics are fine in this tune as well. Lol! Rico- wha?. Thanks.
Great song, always move me to a BIG SMILE .... Thank You Both, Let Muise Play On. 🙂
Just like other reaction videos to this song…..as soon as the vocals start…..you get it!
Another great song choice. A good soulful, cross-over country/rock tune that sounded great coming out of an AM radio in the '70's.
Sing along with a song with yodeling in it sometime, it's actually quite easy as the human voice throws those rapid changes in pitch in our speech all the time without even thinking about it. 😁
Did you two stop going Live?
Hey Kevin no we haven't! We have been on a bit of a break!
@@AsiaandBJ Oh! Thank you so much! I was worried :) Everyone needs a break! I've been busy also with the summer travel season! I hope to see both of you soon! xoxoxo
Love the reaction! This is my generations music❤
Weird people are reacting to this version over BND. But also cool I guess. Love the Brooks and Dunn version though.
Another great 70's one hit wonder!!
Yes, Shamba,,, is a great song 🎶
I play this song a lot for my wife Mary.
As others have mentioned Brooks and Dunn did a great cover (better in my opinion) of this song. I believe theirs is longer also.
Love the work you too are doing! Thx
Buck Wheat!
