- The Bluebelles singing "You'll Never Walk Alone" back in 1964 at the Brooklyn Fox, Brooklyn NY.
Lyrics:
When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
For your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never ever walk alone
Walk on, walk on
I saw them do this song in, I think, 1965 in Chicago when they were opening for the Rolling Stones. Patti would have been 17. This was one of the experiences that made me fall in love with R&B music.
Patti LaBelle & The BlueBelles (also known as LaBelle) should be in the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME !!!
+williamg2552 they absolutely should be.
I'm late lol....but should be
Agreed
Absolutely agree!!
Yes, and so should The Marvelettes and even En Vogue. Because they weren't as well known as The Supremes amongst others it may not happen but they need Black Folks on that Panel. Each year they don't choose Chic or even Chaka Khan which is so cruel. I had no idea this was from a Murray The K Show that I saw on PBS this past weekend.
Background vocals not to be ignored..... yo!!!!😃😃😃
jamila3274 Absolutely!
Big facts all-day Harmony melonies all blend in together Patty was a bad girl my vocals is so strong and I'm background singers that was bad was on point in they all ran in together
And you got a thing in 1964 she was only 20 ain't that crazy how strong her vocals was in the other ladies that sing into you know they all in the same age group they was bad man and then was they real voices they wasn't using them we as people and definitely has a African American race God blessed us with a lot of good time and some gifts but it's sad today most of that stuff is just fading away because of the killing a crime that disappearance of kids the government shutdown It's just sad man but all we can do is pray keep your head up I hope I get better I love music we always have music in our home I have five siblings two brothers and three sisters flower paintings on Wayside music and always have parties every weekend and I'm only going to be 37 and I am the fourth child but that's all man God bless
@@vanzeljoseph7021 I'm really trying to read this comment... No disrespect, but you have someone proofread this and retype this.
I sat 3 feet away from them at a nightclub (Club Venus) in Baltimore in 1968. It was just Patti, Nonah, and Sarah as Cindy had left a few months before to replace Flo in The Supremes. When they started to sing this song, I was riveted to my seat and was transported to another world. I think that, if there had been an earthquake that destroyed the building, I still would have been unable to move.....it was THAT MESMERIZING.The power in Patti's voice remains unchallenged to this day!
W O W really
I wasn’t born
Loved the Club Venus 😊
As a person who has studied voice and continues to do so, I believe a lot people don't know how off the charts their voice technique was and how operatic the voices are naturally. If they sang classically and pop they would have owned the game. Patti Labelle is one of the greatest voices of the last century and who knows how far she could have conquered if she was born a little later.
Her an Arlene Smith of
Chantels. Think she did
Some opera.Both of them
Could have
If she was born later she would have never had the training recieved from bluebells And labelle. She would sound totally different. Probably wouldn't have a career that lasted this long either
I remember many years ago when I was coming out of a very very very very very very dark place in life. A kind kind kind friend took me to go see LaBelle at the old Gibson Amphitheatre.
It was a part of my healing. Especially when Patty laid on the floor and began to sing. We were way up in the nosebleed seats. She put down the kicked off her shoes and laid on the floor and sang that song.
I love when Patti sings that soft, sweet note and just lays it on top of all the other singers and instruments.....
If Patti & Aretha having a sing off in 1963 who would be the last standing on the stage?.
@@eumelaniniam3781 Both are amazing.....just different. I'm glad we don't have to pick one....we can love them both.
@@eumelaniniam3781 well I've seen more aretha footage for that period so I would say Aretha as a huge Patti fan. However Aretha still couldn't pull this performance off at that time. Aretha was a more developed musician/singer due to all the influences she had around her
Do i see me Cindy B?
@@thebootielover Yes you do! Beautiful Cindy Birdsong is singing her heart out!
I was at this show!!
I bet they voices gave you the chills because you were so close and in person they're me and I have to be a blessing I would have loved the page to grow up back in your day it was so much peace and not too much killing it was a lot of racism though but it wasn't no killing like that but that's a blessing cuz Patti LaBelle she's a bad woman and her Brokers are so strong and you got to think that was 1964 they were only 20 21 years old they were younger as hell
I was too and Man this group got so many ovations remember they won three straight months what memories
@@williamwatt7874 Wow I bet her voice was a beast at 19 Diana had nothing on her... BigFacts💪🏾💯
Wow! What a memory to have!
Be nice!! 😠😂😂
She was ON from day one.
Her majesty at the top of her royal game thank you Empress
If Miss Patti doesn't touch your soul then you don't have one!!
Now you j sound like my granny
This is exactly true!
Damn! They slayed! Patti OMG that last note. Good Googa Mooga!
The Lord made an incredibly special lady in Ms Patti Labelle! God bless her, mind blowing experience!!!
That voice at 21 years old. It's amazing how much it sounds the same today. I just watched a performance from this year. Her voice has aged of course but so well preserved after 50 years.
M H Barnhill 18 or 19
Mara Fever still amazing
Do i see MS Cindy B?
@@thebootielover Yes
The control she has with that "Gift" the Good Lord gave her. Amazing!
Patti is the only singer to never loose her voice not a note or an octive Ms labelle sounds just as good then as she does now. the best girl group ever
Throwback music is what we need when pandemic is still around.
That note at the end- pure opera, amazing voice.
Sarah is killing it on them background vocals. All time best live performance of any girl group. PERIOD! Vocally im speaking on!
Jacovb Tarver agree totally!
She sure is. That top soprano note is so crystal clear and well controlled and she has such composure while doing it. Very impressive. And, of course, Cindy's second soprano and Nona's solid alto are right there in the mix to round out that harmony to a T and back Patti's dynamic vocals with their unique Bluebells's sound.
the finish is literally one of the best ive ever heard, they had a fabulous arranger
You have to believe in a higher power after listening to this performance. God given talent.
Absolutely out of this world😎
Holy Mother of God.............this is so incredible I had to watch it 5 times.........Patti Labelle is the one and only.
yep, Patti owes me a tablet. I threw mine and cracked the screen.
Lmao......I wouldn't come on after THAT LAST NOTE....she had them shook....
+Talonzo Brooks LMAO
+Caj Catt Singing or belting, a High C or C6 was child's play for Patti..lol!
I scream every time I read this and I stay coming back to this video LOLOLOL
I feel you, boy lol
I went to school with Nona from Junior 4 to Trenton High and still friends .... her mom worked with my dad. Nona was in gym with me one day and told me they are going on tour. lol I remember saying but you won't be here for the prom. :) She was lovely still is beautiful and talented.
+diane189444 she is an amazing woman and astonishing as a writer.
Yes she is .... she was beautiful in school very stunning and smart a wonderful woman. Talent beyond words. I adore her.
Mama Patti is just amazing. A great vocalist.
Who's watching this now 2016. Incomparable as always
This is chillllling
At least once a month, I get that Patti L and The Bluebelles and Labelle scratch.
We (fans, new and old) and they (the ones that "hate" or take exception to the way Patti sings but you keep seeing them making up things to say) are watching this as well as other vids in all of Patti's varied career stages. You have to kinda laugh with those that have "issues" with her or the group because they keep coming back to watch more and there is SOOO MUCH to watch on RUclips; spending your time watching someone you feel just screams instead of getting pleasure from enjoying those you do feel have real talent shows the sad state of one's life. While they didn't have the best material or producers, they showed the talent within live. That's how they survived all the years with very few hits.
SimplyMJ
I'm watching in in 2017
Behold the POWER of THE Patti Labelle...from West Philly!!!
Proof that Divas are BORN, not
MADE!!!💯💫💫
Thank you
Never have i heard such beauty in a song. Patty had one of the greatest voices of all time
One of the greatest vocal performances of ALL TIME.
incredible performance. and that last note Patti hit was just out of this world. amazing.
stillwill2215 ..Patti's Eb# or F sounds like a cross between a belt and a wristle .
Patti is easily greater than Aretha & Whitney but never got the props. Don't know why everybody compares her to Diana Ross they have different styles. Patti is big voiced with a touch of Gospel soul more akin to Aretha than Diana. She always been unique. Patti left this group for solo stardom. Groups never last.
This performance gave me so much life I got chills, especially when they hit that soprano note!!!
Did anybody else think that they sounded better on their live performance than they did on their album (especially Patti Labelle)?
She's not even in the mic...smh
Caj Catt Either way, I can still hear her.
me too.
+Al Rector With few exceptions, "Down The Aisle" was one, I never felt that an electronic sound system could contain Pat's voice on a recording. On recordings. Pat's voice always felt confined.........as though it was bouncing back against the walls instead of going out into space. I can remember how the speakers of my portable record player used to rattle whenever I played The Bluebelles back in the 60's. In live performances, especially back in the 60's, Pat's voice would just soar through the air of the hall. I was sitting at a table by the stage in 1968 (about 10 feet away from the group) when they were performing "you'll Never Walk Alone." I am here to tell you that I was riveted to my seat.............I couldn't have moved if a fire had broken out. The power and emotion of that voice is something that I never experienced before or since. You can feel it in this video................in person, multiply it by about 10 and you'll have SOME idea.
+Al Rector When performing live, they didn't always have a producer trying to make them, especially Patti, sound like other late teen or young female singing groups. They had a bit more freedom to do their thing.
I LIVE for the last note!! OMG!!!!!
That's the C#6 Cissy hits in Ain't no way.👊💪👊
Superb harmonies of the Bluebells. They are never given their due. You can't be taught this kind of singing, you are born with it. You just have to mature and nurture it.❤
Patti is unbelievable. What a great voice then and now. My favorite is 'Down the Aisle'
thats angelic singing at its best...its the incomparable Patti like no other.....BEAUTIFULLY sang
That was a fantastic performance!
Honestly
There are many nice versions of the song, but absolutely NONE that comes close to this one
All that emotions Patti and the girls are spreading, simply WOW
Patti! The best!
I agree 1000% !
on that circuit, that stopped off in places like NYC, Philly, Chicago and DC, you had a group of 'black divas' that stopped traffic and put asses in the seats... Gladys Knight, Tina T, Dionne Warwick, Cissy Houston, Aretha Franklin, Linda Jones and Patti LaBelle..and for my money, with all that we know now about the different genres of music that she's dabbled in, THERE IS NO ONE like Patti LaBelle. Those kids at the Apollo, had to be thinking they had just seen a UFO, when she sang ANYTHING.
Patty LaBell was so young! They had some nice hits❤❤❤❤❤
Wow! That gave me life. Patti Labelle gave me chills! Through the highs lows, she owns this song. I watch this video frequently just to remember what real singing and class looks like. This is undoubtedly one of the best live performances of all time! Come on thru Patti and the Bluebelles, come on thru!
Whoever preserved this performance on film should be nominated for sainthood!!
This just brought me to tears, what an incredible performance, one of the best I have ever seen.
Patti has one of the greatest voices EVER, along with Mariah Carey & celine Dion.
NICK EASLEY MC whistle register starts @C6 which is Patti's belting register.
@@nutinman4u With many, it starts a bit lower. There's a noticeable jump in the vocal tone when whistle register singers attempt to go up into what might be out or there range it it wasn't for that extra fold in their vocal cords. Rachelle Farrell, however, can sing into a High D flat or E before hers kicks in. There are also Altos that have whistles as well.
Except Whitney was better than all of them
Patti is way better. Carey & Dion have both lost their voices. Patti is still going strong and she's older than Dion & Carey. I give major respect to artists who keep the vocals intact all through their performance lives. I respect artists who cultivate longevity its a sign of greatness. Patti respected her gift & took care of her instrument. Those other ladies abused their gifts.
Where y'all keep digging up Celine and Mariah from? 🤔😁😂
Heartbreakingly beautiful vocals...pure and soulful xx💗
This is my favorite Patti & The Bluebelles tune. Loved how she belted the high note at the end! But let me say this: the background singers are great too! If you listen to the end as Patti hits the high note, there is someone in the background hitting a high note just below hers! Bravo!
Sarah Dash
Who can dislike this?, those person have know sense of music this performance is the definition of perfection...
Simply amazing and beautiful.
Good God .. Just too damn good.. the restraint but yet you can feel that there was so much more power available in her voice. Remarkable!
YES LORD!!! CHILLS
This is exactly why Patti LaBelle get so many standing ovations you can feel her voice even when she has a mic you can feel the power in it
This woman sang her heart out,like no other I've ever heard.God Bless,always a fan,KarenWallingTrumpore. 65YRS.
Amazing
She was a great singer and still is
Check out Sarah,s high pitch voice, extremely beautiful.RIP.
Thank you Patti and the bluebells for this 1
Just...out...of...this...world! Patti's voice gave me goosebumps! Per usual!
AMAZING 😻
Im in awe... complete state of awe!
"awe: an overwhelming feeling of reverence, admiration, fear, etc., produced by that which is grand, sublime, extremely powerful, or the like:
in awe of God"
True gift of God.
Wow! The beauty. The poise. Those voices. 😮
MY GODDDD!!! 😱😱😱😱 Beautiful. Those vocals! I discovered this clip after watching the Apollo Theater documentary. My jaw just dropped! What a beautiful way to discover Patti LaBelle’s roots! ❤❤❤
Pat, Sarah, Nona, and Cindy certainly had the pipes in their youth..........now, you can understand why no other artists wanted to walk on a stage after they performed! How do you top THAT?
Not even the late Great Queen of Soul wouldn't go on after them.
Sing it, Patti!!!
Smooth as silk!
So beautiful😪what a beautiful song! And lady, amazing voice❤❤❤😘💋🌹😍💐🎀
Patti is extraordinary. Period. Their vocals are so tight its ridiculous! Girl groups today will never match this...and that's sad.
I wasnt born until '76 but i have so many Bluebelles 45s. I love Patti LaBelle
Who else in the world can sing like this?God always blesses us with the best.....which is what happened here
Miss Patti sang that song yes yes yes. I love you Miss Patti❤😢. You'll Never Walk Alone 🎶🎤🎼🎹🎶 7-25-2017
Yes she did Patti a bad girl
If Patti is singing, I'll be listening.
I never understood the Patti love unti Now. . . . . . . Now I know, DAMN😯
Awesome and classic singing Patti Labelle is a gift and The Bluebells.
What a voice Patti has , one of my favourite videos of her. God Bless , Jay Balvin
Best Group Ever!
I watch this at least three times a week. Patti Labelle and the Bluebelles were in my estimation the best vocal group of the 1960's. Even though the Supremes sold more records, they could never match the incredible and complex harmonies of Patti Labelle and the Bluebelles. No wonder a jealous Diana Ross who toured with the Patti and Bluebelles would antagonize Patti by copying the dresses of the Bluebelles. And just to antagonize Patti even further, Diana Ross even stole Cindy (the middle one) from Patti to replace Florence of the Supremes. That's how jealous Diana was of Patti as Diana could never have reached the vocal power of Patti Labelle.
Ok!! Say It Again!! AMEN - The Voice Of Patti Are Strong 💪.
Diana Ross was never jealous of Patti Labelle just stop the dirt throwing. Diana was more famous, more successful and enjoyed status as an international celebrity, fashion icon, actress, producer international beauty & ambassador for Detroit and was a well respected diva. Diana dated & married better men than Patti & the others. Lady Diana was glamor personified. Sadly, Patti & Aretha were jealous jealous of Diana. Get it right. For all of Patti's talent she ALWAYS played 2nd or 3rd to Diana, Dionne & Aretha. Patti NEVER had the GLAMOR & Sex Appeal that Diana exuded so easily. Patti NEVER enjoyed the musical accolades that flowed, so easily to Aretha. Patti never achieved & NEVER attained the crossover success of Dionne & Diana or Aretha. Dionne Warwick was class & elegance but Diana was more successful than all of them. She trailblazed. Idiot I doubt you know anything about that generation. Some of us lived through it.
As a super fan of Aretha who is my favorite singer of all time, I can understand why Aretha refused to follow Patti and the Bluebelles on stage to perform. It has been said by performers who did shows/tours together with the Motown group and other performers that Aretha always insisted that she perform in front of Patti and the Bluebelles. I can see/hear why!
Woow .. what a line up..
Yes! Patti about that Life!
I listen to this and tears flow for it was a time of youth and love that I can never get back, it hurts to my very soul
Best female group ever. Sarah was an awesome singer and Patti still is a beast of a singer and performer.
They always had a ballad in their show where Patti could soar!!
that was so great
i worship!! adore loveee!!! My Patti yet one of them bluebells was right up there with her! yo!
Patti LaBelle and the Bluebelles.....had a number of great songs. My fav was TEAR AFTER TEAR.
18 years old, Get it Ms. Patti🙌🏿
They got it for EVERYBODY...LIFE,Death and the resurrection of a song. They are getting their life on them high notes way high up towards the Soprano C
I thought Ms Patti was already 20 in this performance but I might be wrong
The most awesome Philly Lady
I was there at 13 where i acquired my love of "live" music, I still love it
@J.T. Why you gotta be so brag a douses. Fr, I'm glad you still here to tell us about how you first created a Love for "Live Music".
But, this Performance Tops all performances that my eyes have send.
I've seen Patti as a Solo act many many times from 93' & 94'. But, I would have given all the Concerts I've ever been to just to see this particular one; except NINA SIMONE on June 22, 2000 @the Wiltern Theater. One word Incredible. . I'm glad you shared your memories.
Patti saved the High Note till the End
6 people will always walk alone.
Patti Patti!!!
Beautiful voices...beautiful rendition of thus moving song
Stunning!!!
Sadly we lost Sarah Dash. 21 September 2021...Sarah Dash, the legendary singer best known as the cofounder of the all-female trio Labelle, died Monday at the age of 76. Her death was confirmed by singer and fellow bandmate Patti LaBelle, who posted a statement on social media following news of Dash's death.
"We were just onstage together on Saturday and it was such a powerful and special moment!" Labelle wrote on Twitter and on Instagram, where she shared a video of Dash performing. "Sarah Dash was an awesomely talented, beautiful and loving soul who blessed my life and the lives of so many others in more ways than I can say. And I could always count on her to have my back! That's who Sarah was ... a loyal friend and a voice for those who didn't have one."
"Rest in power my dear sister," LaBelle concluded. "I love you always!"
Bandmate Nona Hendryx, who rounded out the singing group with Dash and LaBelle, also posted a tribute on Instagram and shared that she'd spoken to her friend only days before she died.
Sarah Dash was the cofounder of the all female quartette, Patti Labelle and the Bluebelles a vocal group which, many years later, evolved into the trio Labelle with 3 original members minus Cindy Birdsong. I know that now days, many people like to refer to vocal groups as bands. When the term band is used, someone who is not familiar with the group may think they play instruments and/ or sing. As you can see in the video, this was a vocal group. It’s not that “band” is the wrong term term to use as it can technically mean vocal group or a group that plays instruments or or does other. I like to distinguish between both. Old man with old habits.
@@drummerc1795 Probably a lot older than you. (2 years younger than Patti) ;-) "Bandmate" is how the writer of the information wrote it....and "voice" was their instrument.....but I actually agree with you.
@@USNAVDC and certainly no disrespect was meant to you. It’s just one of my old man hang ups that I can’t get used to and I I always wonder if those groups feel the same way about being called bands. Thank you for you’re reply. I needed to be reminded that a singers voice is in fact considered an instrument. Stay well fellow senior.
Besides being historical, and beautiful, this is just perfect ! No other live performance even comes close ! Not even any others by Patti and the girls can top this one ! Patti - The Real Queen Of Soul !!!
I like the way she sings this normally, smoothly as the song is to be. Her intonation.on this song is incredible! Boney James would really blow this song out of the water
This is a treat, especially seeing Cindy in the group. Priceless.
I was there for every Murray the K show and everytime they performed they got a standing ovation. Imagine every major motown act; Dionne Warwick;Little Anthony; Jay and the Americans; British Invasion acts gathered in one show for $4 and a free album.
I was at almost all of his shows as well. If I remember correctly, there were numerous shows everyday and they had to show a movie before each show to give the acts a chance to rest. It was amazing to see so many top acts in one show for that price but I guess that wasn’t as big a deal as it sounds now days. Bet most of those acts did not want to have to go on after P. Labelle and the Bluebelles.
I mean wooooooooooow what a great performance !!!! Thnx for sharing this great post!!!
No tiene subtitulos en español asi que se los dejo en los comentarios para el que los necesite
Cuando caminas
A través de una tormenta
Sostén la cabeza, arriba
Y no tengas miedo, de la oscuridad
Al final de la tormenta
Hay un cielo dorado
Y la dulce canción de plata
De la alondra
Camina, a través del viento
Camina, a través de la lluvia
Aunque tus sueños sean arrojados
Y soplado
Camina, camina
Con esperanza, en tu corazón
Y nunca caminarás solo
Nunca caminarás solo
Solo
Camina, camina
Con esperanza en vuestros corazones
Nunca caminarás, solo
Tremendous control to hold back that thunderous voice 👏 👌 🙌 👍
this is really gorgeous...and it floors me! so nice and so rare to see the 4th legendary diva Ms Cindy Birdwhistle...love em all entirely.
Actually Sarah Dash sung the highest harmony part in the trio. Cindy sung the middle and Nona sung the low.
she be real good! xo
+Keith Beard but when patti hit that last note she didn't need no help from anyone.
twu very twu...xo
She really didn't. She was not playing.
