About thirty years ago, I was a volunteer for the city of Woodinville for their 4th of July and Christmas celebrations. At the end of the year, the Parks and Recreation Department held a party for all of the volunteers. The head of the Parks and Recreation Department went to high school with Roger Fisher, the guitarist for Heart, and he invited him to come perform at our party. He showed up and played an acoustic set of Heart songs and old rock and roll. Afterwards, he went around to every table and took the time to talk to us. He seemed genuinely interested in what events we had worked on. A down to earth person.
This is when Music was great. Talented musicians writing and singing their own music. Today’s music sucks.
Truly awesome performance. Heart as one of the best rock bands of the 70s!!! Thank you, Midnight Special Archives!!!
Gather ‘round young whippersnappers…this is how we used to break bands nationally in the U.S. back in 1977. We didn’t have no Google machines or BookChat or InstaFace or any of that…if you wanted your band to have a national profile you got on Midnight Special. Heart is absolutely going for it here, recognizing the significance of the moment and just burning down the stage.
And here in 2024, after nearly 50 years, this is still the level you get from them. Like all great bands Heart knows it’s about the music and the fans and bringing a workwoman approach each and every night because this might be a fan’s only time seeing them and they don’t want anyone leaving disappointed. Thank you, Heart and we will always love you!
Right on!
"We didn’t have no Google machines or BookChat or InstaFace or any of that" That is funny as shit! Well played. Don't forget about Don Kirshner's Rock Concert.
@@bigelile07 Thank you...and yes, Kirschner's Rock Concert was respectfully, the minor leagues. You did Kirschner and then if you "passed" you got to do Midnight Special.
@@1969EType I don't think so. Go look at the artists that were on each show. There were artists/bands that were on DKRC that were never on TMS that were huge. Just from a quick glimpse. Pat Benatar, Bad Company, Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Black Sabbath, Blue Öyster Cult, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Rush...the list goes on and on.
Fantastic 👍🏼 makes me wish I could time travel and watch them in concert during their early days ☺️
Ann Wilson was and is the prettiest woman and most talented singer in Rock 'n' Roll. She is my girl crush ♥
That's back when Ann Wilson was the best looking and sexiest rock and roll female singer on the planet. But even today she's still one of the best sounding female vocalist. And Nancy is still one of the best female guitarist. Just an amazing group of musicians
Live! No lip-sink. No pitch correction. No auto-tune. It's sad what music has devolved into.
when's the last time you went to a show? 1972?
And there it is, the obligatory “back in my day there was no autotune” comment, with bonus unnecessary hyphenation no less! Congrats to those who had both those squares on your boomer bingo card. 🙃
And it’s “lip sync”. A lip sink is where you remove makeup I suppose? 😆
I love the clothes. It doesn't get any better than Heart in their prime. 💖🔥
I've said it before. I'll say it again. I can watch them forever 💕
Impresionante Heart.
The talent on that stage is mind-blowing. A moment in time when everything falls in place just perfectly and a rock staple is born.
Yep, the original Heart band, but the real talent on that stage was Roger Fisher, the lead guitarist, he's the one who came up with all those famous riffs on Barracuda, Crazy On You, Magic Man etc.. Notice how back then Nancy was just an acoustic strummer. When Roger broke up with Nancy and quit the band in 1979 they were never the same again, but those early albums and songs with him kept their legacy alive until this day. In recent years Nancy plays electric guitar and likes to mimic what Roger played but does it poorly compared to him, i've also seen interviews where she does revisionist history and talks about creating those riffs herself, which of course she didn't.
@@greatunz67 the band did not need nancy. i love heart. i used to love the wilson sisters but as it turns out, they are hateful people.
Heart brought it on this performance. Epic!
Roger and Howard great guitar team not many of them in the 70s.
It's hard to imagine this happening now.…😢
YEAH!
Plush kills this tune🤘
1977 was just 13 , can remember midnights on Saturdays was fun and exciting waiting for the Midnight Special to see who was performing and my first live view of these talented ladies and had just gotten their first to cassettes that year and fell in Love with Heart was blessed to see them Live at Mud Island Music Festival in Memphis in 1988, Get Well soon Ann all our thoughts and prayers are with you and your recovery
Early Heart was so badass. They had to be with all the male competition.
I agree! Well said.
Hell Yeah, Pure heaven. ROCK 'N' ROLL!
Heart what a awesome band with the sisters!!!
Heart rips. one of the goats of all time.
This is one of my and my neighbors favorite song. Don’t get any better than this! Way to go Ann and Nancy and band! HEART!!!
The one and only Ann Wilson. I always forget how absolutely beautiful she was. Model beautiful.
Still is
That song never gets old!
Nancy = queen goddess
Iconic iconic iconic
Awesome awesome awesome
I was 14 and just got into skateboarding and KISS was my favorite band. Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy then Van Halen a year or 2 later. Heart was definitely on the 8 track cruising around town with my buddies too.
They nailed that performance.
I was only seven years old when this came out but Barracuda has always been one of my favorite songs and Ann Wilson has always been one of my favorite female vocalists.
Awesome live footage! Great to see them in their prime, even though they are still rocking in 2024 (once Ann recovers). Have seen them several times live and will again when they tour in Canada. Would love to see the other 2 songs from this episode- "Check It Out" and "Keep Your Love Alive". M.S. is the best channel on RUclips!
Rock perfection. 🎸
So freaking awesome!!! ❤
I saw them live in Frankfurt Germany about the same time. Heart was the warmup for Nazaret but it wasn't publicly advertised. The audience didn't want to let Heart off of the stage and Nazareth was a bit of a let down. True story.
When this came out, I was 16, and the one thing that i wanted more than anything in the world? A date with Ann Wilson. Magnificent. My first Heart show was the Dog & Butterfly tour. An all time favorite concert.
Dog & Butterfly is my favorite Heart record.
Such a great band, they knew what they wanted to be and were.
Best female rock singer. Period.
Deborah Harry
💯👊❤️
She and Joan jett
one of the best, she's not the only one
@joebagodonuts8119 - Look for the band Fanny live performances & then come back & say the same. Many amazing female singers who got thrown by the wayside because of misogyny. E.g., look up what this song is really about & what was done to the Wilson sisters.
Excellent performance! Really electrifying! ⚡️💜😎
Great time to be young,how can you not take your eyes off these girls...grand slam hits...yes it was good
This was so cool. A great song, by a great band. I saw Heart 5 times live. Cheers! ✌🏻❤
Wow!... Anne. Wow! Teenage me was a huge heart Fan in the late 70s and early 80s, but they never came anywhere near my small town, and I never saw any of these videos on TV. Seeing it now I'm even more blown away. This is so real and amazing, and she is just so naturally beautiful. Such a distance from the overproduced plastic product we get now.
I want more.
One hell of a rock vocal!
And without the benefit of autotune.
@scottiehall8695 - Benefit? Autotune is used rampantly now by those who can sing which drives me insane! 😢
Not necessary when you have real talent.
Good singers have no need for Autotune. Anyone dependent on it is loudly advertising their lack of ability as a vocalist. Its widespread use these days just emphasizes how much better the singers were back then.
@@leestamm3187 - this is the problem; people who can sing beautifully w/out it are using autotune & it drives me bonkers! Just sing dammit! 😆
@@dalevackar182 It's just another production tool. You may as well say that when you have real talent you don't need sound engineering.
One of the greatest things about heart was they would perform at very small venues and fairs. I saw them at The Kegger outside of Missoula, Montana in 1976. It was insanely good, Heart was far and away the best performance.
Whoa! Montana!
I was stationed in England and Heart was blasting all over the base. Two beautiful girls rocking. Life was good! Thank you, Ann and Nancy!
Just WOW! Ann's voice and stage performance is one of a kind, but in this song the guitar solo at the end is just mesmerizing. Despite the poor video and horrible lightning, Great stuff!!
Nearly saw them here! Tour postponed. Take care all especially Ann. 🇬🇧😢😢😢
They were snappy.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Well done Roger.
Can't wait to see them in March ❤
I love the Midnight Special, cause they put on so many amazing groups. I couldn't wait to watch and see who they were going to have on. Midnight Special was just simply the best.
Seen Heart live three times. Great live in concert experience! 🎶
Outstanding
Fantastic, can't get enough. I keep watching this over and over again...
Make sure you read the Wilson Sisters' wonderful book, 'Kicking and Dreaming: A Story of Heart, Soul, and Rock and Roll'. It's a great read and tells how the music industry used to be. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Odd little fun fact with this clip - Drummer Mike Derosier used (I think always) a single rack tom. However, from 1:13 to 1:16, there is mysterious footage of an unknown drum kit using 3 North-style rack toms. You don't see them anywhere else in the video, so that footage was obviously spliced in there - for what reason, I have absolutely no idea....
Wolfman Jack and the Midnight Special! Don Kirchner's Rock Specials too!
My favorite all time rock song!
Masterfully Talented, beautiful, smart women of exceptional ability.
the industry said "girls can't rock." Then came Heart...
@laureliechapman1267 - Prior to Heart was Fanny; sadly the misogyny was rife & they fell by the wayside because of poor production. Live is when the blow you away😊.
@@RnR-Rebel Fanny was outstanding and deserved better than they got.
@@RnR-Rebel yes, the point of my comment was that the industry did not make room for women to be commercially successful rock and roll artists, especially to be the leaders of their own band with male musicians. The lyrics to "Barracuda" tell the story as they experienced it. I know many female musicians had the talent but were not able to break through. Anne and Nancy broke through the glass ceiling and helped clear the path for other women in a male-dominated genre of music. I never heard of Fanny, but I am sure many female artists rocked but were not given the platform to find commercial success. I spent those years in a very rural area and did not have access to venues where artists played.
@@leestamm3187 - Agreed 100%😢
@@laureliechapman1267 - I’m sorry I didn’t clarify; I’m not disagreeing! I simply meant prior to Heart others tried very hard within RnR, had the backing of big name male musicians dropping their name to promote them & still got screwed because of misogyny within the music industry, using Fanny as an example. I work in the music industry; started back in the early punk days & even then when we thought we were flipping everything I had to fight my way up. 😆I told someone else on this thread to look up the meaning of this song “Barracuda”, we’re on the same page love! I’m sorry you didn’t have access to venues, when about 13-15 I didn’t either but we had record stores I could ask what was new, or to hear a particular band I’d read about. I don’t know if they do that anymore? Jet 😘💚
Finally live!! The Mellotron is there!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love this! So talented and passionate .... and, BTW ...... Schwing!
Iconic rhythm lick! Totally bad ass! The drumming on those first few albums, inspired my playing! Heart used to cover a lot of Zepplin, and you can hear it in their songs and their performances! Mushroom records, forever!🎊
❤
Rockin
Wow! Heart was my first real concert when I was 15. We were by the stage when Howard Leese handed me a red guitar pick which i still have. So cool! -- Last year, I saw the band Heart by Heart and met Steve Fossen and Michael Derosier. Great memories and super sweet guys. -- If I could sing like anyone in the world, it would be like Ann. She's the BEST woman singer EVER in my book!
Nancy is still my dream girl
God I love Ann Wilson, and Nancy's guitar playing was completely underrated.
No it wasn't, she was overrated. Nancy was always just an acoustic strummer in those days. Roger Fisher (her then boyfriend) was the lead guitarist and he is the one who created and played the riffs on songs like Crazy on You, Barracude and Magic Man which made them famous. Nancy only started playing electric in the years after Roger left the band, but her playing is nowhere near what his was.
They still have it for sure glad to see them recently. Thank you for posting this!
Never saw Heart, but I saw Ann waiting in the lobby of the Hotel Nikko Fukuoka Japan, along with Todd Rundgren, Alan Parsons and John Entwistle. I was on mushrooms (legal in Japan at the time) so I was too paranoid to talk to any of them. mid-November 2001
Both sisters were gorgeous and equally talented!
One of the best female voices of the 70s.
Happy Monday... thank you for sharing! 💖
1977!Didn't remember that tune was so old !Where have all the years gone !?Happy monday,cheers 🎸
@that70sgirl90 - *Both* sisters have fantastic talent, voices & still are gorgeous😊!
This is the most incredible, energetic, and best version of the song I've ever heard and seen I hope there is more to see from this concert at The Midnight Special!
@GerardFrenchy59 I blinked, and it was 2024! Cheers... To the good old days! Good times and Great music.😊
@@that70sgirl90 The days are gone, but the music stays in our heart 🙏🎸
Wowee!
Classic ✌🏼
I saw them the summer of 77 they were awesome. The ladies ahhhhhh.
That is how you do it...movers and shakers. Nothing better than Rock to make you get up and move. Kids today just "put their hands in the air".
I have always been blown away by this talented female rock star
Roger Fisher on guitar 👍👍👍👍👍
I know! And love the interplay between him and Howard. What a band....this is jump-starting my week for sure 😄
in another Star Wars outfit lol
@@eric_in_florida More like Star Wars using his outfits
Who's the guitarist who plays most or all of the leads?
@@poissonpuerile8897Roger Fisher on the right side of the stage was the lead guitarist. Howard Leese was the guitarist on the left side of the stage. In Barracuda, they traded lead for an awesome effect!
When the planets align. ❤
Ann Wilson in the 70s .man right out of a dream beauty .this line up was soo good too.I always said that IF Led Zep would have continued after Bonzo's passing.Mike Derosier really was the only one for me to be on the skins for them .xoxo
Nice! Thanks.
누나 사랑해요!!❤❤❤
Gives me chills!
Anyone remember MUSHROOM STUDIOS Vancouver Canada?
Barracuda, 1 milhão de views = ❤️
Ooooo that look Ann Wilson gives. I have her middle name
The seventies.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love these guys, still sound great!!
🤗🙏🍺cheers Burt!
👍😃
I only like the stuff from the 70's
_'Man!'_ *_SAVAGE!!_* ... What a bloody-well 'tough-arse'-kicking, 'axe-in-your-face', Awesomely *_RAW_* *'Mag-dumping' Performance!* ... _'This'_ is what *Hard-hitting* kick-arse Rock is supposed to sound, _by Jee-zuzz!_ ... And by _bloody-rights,_ one of the great _'arse-slammin'_ Classic-rock guitar-riffs of all time, _by Cripes Almighty!_ ... And you'd goddamn-well better _believe_ it, _'mister!'_
This is when bands had no safety nets and had to be damn good and practice a lot to be this tight live and in studio. Tape and studio time is not cheap
By FARRRRR the best incarnation of Heart. So so sad personalities got in the way so it could not continue. I hope Ann reads these comments from time to time because I have got to say this and I hope this is not offensive. MY GOD DOES SHE LOOK HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
never realized that Nancy didnt play any of the electric guitar on thins song...
Watch fast times at ridgemont high Nancy is in the scene with car
She’s also in the spiritual sequel which was a lesser known film called The Wild Life. She’s the wife of the jerky cop who was having a side fling with Lea Thompson’s character.
Will only & always watch the original Broadcasters posts 😁and NEVER these Rinky Dinky copyright utubers !
Ann=Fox!!
they must've been opening for YES
👍👍👍🐳♋
