Mickey Thomas is the singer in this song. You may remember him with Starship (We Built This City, Sara, Nothin’s Gonna Stop Us Now). Very under appreciated singer!
Also their song "Jane".
@@ralphfiligenzi6180 My all time favorite song from them ❤️✌️
Yep Mickey ole boy from Cario Georgia 👍
His vocals
On “Jane”
And “find your way back”
Are also stunning
Holy cow!! I never knew that! That’s amazing!! Lol thx for the fun fact!!
Between Elvin's guitar and Mickey's voice I know I'm caught and will never get away! This song never gets old🔥
Yeah but this is the wrong version. The definitive version is the live on the Midnight Special.
Agreed
@Janet F You obviously have great taste in music. Cheers!
💯💥
Right?
Oh man yall should of did the live version at the Midnight Special.
I know man, I’m so upset they didn’t 🤣
@@tyson9583 doesn’t mean they can’t do it sometime. It’s more important to start with the recorded version. That way you hear it the way the artist intended it.
The Midnight Special HAS to be done now.
Agreed
mickey was in his 20’s when he sang that, wasn’t he?
I just love Mickey Thomas's voice. He was also lead singer of Jefferson Starship. Great singer.
One of the lead singers of Starship...
He was one of the lead singers in both Jefferson Starship and Starship
This song never gets old, timeless classic.
The amazing Mickey Thomas on vocals. He's in his 70's now and can sing just as good. He truly is a marvel.
Isn't amazing that in 1976 songs like this would just come on the radio. Instant hit. Instant classic.
Yeah, it didn’t matter what station you were listening to what genre of music you were listening to the quality and quantity of musicianship was off the charts
Yeah, I was 9 years old & instantly fell in love with this tune!
Absolutely and the song is put together perfectly! ❤️
Don Kirchners late Saturday night ah the good old days 😊😊😊😊😊
Mickey Thomas lead vocals are incredible, he went on to sing for Starship.
Elvin Bishop is actually the guitar player. The singer is Micky Thomas.
The 70’s.
WHAT a decade for good times,parties or clubs every week,no one staring into little boxes,just having a damn good time,and of course,music like this made it all easy.
Damn I miss those great days.
Yes good times and miss them too!
Their version on Midnight Special is one of the best live performances I've ever listened to.
Aww man yall gotta see the live version (midnight special). The vocalist (Mickey Thomas) sounds even better live!
Yes -- a lot of people think Elvin Bishop is the singer since the song was released under his name. He wrote it and played guitar on it, but Mickey Thomas is the singer.
Yes Yes and Yes!!
Yes! They got to re-watch & react to the live! They need to see it!
This song is timeless !!!!
Watch the live version as well! You'll see how really good they were, the singing is phenomenal. Mickey had the pipes for sure.
Mickey Thomas, the power vocalist of Jefferson Starship is one of the finest of all time & amazing live💪
This song came out in 1975, the year I graduated high school. It was a huge hit then. I always loved this song, and loved your reaction! Thank you! ✌💙✌
Was a good year huh … I too was just fresh outta high school and a whole world to conquer, started going to a lot of concerts.
The whole album is fantastic! I play the same one I bought when it came out on my new turntable
You need to watch them perform this on the Midnight Special.
The live version of this on the Midnight special was outstanding!
Yes this is "CLASSIC" and sho'nuf "SOULFUL" to the bone!!!
I’m 62 years old now, but when I was a teenager and I asked the DJ if he would play it again. He laughed and said I can’t do that. 😂 I love this song.
Right on Stacy. From a fellow traveler. 🤘😎
63 here. Agree with you!
Stacy....same!
I know.....I used to love "Instant Replay" at the nightclub, but the DJ would smile at my request and say "oh no not that again":)
@@greg2976 63 here and agree.
I think this song is a hybrid of blues and rockabilly. Definitely a strong vibe with the phenomenal voice of Mickey Thomas leading the way.
Rockabilly??????? Really?
It's more a combination of classic R&B and rock. Also blue-eyed soul.
Asia and BJ… y’all give love to this song!! To see y’all loving this 70’s song is GOLD ❤
One of all time favorites. Mickey Thomas could kill it with the high notes. What a great song. Check out “Jane” by Jefferson Starship. So so good.
Love that jam!
I was 11 or 12 when this song came out. To this day, if I hear it on the radio, I turn it ALL the way up. This song is timeless. Love it! ❤️
When Asia breaks out the lip-gloss, you know the song is ❤️🔥
Haha. Yeah right
Mickey Thomas’s vocals are legendary! Jefferson Starship’s “ Find Your Way Back”, “Familiar Stranger” and “No Way Out” are more hits 🔥
The slide guitar on this song is sublime.
I remember when this song came out, when I was a teenager in high school, and still love it. I thoroughly enjoyed your reaction. Have a blessed day
When you watch the live version of this you see that Mickey Thomas effortlessly delivers this song, even that high note - ridiculously talented vocalist!
Heard this song a couple of years ago for the first time in decades, and, aw man, it was instant time travel. Love this tune. Never gets old.
Watch the live video. It's fantastic. And you get to see him singing x
Ànd he has fantastic stage presence. He's into it!
Elvin Bishop is the guitar player, Mickey Thomas was the lead singer , great song
You need to watch the live version that they performed on the Midnight Special..
You’re right, Asia. This was a great jukebox song! It was on constant rotation! 😊
Elvin Bishop is actually the guitarist or one of them. The guy singing was Mickey Thomas who also sang with Jefferson Starship later in his career.
What a Friday morning! You guys react to two of my favorite songs.....this one right here and the Eagles...One of these Nights! Be sure and see both live versions of both songs. The live version on Midnight Special is really, really good of Fooled Around......my best to you guys.
Thanks to the movie „The Guardians of the Galaxy“ for the renewed interest in these songs of my youth! The class of 1975 sure had a load of kickass tunes to listen to. Cheers
Asia & BJ, This reached #3 in the US, his only hit. Elvin on guitar, Mickey Thomas on lead vocals.
Elvin was in Paul Butterfield Blues Band for their first 4 albums, and they are in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame.
This song reminds me of my childhood. I was born in 68 and my parents used to take me to the local bars with them and I'd sit at the bar with a bowl of pretzels, a shot glass of maraschino cherries, and a Shirley temple along with a fast stack of quarters to play pinball with everyone adding to them when the stack would run low. Lol, a WAY DIFFERENT time and a LONG LONG time ago😁🫨
Such a different time. We were so lucky!
this song has some blues and soul combined, a perfect blend.
Good song choice. The '70's were a great time for songs like this that have universal appeal. There's something in this song for everybody to like; melody, soul, rhythm, blues, rock and roll, country, etc.
Amazing to me after all this time you guys are still finding these gems. This was one of my favorite songs as a kid.
Dr Hook and the Medicine Show made a living with these tunes with the same vibe. Love it.
That's the great Mickey Thomas & now you need to hear him sing "Jane" with Jefferson Starship.
💙☮💙☮💙☮💙☮💙☮💙
I'll never forget the first time I heard this song I was 16. I thought WOW. Elvin Bishop's guitar solo is classic, and Thomas' vocals bring it all together perfectly. What a great song.
You need to hear the live version of this! kickin!
The lead vocal on this song is Mickey Thomas and was released in 1975....... a banger of a song. It was on the Billboard charts for 17 weeks and peaked at #3. As always, loved your reaction, TY.
My mom and dad were great dancers, but they were mesmerizingly cool when they did The Stroll. This song came out when I was in junior high school and I bought the 45 (rpm). I was cranking it up on the stereo and when I went into the kitchen to get something to drink, there they were dancing The Stroll to this across the linoleum. Haha!
This song reminds me so much of when I met my wife! Such a great song and guitar solo done by Elvin! You guys were right on with your description of the song and exactly how I feel. Thank you! ❤️❤️
Always a fav since the 70’s! Such a smooth vibe and feel good song. Lots of dancing to this one 😉 one of my favs!
One of my favorites
Bishop's guitar solo is so simple, but melodic, precise, & so very very tasteful. It's my favorite part of this song. Mickey's voice & the drum fills are 2nd & 3rd.
Yes that solo is so emotive and beautiful with his 345 going through a 50watt Marshall and fender cab with some echo. One of my favorites!!
Ah, the sounds from my teenage years… we had some great music in the ‘70s! I thought you’d like this one! I’m sorry my request came through as “anonymous”… ❤️❤️
Awesome song request.. absolutely loved it💯❤️
Thanks again Melody!! 🤗
Wonderful song. Loved it then and still do.
Mickey Thomas...Jefferson Starship...The song is "Jane". What A jam...
That voice is Mickey Thomas, and the guitar is Elvin Bishop. That made a winning combination!
The singer Mickey Thomas can flat BLAST. One of the all-time greats. Check him out on "Jane" by Jefferson Starship.
You guy's HAVE to watch the live version of this on the show "The Midnight Special." It's an absolutely incredible performance.
one of the best slide guitarists ever. See clip of him live with George Thorogood
Love this song bring me back 💕 ❤️
********** "Fooled Around" charted in the Top 5 on Billboard in 1976. ELVIN BISHOP, from the LA suburb of Glendale, was an original member of the PAUL BUTTERFIELD BLUES BAND. He was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame & the Blues Hall of Fame.
Great voice, fun song. Makes me think of my teenage years... I am old, hahahahahaha!
we ain't old- we are seasoned !
I have heard Mickey Thomas sing in a living room at a Christmas party and he has a powerful voice.
Oneof the most heartfelt guitar leads in rock music.
THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS...BY LISTENING TO ELVIN. YOU WOULD THINK HE IS BLACK...HE MIXES ROCK WITH BLUES. BUT WITH A SOULFUL. BUT THIS IS MICKEY THOMAS' VOICE. A GREAT SINGER TOO...GREAT SONG ASIA & B.J AND GREAT REACTION .LOVE YOU GUYS .
So glad someone suggested this one! It's another of my favorites! Being a kid of the 70s, teen of the 80s was a great time to experience so much great music! Luckily my parents exposed us to all of it from Motown, to country, rock n roll, blues, pop, disco and every other in between, lol.
Elvin Bishop is the bandleader and lead guitarist, and his guitar solo in this song is classic. That great guitar solo was cut in half to make the record more "radio friendly."
Now you MUST do his song "Travelin' Shoes" which is actually sung by Elvin.
Always great to hear songs from back when the CRAFT of songwriting was still a thing. This tune's perfect--from clearly distinguishable verse/bridge/chorus construction to Elvin's perfectly situated guitar solo as well as the build-up to Mickey's BIG high note near the end. Perfect.
This was a major HIT for Elvin Bishop. Still is a monster of a hit song.
An Okie that got his blues chops in Chicago! Outstanding vocal range in Micky Thomas and just KILLER execution all around. A very underrated and, somewhat, unknown band.....more please?
That song really put a smile on Asia's face! Loved it! It's just a pretty song.
Asia and BJ what blows me away about you is you two get into so many genres and it is so welcome. Keep it up! Great job! You make me smile!
One of my favorite songs of all time. I loved this when I was little.
Thats Elvin Bishop on guitar and Mickey Thomas singing🎸🎶 Mickey also sang for Jefferson Starship and they have a song "Jane" thst showcases Mickeys powerful voice, so please listen to it!!🎶🎵🎤
This song has one of my favorite guitar solos ever.
i was 15 yrs old when that song came out ,and fell in love with my wife,every time i saw her my heart would get so excited , damn wish i could go back there , great song loved your reaction to it .
This may be the best reaction I’ve seen ever! I love watching you guys enjoying this great music!
Asia you need to record this song girl. I heard you singing.
If you want to hear Mickey Thomas wail even more, check out the smash-hit Jane from when he was lead singer of Jefferson Starship in the late 1970s. It is mind-blowing what a good singer he is and that was the vehicle for him to prove it. Plus it's a fantastic song with that iconic banging piano and heavy guitar riff.
This came out when I was in junior high but by the time I was in senior high, two other songs that I thought of as more soft then the hard rock I was mostly into, also became huge pop hits, Magnet and Steel by Walter Egan, and, Cruel To Be Kind by Nick Lowe. And this song by the Elvin Bishop Group was still receiving lots of airplay, and so for some reason, even though they were more pop than what I normally liked, they were just so good that I really liked them, and also, girls were really into these songs, so I went out and bought those three singles, so I would have something to take to parties and throw on the turntable, laugh. It turned out to be a good move!
Good for you whoever requested this one. I haven't heard this in years!
Micky Thompson's voice was a voice very familiar to that generation. He was also the lead for Jefferson Startship for a while and was lead vocal on "Jane"
One of my all time favorite songs. I’m so glad that you chose the “correct” version, the longer, album version. There is a short, chopped version that was for radio play. The entire 2nd verse is missing, and so is the extended guitar solo.
Should of listened/ watched the live version. Mickey Thomas is amazing
I love this song... But the Album version is not the best as hard as that is to believe.. You MUST watch the live performance.. Stunning!!
Asia it’s 70’s rock. That’s why you like it ! 👍
Baby you are right! It was a great juke box hit! One of the great songs of the best decades of music...... The 70s, especially early 70s. Y'all guys are great and I'm glad you are being exposed to the best music of my life!! I love it that you appreciate it!
You need to look at the live version of this song and you can see these two people to us make wonderful music together
Having grown up in the mid 60's and into the early/mid 70's -- I've got a LOT of great songs in my head.
What a time to be alive -- in terms of music. And THIS song is one of my all-time favorites. It's absolutely well crafted and produced. Then when you add Elvin's guitar work and Mickey Thomas's soaring vocals -- you just can't beat it.
Great to see the generations of this ERA reacting to 60s 70s n 80s music the best years of my life n this was such a cool song like a lot of them that came out back then n still play to this day love love love 🤗🥰💜💜💜
The influences of blues, Soul and R&B are honored so well by Elvin and Mickey. They paid tribute to those originators!
you both obviously loved that song, but also not just this song , but in all of your posts, when great guitar gets to going, ASIA'S face just lights up, LOVE you both so much, PAPA RAY !!
LOVE your smiles and reactions! I have always loved this song! Keep up the good work! 😎🎶❤
What a great song. can't. I help but slow dancing with someone when I hear it.
I love how you guys listen and not talk and you guys are feeling it you’re feeling it. God bless you guys keep it up don’t interrupt, feel it, at the end. Thank you so much I’m a senior citizen man this is my music I get it.
I remember the year that song hit the airwaves, and we all have those songs where as soon as you hear it on the radio the reflex just takes over and the volume gets turned up, and this was one of those songs for me as well as a lot of people in that time. It surely was.
Hi A & BJ! Love Mickey’s voice, and as others said, he moved to front the old Jefferson Airplane when it changed its name to Jefferson Starship, and
eventually jus Starship.
My band used to do a song of theirs called ‘Jane’ which is a solid rocker with a great vocal by Mickey… man could he sing !
They have a great live performance from the show Midnight Special. I think you guys would love it!
This song is #1 on my play list. It sets the tone. Nice slow dance song at all the parties. What memories. Makes me smile.
Listen to that wicked, funky bass line. The ‘70’s was THE greatest decade for popular music.
Watching you two hear this for the first time made my day. Elvin is a character. I always wanted to meet him.
Mickey Thomas is the singer ,, he joined up with Jefferson Starship or just Starship by the time he joined the band that use to be Jefferson Airplane ... Elvin was in The Paul Butterflied Blues Band back in 1967 at the Monterey Pop Festival ..Elvin has tons of great songs . Check out Struttin' My Stuff , he and Mickey both sing on that one
