Love this song... and this version is pretty darn funny...
Yes … great group !! You probably already know, but they’re from Cincinnati !!Currently bingeing The Isley Brothers. An incredibly talented group with a long, long history.
1950s
1960s
1970s
1980s
Was fortunate to see Neil at Nassau Coliseum, Long Island NY, back in 82 or 83. This was solo, mainly acoustic.
Show was in the round. This was his Trans tour, where he played maybe 3 songs electronically and then all the hits.
You know, high school 81-84, Bad Co was in the rotation. They really don’t hold up for me now 40 years later. Not in any of my classic playlists. I recognize their place in history but don’t think their sound ever evolved. JMO.
Was one of the first 8 tracks I owned
Great Song from one of my Top 5 Albums ever. This guy does it well. Thanks for sharing
You either love this band or hate them.
I’m the former…
Any escape might help to smooth
The unattractive truth
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
The restless dreams of youth
I've seen them many times, Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, Louisville, but the first time I saw them was my very first show at The Dame in Lexington on 05/23/2003. I'd just seen them on Austin City Limits and was really taken with them, so I immediately bought tickets to the sold-out show at The Dame. This was the original, and the best configuration in my opinion, of Robert, Marcus Randolph (drums). Danyel Morgan (bass) and Jason Crosby (organ).Now bingeing Robert Randolph and the Family Band. Wishing the weekend would hurry up and get here so I can light a bowl, crank these up to 11.
Ain't nothing wrong with this one..
This is the right direction...
And then there's that time that they blew the roof off the theater on Austin City Limits...
Dude I was at that show. I've seen hundreds of shows and many, many great bands. I've been fortunate. With that said, that tiny little show at the Dame (RIP) best concert I've ever seen. The music, crowd energy, vibe, just the most electric show I've ever seen in my 50 years on earth. RR is criminally underratedI've seen them many times, Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, Louisville, but the first time I saw them was my very first show at The Dame in Lexington on 05/23/2003.

I stood on the wall pew, looking over the jam-packed crowd, at the stage that was probably less than 15 feet away. With the smell of weed wafting through the air and the buzz of the crowd, there was a vibe that was immediately felt. I was blown away by their show, telling friends the following morning that I'm not sure anything I ever attended in the future could hold up to that live experience. They were fabulous !! RRFB had that youthful energy that bands have when they are on the way up and it showed in their set ... they really put in out there !! Their live album (Live at the Wetlands) had just been released and that was what everyone was expected to experience ... and the entire house did !! It was pretty awesome and very memorable, to say the least !! He began the show, just like on this album, same tune ... Ted's Jam !! The very first thing you heard was just the pedal steel ... I'll never forget it !! The hair stood up on my arms ... !!
Here is bit of their Austin City Limits performance on 09/29/02 ... it reeled me in to see them live at The Dame.
You just gave me a HUGE LIFT, Dawg !!Dude I was at that show. I've seen hundreds of shows and many, many great bands. I've been fortunate.

I was there, too. Great triple-bill !!I saw them in Cincinnati at Riverbend in 2006. Took my oldest daughter to her very first concert. Drive By Truckers, RR and The Family Band, and The Black Crowes. Killer show.
