The bass player here gives a such unique dimension !! all are genius musiciens !!! That rythmic guitare solo is awesome !!! He s doing impro with chords only is fantastic !!! Then we have the solo guitar which is more classical approach of a solo guitar !! Then the talking bass solo !!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩gosh I did train to play that solo of bass
@@Kassiusday I wrote a long in depth response, then somehow dropped the ball and lost it? The point is, that Ferrone is as good a drummer as you'll find out there. He's awesome, period. Go checkout my Robbie McIntosh playlist and compare the AWB groove in the first 3 videos to ANY performance since. It should be obvious that Robbie brought another dimension to his playing. It's a million subtle things he does that's from his heart. It can't be taught. A few other drummers have brought similar magic to their groups, but NONE on the level Robbie did. Robbie elevated AWB from a great band to Legendary. Since '75, AWB has been a great band, but they'll never stand out from the other greats as they did when Robbie was alive.
Back in the days when bands could expand their performances for 10, 20 or more minutes (The End by the Doors, Get ready by Rare Earth, Papa don´t take no mess by James Brown, On Broadway by George Benson, Take Five by Al Jarreau etc etc ...) because they did not need studios where everything is dubbed and dubbed and dubbed again until it fits ...... glad to be from the fifties and witnessed all of them from the start
@@lizpedano1542 yes, you're right! Those musician (and there are still so much of them) actually really controlled their instruments and did not depend on studio equipment etc .... 👍
@@tilaunc I would pay to see this concert in you tube video the best concert ever live of average white ... that bass solo and rhythmic guitar is fabulous !!!!! , am surprised there is any video record of this concert so weird !!!
I was at this Concert in Cleveland Ohio when they were recording this l.p. they jammed!!! One of The Best Concerts I ever been too! Needless to say my mind was completely blown and so was everyone else Funkiest White Group Ever if you don't dance to them u are dead!!

This is 🔥. So glad I had a father who introduced me to this band when I was a kid. 💯 funk!
😢miss them so much, thank you for the best music made and making us have the greatest memories dancing to ur songs 🎉
In the pocket!
Anthem not only through the 70s but used in quite a few House music Productions all down hill for a very long time in my op............😆
They're performing Hustleman's song!! So cool!! 🎷
La grande classe cet album
Still GREAT MUSIC in 2021!
In my opinion Average White Band and Earth Wind and Fire are the top two live performances ever.
James Brown /Jb's trumps all that
This bass solo inspired me at 17 and still does at 59.
Steve killing them drums! Clean and precise

Badass
FINE TRACK DANCED A LOT ON IT
Allen took it to the BRIDGE.
This bass solo inspired me to be a professional musician. Excelent musicians and album!
I still have this album
very healthy music indeed : no alcohol no drugs needed @all - maybe some ladies on the dancefloor having the groove in their hips and....::: GO!
I still play Drums on this sound to this day/2020
The drummer was fantastic !!!! He left us too early !!
@@Kassiusday Don't get it twisted. Steve Ferrone a great drummer, but this is NOT Robbie McIntosh. Robbie wouldn't play that stiff on his worst day.
@@EricAnthem could you expend a bit about it , wd you trying to say Ferrone was not a good drummer ??

@@EricAnthem - Stiff. You should get off the drugs. Ferrone is driving this groove.
Smooth
The Sax is so savage Bass is not far away Freedom!
Those 23 thumbs down ! they are deaf ! The best scottish band I ever seen in my life ! (1977/ amsterdam) And this album is must have.

all musicians should hear this.. Classic groove playing.
A clinic I'll say!
I remember hearing this for the first time years ago. Still a hot album, awesome musicianship. They played together and this will always be a classic.
