The perfect example of the late sixties music culture. My favorite Association song.
My favorite also
mine too...shear bliss! LLOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! 67..the Summer of LOVE!@@jrousselle7828
The music in the Summer of '67 was as blissful as you imagine.
The letter and light my fire come to mind, my army dayz
I have never heard an Association song that I didn’t like.
The Association was a very big part of the music from my high school years. This is definitely my favorite song of theirs.
Their best song and my favorite song of theirs
Love The Association, and this is my favorite song by them. Takes me back to a place and time that is long gone. Thank you so much!
their best single. now weirdly forgotten tho it reached number 8 back in the day
#10, not #8. My fave Association song, too.
I love the Association
Gorgeous song, what can you say? It's IMO a perfect song, musically, lyrically. I LOVE IT, always have. You're on fire today!
They are in the Vocalists Hall of Fame. You are spot on Harri. 🙃🔥👍
A major difference between The Association and bands like The Beach Boys was that with 6 or 7 guys in the band each handling multiple instruments, these guys didn't need to rely on studio musicians to fill out their sound. Also, in the couple of years before their first hit, they spent most of their time producing and mixing recordings for other bands, and learned a lot in the process.
Also, as you listen, remember that those multilayered harmonies were performed LIVE, and without techno-crutches like Autotune.
Never My Love
Cherish
A few more Association songs for you.
This song is beautifully orchestrated. The harmonies out of this world.The instruments so pleasing 🎵 . Glad I grew up on this music. Thank you Harri and Daniel. Great reaction. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks Mary. Harri did Cherish a few weeks ago. I love both songs you mentioned. 👍🙃🔥🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🤴🇬🇧
"Never My Love", their best in my humble opinion. Personal connection to that song.
Perfect wedding song.
In the songs I've been singing quite often a phrase
Comes close to the feeling of you
But I never suspected that one of those days
The wish of the song would come true
This song sounds heavenly to me. A favorite!
Another great by The Association! Thanks Daniel and thanks to Harri for giving all of us a platform to keep great music alive !💫
Thanks Ginny. You do the same with your great picks. 👍🙃🔥
A favorite!!
One of my favorite lyrics
Thank you Daniel, for requesting this gorgeous song. Until recently I had forgotten all about the Association and the string of beautiful songs they released in the 60’s. Another nice reaction from Harri🌺✌️
Thanks Debbie. 👍🙃
lovely ear candy
I think they were way ahead of their time I love this song
The really amazing thing is that these guys are still out on the road playing live concerts!
Hi Harri, Great ear as usual; the one and only Joe Osborn on bass and Hal Blaine on drums... cream of the crop my friend!!! - Brooklyn Mike
Sir--------another " Association " classic : " NO FAIR AT ALL " ------give it a listen. ---------MJL
Another fantastic one Daniel never get tired of The Association. ☮️
Thanks Cyn. You sitting on the Dock of the bay much? 🔥🙃👍🇨🇦🇬🇧🤴🇺🇸🇺🇦🕊️
@@danielvolk237 Actually not as much as I would like to. The weather has not been great up here. Worst spring and beginning of summer that I can remember in a long time. Still having a good time though. 🥶🇨🇦☮️
@@Cynthia... We are going up north. My mother was born in small town of Blind River. We stay on a lake in the area. We have been coming up for many summers. We are also going to visit friends in the town of Ingersoll in three weeks. Can't wait. I love 🇨🇦. It has been
so hot in Ohio the last month. Hope you get some great weather the rest of your stay. Thanks Cyn. 🇨🇦🙃🔥👍
@@danielvolk237 Oh that sounds wonderful and you should have some really great weather it’s supposed to be warming up a bit now although I see three or four days of rain in the forecast for here. Not the best place to be when it rains for a long time. I hope you have a wonderful time.🇨🇦🇺🇸☮️
@@Cynthia... Thanks Cynthia.. Hope the weather gets better for you. 🇨🇦🕊️🙃👍
This played on my car radio a lot in S Calif in the late 60s, when I was in my early 20s. Enjoyed seeing THE ASSOCIATION live in 1968.
Reminds me of 'Cherish'.
I appreciate your airing of this older music.
67 and from the US.
Terry Kirkman wrote both songs. Good ear. 👍🙃
Born in 1970, I've loved this band ever since I was a toddler, when I repeatedly insisted that my father play their greatest hits album. Most of their songs are upbeat, but perhaps their most interesting song is the darker "Requiem for the Masses." It's about the death of a hero or a tragic figure. It might have been about the Vietnam War, but I'm sure there are plenty of different interpretations. Get the lyrics if you choose to react to it.
Thanks for featuring this incredible song Harri!
It is so great to hear the same observations about the Association being said in 2023 that we were saying the first time I saw them live in 1966! This song is also my favorite Association.
LYRICS dwarf the beach boys and mamas and the papas!....Listen to it again, and the way they slip the words in!!
Windy also great
Dick Clark, "Music is the soundtrack of our lives". He was so right. Every month (sometimes every week) a song would be released that would be timeless (like this one) . I was surrounded by these songs from the time I became musically aware in March 1960 when Elvis came home from Germany (right here at Fort Dix, New Jersey) until the Napster era when things began to dissolve. Be jealous Harri. It was 50 years of the greatest music.
So many hit tunes and all great combining great vocals and musicianship !
The Frangipani likes to grow in sand just like the coconut ehich epitomises the island signified by the Moon. Plus these baby bommers are like The Beach Boys (signifies sand again) plus the name The Associates which is a group of olden times when people glad together in groups for pleasure. Now the Moon is overtaken by the 11th lord for groups in the kali yuga (last days) where people get together for gains.
Love love The Association, please react to more of their songs! 💕👍Thank you Harri!
My fav of The Association and I think it did well on the charts in the top 10, loved this one back in the day. They had several hits...and also were on several of the TV shows back then like Carol Burnett, Ed Sullivan, The Smother's Brothers, etc. so got lots of exposure with their fans. They also pretty much kept the same guys in the group as well. Thanks, wanted this one reacted to...
Wow! I haven't heard this in ages! Thanks Harri!
Windy is another upbeat feel good song. It doesn't sound like a "classic" but it was #1 or close to it, as was Never My Love and Cherish. But their first hit, Along Comes Mary, would surprise you because it is more of a rocker.
Harri's reacted to "Windy", "Cherish" & "Along Comes Mary". He still needs to do "Never My Love".
Along comes Mary reminds me of riding in my oldest sisters VW, her singing along to every song on the AM radio. She was 13 years my senior and I was her sidekick. I miss her terribly but songs like this keep her close to my heart.
Terry Kirkman, the lead singer and co-founder of the group, is playing the recorder (a flute-like instrument) on this and other tracks. The irony of this group and other '60s groups was record companies routinely used studio musicians rather than let the group members play. The only group member who plays on this track was Terry. Everyone else was a Wrecking Crew veteran. The bass player was Joe Osborn and the drummer was Hal Blaine. Interesting fun fact: on this album , "Birthday," they were offered the Jimmy Webb song that Richard Harris had a worldwide smash hit with, "MacArthur Park." But the group wanted to include only their own compositions on the album. Missed chance?
maybe. but that is one great LP for sure really stands up as a pop/psych classic
They did play all the instruments on their second lp Renaissance
Terry Kirkman also wrote this song, in addition to Cherish.
Their best song from the greatest decade for music the 60s
Jim Yester also sang lead with Terry on this
this is my favorite association; a masterpiece that is overlooked by FB music groups that post music. i like these folks who do reaction videos.
From '68--------another Terry Kirkman song-----like " Cherish " ------this is my all-time #1 by this so very underrated group. RIP, to all members who have passed. ------------MJL, 76 y/o
It is right up there with Cherish and Never My Love - a very meaningful song to me at the time - first high school girlfriend! Glad you liked it Harry~
I haven't heard this for a very long time .. Thank you Harri
Love song
Ahhhh, great song! I wish you would've selected their appearance on "The Ed Sullivan Show 1968" with this song. Then we would've seen the guys on Stage instead of a useless photo collage LoL
I don't think I've heard this since it was on the charts back in the 60's. Thanks for bringing back some good memories.
Sounds like one of those U.S. pop records that signaled the closing of the eclectic decade of the 1960s. I am listening to this with one speaker off. It is interesting to listen to it minus the stereo channel.
A spiritual trip to the past while caressed by the beautiful lyrics and harmonies!
Thanks to you. They were the folk rock heroes to us back then. They are still touring but missing some key musicians! Keep it up !!
Daniel my brother! Glad to see you in my association association. Lol
The association of associations 🤪 Thanks Pal. Thought you were breaking into an Elton John song with that opening line. 😉
I had a feeling you'd dig this tune, Harri. Thanks for the reaction.
You made an association with The Mama’s & The Papa’s and the Beach Boys, hence ‘The Association’ 😁
I could be wrong, I think the general sound and feel of this song is "The Mersey Beat" out of England.
Consider ' Love Can Make You Happy' by Mercy.
I had not heard this song before but this is fantastic. Keep the Association rolling Daniel Volk!!! The ending...WOW!!! I concur with you Harri. 👍✌️🥁
Thanks Imadrummin. Yeah Terry wrote Cherish and this gem.🙃🔥👍🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🇬🇧🤴
i was so hoping you would get to my favorite association song. one of their lesser known songs as it got no radio airplay when they were ruling the airwaves in the 60's. i was a huge beach boys fan back then - they were the first band i ever saw live in '65 when i was 12. but i actually liked the harmonies of the association more as they were not going into the ever present falsettos on the high notes like the beach boys did. of course that was their surf sound and it was still great but just different
Ditto everything !
My favorite song of all time, thank you>>> because of the lyrics! Just subscribed!
Thanks, Daniel, this is such a dreamy song--love The Association!
Thanks Cosmo, Still chasing you. 🙃👍
I am thinking of Willow and Great Day. What do you think?
@@danielvolk237 Sorry, brother, not familiar with either.
@@Cosmo-Kramer I am sorry. Thought you were the one talking about Requesting Paul McCartney songs from "Flaming Pie" album. My mistake. I am old. 😉
@@danielvolk237 Oh, gotcha, yeah, that was me. I thought you were saying they were songs by, The Association. Yes, I still plan on sponsoring, "Willow", as that was produced by Jeff Lynne. So if you can let me have that one, I'd appreciate it. I'll get to it, but as you've probably noticed, I've been away from Harri's channel on a break. I'll be back, though. As for, "Great Day", that was not produced by Jeff, so by all means, go ahead and sponsor it if you like. Sound cool?
So happy you did this. I think I might have requested it, too, but you get so many requests. It's simply one of the most gorgeous songs written in the past 50+ years. The change in pitch on the word at the 3:06 mark "to the feeling" is sheer brilliance. By the way, what are those golf course shots and pictures of peacocks having to do with this song? LOL! Absolutely, the writers and arrangers and producers were way better back then. Nowadays, the goal is to make your song sound like a previous hit. Back then, everyone was trying to do something new.
David when the group got back together again in the early 80,sadly minus an original member Brian Cole who passed away in 1972,i had the pleasure of hearing them do a MAJESTIC take of ETTY.You comment at 3:06 how the lead changed and also at 3:15 they put the same change in at the Live show i saw.And the counter-part ending was mind-boggling.We actually had a recording of it .The quality wasnt good but you can tell the performance was MAJESTIC.Might be my fav song of all-time.Im so glad to see the Kudos its getting here.
A beautiful period of history that was so explosive & beautiful & all coexisted together to be arguably the most exciting & turbulent & everything it could be that lasted only 6 to 7 years max. 1965 to 1972, Vietnam War ( American era ), Muscle Cars era, Folk Rock, Hippie Movement, psychedelic rock, jazz rock , flower power, it was the most unbelievable era , an era I relieved my whole life with my daddy & his brother that was forever stuck in 1964 to 1972, because there was no time that close & exciting. Sadly & strangely it ended as abruptly as it started.
From the greatest decade in music the 60s
To this day i cant believe the highest this charted was #10.WTF were people listening to in 1968?
great review - love this band since i was child - just saw them in concert, july 14 2023
Association -1. An organized body of people who have an interest, activity, or purpose in common; a society. 2. A mental connection or relation between thoughts, feelings, ideas, or sensations. 3. A remembered or imagined feeling, emotion, idea, or sensation linked to a person, object, or idea.
This song is a disclosure of the Law of attraction and how it has worked for a person singing it. This is real and it is what you are meant to do.
I challenge anyone to let this song get stuck in your head. Allow your life to change to love and happiness. Your special person will appear to you.
They were from California but unlike The Beach Boys, I don't remember any of their songs having anything to do with the beach.
They came out of the folk scene, not surf music. Their first local hit was a cover of Dylan's One Too Many Mornings. The also play their own instruments on this song. ua-cam.com/video/v5lx_0pOns4/v-deo.html
If anything, it had that urban really Big City (NYC, Philly, and especially Chicago, where as a little kid I thought they were from before finding out many years later they were LA-based) feel to their sound if you ask me......
The bass line that is so inescapable was performed by the incredibly talented Carol Kaye of the
Wrecking Crew
I did not know that! I love that bassline. What other songs did she play on that may be familiar?
Listen to her in These boots are made for walking in 1966.
They were a LA based band . Strong Beach Boys influence here . Love these guys .
They sound like The Association to me.
The association had so many beautiful songs. Did you do “Windy”. ? If you like vocal harmonies maybe check out the song “Kites Are Fun” by Free Design. It’s a beautiful sixties song. Great reaction. Thanks
He did "Windy" a few days ago.
@@dagmar.6954 thanks
I love The Free Design as much as The Association! "Kites Are Fun" is great of course but "Daniel Dolphin" and "One By One" are among my other favorites of theirs.
My favorite song of theirs. Beautiful and uplifting song!
Folk Rock. Jazz Rock. Psychedelic Rock era. So amazing. You can check out , Grass Roots, the Rascals, Peter, Paul, & Mary, Johnny Rivers, Spiral Staircase, Paul Revere & the Raiders. Some of the great Jazz & Folk Rock of course the Doors were the leaders at the top. This era only had a hard core 5 years. Maybe 7 total but so much going on during that time. You can always hear the huge Jazz influence they grew up with cause of their parents era , 1940s, 50s jazz which they played at school in the band then at night they are in their garage with drums & Guitars trying to imitate the Beatles & Stones, & mixing this new garage rock band era with their parents jazz. I would say Chicago & The Doors did it at the most elite Beatles & Stones level. But, the Hippie Rock, Folk Rock , Psychedelic Rock, & Jazz Rock era. So great.
Harri, have a great weekend.
In.the.studio.recording.it.was.the
Wrecking.crew. playing.most.of
The..Instrumentals
Excellent observation on their
similarity to a couple of other
groups at that time.
One other song that you should
definitely hear is
Requiem For The Masses
Harri, one of the things that REALLY surprised me was finding out they were LA-based when growing up I thought they were from Chicago as that music had that really Big City (Chicagoland/NYC) feel to it in this then-ten year old kid's eyes; goes to show you never can really tell.....
Thank you for enjoying this brilliant work with us.that
Yes, Moon has no enemies. Even Sidereal Scorpio where Moon is at its fall, the dispositor of Scorpio which is at its fall in Cancer. So the debilitaion of Moon in Scorpio is also cscelled through double negatives become a position. Moon is also exalted in Taurus where no planets are in fall in Taurus, plus the Moon is exalted in a sign which it does not rule meaning a perdon who assumes a managerial position in yhe grapevine in the office where is not really the gormal office mansger. That is powerful because everything thst goes to the office manager needs to go throuhh him first.
Yes the 60s was a good time to be alive where the baby boomers are at the prime of yheir lige.
Moon is the father of Mercury the Generation Y guys. I suspect you are from Generation Y.
You mention how the Association, Beach Boys and Mamas and Papas all had a similar beautiful sound. Actually, the recording musicians that made the backing tracks for all three of these bands were the Wrecking Crew, the unofficial name for the 30 or so core group of L.A. session players that made many of the hits, movie soundtracks and jingles of that era.
I took a young lady to see them on our first date and we had a great time listening to the music. Well we ended up getting married.
This song chokes me up I am not sure why but it is to me sublime melody, harmonies and lyrics perfectly executed.
You've done 4 of their songs now. They had a lot of other great hits such as "Never My Love", “Time For Livin'”, “The Time It Is Today”, “Enter The Young”, “No Fair At All”, "Requiem For The Masses" etc.
Dagmar, let's not forget the tune which has become a crowd fave in their live performances, "Six Man Band"! Definitely a Bucket List Band (Bands you've never seen but absolutely MUST see before the last surviving original member kicks the bucket) in my eyes! While we're on the subject of "Time For Livin'", that is one of the greatest chill out songs ever recorded if you ask me!
Ahhhhhh
reminds me of my feelings for my first girlfriend.
Their best song in my opinion.
I "associate" their name AND their music with rock. To me it is Soft Rock.
Good grief, stop already with the Wrecking Crew, with the insinuation that they didn't play their own instruments. They were on the road 250 days of the year and studio time was expensive. For expediency, the producers sometimes had Wrecking crew / studio musicians play the backing tracks. This was the same for many groups at the time. When your touring schedule only allotted 40 days to make an album, time was precious. But having seen them many times, they were great musicians in their own right and sounded as good or better live than as studio versions. The harmonies pristine, no pitch correction, sampling or auto-tune.
Considering their top 3 love songs, maybe only the Beatles and Bee Gees compete
"Guilt" was the album we all wanted them to record! LOL! Sorry Harri.
They were allowed to be creative then. The labels have too much control over the artists today, and any artist who is created is marginalized. I think that many artists today could impress us massively, if they were just allowed to.
the harmony this group had was never reconized.
Never heard this version.You need to play the single version.This is a very weird version.It s NOT the version you should be playing.
