Just the way the Groovies reworked "Married Woman" shows they are one of best rock and roll bands in the world. I loved the song so much I hunted down the Frankie Lee Sims version to hear what the original sounded like. So different I almost didn't recognize it.
It´s a mess that the sound quality is so bad. But I love the record "Live At Filmore East" (or Filmore West), where the quality is bad as well. On this old record it´s pure R&R.
@@thomasandersen6719 I love it because it moved, which the later Seger's songs didn't. Made a lot more money by doing his plodding ballads. As a side note, generally when a rocker starts wearing a beard their rocking days are over.
HARDLY!!!! FUCKING GOOD R-N-R, BUT THIS HIPPY WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO SEE THE ORIGINAL MEMBERS IN THE DAY, & IN DETROIT AT THE EASTOWN THEATER, I WAS FUCKING BLOWN AWAY- LOVE THOSE GUYS, & THOSE TIMES!!! LSD&HIGH GAIN ROCK 🎸 AND I WAS- YOUNG!!!!!!!!
What a mess. Skip the first 6 minutes because sod all happens. Then skip the rest because it would be embarrassing if this were an unrehearsed pub band doing their first gig free, but I assume the FGs were actually getting paid for this. Shame.
Still amazing...after all these years!!
Great band. I had never seen them play. i am glad i did today.
Feel a whole lot better!!!
Power Pop from before there was even such a term.
I've always been a fan!
Sound great when you consider how the stones sound now ,,,fuckin brilliant

Also the drummer here has a Radio Birdman shirt, check that great band out.
This is just great. Thanks so much.

Gawd I fucking LOVE this band!!!!
Glad to see he's still got the Dan Armstrong plexi guitar
When I was in college they where going for like 400 tops,now theyre upwards of 3 to 4k
One of the greatest songs in rock history - "Slow Death" - needs that slide gents. NEEDS it. Where's Mr Farrell????
This is the peoples band. This is a great band.
Radio Birdman shirt spotted.
Those who might be interested: check out the Barracudas, they collaborated with some of the Groovies personnel in the 80s at the least!
Chris Wilson on the right was with the Barracudas.
I saw both of them at Durham University in London.
they look younger now

I prefer Slow Death with the slide. Still - class act
can someone please list the band members...several seem too young to be originals
Love how this starts with the only good Bob Seger song!
Worst Seger song ever
