-Our Intro Song "Feel the Love" From Alex's band
open.spotify.c...
Im dying!! I’m boardroom girl!! I’m sitting here alone today. The office guys missed a good one! Thanks for the shout out guys 😂😂
@Mary Ann
Haha!! You’ll have to show them this one!! 😂🙌🏻🔥
Loved the story Mary Ann. I also watch A&A the weeks I'm in the office. I get a lot of funny looks from people who pass my desk, because I have the volume turned up pretty loud. Once I told someone, I can't start work until I've watched Andy & Alex!
@@andyandalex I know right!! They better not have anything against girl bands! 😊💘💘
@@susanklasinski1805 I was so busted that day. 🤣🤣
You rock!!!!!!! Awesome what's become of it huh. ☮️♥️♾️
Next song should definitely be "Magic Man."
I am not buying that they have NEVER heard of this song c'mon. no freaking way. songs they have done recently I can give them that but this song, no way. there is no way. This song is played everyday like 50 times for over 50 years.
on their birthdays when some one sings happy birthday to them to they not know that song either? and how can they play Led ZEP One? PHONIES
@@stocksgoupward5922 They're 22 yrs. old...c'mon.
I vote Magic Man as well
"Magic Man" is my favorite song from Heart.
100% Truth
Another banger from Heart is “Crazy On You”. You must give this a listen!
They did!
@@loosilu I thought they did Magic Man, no?
@@pinewaves They did Crazy on You and the Staircase cover, that's it! If you're not sure if they did a song you can search the channel.
Yep, they did already. ua-cam.com/video/kDVw96WPlGE/v-deo.html
@@loosilu Thanks! I will watch it.
So here is a cool story. My dad played with a country artist named Gretchen Wilson. Heart was in town and Gretchen asked heart if they wanted to come to her next live show and my dad was working with Gretchen at the time and my dad got to play barracuda with heart...after the show Nancy Wilson told my dad that he did really good because that’s a hard song... any way everyone have a good day and stay safe!
In my opinion Gretchen Wilson is the third Wilson sister. She can really tear it up. Check out her cover of Barracuda with Alice in Chains at the 2007 Rock Honors (cameo by Nancy Wilson). She rocks the house.
Wow! What a cool effing story. I am envious.
Great story!
I’ve seen. Video clips of Gretchen & The Wilson Sisters doing this song. Gretchen has a great voice…. It she’s no Anne Wilson. Anne probably has the most powerhouse female rock voice of all time. That’s not a knock on Gretchen at all… like j said she’s got a great voice. Annie is just ‘Nother Level.
Ann Wilson has the iciest voice I've ever heard. No man can get it as cool as she does it.
If you haven't seen it, "Stairway to Heaven" for Kennedy Center honors Led Zeppelin.....Ann just nailed it, and production was amazing. Bonzo's son played drums....Plant teared up!
They did it as a drunk reaction!
I totally agree with one pre condition tho, they first have to listen to Led Zeppelin doing it live, then move to Ann and Nancy doing Stairway :)
The boy’s got to do this!
Oh, I teared up watching it.
Look back in the video reactions about 1 year ago... Drunk Reactions with George Thorogood / Heart/ Focus and Tool!
There’s nobody in the world like Ann and Nancy. Phenomenal talent
AGREE! Nancy's beautiful voice goes unappreciated too much, IMO.
@@DianaJG8 Nancy doesn't play on this track
The only woman who even comes anywhere close to Ann’s voice is Lzzy Hale from Halestorm. They did a couple covers of Heart songs and if I didn’t know better, I would think it was Ann singing. Lzzy even tears Heart songs up live... I have seen both live and both women are beyond talented. Halestorm reminds me so much of Heart and Ann & Nancy’s sassy lyrics and memorable guitar riffs.
@@DianaJG8 All you have to do is listen to "These Dreams" and realize that Nancy could be the lead singer for any other band.
I thought they were cousins. Still, I saw them in early 80s in London where they did a one off gig as they were actually on tour with Queen as their opening . I think we caught them just before or right at the beginning of their power ballad years, which I couldn't stand. I was a Dreamboat Annie girl and lucky for us they played what we wanted them to.
p.s. found the setlist! June 6 at Dominion Theatre, London, 1982, Happy daze.
www.setlist.fm/setlist/heart/1982/dominion-theatre-london-england-43d0338f.html
p.p.s please note guest guitarists!! I was off my face I know but how did I forget both Randy California and Brian May? Must have been good gear and I can remember loads of it but...
Roger Fisher was the lead guitarist doing all those cool AF lead guitar fills
Not taking away anything from Ann and Nancy, but Roger does not get enough credit for his contributions to these songs!
@@bucketfootbaseball You are exactly right! Roger was an awesome guitar player and a 'huge' part of Heart's rock sound before the band transitioned into the 1980s pop diva sound
One of the most underrated guitarist of 70’s. Nancy played some of the best rhythm guitar of all time and was a great writer but Roger’s leads were so subtle.
@@bucketfootbaseball Exactly. This song is a prime example, as it was the result of a jam session between Roger and Michael Derosier (drummer). Heart's best years were in the 70's, before Roger was dismissed from the band in 79 and Heart became a power pop group. Not sure why Nancy and Ann are given so much credit. It is almost as if the novelty of having a rock band with two prominent female members overshadowed the reality of the talent helping drive the band to success
@@danapaul3216 The great thing about Roger's playing was even though he could play fast and hot if needed, he chose to play tasty licks that fit just right for the song! As you say, highly underrated!
Saw them back in 1978 for seven dollars. They finished their set with four Led Zeppelin songs so you could say they are huge fans. We waited after the concert to meet them, and when the limo came out They stopped and I got a hug and a kiss on the cheek from Ann Wilson. They were so nice and kind and it will always be a memory I will cherish
Their "S" song is definitely "Magic Man", with "Straight On to You" a close second.
Magic Man is totally sick.
Dog and Butterfly is a super cool chill song.
Crazy on You and Barracuda are the best in my opinion
Both part of my top 10 favourite all time songs
Dudes listen to "EVEN IT UP" "STRAIGHT ON" by Heart, gaurenteed A+s
Great suggestions.
Yes!!!!!
Absolutely, two great songs!
Bebe Le Strange from the same album as Even It Up!
Am I the only one who likes “Dog and Butterfly”?
I love the acoustic version of this! ❤
Saw them live in '78 on the Dog and Butterfly tour - fantastic show!
"Dog and Butterfly" is an amazing song.
No you are not
No. you are not!
I would suggest a reaction to "Straight On" or "Magic Man"
Straight On is my favorite Heart song.
Yes! Magic Man👍
Straight on
Both great. Heartless is a banger as well.
Both are great suggestions. I'm partial to straight on
I saw them on the "Midnight Special" back in the 70's. After their set, I got in my car and bought the old Vinal copy. Wore it out too...
I’ve always thought the two most powerful female vocalists in rock was Ann Wilson of Heart and Pat Benatar. Pat’s vocals on Promises In The Dark are astounding!
SPOT ON!!!!!
"Straight On" would be another good one to start a Monday with
Ann Wilson has one of the most iconic rock and Voices The song barely scratches the surface of how fantastic her voice is
Definitely recommend more Heart. Magic Man, Crazy on You, Straight On. The Wilson sisters (vocals and guitar) IMO are the female Plant and Page. Great stuff.
They did Crazy on You, but only that one, I think.
They did "Crazy On You." Check the videos and enjoy.
They've done Crazy on You.
Comparing Nancy to Jimmy Page is ridiculous to the tenth power.
@@kenperk9854 he wasn’t saying she’s as good... also page isn’t the greatest ever. He’s a good guitarist who managed to be in a great band. Not dissing him but let’s not pretend it’s a crime to compare other guitarists to him.
Awwwwww yeahhhh, Badasss women of rock!!! Watch Heart live, you will love it. Spot on Andy, the best songs come from strong emotions. These women paved the way, I'm so happy you're listening. There are so many gems by these beauties. Close your eyes and pick any one, brilliance. Heart, Suzi Quatro, Pat Benatar, Joan Jett, Lita Ford, Carly Simon, Carole King, Stevie Nicks, stellar badass women of rock
Had 2nd row seats to their show way back in college. Brought my roommate's 35SLR camera with a huge telephoto lens. Took a bunch of pics, including some of Nancy. She musta noticed, as when she was walking off the stage at the end, she turned to me, made the 'taking a pic' pose, and winked. I almost melted. That was so fun.
I'd love to see that pic. denniswhit63@gmail.com if you can please
Awww such a great story! Such a Nancy thing to do ❤️
I saw Heart back in 2008 when they opened for Journey. Ann Wilson started the show by apologizing because she was nursing a sore throat and might not hit the notes right, but she wanted to come out and perform instead of cancel. Not only did she not miss a single note, she blew the house down. Of the three bands I saw that night (it was a triple bill with Cheap Trick, Heart and Journey), Heart was definitely the highlight (and I'm a massive Journey fan).
I saw the same tour in Tampa😎
Hi saw that tour and you’re right out of those three bands heart kicked ass all night the other ones weren’t bad but Hart was phenomenal
I saw Heart with Cheap Trick, Journey.....and Ted Nugent in 1978.
@@plicdat5474 I saw it in Orange Beach.
I saw that tour too and I was amazed at all that time later her voice was still as powerful and almost as good it was 30 years before that damn that woman can sing!!
Ann is a incredible singer. Nancy is a under rated guitarist. Heart is a very fun band in concert.
Ann (brunette), is the lead vocalist, and Nancy the younger sister, is one of the guitarists. It's definitely an "S" for me...
A&A
Also Nancy, back up vocals and lead on a few tracks.
You know, I came of age in the 70's, and the majority of the music you present is the same music my friends and I had blasting out of our home stereos, car stereos, helping us survive teenage angst. And we took it all for granted! We thought all music was this complex, this layered, this rich and structured. Of course all musicians were classically trained -- it was a given. The 70's was an incredible decade of music that came and went, never to be replicated. But because of all the reasons just listed, those songs will live forever.
Ann Wilson sings, Nancy Wilson acoustic guitar. The guys in the band are rockin the elec guitar, bass, and drums.... Rock on!!! 😎
If you have not yet seen these gals do Stairway to Heaven at The Kennedy Center Honors for Led Zeppelin with JPJ, Robert and Jimmy in the audience and Jason Bonham on drums, I don't think you really need to ask what your next Heart reaction should be.
They actually did that one, it's in one of their drunk reactions. Definitely check it out, it's one of their best videos.
This was BEYOND awesome. Ck it out....
Yessssss- with the video- WATCH and listen!
Finally looping back to some HEART!! We loved getting to really give this track a listen! Where do we go next with them?! 🙌🏻🔥
Please react to "Magic Man"!
Magic Man, probably my favorite Ann Wilson vocal.
Anne Wilson has a clarion voice. So good.
Andy and Alex
Deep Purple's Fireball review
Is now overdue
(January is Haiku month, isn’t it? At least I got the memo.)
Magic Man, Dreamboat Annie, Crazy on You and and Love Alive. By the way, I firmly believe Lzzy Hale from Hslestorm is Ann Wilson’s secret love child...she is the only woman who comes anywhere close to Ann’s power and range...and Halestorm has done covers of Heart songs and Lzzy kills the vocals (even Live)
Roger Fisher's guitar work is so tasteful on this track.
Everything he plays is so well placed and perfect!
Hey guys, just a heads up... those cool leads and electric rhythm that embodied the song were "Roger Fisher".
Nancy Wilson played mostly rhythm using acoustic guitar on Barracuda and also sang backup harmonies with her sister, Ann. She could also play classic and flamenco styles as well as the rock and roll.
She's ranked as one of the greatest female guitarists of all time by Gibson guitars!
Great song... still sounds tough today!
Ann Wilson, the greatest voice in Rock N Roll. Crazy On You will also melt your ice cubes.
Heart - Heartless, Straight On, Little Queen, Alone, These Dreams
Add Crazy On You
@@michaelbaucom4019 They did it a while ago
"Little Queen" is hot hot fire.
Little Queen is so much better than most of the "radio hits" that most people suggest.
@@odemusvonkilhausen That unison vocal/guitar/bass riff in the chorus has more balls than a whole lot of music written by dudes.
They've got to do the live version from California Jam II. They've GOT to.
Ann and Nancy played Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Center Honors in tribute to Led Zeppelin. Ann made Robert Plant cry with her rendition. Heart is always tasteful and classy.
Ann and Nancy Wilson and their Band know how to "Kick It Out".(check out that song, next)...Knew you would love it, thanks for your reaction...I've met some Barracuda's in my day... this song exemplifies tough, talented Women!!💜
Heart" at this time was not just Ann and Nancy Wilson. Heart was formed by brothers Mike and Roger Fisher along with Steve Fossen (rhythm guitar) in Seattle without the sisters. Ann was in love with Mike and when he left the US to live in Vancouver Canada to escape the Vietnam draft Ann joined him and Roger did as well. Steve came up later and Nancy joined the band much later. Nancy and Roger Fisher also became an item so the two sisters and two brothers were lovers at the time.
There would have been no "Heart" and no rock hits without Mike and especially Roger. Roger - not Nancy - was the major guitar player and came up with the great riffs and played lead guitar for the rock hits they had. The great riff for this song was created by Roger - not Nancy - and of course Roger played lead guitar on the other songs as well.
My friend Barry Samuels (a booking agent who also became Nick Gilder's manager) was the person Mike called with what was claimed to be the band's last dime for help as the band was going nowhere at the time. Barry gave them their first break and was responsible for their early success as a band.
The members of Heart pretended they were Canadian even after they had a couple of hits like Magic Man (written about Mike Fisher by Ann) and Barracuda. They did this because of the "alleged" illegality of some of them being in Canada without immigration or work permits as well as benefiting from the "Canadian Content" rules for radio and television at the time.
Ann and Nancy have dishonestly taken credit for the band's success and totally re-written history with their false and self serving narrative. You won't hear a peep from either of them about Roger or Mike or the early recordings and successes in Vancouver Canada that propelled them to stardom. Discussing the band "Heart" and their early rock hits without mentioning Roger Fisher does huge disservice to Roger and it is outrageous that Nancy tries to take credit for HIS amazing creativity and playing and so many people believe that lie.
The electric guitar was Roger Fisher (main lead) and Howard Leese (rhythm and second lead, synths). Nancy Wilson played rhythm acoustic guitar (she also played some electric guitar and mandolin on other tracks). Ann Wilson was killing the vocals. Michael DeRosier on drums and Steve Fossen on bass round out the line up.
Everyone forgets " Even it Up" by these guys (girls).
YESSSS! Great song!
And, she DID...PLAY...on that one! Better than some men, imho.
Anything from Dreamboat Annie would be a great pick for your next Heart selection. My favorites are Magic Man, Dog & The Butterfly, Dreamboat Annie, Crazy On You. Thanks you two for doing this great song & doing the audio version instead of the live. Don't know if you have ever heard this one before or not, but try their cover of Led Zeppelin Stairway To Heaven. They performed this live at the Kennedy Center Honors for Led Zeppelin's induction concert with Led Zeppelin in the audiance. It is not perfect like the original but they do it definate justice, & John Bonham's son Jason is on the drums for this performance. Stay safe & stay strong in this new year you two!
In the mid-70s I went to my 1st big city high-end stereo shop. I wanted to listen to MacIntosh electronics and speakers. The salesman smiled and put on Dreamboat Annie. Wonderful production values on that album. (Wonderful sound from Macintosh equipment also.)
God, I love Nancy’s acoustic intro to “Crazy On You”
That performance is breathtaking. They got a standing ovation not only from the audience but an enthusiastic one from Robert, Jimmy and John Paul as well.
They did that one on their 20k drunk reaction video. Look it up on the Videos part of their home page. Just click on the logo then videos and scroll down. Enjoy!!
Ann Wilson - lead vocals
Nancy Wilson - acoustic guitar
Roger Fisher - lead guitar
Howard Leese - lead guitar; mellotron
Steve Fossen - bass
Michael DeRosier - drums
What a FREAKING BAND! Too bad the gals destroyed it. Heart wasn't Heart after that. Even the sisters were unhappy about their 80s stuff.
Nancy Wilson use to be married to Cameron Crowe the screenwriter/director/producer/etc, early on Crowe was a journalist for Rolling Stone, got to travel with Zeppelin, that experience bore fruit years later with the movie Almost Famous, which if you have not seen it is a simply fantastic movie that really captures the 70s rock n roll gestalt, sucks you in and makes you feel it.
Magic Man is worth a listen, and there is live performances from back in the day of both Crazy on You and Barracuda that are worth a look if only for the chance to see these girls rocking out in their prime.
Was Cameron Crowe one of the journalists from Rolling Stone that always shat on whatever Zeppelin did? That would be interesting if true, since Nancy loved Zeppelin so much. And if he wasn’t, that’s also interesting, because every review I’ve read about Zeppelin during their run from Rolling Stone was negative.....and usually even venomous.
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 Here you go: www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/the-durable-led-zeppelin-36209/
Nancy appeared in Fast Times at Ridgemont High which Crowe wrote. She was the hot girl in the car laughing at Brad in the pirate outfit.
@@jrsieger Holy crap!! She was! I saw that movie when it came out. Knew Heart...have seen the movie a few times over the years, but never realized that was NW. Thanks for the knowledge drop.
And now you know why Heart was chosen to do the Stairway to Heaven tribute to Led Zeppelin at their Kennedy Center induction. If you haven't seen that, you must. Watching the band's faces as they watch Heart's performance brings tears every time. Ann and Nancy Wilson, sisters. Trailblazers, and still great. Glad you appreciate them.
You guys would be bewildered watching Nancy play guitar. Even the great Jerry Cantrel said “my fingers were bleeding and Nancy was still playing...hands of granite”
Thanks for starting my week off with a great pick and review. "Magic Man" is another ridiculously good song from them. It has harmonies that maybe only sisters cam maintain and some great lyrics too. You know from the lyrics it came from real experience.
"Dreamboat Annie" and "Dog and Butterfly are quieter sauce from Heart.
Dreamboat Annie was huge back in the day, and classic rock stations (yes, remember radio?) still have it on their playlists. It's as classic as you can get.
Im 57 and still prefer alittle. ... Violence in my music but...i love dog n butterfly ect. I play that on a loop. Lol
Next songs by Heart: 'Love Alive' and 'Mistral Wind'.
I'd add in Sing Child. You get a nice Ann Wilson flute solo on the version from the Dreamboat Annie album. If you do the version from the Dreamboat Annie Live concert, you get Ann's flute solo, Nancy on harmonica, and also the Stockholm String section (plus you get to watch them).
"Love Alive" has been sorely underrated. It is really a great song, but . . .
And "Kick It Out"!
Love alive is a great song. Really shows off Ann's vocals really well, and it just takes you on a journey. have you heard the demo version of it? awesome.
Somewhere I watched a video of a girl galloping on a horse and jumping fences with this song in the background. Ever since I saw that visual I can’t think of anything else when I hear this song. Still one of my all time favorites!
Ann Wilson is so badass.. the live vid.. although not neccessarily matching up good is incredible watching her.. She is bewitching watching those videos during same show.. Crazy on You and Magic Man and this song. Lots of subtle gestures AND THAT VOICE!!
I saw them in concert Summer 2019 with my 25 year old daughter. Joan Jett opened. They DID play Stairway to Heaven. Was a great show!!!!
I
I saw that tour as well. They were amazing.
Greatest female voice in rock...chills baby!
Nancy played acoustic guitar and sang backup. Roger Fisher is the guitar wizard here. Howard Leese played keyboards and rhythm guitar.
A guitar wizard indeed he was!!
@music-two-my-ears they get NO credit. If the rolls were reversed, the feminazis would have been marching in the streets at the sexism. Theres an oldie but goodie!😁
Ann Wilson: Lead Vocal
Nancy Wilson: Acoustic Guitar
Roger Fisher: Lead Guitar
Howard Leese: Lead Guitar, Mellotron
Michael Derosier: Drums
Steve Fossen: Bass
That groove is highly syncopated....that kind of sound is a dopamine release to me.
That's a great way to describe what this song does. A dopamine release!
About 25 years ago, in the early '90s, I was a volunteer for the City of Woodinville for their Fourth of July and Christmas celebrations. At the end of the year, they held a party for us where awards and certificates were handed out. The Parks and Recreation manager went to school with Roger Fisher and he invited him to play a surprise solo set for us. It lasted about an hour and he played Heart songs along with some classic rock and roll. Afterwards, he took the time to come and visit every table and talk with us and shake our hands for our work. He was nice and seemed genuinely interested in what we did for the city. Wish they would have had cell phone cameras back then, would loved to have taken a picture with him.
REO Roll with the changes please.
The live version.
Live version of Ridin the Storm Out is one of their best.
Also one of my favorite album titles of all time...
You can tune piano but you can't tuna fish, great lp
@@sharky6128 That whole album is outstanding. It takes me to that happy place.
Agree 100%
Nancy does not get the credit she deserves hands down best quitarist
I have seen them on concert and Nancy is a awesome guitarist!
Not that difficult parts.Its the showbiz.
Ani DiFranco belongs in that conversation.
Straight on or Kick it Out...So many good ones
I saw Heart in 1981...along with Ian Hunter. Best Concert ever, from both groups.
I will be 60 in December 2021, and Barracuda is my favorite rock song of all time.. .and I grew up with it from the beatles/stones/etc onward.
Hard rock and powerful, crystal clear vocals. What else could you possibly desire?
S tier.
Clear vocals? Up until today I had no idea what they were saying except for “and when the real thing don’t do the trick you better make up something quick“
Ladies & Gents, this is why Rock’n’Roll needs more female rockers.
Luckily, we've always had them.
NANCY IS greate for a girl but She is extremly limited with a guitar.
@@kenperk9854 🤣
That guitar 🎸 riff sounds like an angry Rhino 🦏 rushing along galloping. It’s just a stomping Rhythm! By Roger Fisher!
And the main vocals by Ann Wilson with great backing vocals by Nancy Wilson. The music was made by Fisher and the lyrics were written by Ann. A perfect collaboration!
A Great Hard Rock classic!
I’m pleased you like it like millions of us fans do.
👏🏻🎸😎
Flashin way back to Catawba College 1978 - Love when the boys get around to my all time favorite Dorm room rocker - Barricuda by HEART - Vocals,Drums,Guitars...It's all there!
I first heard 'Barracuda' in the summer of 1977. I was 15 years old, and I was lying in my bed late at night after midnight. The DJ on KMET Los Angeles comes on and says he's got a new song from Heart to play. That song was Barracuda, before it was even released to the public. I've loved the song ever since that first listen.
Magic Man is a must!
Roger Fischer on lead guitar. Nancy is a badass player as well. Go with “Magic Man” next!
I'm looking forward to either Anne or Nancy seeing this and responding. It's about time that women in rock got the respect they've deserved. Giants. Legends. Take your pick for the adjective but Heart is right up there.
Got to see Nancy Wilson live a few months ago with her solo touring group, the Tripsitters, and believe you me -- in her mid 70s, she can ABSOLUTELY still belt it as great as she ever did. Killer show.
Hey guys I'm A 54 year old man you've really brought back so many memories of my life with songs I love how you guys are great friends stay that way!!!!! No matter what I lost touch with my friend I grew up with over the last year I've lost family my house and my dog a black lab I had for 14 years in the same week I lost so much and watching you guys I'm so happy to see a friendship that's real thanks for what you do my name is Rick I live in Pittsburgh PA
Great pick, quick note - everything you're loving about the guitar here is Roger Fisher, not Nancy Wilson. At this point Nancy only played acoustic, and despite the marketing at this point, Heart were very much a band. It wasn't until long after Roger was gone that it started to be more pushed as Ann and Nancy and a band.
ALL ELECTRIC GUITARS are played By the guys in the band. Nancy was good on acoustics.
Magic Man _ Banger
Dog and Butterfly_ Mellow
Crazy on You _ Banger
Little Queen - Banger
How can I Refuse_ Mellow
So true. People always think Heart is a girl band. They also think Nancy plays all the guitar parts. Wrong and Wrong!!
Magic Man if you havent done it yet.
Saw Heart just a few years ago, and they STILL rock! I asked my teenage daughter, who was at the concert with us, how old she though the sisters were. Answer: "30s?" They were in their 50s at the time.
70's now.
@@MsWarriordiva Yes, and my "teenage daughter" is now 30
These chicks ROCKED my first concert was Zeppelin and Heart became lifelong fan of both bands I was 8 it changed my life
As a lifelong horse person, the rhythm of the guitar line sounds to me like a runaway horse going full tilt. It's such a banger. I could listen to the guitar and rhythm all afternoon.
Magic Man or their full cover of Stairway to Heaven at Kennedy Center Honors in front of Robert Plant, Jimmy Paige, and John Paul Jones. Robert was moved to tears. Ann is in her 60s and her voice was still great. Heart used to open for Led Zep. Now you know why.
They did Heart Stairway to Heaven about a year ago under Drunk Reactions! George Thorogood / Heart / Focus and Tool check it out!
@@sfcub-Bill thanks!
This song was a result of Ann Wilson's rage at their record company.
Specifically at a PR guy who released promo material suggesting she and her sister were in an incestuous lesbian relationship. The band left Mushroom Records over it.
@@edwardlongshanks827 Yeah, a crap move. I think they were also the ones that were always on her case about her weight.
And lots of listens to achilles last stand....
@@sammack1564 Funny I remember in a record shop oneday this came on and in the first 15 seconds or so I thought Wow I'm listening to a song here that sounds quite similar to Achilles last stand ! Aha ! Anyway I was rather impressed with what they did here.It was just released that day and I bought the album I think.
I played in a band when I was a junior in high school, and the singer was a beautiful girl in college with a dynamite voice and an overall love dynamic. I was smitten. She sang "Barracuda" like a prescient goddess of undeniable beauty.
One of the best female Rock vocalists ever.
I used to play this and many other Heart songs back in the late 70's. It was a little challenging since I am/was a keyboard player. The solution? I put a distortion box on my Rhodes piano. We did five tracks from Dreamboat Annie, including the deep cut "Sing Child."
I know you guys are not into 80's material, but Hearts "Alone" has one of the greatest female studio vocals ever recorded. And what is really amazing is that it doesn't even come close to Ann's live renditions, especially the live acoustic version.
The Wilson sisters from Seattle. Ann is a great guitar player and Nancy's voice is incredible. So many great songs by them. Seattle's music scene has been fabulous, for generations.
saw Heart in concert a few years ago and Ann can still hit those high notes and Nancy can still play the heck out of the guitar!!!
Saw them in concert in the late 70’s, about 3 rows back from the stage. OMG- just fantastic. Plus they were both hot looking back then!!!
Saw them round about '79. Opening act was the Ian Hunter/Mick Ronson band. Awesome show from beginning to end. Ann is even better live.
If someone didn't already mention it - the guitar is run through a flanger pedal. The high "sparkly" sound is done by playing the string harmonics. The strings aren't pressed down, but they're lightly touched at specific points on the neck which cause them to harmonically resonate.
SING CHILD SING is another banger from the 70's HEART that y'all should oughta listen to. The instrumentals are sick
Heart performing stairway live for led zeppelin is amazing .. one of the greatest voices in Rock
"Porpoise" is Ann's Nickname for Nancy. "The porpoise said dive down, deep down, deeper than you". This is a quintessential "get mad, and, get even" situations. Saw them in '79
So jealous that you saw them in '79 and I never had the pleasure!
@@quarterfriedwithdirtyrice8108 "The Day Of Rock And Roll" in New Orleans that year also included Boston, Van Halen, Blue Oyster Cult, and Nazareth, with Sammy Hagar, and TKO as well. a 12 hour concert.
@@michaelyork4554 OMG now you are just rubbing salt into the wound! 😢 Not only did I miss out on seeing all of those amazing bands but I've never even been to New Orleans! I've always wanted to visit to experience the legendary people, music, and food scene but have never managed to make it happen (yet). Now I'm even more jealous...❤
@@quarterfriedwithdirtyrice8108 I have seen many other bands as well, I was supposed to see Zeppelin, but they cancelled when Robert Plant's Son died, and I was set to see Pink Floyd on the Animals Tour and they cancelled. I haven't been to New Orleans in years, but I imagine it's mostly shut down now, I don't know if there will ever be another Mardi Gras Parade or not.
I don’t want to be a jerk but the actual lyrics are “the porpoise said dive down deep to save my head, you.....I think that you got the blues...to.... Regardless, Ann & Nancy are masters of their craft and A & A can do no wrong showcasing all of their music!
Magic man. The jam for sure!
Incredibly tight band. If you noticed the guitar solo, it’s almost
entirely made up of harmonics and whammy bar. I saw them in
1977 promoting this record. They opened with Dream of the Archer
standing around a real Bon fire.🔥
Awesome! You finally got to Heart! Lots of splendid goodness here... Heartless, Straight On, Love Alive, Mistral Wind, Dog & Butterfly, Even It Up, etc. etc. etc. Enjoy and dive deep!
I saw them in 86...and when they started this song the place really started thumpin!

The original band lineup was musically perfect. Roger Fisher created some insane guitar riffs. Michael Derosier is one of my favorite drummers. Very “Bonzo”. Check out their cover of Rock and Roll from the Greatest Hits Live album.
I hear he was the pacesetter for them. They had to keep up! He's killing it here!
@@marybethmcknightpotts6049 very much so.
Total agreement with Magic Man , Straight On but I love the song “Heartless
"Heartless" strays into jazz-blues and it is a TRIIIIIP!
Another great female singer is Chrissy Hynde from The Pretenders. Middle of the Road is a kick-ass track.
❤❤❤❤ Love these hard rock sisters! My top favorite rock band👍 under Zeppelin 👍🤩⚘
Roger Fisher AND Howard Leese both fed off of each other doing 2 guitar leads at times (mixed in with Howard playing both guitar, and keyboards/Synth where appropriate ...) not to take anything away from Nancy who is a huge part of the Rhythm section and vocals. Heart’s first 4 albums are the most solid rock albums ever made.... until Heart entered CBS’s pop school and started pumping out mainstream hits, they were a force to be reckoned with. Great job on the vid
Absolutely!
Here a banger there a banger, everywhere a banger banger! They are the QUEENS of rock! Ann's voice is beyond compare, and I believe Nancy's one of the best female guitar players ever. To this day they are killin it, they are respected by so many musicians it's unreal. I saw Nine Inch Nails in Vegas and they joined them on stage, blew my mind. The "Stairway to Heaven" Kennedy center performance is a life changer, I know it's not their work but it shows Ann and Nancy's talent off very well!
She was a really good acoustic guitarist.
@@kenperk9854 Still is, I read an article about Dave Grohl and he was talking about hanging out at Ann's house to the wee hours playing with Nancy and she was playing these incredible riffs and he said he couldn't keep up his fingers almost started bleeding. :)
Saw Heart a few years ago, amazing show. The encore? 15 minutes of Led Zepplin covers. Yes, they still rock so hard.
"It felt like Zeppelin drums..." Never made that connection before after a MILLION listens; cool observation Alex totally spot on!
I remember an interview where Nancy said that the drum track was Achilles Last Stand. I have listened to both songs and it doesn't sync to me either. But I do remember her saying it. Could be done at a different speed but I still can't match the drums either.
I heard a story from way back that this was the bands homage to led zeppelin
I loved this song when I first heard it when I was your age...20......in 1977. I'm 63 now. Thanks for making me feel 20 again with your reactions !! Steve Hooker in North Carolina
OMG I hope you see this message. Now you have heard this from Heart. A 19 yr old girl tears it up also. Her name is Moriah Formica. It's amazing!!
I often use this as one of my examples of how to record drums. They are crisp AF on this track and balanced to perfection.
"Love Alive" and "Mistral Wind" are Heart masterpieces.
Love Alive is a real gem.
Chris Cornell from Soundgarden said that he absolutely adored her voice xxx🧡🧡🧡❤️🎼🎸
Ann and Chris were dear friends , too. ,
Ann Wilson..... Best female singer in rock.
Heart actually did do a version of stairway to heaven in an honor to Lead Zeppelin. It brought an aging Jimmie page to tears in the audience.
