We suffered heartbreaks during the 60s, 70s, and 80s but the incredible variety of great music helped us cope and get us through those tumultuous times.
This song still makes me smile. For the 50 years of my life that my Dad was here, virtually every carpentry or 'working in the yard' project had an Oldies soundtrack. We'd often try to stump each other, asking: "Quick...who is it?!?" This was one of the ones that he'd always ask me. Lost my Dad in October 2018. At the time, I had just started building my new recording studio in the home my Tina and I had just bought. It the very first carpentry project of my life without him. Used all our tools, the skills he taught me...and all this great music!
Very cool ! 😎 My dad thought it was funny that I loved the oldies from his era - the fifties! I still dig on me some fifties from time to time in remembrance.
I played the "quick, who is it?" game in the car with my sons when they were little. ALWAYS when it was Elvis Presley. That way they always knew the answer. Acceptable response was either "Elvis" or "The King"!!
Just being 10 years young then to enjoy my 5 cent candy bars, 10 cent sodas, 10 cent Hostess fruit pies, 10 cent Frito's, Dorito's, Lays potato chips gives me a grin of the America we all still alive once knew, never to return. 2022 go to hell!
@@truelies3690 I totally agree with you , I grew up as a teenager in the 70s , age 13 in 1970 so I was a teenager thru the greatest decade ever . Wish I had a time machine to go back .. ☮✌

One of the great carefree songs of the 1970's and a by a great talented band of musicians. Those days of the Real music and singers. Authentic and realistic yet classic.
My sister was 11 years older than me, I was 5, she ditched school and took me with her boyfriend to the beach and this song was on the radio. I can still see her and how beautiful she was. Miss you Carol Ann.
Love this song I remember being six in the summer of 1970. Being at the Toronto Exhibition with my uncle. He took me on a ride and this song was playing on the ride. I remember that memory because of this song. Music is a wonderful thing.
This song was popular during my tour in Vietnam, it was played on AFVN radio. It reminds me of driving a truck and seeing a "buddy" (in the army, everyone is your buddy) walking on the side of the road. No matter what the weather, you stopped and picked up the buddy. Just one of the good memories of Vietnam.
Love this song, especially the vocal harmonies in the chorus. The piano bridge is very original. The lead singer (Trevor Brice) is a very expressive fellow with a great voice.
One of those popular songs that sticks with you, and you never forget it. Ride, Ride, Ride, Hitchin' a Ride! Simple lyrics and a great sound. Thanks for sharing the video!
I grew up in the 70s and 80s but still had the pleasure of music such as this . Music was a huge part of our family . I had 2 older brothers and they listened to different types of music so i got 2 different worlds, plus my Mom and extended family . Life and music was amazing back then . I miss it and wish my kids and grandkids could experience such a great time
When this song was on the radio, it was a cheap little pocket 2 transistor AM radio I had as the only means of listening to music, but that little thing was my key to the outside world. It sounds much better on the better audio equipment I have now but what I wouldn't give to be listening to that song again with a pair of 13 year old ears with that little pocket radio.
Me too. I was 13 and a friend gave me a 6 transistor radio that ran in 9 volt batteries in December of 1969. Prior to that I would sneak and listen to music on my step father's radio when he and my mother went out to the store etc. I wasn't allowed to listen to rock and roll at the time. After my stepfather moved out I could listen to what I wanted. I miss those days.
Back in 1970 an 20 years old me an my buddy hitch a ride we were very far from home a station wagon stop an the only place was lay at the with our mountain bags they brought us basically home what nice years that was never to come again
For their next release "Hitchin' a Ride", they added keyboardist Barry Landeman (born 25 October 1947, Woodbridge, Suffolk, England), formerly of Kippington Lodge, to the group. "Hitchin' A Ride", written by Peter Callander and Mitch Murray, gave them a second million-selling hit,[3] reaching No. 16 in the UK (January 1970), No. 1 for two weeks each on Chicago radio stations WCFL (May 1970) and WLS (June 1970), No. 5 on the Hot 100 (June-July 1970), and No. 3 in Canada.[4] From Wikipedia article I did not know these guys were English when we heard it in the radio back in 1970!
There was a time when hitching a ride was an accepted and mostly safe mode of travel. Worked in 1969 to take me from Little Rock, AR to just outside of Bethel, NY to go to a concert event. Getting back 4 days later was a longer ride than the journey up there but would not trade those memories for anything.
Jerry sounds to me like you attended one of the Greatest events in History, Woodstock 👍😎 I bet you have some stories to tell your Grand children, those were the days my friend. Peace✌
I remember my uncle took me to Toronto Ex in 1971. I was 6 years old. We went on this ride and this song was playing. I remember this so well because this song was playing. Amazing what you remember because of music.
Great classic rock and roll song. Takes me back to simpler times, better times in many ways, with good friends,. And the biggest thing is we got along just fine without cell phones and computers. 😃
Hitched many a ride in my teenage years. Really didn't care where I wound up . Always had my transistor radio with me. Complete with the one ear phone/plug. Too bad you gotta get older. I tell my wife I will grow older but I won't grow up!!!
A big part of the band and song (which is usually overlooked) is the piano player who also play's a recorder (Flute). He also plays the harpsichord on their earlier hit - Early in the Morning.
1:33 and beyond reminds me of "Venus". This is my first time hearing this song. I wasn't born then. But l enjoy and appreciate old music. Thanks for posting.
yes, that's what I thought too. nice day by persephone's bees brought me here. i always thought the part near the end sounded like lady madonna. then they referenced this song.
The lead and background vocals are simply stunning. Ah, the naivety of a bygone era... This group should've and could've been alot bigger than they became. Song just makes ya happy.
I hitch hiked from Greenwood MS. to Pierre, South Dakota in the dead of Winter in 1972. I almost froze to death. 😛 Yea that was the dumbest thing I ever did. Hahaha This song kept playing in my head!! 😛
Sometimes it’s the simple things. This isn’t a difficult song to play. The solos are easy too. The vocal harmonies are amazing. Just a great song. You don’t necessarily need eruption to have a great song (although that one is good too).
I distinctly remember standing in my family’s kitchen and hearing this song playing on the adjacent living room TV. I looked over and watched. Not sure if this was the exact video but it’s an ancient memory from back when I was nine. Never heard the song much back in those days other than that one time
Born in 1962 and at the age of 8 I remember this great song! I was so lucky to be a kid during this time period!!! How old were you when this came out?
When I was a kid--used to lie in bed at night holding the old AM radio listening to WLS Chicago ( I live in south Georgia) and they played this song often
I was at a slumber party with friends listening to this song when it came out, remember bobbing for apples, it must have been a Halloween party. A groovy catchy tune! 🎶♥️

I grew up in 60's and 70's what a wonderful time to be young❤
Me too. No better time 😂
You must be a Generation X kid, I am! I was born June 18,1967. Hello from Tyler Texas!
I hitched around Europe twice, 3 months each, in 68 and 71. Absolutely wonderful! We have lost so much since then.
I wouldn’t trade growing up in the 60’s and 70’s for any other time period it was a wonderful time to be a kid…
It was a fun wonderful time and so innocent and feel good
❤ so very true its was magic ❤
You nailed it 🎉
But if you were a youngster now you wouldn't know any difference.

@@dannylee1987 Me too, 13 in 1970. Definitely agree!
A fascinating take on our lives, ie. growing up in the '60s and '70s.
The vocal harmonies from the 70's bands were so pure & years before autotuning.
Agreed, the harmonies in the 60's also : Beatles, Hollies, Beach Boys etc
thats right can't stand modern music for that reason its all beep bop computer music now
This was talent
Anything beats that crap they call music today..Long live the 70s..🎸🎤🎧
Not true!! John Lennon slowed or upped the record speed to change the pitch in his voice. Many other did this too. So in a way they did have auto tuning !!

As most songs of the era do.
Remembering those great old days of being a bum and having nothing.
Thank you God for giving me the 60's and the 70's.. What a great time it was..
What will kids of today have to watch and cherish years later? NOTHING. Glad to be old now and young back then
From what I see in the news/TV. Don't think they'll make old age
@@davidmulkey8657I agree. Though at 61years old I refuse to be "OLD".
Picked up my new ‘70 Nova SS. As I pulled out of the dealership I turned on the radio and there was “Hitchin’ A Ride”.

It reminds me of driving a truck and seeing a "buddy" (in the army, everyone is your buddy) walking on the side of the road. No matter what the weather, you stopped and picked up the buddy. Just one of the good memories of Vietnam.
Be thankful you were in a place where you could listen to the radio. Most of our radio was from a PRC25.
I was listening to a story about a US Vietnam War soldier who referred to his buddies as "comrades" and I was like "Argh! Who tf wrote this crap?"
You Can't Beat The Music From The 70s ! That Was Real music !
I agree. I wish I could go back to the 70s.
Don't we all!@@QueenSnowPea
80s and 90s were good too
Magnificent Masterpiece from Master Musicians, top of the line solid gold standard of excellence, a favorite for over 50 years
Love this song, especially the vocal harmonies in the chorus. The piano bridge is very original. The lead singer (Trevor Brice) is a very expressive fellow with a great voice.
Riding in the backseat of my mom's Rambler at 6 years old, jamming to this song! Ah, 1970!
Whats a Rambler? LOL, AMC forever!!
Sounds really nice 😎
Thanks for sharing childhood memories!
6 years old 1970? Me too! Listening to this song and inhaling mom and dads cigarette smoke driving down the road. 😜
Omg! Same here! 5 years old
One of those popular songs that sticks with you, and you never forget it. Ride, Ride, Ride, Hitchin' a Ride! Simple lyrics and a great sound. Thanks for sharing the video!
That's true. Haven't heard it since 1972 or 73, remember each and every line.
I remember riding in the car with the family, and this song would come on the am radio...Even as a kid, I knew a great upbeat song.
Me too! I sat in the backseat of my mom's Rambler, listening to this song, Palisades Park, & other classics! Good times!
Great song!!!......From my wedding year 1970, and Yes I still am married to the same "Hot Blond Chick"............54+ years!!!!!!!
Great song love it. I love that PIANO BREAK. Reminds me of the song ( VENUS ) by THE SHOCKING BLUE ) ..Love it.
The very best music. You don’t hear anything like that in today’s music
Love this tune. Not many pop songs use recorders as instruments.
I wish there was more music like this now! I can actually understand the words!
🤣❤️👍👍

1970, the first year I really started listening to the radio. This was one of the songs that stir that memory. A great year for music.

Song takes me back to a time when music was nicer. Love this song.
What do you have against "Wet-Ass Pussy?" ☹️😤
Best music period ever-1962-1980! Change my mind.
1970 stationed in Germany, heard this song on the radio in my V.W. while crossing border into Holland, such a wonderful memory!!
Just a happy song! Always loved it.
I love this song and seeing the great band who sings it makes the song double enjoying!! :-)
This song was cranking on my stereo as I drove past a hitchhiker.👍
What an absolute jewel of a song! Thanks for the upload!
Back in 1970 an 20 years old me an my buddy hitch a ride we were very far from home a station wagon stop an the only place was lay at the with our mountain bags they brought us basically home what nice years that was never to come again

were cousins and not " foreigners ". Those days are almost gone.

I am still listening to the 60 and 70 music all day long. Still dance like crazy.
My dad loved this played it all the time he passed with cancer listen always go back when I was a kid listening to this in his car
Great song and takes me back to my university days of playing snooker, drinking in the bar, playing rugby and chasin' women.
1:33 and beyond reminds me of "Venus". This is my first time hearing this song. I wasn't born then. But l enjoy and appreciate old music. Thanks for posting.
Yeah, into "You got me on a mountain top".
Or a bit like Lady Madonna at times..But I agree with you as well....But I suspect lots of people copied Rod Argent...and still does.

I don't want ANY 70's song to end!
❤️ this 1970s song too
That recorder at the beginning. Simple and epic.
Nationwide Insurance used this for a jingle in the early 1970’s.
One of my absolute favorites ❤
love it, brings back lot of great memories 👍
Sometimes it’s the simple things. This isn’t a difficult song to play. The solos are easy too. The vocal harmonies are amazing. Just a great song. You don’t necessarily need eruption to have a great song (although that one is good too).
I Love this Song! The Lead singer Reminds Me of Steve Perry! I sure Miss the 70's! Glad I was there!

So many one-hit wonders around 1970.
Vaniry Fare were not one hit wonders
Great video of a Magnificent Masterpiece
Born in 1962 and at the age of 8 I remember this great song! I was so lucky to be a kid during this time period!!!
How old were you when this came out?
same- 122462.
I was about 9 years old when I first heard this song. They were playing it in Macy's in New York city. I liked it then and still like it to date.
When I was a kid--used to lie in bed at night holding the old AM radio listening to WLS Chicago ( I live in south Georgia) and they played this song often
I did much the same in Texas...WLS and KMOA
I too live in the Chicago area and I remember back then there was a rival station WCFL.
brings back so many great memories of a better place and time crusing main street listing to great music as this
Love this song makes me happy reminds me of Now & Then one of my favorite movies!!
Was around 12 when this was out. Very catchy song.
The 60’s and 70’s music ruled. Nothing comes close today.
2020 & forever!
What great memories! I hitchhiked all lot in the early 70’s some good rides and some bad but so miss those days.
I was at a slumber party with friends listening to this song when it came out, remember bobbing for apples, it must have been a Halloween party. A groovy catchy tune! 🎶♥️
We did hitch a ride back then. Great time to grow up 60's 70's 80's
Man, where is stuff like this today.
I need a time machine!
I could listen to songs like this that bring back a lot of good memories anytime of the day. Good tunes.
As a boomer, I remember hitchhiking all over. Was a different time, and so much better
I sure loved Paul Williams when I was a kid in the 1970's. He was everywhere, and very popular for his great songwriting!! Great times!
Its 2024 and I still love listening to music from the best era in time. ❤
I remember this song back in the 1970s when I was a teenager in Canton in Baltimore Maryland. And listen to it on the radio.
