Go Jo Jo! What a scorching set. P.S. You can't be a '70s hard rock guitarist without the electric blue satin trousers! Even Jay Ferguson's leopard pants have to take a back seat to those threads.
ya think of Dr Hook these days, and ya think lol, joke band... but then you watch these guys play live and realize they are all really good musicians and actively change song structure at the drop of a hat, takes a boat load of talent and faith in the band to even attempt that and these dudes pulled it off flawlessly.
Leo Sayer - Tomorrow that voice rocks what a voice. Best performance of the night. This song should be re-released for 2024, especially in hard times when humanity could do a spiritual uplift right now. Great show. Great bands.
I wish there was a full concert video of Dr. Hook. they were such an amazing band. Super underrated musicians as well. Daaaaamn, Dennis was lit for this show. LOL
It seems that they were pretty baked in just about all of their shows from that era. There are some clips of them performing on Shel Silverstein's houseboat where they all look pretty wasted, but their singing and harmonies are still spot on and gorgeous. Wild and crazy times.
It lived up to expectations and even more. This is Dr.Hook at their very best again, the way they sang together is just awesome. I was very excited about "The Loneliest People In The World", that was just great , the music, the band and the vocals harmony - Nobody does it better then these guys 🙂
Wow, those El Chicano clips are killer! Perfect, tight instrumentation and (on "Tell Her She's Lovely") vocals as well. Also love the Spinners' two performances. Poor Canned Heat: After Al Wilson's death, they struggled to stay relevant and you can tell they're just barely hanging on here if they're reduced to doing medleys (not that Fats Domino wasn't great).
Dr. Hook and Medicine Show guys were always so stoned, but also always very entertaining. Plus they were good musicians. "Cover of the Rolling Stone" was a big hit for them in 1970's. They showed on a lot of tv shows then & were so fun!❤
The next episode after this from January 18, 1974 was hosted by Smokey Robinson, and also features appearances from Paul Butterfield's Better Days, Grin, Eddie Kendricks, Ann Peebles, Edwin Starr, and Johnny Taylor.
Not the original line-up- Mark Andes- bass, Matt Andes- guitar. I have to say the new guitar player is equal if not an up-grade! He played Matt's slide part perfectly!!!
Jo Jo Gunne lineup seen here is Jay Ferguson, Curly Smith, Jimmie Randall and John Staehely. Bassist Mark Andes left the band after the first album, and was replaced by Jimmie Randall. Guitarist John Staehely (a former member of Spirit) replaced Matt Andes after their third album, “Jumpin' the Gunne”, and would prominently featured on their fourth and final album, “So...Where's the Show?” (my personal favorite). Both Randall and Staehely contributed to an overall harder rocking Jo Jo Gunne than the original Andes brothers version.
@@aarongoff1111 he had loads of hits in the uk , moonlighting from 1975 his second biggest hit when I need you early 77 a number one and years later thunder in my heart a big one .
Fell here fot just another night of old MS, 5-IV-24. Some of the acts, never heard before. Was there ever a bad performance in MS? Anyone? Not tonight again!!
I've said this before but I feel Dr Hook between 1972-74 were the best rock, soul and country band out there, for reasons I don't want to list here and now, but they never were allowed to reach their potential. thx Bert!
Been waiting for this one for years particularly looking forward to seeing Dr Hook hosting and singing "The Loneliest People" unreleased song from "Fried Face"
The wait was well worth it. At last we have a great version of "The Lonelist People". That song would have worked well as part of thier live concert shows. Just a shame it wasnt released on a studio album along with the other songs that were being considered for the "Fried Face" album.
@@klfprankster- how was that song never released on an album?! I’m surprised they didn’t even try and redo it in the late 70s or early 80s unlike Atmore. Beautiful song, and this performance is, in my opinion, better than the studio recording we have.
Jo Jo Gunne, what a great performance! Lineup seen here is Jay Ferguson, Curly Smith, Jimmie Randall and John Staehely. Bassist Mark Andes left the band after the first album, and was replaced by Jimmie Randall. Guitarist John Staehely (a former member of Spirit) replaced Matt Andes after their third album, “Jumpin' the Gunne”, and would prominently featured on their fourth and final album, “So...Where's the Show?” (my personal favorite). Both Randall and Staehely contributed to this overall harder rocking version of the Gunne!
I want to say Staehely joined his brother with Locke and Cassidy for one of the manifestations of Spirit. Their "Feedback" album surprised me how good it was, without Randy California. Also huge fan of Jo Jo Gunne and Ferguson's solo work!
Sylvia's Mother. Now this brings back some memories. And the operator said forty cents more for the next three minutes It’s amazing how times have changed. Using a pay phone and scrambling to get more change out just to keep an argument going. I remember back before Katrina the removed the last pay phone at one of the towns gas station / mini mart.
I hear you. I remember calling friends saying come get me too. I had a 72 Torino which would suck the gas down quickly. And how many times you give them the number for a call back cause you was running out of change. I hated waiting for my girlfriend to call me. She would leave me hanging for a good five minutes and then want me to kiss her buttock. Lmao stupid games
We always made sure to wear clean underwear in case of a car wreck, haha. & to keep a quarter to call home in case of an emergency, boy, how times have changed.
I love seeing these archive shows being let loose and seeing slight tape damage. Lets get this material out for the people to see. This page is doing gods work and others should follow suit.
Can`t wait. Must be a great show with them as host 🙂 When they were guest at this show they performed Insane Asylum just " AWESOME" - Hope they did a great version of the rare and almost unknown song Joe`s Bar also knows as (The loneliest people in the world) Was that song written or co-written by George ? This must be the best show ever.....
The great Henry Fambrough was the last surviving member of the original Spinners. He passed in Feb of 2024. RIP to the last of of my very favorite Philly Soul bands❤🙏
Dr Hook still touring. Myself and my sister would love to see them in Australia. No they are only touring Europe and elsewhere. Damn. And what a shame Ray is no longer with them.
I wonder if I can still pass a drug test after watching Dr Hook? Jo Jo Gunne and El Chicano look like those forgotten goldies I love. A wide variety of music styles looks like a wonderful trip in the Way Back Machine. 😁
@@robmatlock7675Mark Andes original member-bassist w/Jay Ferguson is very talented & handsome (don’t think he’s playing here though/he’d already left band) darn it I wanted to 👀 him! He was a founding member of Colorado’s Firefall band & played with Spirit & Heart, he’s still alive @ 76yrs young. Yes, I wonder if they ever played Tulsa now? There’s a cool vid of him on YT playing with Randy California & he’s wearing fantastic clothes w/long blonde hair, believe his strap was red-white-blue with stars. Matt Andes his brother is a guitarist, very talented bro’s.
In early 1974 glam rock and makeup was still a thing. Leo was trying different things early on and flirted with the look via the mime thing. He straightened his visuals out, went pop and sold about zillion records a couple years later
33:30”Somewhere Over the Rainbow” by Livingston Taylor is so pretty, was listening w/o watching & could hear James Taylor’s vocal, anyone else hear it? Is he his brother? Think I read something about this on another episode, hmmm. Ty
Livingston is JT's Brother. Though he's less know, he has a large discography. He, JT, and their sister all have recorded albums, and occasionally play together.
Well, I was disappointed they didn't sing the complete Sylvia's Mother😢Oh well...they were still good! El Chicano was good, too, and Canned Heat. Thanks, MIdnight Special!✌💜
@ronaldolaquidara64 Ronald, any relation to Charles Laquidara? Anyway, I think for Dr. Hook to perform the mashup between two songs and not screw it up is pretty impressive. I think it would be hard to pull off if they were really baked.

Leo Sayer and his glam rock outfit. This tells me where the glam rock get-up crap came from , England !! Influenced by David Bowie, no doubt !! Disappointed in his looks and performance here. Dr. Hook and The Medicine Show appears to always have fun on stage, always outstanding, high or not !!
@@sg-yq8pmwhy do you have to be disrespectful and call the man out of his name come on now there was no need for that just speak your opinion and that's it no need for being rude !
On an upbeat note - Jay Ferguson NEVER spent one night alone that he didn't want to!😂😂 Every girl I knew thought he was the best looking dude of all time. Hate that guy.😁
Dennis Locorriere is 3 sheets to the wind, surprised how well he could still play and sing.
They all had something going on.

Jay Ferguson & his group Jo Jo Gunne were the highlight for me. What a great band.
I kept wondering why the singers voice sounded familiar, lol. So I googled it.....great singer.
Me too! Jay is one of rock’s greatest vocalists.
Somehow, I just knew, yours would be the top comment as I’m a very curious…kitty…🐈⬛…wink wink…🐈⬛…
@@KittyGrizGriz - All credit goes to Jo Jo Gunne. I simply stated the obvious.

I saw Leo in Atlanta after he released “Long Tall Glasses”. My brother and I were the only people in our crowd who knew who he was. He was great.
Dr Hook does harmony pretty good when stoned.

Dr. Hook did do an episode of PBS' "Soundstage." Now I'll have to see if someone uploaded it.
They were more fun to watch than most any other show bands, and they were just goofing around.
@@howardlevin2753 They also did the West German show "Musikladen" (the successor to Beat Club). They may have been the drunkest group of the 70s
It lived up to expectations and even more.
This is Dr.Hook at their very best again, the way they sang together is just awesome.
I was very excited about "The Loneliest People In The World", that was just great , the music, the band and the vocals harmony - Nobody does it better then these guys 🙂

Ain’t no such thing man! 🤙🏻

Thank you especially for these two songs Canned Heat. I would like to watch their entire concert without Alan but still with the energetic Bob Hite.
Looking forward to Friday. Love me some Dr. Hook.
I love the Detroit spinners my favorite song was rubberband Man. I love them all and JoJo Gunne was phenomenal as well.
I think Dr. Hook "Bankrupt" album from 1975 is their best album!!!
El Chicano were unreal here...sooo perfect...live with no effort...sooo underrated...love this song!!
Smooth as queso dip!
Yep! My 1st time hearing/seeing them. “Tell Her She’s Lovely” was over the top Great, a pretty song! 💘
Their music is so darn relaxing…ahhh
I saw them live in L.A. right around that time. They were terrific.

I saw them live in L.A. around that time. They were terrific.
I saw El Chicano perform in LA during the 1980s and 1990s along with Malo.
I also saw El Chicano perform that song live on a Latino awards show in the 1980s. Martin Sheen and Edward James Olmos were on the show also.
I don't know what Dr. Hook are on, but I want some!
El Chicano stole this show. Tell her she's lovely!

Leo Sayer and his glam rock outfit. This tells me where the glam rock get-up crap came from , England !! Influenced by David Bowie, no doubt !! Disappointed in his looks and performance here. Dr. Hook and The Medicine Show appears to always have fun on stage, always outstanding, high or not !!
His outfit was not in any way "Glam Rock" you twit
@@sg-yq8pmwhy do you have to be disrespectful and call the man out of his name come on now there was no need for that just speak your opinion and that's it no need for being rude !
DENNIS was baked😅
I know, it's a shame they wouldn't let Dr Hook namecheck Cocaine Katy! 😂
Classic Spinners….keep the cameras off the dead audience…
Leo Sayer is underrated. Great singer and song writer. But I really liked The Three Dog Night version much better.
Agreed. I mean, you can't write a song called "The Show Must Go On" and then get mad when 3 Dog Night sings, "I must let the show go on!"
On an upbeat note - Jay Ferguson NEVER spent one night alone that he didn't want to!😂😂
Every girl I knew thought he was the best looking dude of all time.
Hate that guy.😁
Whew! You’re not kidding, he’s very hunky! 🥵 in those leopard pants and heeled shoes. 😂
Well, yeah, especially when standing next to bass player Freddie Frentón!
Jo Jo Gunne!
