Summary:
Formed in San Francisco in the same year of this performance, this early recording of Y&T (which stood for Yesterday & Today, a name copped from The Beatles' album that featured the infamous "butcher" cover) shows the band in its infancy when it was essentially a high energy club group opening for the bands like Journey and The Doobie Brothers (who were already superstars).
Featuring hard-rock tracks such as "Jammin' For Kenny", "Tonight", "Stargazer (Round And Round)", and a lackluster "Rock n' Roll Medley: Blue Suede Shoes / Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On / Jailhouse Rock / Hound Dog", this recording shows how much of an influence the UK band Ten Years After was on Y&T. The fact that they remained committed to the hard rock boogie style (after it was waning in the US), explains why they failed to find a huge audience.
The band would endure for another 15 years after this early recording was captured, but in all that time it would fail to have any sizable impact on the US music scene. Their highest charting release was the 1984 album In Rock We Trust, which peaked #46. The following release's "Summertime Girls" proved a hit, and was put to use on the TV show Baywatch.
Y&T had long stints on London, A&M, and Geffen Records, all of which had considerable success with the band in Europe, especially Holland, as well as Japan. They remained a smaller, cult act in the US, but across the pond Y&T had gold-record status.
The band split up in the 1990s, but in 2001 Meniketti and Kennemore reformed the band. They have since released re-mastered versions of two of their '80s LPs, as well as two volumes of demos and rarities. The band continues to tour.
One of the Greatest bands of all time 🤘
My best friend in high school was Phil Kennemore. RIP bro! You were a beautiful dreamer and all the girls loved you! I miss you man. Know you are rocking with Jesus! Amen 🙏
This is a very important piece of rock history. There's just not enough early Y&T footage like this available. Amazing band.
RIP Thunderfoot Leo Haze, Joey Alves & Phil Kennemore
Love this song, I have the original LP when they were called Yesterday and Today. What a heavy song back then that was played at our parties
Phil was an Excellent bass player, I was shocked whe
n his widow thanked me for my kind words on some vid comment a few years back
Meneketti very underrated as a guitarist. I saw him a few times in late 70s and early 80s and his playing was as good as anybody back then.
One of the most underrated greatest bands of all time.... Can't wait to see them this November❤
This proves to me how solid these guys really were as musicians and true artists. I never like music from "before my time" when I first hear it. Never. Even from bands I grew up with. Born in '72 with no older siblings or friends to influence me, I was always an 80s hair metal guy, but this...was incredible.
Beautiful tone by Dave. And Leonard, what else can be said. One of my favorite drummers ever.
Thank you, that drummers foot work is awesome! Sound's like he is playing a double bass.
@@weneedcriticalthinking Wow I just found this. Totally agree Leonard was one of the greatest drummers. His single bass drum sounded like he was playing with two. Till this day I've listened to their very first 3 albums. always
And now we're down to Dave from the original line up. RIP Phil, Leonard and Joey...
Sad to think 3/4 of this great band is gone! I will always fly the Yesterday and Today flag! R.I.P Leonard Haze,Phillip Kennemore,and Joey Alves! I still believe Rock and Roll's Gonna Save The world! Keep on Keepin' on, Dave Meniketti!
Dave had only been play guitar for five years at this point, pretty amazing really.
I can't even put into words..... how much I loved Leonard HAZE' S drumming!!!
Great band in early they play in our high school prom ! Menitetti super friend during the break time and talk to me about music,
on the Yesterday & Today Album Leonard Haze put on a clinic on hard rock drumming
This same year they played at our high school. I was blown away. Their real sound and energy never really translated to vinyl. You HAD to see them live and, damn, did they deliver.
You are so lucky!!! I Just flew in from Boston to see the mystic shows this weekend!!! They have been my favorite band since 83. I 1st saw em in 85 in Lynn mass. Always wanted to see a HomeTown show at the Mystic!!!
Vacation 2023 is Going to Be Amazing Y&T Style.
Beautiful Dreamer has Always been one of my favorite Y&T songs. Dave played a little bit of it in Connecticut in 2015. Freaking Amazing!!!!!!!
That drummers foot work is awesome! Sound's like he is playing a double bass.
Leonard Haze was a monster player, damn.
WOW, where did the years go??? Was there.
These Guys really Played with intense fury & dynamics! incredible drummer, as well as the rest of the band .. love the early works 1st 3 lps are my go to music from the 70's early 80's..
Thanx for sharing, great moment
One of my all-time favorite bands. Still going strong today, though we've lost 3/4 of this great quartet.
Dave's hair. Love to get his reaction to it today.
Winterland was one of the best places to go! I'd be front stage or sitting in back behind the stage checking out the drummer licks bass pedal grooves. Sawdust on the floor for people puking on the floor quick clean up! THXS 4 Video!
Peter Morton. I liked how they showed past concerts between sets. Seen many shows at Winterland.
I liked sitting in the upper deck above the mixer sound guys
I liked sitting right above the mixers and mixing board The sound was best right there
Haze is animal. Hats off. RIP.
Saw you guys several Times at the STARWOOD and was BLOWN AWAY BACK THEN and NOW LOOK AT THIS AXE PLAYING................. YOUR A ACE DAVID!!!!
I think this is even before I saw them at the Starwood and we were ALL FLOORED BY DAVE AND GANG and Daves Blues Playing is ToTALLY WORLD CLASS ONE OF THE VERY BEST Check it out if you have not heard him play the Blues and his Blues Singing............. ITS SUPER!!!!!
hope you're well Dave....top man...
Ha ha love the hair dave! Yeah i love this song.... Daves still a god!
We all had hair like that back then. Lol
Beautiful DagoFro
Y&T is autentic band of hard rock
Never brush curly hair 😂
Aaaahhhh, the first song I ever heard with Y&T and I was hooked!!!
Same here. My friend had this album. We played it until it was scratched to all hell lol
Same here. The cover is on my wall now!
Going to see them in October when they visit Copenhagen.
Have seen them once before!!! The concert was voted the best concert of the year!
THE BEST!!!
this song takes me back i wish i was there again... long live rockin roll...
On tour with these guys in the "Day", Dave was the only arriving to the shows with a nice car and no drugs. Enough said ... Too bad. They really were talented musicians.
Bullshit...Dave was no Angel and on tour they had no cars...Ms Rona Hayward
That right foot!
Amazing footage!
I'll always love Y&T...
RIP Leonard Haze
Thunderfoot!
I remember his song: Alcohol! Tomorrow morning I'll be dead on the floor from that alcohol! My friends Y &T were so good and fun!! Amen 🙏
Wow. The hair and outfits! But Dave sure rocked even back then...
Unmistakabl voice and Great Riffs Dave
Dave just smoked on those solos, first song i ever heard by them, wish now id have seen em live,,
Damn I didn't know they were jammin' that long ago. Probably seen these cats more than any other band live all over the bay area
a lot of fans do not realize that Y&T was playing gigs like this in the early 70's. i wish Dave all the success because he certainly deserves it and earns it. everyday should be Y&T day in the rock n roll universe
Y & T Dave Menkett lead singer and Sammy Hagar in band Montrose both started iin San Fran and about the same year 1974. Been around a very, very long time
Yesterday and Today
I hear major Grand Funk Railroad influence here, and their first album UFO overtones. Awesome to see and hear their roots.
Mother Mary/UFO/Schenker/RIP
I first got turned on to Y& T with there first record.. it kicks ass.
great, saw them a year or two later there.
Here Dave reminds me of Malmsteen crossed with Corrosion of Conformity guitarist.
Great video. I'm glad I was able to see them March 1. Looks like Phil raided Mr. Roper's closet.
DAVE IS THE BEST.ALWAYS...
Holy shit look at Dave's hair LOL😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
1974 Dave shakes his head - 2024 his hair hasnt stopped swishing back an forth.🤣
boy I was 8 years old back then
This is Yesterday and Today...they shortened it later
But the fans where calling them Y&T way before they changed it
Masterpiece
Nickozzy

Journey and Yesterday and Today played at Ygnacio Valley High School gym I forget the year 74 or 5 2 bucks
Fantastic just great /,,/
JFK faked his death

Bad ass song
❤
1974?
Wow...
That's got a Latin vibe.
Bay areas finest
i thought y&t came out in the 80s.
You thought wrong lol
Y&T originated from the 70s they were called yesterday and today. they weren't called Y&T till the 80s
I was 14 years and old stole a car to go to this show . These guys and Social Unrest put Hayward CA on the map
john frew. I lived in Hayward 15 yrs, I was at the Hayward Memorial auditorium in 76, when Yesterday & Today open up for Journey Great Show I still Remember it. Seen them at Winterland too. Rip, Joey, Lenard & Phil. Keep Rockin Dave.

I DRINK MY COFFEE WITH SUGAR AND HONEY IN MY TEE
I WEAKUP EVERY MORNING AND MEAN WHAT I MEAN .I ALWAYS LOVE YOU.,,!!! . nickozzy Athens city rock'n roll
Wtf ! I Thought they started in the 80s !
74
Question
Was this the amateur night which they opened before Journey?
I was there! $5.00
Journey weren't yet superstars if it was '74
I don't believe the musical style that was waning in the US affected this band's ability to capture mainstream success. With a lot of their early stuff, they just simply missed the mark. Hard Rock was alive and well in and there was no reason why they couldn't have sat down and churned out a catchy tune. That's why 1983-1984 were their formative years, cuz they got it.
Black tiger and mean streak would of been huge hits in the earlier 70's..
Fucking Leonard. What a sick drum part. Miss you brothers.
Was this 74 or 77?
FODA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Meniketti's hair lol
The high school he went to wouldn't let him have long hair so he went to school with a wig on then he would take the wig off after school.
Frapzoid That is true.....
Solid metal band and sound. One thing though. I cannot relate to the lyrics one bit. Therefore, not so great. Sad.
That’s awful
I THINK they were better back then actually…. The first two albums on London Records.
