Thank you, SAM MOORE for doing your part to help tame mankind with your gift and talent. Your music was the background soundtrack to our once young lives even when we didn't know it. Sam & Dave was the "ultimate" soul duo. In the meantime, I'll keep the music playing.
Steve Cropper on the telecaster, Donald "Duck" Dunn on the Fender Bass, played on the record, also the Soul Man hit, and cameo in the Blues Brothers movie some years later...
Sam & Dave soured me on Motown and drew me to the more raw soul at studios in the south. I felt Motown was too pop. Sam & Dave said their greatest memory is that they were the opening act for the Temptations when they toured Europe. They got about 20 minutes and The Temps got whatever time they wanted. At the first show as the duo left the stage the audience yelled for more , so much that it disrupted the Temps performance . This became regular that early in the tour it was obvious the European audiences came to see Sam& Dave more than the Temps. Thus the rest of the tour, the Temps opened the show for about twenty minutes and Sam& Dave got whatever time they needed. True story told by Sam Moore. The MGs backing band also said that the duo got the audience so worked up that they had to cancel balcony tickets as the audiences were stomping and dancing so much they feared the balcony would collapse.
That Horn section was throwing it out there. Duck Dunn showing how the bass is supposed to be played. Steve Cropper and his famous Tele. Can’t tell who’s beating the skins. Maybe Al Jackson. But Sam and Dave vocals are over the top on this performance. They didn’t hold back.
Lovely to hear from you. Your brother was righteous👍 and of course Sam was the Bomb. For 50 years I've been groovin to this fabulosity and I don't think there's ever been a better 2-man group. Love and hugs to you from SoCal 😍😍😍
Lord knows I wish today's music had some kind of soul like this, but unfortunately that candle blew out a long time ago. Thank God we can watch those videos on here & remember those days when artist had talent like Sam & Dave, and one hell of a smoking band behind them too!
Thanks for posting this. I’ve been racking my brain trying to remember this old song for the last couple of years. Finally, there it suddenly appeared on my uTube. I didn’t realize it was a Sam & Dave song. Great old song. 😊
@@curtisphilumalee1447Stax, Royal and American sound were know as the Memphis sound. Great studios where legendary artists recorded classic hit. FYI, Bruno Mars was a huge fan of the Memphis sound. American and Stax had been torn down but royal was a museum but still could record there so Bruno Mars recorded “ Uptown Funk “ there as a tribute to his love of the Memphis sound . Pickett recorded at Stax , late American, Aretha recorded at American after problems at muscle Schoals, Joe tex recorded at American , the Sweet Inspirations recorded at American , Dionne Warwicke too. And the greatest white soul singer recorded at American , namely Elvis Presley , btw the house band at American was all white including Reggie Young on guitar who had left Royal due to money issues. Stax had Booker t and MGs as house band , and artists Sam & Dave, Otis Redding, Carla Thomas, Isaac Hayes and Johnny Taylor among others . Royal recorded Ann Peeples, Denise Lasalle, and their most famous artist Al Green. Al Wanted Reggie Young on guitar but producer Wille Mitchell had cheated him out of money. Al was so determined that he sent his replacement Teeny Hodges to meet Reggie to teach him how Al wanted him to play. Hodges was so impressed with Reggie , he named his first son after him. The Memphis sound is the greatest sound in music history. Even Motown was envious of them. The funk sounds of the 70s were influenced by Memphis.
This right here explains the frustrations many of his have with modern "music." This was transcendent, as it should always be. The attempt ought to at least be made. Sam, Dave and Band, you will never be forgotten.
Sam Moore, the towering tenor of the Sam & Dave soul music duo whose mid-1960s hits “Soul Man” and “Hold On, I’m Comin’ ” soundtracked the lives of countless fans and then heard in film and TV for generations, died Friday, January 10, 2025, at a Miami hospital, his wife Joyce Moore said. Moore, who was born in Miami’s Overtown neighborhood on Oct. 12, 1935, was 89.
El Duo Dinamita es impresionante. La mezcla de sus voces, como transmiten el ritmo, la gente se vuelve loca, no puedes dejar de moverte. Y por supuesto el grupazo que llevan, sin palabras... Cropper, Dunn .... una grabación excepcional, un tesoro, mil gracias.
I would love it if you released the three performances by the James Gang in 1974! Two were aired on one night and the other was about a month after so January and February 1974. Please consider this. Thank you very much.
This is back when people actually played their instruments and singers… really sang! No computers!!! There are bands still out …. Playing live music! Go see these bands/ singers…. Because it’s real!!!
Sam, Dave, Steve Cropper and Duck Dunn. What a lineup!
Don't forget Al Jackson Jr. on drums.
One half of the Blue Brother Band
AKA Sam & Dave + Booker T. and the MG's
Ikr. And al Jackson jr
Recognized Steve. Duck without a beard looks odd
We had a band powerful enough to turn goat piss into gasoline!" Duck Dunn

Beautifully Said. Couldn't agree more. We really lost a musical genius
RIP Sam Moore
The Blues Brothers before the Blues Brothers.
The Blues Brothers were a parody. Sam and Dave were the real deal.
@@otrnam1 You Got That Right!!!
@@otrnam1 Truth!
Sam and Dave WERE and ARE the Blues Brother!
I wish I could of been at one of Sam and Dave’s Concerts. They always look like they were having Fun.
I would love to have seen them in concert back then but children would not have been allowed at such venues.
The legendary Sam and Dave (R I P. Dave)
How good is that bass :)
That's Donald "Duck" Dunn
ampeg amp looks like !
So good it almost steals the show at one point, actually!
As good as it gets. RIP Duck.
The Saxophones are the star of this song Though!!
Steve Cropper on the guitar… Is that Duck Dunn on that bass?…
Sho’ you right!😉🤣
Yes that is Duck.
I loved their music! Rest in paradise Sam and Dave. Your music will never leave this world. Love you always.😢
Without a doubt one of the truly great soul voices of all time-- rip Sam. As for the Universe's greatest band in Heaven...hold on, he's coming...
The bass player is righteous. He lifts this fine performance to a whole 'nother level.
That's the great Duck Dunn !! And Steve Cropper on the Fender Tele !
The Saxophones are the star of this Song though!!!!!
A great singer it's sad 😔

Great story
Love this story, greatness👍👍
Listening to the radio in the 60s and 70s, Sam and Dave never failed to show up at some point. If you liked soul or R&B, these guys always delivered!
Not when you lived in the Pocono Mountains and the only stations you picked up played rock music. Glad I still had all my albums and 45rpms.
For anyone under 40, that’s how it’s done in a band.
Bingo
Amen. Doesn’t get much better than this.
Word
I'm 34 and this is my era🤘🤘❤
I'm 67, and I love this song. It was popular when I was a kid. President Trump uses this song in his rallies. He knows good music. ❤❤❤

Yes, it’s Al Jackson.
That's Greg Brown on drums
This is pure magic. Soul music is the best music.
Let the Church say, "Amen!"
Amen.
Amen
Sam and Dave were the music of a generation. The best.
How fun is this? Pure, unadulterated talent on that stage!! RIP to Duck Dunn.
Play it Steve!
This is great AMERICAN music! We should all embrace it!
we do
That horn section is solid .
I love it when they dance to the music toward the end the of the song 03:23 12/27/24
Fan-freaking-tastic. Thank you Midnight Special! ✌
I miss these guys good old school music 🎶 nothing like it 2024 still listening ❤❤🎉🎉
They had such a contagious enthusiasm! A lively performance!🤩 I loved the bass player's faces!😅
Donald "Duck" Dunn.

Loved this song since I was 6 years old now going on 65 as of March 16th which I share with a bunch of people and we all keep in touch with each other
Real Life Music. Great Singers.
I played tenor sax in high school and man was this a fun song to play. one of my favorites.
Oh man, what a machine!
I remember this. Lord. I saw this performance on TV. I came out of my chair. Dancing, feeling it.
Thanks for posting this. I’ve been racking my brain trying to remember this old song for the last couple of years.

I couldn't click fast enough and this was just what I hoped it would be. Great stuff. Thanks for the upload.
Thanks so much for the support, it is greatly appreciated and helps us continue to share these incredible gems.
This song reminds me when I was 16 years old
Always puts a smile on my face whenever I hear it.

R&B Memphis pasa a ser Funk con Brown?
The sound of Muscle Shoals & STAX.
Double Dynamite reunited with greatest rhythm section ever, the MGs, Steve Cropper, Al Jackson, & Duck Dunn killing on bass!

Masterclass in musicianship.
Bad ASS!!!!

Yea they’d probably make you pay a la PPV

Legendary, timeless performance, thank u for sharing!👍
I just loved how Duck Dunn revised and just exploded his bass part. Going to the higher register for the chorus brings the song to a new intensity!
I'm Lucky enough to see / hear them live mid sixties! In my home town Leicester!
Great stuff!...on the Midnight Special!
This very well may be the best youtube channel.
Love that Soul and R&B, how fun to be in the audience dancing along with them, Groovy Baby! 😍
Man I haven’t been pulled over in 6 months
I bet those cops have got "SCMODS".
So good 👍👀😋🎸💖🤩🕺💃🔥🍹🐔🍒🐓 Love from France 🇫🇷 for all

These two were so good together, it’s unbelievable to me that they hated each other.
We had the absolue best music in our generation ever, what they have today, I am not sure what it is
