    "Pick Up the Pieces" is a 1974 song by the Average White Band from their second album, AWB. The principal composer of the track was founding member and saxophonist Roger Ball. It was the group's most successful song, and features one of the most recognizable grooves in funk music. It is essentially an instrumental, apart from the song's title being shouted at several points in the song. sample (help·info) The song features an intro 4 measures of C7#9,sus 4 (C F B-flat E-flat) afterwards in the theme 8 measures of Fm7 (F A-flat C E-flat), 2 measures of Bb7 (B-flat D F A-flat), 4 measures of Fm7.
    "Pick Up the Pieces" was released in the United Kingdom in July 1974 but failed to make an impression. When the album was released in the United States in October 1974, radio stations started to pick up on the song, and on 22 February 1975, it went to the top of the US singles chart and peaked at number five on the soul charts.[1] After its US success, the song charted in the UK and climbed to number six. "Pick Up the Pieces" also made it to number eleven on the US disco chart

    They had more than one hit. Don't forget "Cut The Cake". Also, Stuart toured with paul McCartney several times. He is a real deal musician.

      Saxophone 🎷, keyboards, drums and percussions, pin songs, compose and arrange . Edgar Winter is what I consider near genius level musician.

    Ringo's concerts are so much more fun & eclectic than Paul's who's more a tribute act of himself sadly, I know which one I'd go too & Ringo's clever & no one however big would turn down an invite if free, tho he needs more women artists on I think.

    I never once thought that a member of AWB would somehow make it into Ringo's all Starr band, and they only had one hit, which is this one.

    Ringo Starr is so great, he has to have a second drummer doing the heavy lifting. What a overrated drummer. If it wasn't for the group The Beatles, he would be nothing...

    • @seltaeb9691
      @seltaeb9691 2 роки тому +1

      I think the second drummer is his son & Ringo sings & comes down to the stage so he needs someone on the drums tho he can do both as he did in the early 60s. Top drummer. Wash out your ears & put Abbey Road on & hear his drumming.
