Jamel, thank you for bringing me so much joy right now. I'm a Native American on my reservation and an elder. I remember hearing all these "olden goldies" back when they were NEW! It tickles me how much YOUR reactions are just like mine were back in the day! Keep those reactions coming!
Here in the Carolinas, we call The Marshall Tucker Band "southern rock." A friend I've known for most of my life has played in the band several times over the past couple of decades. "Fire on the Mountain" is my favorite by them.
I was 2 to about 5 or 6. But then my mother had extremely good taste in music. MTB, ELO, CCR, ZZtop, just all over the place, but old rock and blues especially. She can still sing like an angel.
Being born in '65, I clearly remember hearing this now one-of-my favorite songs of the mid-seventies for the first time in my mom's 1976 Pontiac Trans Am! I'm so thankful for having grown up in the seventies and eighties!
This song came out in 1977, two years after graduating from high school. I'm 65 now and still burst out singing it, word for word, every time I hear it. Love me some Marshall Tucker Band music.
There was no need to be saved, man. Granted, If I had to choose one of the 2 genres, It would have to be Southern Rock (so, I´m with you there), but there are 100´s of amazing, groovy, soulful, Disco tunes which I´d consider high quality music too.
@@apataye OK maybe I should rephrase it to Save us from John Travolta. Everybody jumped on the Saturday Night Fever train. You know the look. Southern Rock was a nice break until Travolta hit the stage again with Urban Cowboy and everyone had to look like a cowboy. Travolta ruins everything!
I remember going to their concert and the lead singer picked me up and took me on stage with them and he held me while singing this song. I also got a signed t-shirt from them!
The late great Toy Caldwell. He and his brother Tommy are gone (RIP). I was heavily influenced by their long time founding member, drummer, Paul Riddle. He was captivating on record and the stage. GREAT SINGING AND OVERALL MUSICIANSHIP by the whole band. You should check out their tune, "24 Hours at a time".
Without a doubt my favorite flavor of rock and roll , Southern Rock . I lived in the south for many years and was stationed at Fort Bragg , North Carolina ...twice . 82nd Airborne 🇺🇸
This is the song that turned me on to southern rock. I remember where I was when I first heard this song. I working my college job in a warehouse listening to my radio. When that flute started, when the honky-tonk riffs came in (blues anyone [that appealed to my Led Zeppelin ear]), and then Doug Gray's crooning voice came up, I said damn, this speaks to me.
More Marshall Tucker please"searchin for a rainbow","fire on the mountain","take the highway","this ole cowboy","24 hours at a time" . They are a southern rock band with country roots. I believe they were from Spartanburg SC. RIP Tommy and Toy Caldwell 🙏
Back in the 1980s I worked for my friends' band in Los Angeles. Our band did a 3-day run in Northern California as opening act for Marshall Tucker Band. Our drummer was a guy who could listen to a song one time and memorize the lyrics and melody immediately. He would often make a monetary bet with one of us if there was a dispute over the lyrics of a song, and he was ALWAYS right, an impressive talent. Until the first gig on the Tucker tour... Marshall Tucker Band were doing their sound check before the gig. They broke into this song. As "head-roadie" (a title which was eventually changed to "stage manager"), I was running around getting our stuff ready to take onstage, and I happened to pass by our drummer, who was listening to Tucker intently, and singing along with them. He knew all the words... except when it came to the chorus/title of the song, he sang "Pretty little love song" with the first word pronounced with a drawl, sounding like "Purdy". I broke into laughter, and called him out on it. "Drake, it's "Heard it in a..." , not "Purdy little". He thought I was crazy, and defended his faulty lyrics. I did not back down. "Look, it's the friggin' title of the song, and you got it wrong, and I'm ready to bet against you with it". Of course I won, and of course he refused to pay me. 20 years after the band broke up in 1990, I got them back together again for a reunion party gig. At the gig, I was talking with the drummer and laughing about the good old times. At some point, I brought up this incident. He turned red and argued with me that it didn't happen, that he had purposely sung the wrong words. The bassist and one of the old roadies were standing next to us, and when they heard the drummer's comment to me, they laughed and came to support my claim. Everybody remembered the incident. It was a good laugh. Anyway, I can't hear this song without remembering, and I always sing along: "Purdy little lo-ove so-ong... Can't be wrong!" .
They're kind of Southern Rock, but more Country with some Blues. Though, they aren't really in the Country genre, or at least, they aren't really considered, when people think of the country genre. They're kind of outsiders, doing they're own style. To me, they're like The Eagles, not in style, but in having their own distinct sound.
They are considered in the Holy Trinity of Southern Rock. Look up “Stompin’ Room Only”...country is the furthest from my mind when I think of them, even if rooted in it. Country is Charlie Pride, George Strait, Dolly, Alan Jackson. The Marshall Tucker Band is a rockabilly blues band. We just call it southern rock.
Definitely country rock -- southern rock is a record company label that just means a bunch of groups from the south, that all more or less played rock... but they were quite different from each other. Skynyrd is like English blues rock.... Marshall Tucker Band is country rock with some jazz thrown in... Allman Brothers were a blues and jazz band. All different music... the only unifier was they were all from the south. And the record companies pounced on this untapped music industry for about ten to twenty years, and then it lost some popularity. But goddamn, is it good music... no matter what band you listen to. It's all good.
One thing contemporary music cannot match is the instrumentation of the old-school music. It RULES! Guitar, piano, violin, flute, whatever, those folks knew how to compose and PLAY! It reached into your soul-and the instant you heard it you were into it.
You know, I’m a millennial too and I certainly love a lot of contemporary electronic music, etc. but there’s something so magical about analog old music that I do not hear in modern recordings. It’s like 4k Video: It’s almost too synthetic or too real.
Saw them play a concert with Charlie Daniels and Greg Allman also on the bill. At the end of Greg's set, everyone came out in stage and jammed for 30 minutes.
I’m addicted to watching your reactions. You choose SO much good music to listen to. Takes me back to my childhood. Thanks for the joy, peace, love, and positivity your channel is about.
I saw an interview with Toy Caldwell where the interviewer mentioned how big Southern Rock was and what happened? Toy said, "Just woke up one morning and it was gone".
This is one of my favorite driving tunes. Driving in the country with the sun shining and this tune on just makes you feel so good. I call it Western-Rock :-)
Toy Caldwell is one of the most underrated geniuses in music history. Musician, song writer, Marine, wounded hero, and just all around great people of all time. He taught himself to "thumb strum" because of the arm injuries sustained in Vietnam. Just a beautiful soul. Thanks for sharing this!
"24 hours at a time" , "Take the Highway"," Blue Ridge Mountain Sky" among others are GREAT songs to experience the jamming of the MTB! Heard in a love Song is a Western theme as al of of their music is.
When I was in college, my roommates were have a goodby party for my other roommate Amy (she was transferring)... well I had to work. When I left they had just started a pony keg and were singing Amie ... when I got back 4 hours later I was greeted by my dorm mates telling me to make them stop - they were STILL playing Amie (non-stop), were trashes, dancing around the room and somehow were barely dressed at that point. 🤣🤣. Well, I didn’t stop it, I had had to miss it so just joined them, drinking singing & dancing to this truly classic song... 🤣 Can’t Heat it without laughing remembering that night.
One of my favorite songs ever!! Love your reaction. Southern Rock Southern rock has a tradition of the musicians having a part in every song where the shine. Allman Bros, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Marshall Tucker, Little River Band, Charlie Daniel's, Barefoot Jerry and many more all have fantastic instumentals.
"Pretty little love song". The flute, the piano riff, the vocals, the lyrics, the lead guitar...a country western band? It was whatever you wanted it to be. That's the beauty of the MTB: those boots fit so many different feet.
Yes it's country.,,,aka...Southern Rock. ALWAYS on the radio, juke box and sellout LP albums back in the day. Music is outstanding still today. If there was a Tucker Band concert announced they would fill 3 arenas at least! My fave song is "Cattle Drive
Speaking of Charlie Daniels, Jamel should check out "The South's Gonna Do It Again," an incomplete education on southern rock that name-drops pretty much every band you need to know.
thank you jamel for the music! Im still learning english, I love all music! This is a good way to spend my time and learn english at the same time!!! Thank you Hermano!!! Im from El Salvador in Centro America!!!
I love your love of music. Watching you discover stuff I grew up listening to, mixed with your enthusiasm, makes me love the stuff I already love even more!
“Fire On The Mountain” is consdered Marshall Tucker Band’s BEST song by a lot of people. And this is Southern Rock NOT country. You asked so I figured I’d let ya know. Great reaction video!
I love this song, love this band. My sister and I saw them in concert back in the 1980s. I can't remember what song they opened with, but everyone was up on their feet singing and dancing along the whole night! Thanks for this one!!
I’ve had the pleasure of seeing the Marshall Tucker Band live a few times. The best show was at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park. Another great concert was the RoundUp in Philly..maybe 1978. This type of music was called Southern rock.
Marshall Tucker Band I consider them one of the greatest bands of all time I can listen to them all day and pull out the guitar play along and have fun. Song you got to hear from them I should have never Started Loving You
Jamel, thank you for bringing me so much joy right now. I'm a Native American on my reservation and an elder. I remember hearing all these "olden goldies" back when they were NEW! It tickles me how much YOUR reactions are just like mine were back in the day! Keep those reactions coming!
Me too, those were and still are good memories, native from South Dakota, Jamal is an awesome host!!
I love pure reactions too! You feel like you're sharing along!
Much respect to you, our Native American Elder.💜
I hope your tribe is healthy and well.
Me too 💜😊

i saw them 2011 campaigning for Romney
Southern Rock's what the genre's called in general.
Please tell me that Dougie Gray really the sweetest man on the planet! He always comes across as an absolute gem in interviews. x
Gloria Gaddy LONG HARD RIDE !
Here in North Carolina it is Southern Rock
Southern Rock or Country Rock, "Fire on the Mountain" and "Can't You See" are two good Marshall Tucker songs!
Robert! Amen on Fire on the Mountain my all time favorite song. Many of nights dancing in Delta and Montrose Colorado in the early 80s to that song!
Not just "good".
To name 2 out of 25
@@martingrey2231 You related to Doug?? Saw them 2x in last 3 yrs opening for Skynyrd.
And Take the Highway
Imagine being between 13 and 17 years old when all of the music was coming out. Most excellent video series sir. You're a treasure on YT.
The best of times.
I was!! I'm a child of the 70's. I was born in 1962
I was born in 64'...and I too love seeing young people discovering the magic we were blessed with !!!!

It’s time to check out some Van Morrison!
“Into the Mystic”
“Moondance”
“Domino”
“Jackie Wilson said”
Literally anything off of “Astral Weeks”
No "Tupelo Honey"?😁
Rob Lovejoy , definitely. I just gave a starters list.
Any Van Morrison. Any Van Morrison is a win. But yes, Into the Mystic and Moondance. Should just do the whole Moondance album...lol.
Oh, Jamel would love “Into The Mystic”!
sarahzentexas , I’m pretty sure he would two-step to Moondance also.
The Band: "Up on Cripple Creek"; "The Weight"; "The Shape I'm In"
also 'the night they drove old dixie down"
Wayne Cullinan The Weight....is great!
Yes!!
Love The Band!
The Weight!
This is Southern Rock. A blend of country, blues and rock and roll.
I just saw someone recommend "This Ol' Cowboy" Amen to that! Also my favorite Marshall Tucker song!
This is Southern Rock. This music saved us from Disco Mid 70s
😂
Love this band.
And so it did

Thank You Brother
Shirley - Jamel's reactions make great music even better! Like you, I come here and feel better about my day. It's a great place to be.
Your ok friend
He's awesome. If only more people could be like Jamel. He sets a great example of how humanity SHOULD be.
It has helped me with my depression to! Yeah!
In the 70's Marshall Tucker, Allman Brothers, Charlie Daniels, Skynyrd, etc were called "Southern Rock".
Lynrd Skynrd
Most of them touch into Southern "Folk" Rock, as well, which is still way different than "country" music.
38 Special , Outlaws , Molly Hatchet , Silver Bullet ............
The Outlaws...Green Grass and High Tides
Much of what is labeled country music in the past 20 or so years can trace its roots to southern rock rather than old-time country music or bluegrass
The piano is the most underrated instrument in this whole song. The entire composition of this song is kind of perfect.
Great and that flute 💛💛💛💛
The flute hits next level. Pure genius for the MTB to bring the flute into their music. First class talent.
In my opinion this is as fine a song as has ever been recorded.
I just saw them tonight in Phoenix. I have to agree with you!
I have no idea how anyone could improve on this arrangement, musical artistry, lyrics and vocals. Can't be wrong.
@@rigelmoon9030 I see what you did there! 😂
I remember going to their concert and the lead singer picked me up and took me on stage with them and he held me while singing this song. I also got a signed t-shirt from them!
Doug gray had such a great voice!
That’s a feather in your rock cap!
Ten time better than disco. This group is phenomenal
Now THAT'S a STORY!!! good for you!
This was called Southern Rock back then. You need to listen to Fire on the Mountain by MTB next.
Lightning in the air gold in them Hills and it's waiting for me there
But this particular song is country rock.
Song recommendation - “We Just Disagree” by Dave Mason. There is a live Midnight Special vid as well!
Icon! Hell of a songwriter!
Oh one of my favorites
Oh Dave Mason oh God we just had such fine music and looked forward to the midnight special every week.
That is a great suggestion! Love it!
"You are every woman in the world to me" ❤
...waving hands here for any Dave Mason and his music.. please Jamal for your next ..
Jamal...check out Atlanta Rhythm Section "So into You" "Imaginary Lover" and "Spooky"
Some more Southern Rock, thanks.
Yes, please.
I'M NOT GONNA LET IT BOTHER ME TONIGHT.
We NEED this song in 2020.
Don't forget homesick by Atlanta rhythm section. I think their best one!
I knew the lyrics to "So Into You" before I ever heard it. Was in a magazine, and the lyrics intrigued me.
Art Meddaugh So Into You is great!
Country rock. Marshall Tucker Band is awesome...
Jackson Browne “Running on Empty”, “Take It Easy”, “Doctor My Eyes”
LOl. PLUS, "Lawyers In Love"
William H Plus “That Girl Could Sing”
I LOVE that track!! Who do you think he was singing about? Stevie Nicks? Emmylou Harris?
@@soapytiger maybe Linda Ronstadt - she was in on the LA rock scene during his early years
@@nicoleporter6393 Those two were a thing for awhile.
Toy Caldwell...Marine, Vietnam Veteran, and purple heart recipient.

GREAT SINGING AND OVERALL MUSICIANSHIP by the whole band.
You should check out their tune, "24 Hours at a time".
Live version off the "Where We All Belong" album. !3 minutes of good singing, solos by almost everyone and Charlie Daniels fiddlin'.
yes sir!
@@iancunningham5576 I wanted to post that 24 hours at a time is such a jam, and they were a jam band too! One of my faves!
@@chrissumner8402 yes they were. I saw them 1977, 79, 80. Awesome! And very much a Jam band.
Without a doubt my favorite flavor of rock and roll , Southern Rock . I lived in the south for many years and was stationed at Fort Bragg , North Carolina ...twice . 82nd Airborne 🇺🇸
Southern Fried Rock!! Need to check out Train, Train by Blackfoot and Flirtin’ with Disaster by Molly Hatchet!!
Molly Hatchet
Train, Train!
Whiskey Man by Molly Hatchet!
Those are 2 of my favorites! Has he not heard them? Oh my gosh! They rock!!!
Susan Jackson agreed! Not sure if he has or not but he should!!
This is the song that turned me on to southern rock. I remember where I was when I first heard this song. I working my college job in a warehouse listening to my radio.

For me, it was "24 Hours" in the early 70s maybe because being from the Houston area they played that song more.
"I ain't ever been with a woman long enough for my boots to get old"
One of the greatest lines in southern rock!
The Outlaws "Green Grass and High Tides"
Agreed. Followed IMMEDIATELY by Hurry Sundown!!!
A thousand thumbs up 👍!!!!
The 1978 live version is amazing
I requested it several days ago, hopefully he will get to it.
I keep requesting this one. Hopefully he'll do it soon!
Who else hits like before the video starts 😂. You're the best bro. Love ya, from an ole country boy.

Brings a tear to my eye singing the chorus along with Jamal.

You beat me to listing the songs but I see you like a lot of the same songs I like of theirs
@@jjsteel43 anything by Marshall Tucker is fine with me seen them a few times they were fantastic
Desert Skies......Many others.....they are great.
Yeah, they are from Spartanburg SC. My parents went to high school with them at Dorman High. Used to see Doug Grey around town occasionally

Keys here I think is Taz DiGregorio , keyboard player for Charlie Daniels Band.
I love this guy, great reaction. He love any and all music
Southern Rock masterpiece. I'm sure if Mozart was from the American south, he would have wrote this song!
One of the best Southern Rock bands. Saw them in Houston, Tx in my teens. I'm 62 now. Long time ago. Get in the car, turn it up!! Take a drive!!!
Saw them play a concert with Charlie Daniels and Greg Allman also on the bill. At the end of Greg's set, everyone came out in stage and jammed for 30 minutes.
When the CDB and the Doobie Brothers are gone, this genre will be a faded memory....
I saw the CDB with Gregg Allman and Stevie Ray Vaughn. Tore the roof off that building.
Southern fried rock and roll man this takes me back......miss those days
Don't we all!!!!!!!
I miss it too! So damned good; people don't know what they're missing listening to the crap that passes for music today.

From one Clark to another, I agree100%.
Marshall Tucker band,a great group I remember in78 when I was12.Im54 now still like.
R.I.P Caldwell boys, thanks for the memories...
As an old fart that grew up on the music of the 60's and 70's, we called this southern rock at the time.
I remember when it was new. I always thought of it as Southern Rock. I’m from Michigan.
Another great song by MT Band. You'll love it!! We use to dance country swing to this one!!
Spartanburg’s own. The original recording studio still stands in Moore SC.
Some people have forgot that soutnern rock in the 70's was big.
Molly hatchet for one.
I saw an interview with Toy Caldwell where the interviewer mentioned how big Southern Rock was and what happened? Toy said, "Just woke up one morning and it was gone".
Still is big, just to many small minds to enjoy it as it once was.
Can't forget...Lynyrd Skynryd, The Allman Brothers, etc....best music ever. Part of the sound track of my life!
@@janetfleming7269 The Outlaws: Green Grass and High Tides!
I wouldn't necessarily call this "country" music, but definitely 70's "Southern Rock", for sure.
lol all of us old hippies here listening dont need the lyrics - - we know most of the songs word for word !!
...and some of us born in the mid-late 70s as kids of those cool old hippies! lol
As a kid in the 70’s, with no lyrics, I heard “Purty” Little Love Song - .............Eight Feet Long”
Ain’t that the truth!
Yea we do
Southern Rock! Blues, country and rock sprinkled with some Soul. The best
I grew up listening to this awesome music thanks to my dad ❤️ I was born in 1978 and still listen to it
I've always thought of them as southern rock
This is one of my favorite driving tunes. Driving in the country with the sun shining and this tune on just makes you feel so good. I call it Western-Rock :-)
Now do "Jackie Blue" by the Ozark Mountain Daredevils
Yes
@UCvLHxyRxNuFP9A4gdZZE-Fg haha...While your at it check out "If You Wanna Get To Heaven" by them too.
Every time I see that I give it a like cause I just recently rediscovered it on Spotify. Hadn’t heard probably since 76. Lol

This genuine 70's country Rock
Agreed!

I saw them at a park concert. Bought a t shirt and went back stage and they all signed it. Coolest, nicest guys ever!!
"This Ol' Cowboy" is my absolute favorite Marshall Tucker Band song!
Yes!
Followed closely by Cattle Drive.
Fire on the mountain has one of the best song story's ever.
Please
You must listen to MTB bluesy "Can't You See." Riding southbound alll the way to Georgia til that train runs out of tracks.
Definitely "southern rock", but is also "country rock"! Love 'em both!!
Country Music that crossed the line into Rock & Roll. My Favorite 🤩
Yes it's country.,,,aka...Southern Rock. ALWAYS on the radio, juke box and sellout LP albums back in the day. Music is outstanding still today. If there was a Tucker Band concert announced they would fill 3 arenas at least! My fave song is "Cattle Drive

You should really check out “The Band” everything they did was amazing
Thw Weight. Great song. Take a load off Fanny.
😍
One of my absolute favorite songs J!!
Flashbacks! Thank you!
My brother would play this album all the time. Reminds me of him. Brings a smile to my face.
It's a Southern Rock ballad. (Even Charlie Daniels will say it's so.)
Mike Banks I’ve heard Charlie Daniels say that Lynyrd Skynyrd is Rock, The Allman Brothers is Blues, and The Marshall Tucker Band is Country.
Speaking of Charlie Daniels, Jamel should check out "The South's Gonna Do It Again," an incomplete education on southern rock that name-drops pretty much every band you need to know.
@@joeday4293 You are right about that! That's why I said what I said about Marshall Tucker. "And the Tucker boys are cookin' down in Caroline."
@@amar-on4fw Thanks, Amar. We can agree that Skynyrd, the Allmans and The Marshall Tucker band are all SOUTHERN.
This was southern rock at its best. It started back in the 70s. Marshall Tucker Rocked. The flute player made them stand out even more.
Blackfoot- “ Train Train “. Please check that out. Please❤️
I love this song !!!
Love all these oldies . They bring back so many good memories. Thanks Jamal. Always like your reactions.
thank you jamel for the music! Im still learning english, I love all music! This is a good way to spend my time and learn english at the same time!!! Thank you Hermano!!! Im from El Salvador in Centro America!!!
Man, Jamel, you're keeping me up late playing too much good stuff! Thank you so much for loving my generation's music! Love from Arizona!
I love your love of music. Watching you discover stuff I grew up listening to, mixed with your enthusiasm, makes me love the stuff I already love even more!
Check out "Can't you see" by MTB. Great song.
He did it
Spread the love Jamal, I’m impressed that you opened your mind to this song but I knew all along you were the guy that would, god bless
Omg, I heard this son first time at Stagecoach in 2017...still one of my best memories of my life. It just hit right.
One of my favorite songs from the 70's. I saw MTB in Portland, Oregon in the mid-late 70's. What I remember of the concert was great! 😉
“Fire On The Mountain” is consdered Marshall Tucker Band’s BEST song by a lot of people. And this is Southern Rock NOT country. You asked so I figured I’d let ya know. Great reaction video!
Nope .. Can't you See is the best
@@jlee8544 no can't you see is overrated
YES to "Can't You See"
@@marthalowe1556 I disagree with ALL of you-this song is their best-BY FAR.
Another great choice, AKA. Absolutely love this track, the vocals and arrangement are perfect. Well done, Marshall Tucker Band.
Outstanding stright forward lyrics, perfect male voice and the music is exquisite! Can't be wrong!
Always loved these guys and this song!
This reminded me of when MUSIC HAD CLASS.
I love this song, love this band. My sister and I saw them in concert back in the 1980s. I can't remember what song they opened with, but everyone was up on their feet singing and dancing along the whole night! Thanks for this one!!
Just seeing the album cover brings back so many memories. I played the hell out of this album!!!!
me too!
Southern rock is my favorite genre. Love it!!
I’ve had the pleasure of seeing the Marshall Tucker Band live a few times. The best show was at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park. Another great concert was the RoundUp in Philly..maybe 1978. This type of music was called Southern rock.
"Take the highway" and "Fire on the mountain" - The Marshall Tucker Band both a must listen
Molly Hatchet - Dreams I’ll Never See, The Price You Pay, Fall of the Peacemakers.
Yes please I second this requests lol
Most Definitely Dreams I'll Never See....That one just stays with you for days.....
Also "Gator Country," AFAIK the only southern rock diss track ever, about how awesome Florida is.
I don't recall ever hearing this on a country station, it was always on the local rock stations.
Southern Rock at it's finest.
Marshall Tucker Band I consider them one of the greatest bands of all time I can listen to them all day and pull out the guitar play along and have fun. Song you got to hear from them I should have never Started Loving You
They used to call this long haired country. Some people used to call it southern rock. This song in particular though is country.
Time for some ARS to join the mix...."So Into You", "Imaginary Lover", " Spooky".
Atlanta Rhythm Section.
Spooky for sure...I live the next town over from Doraville, where a lot of them are from
I'm not gonna let it bother me tonight!
ARS, oh yeah I remember them, great.
I hate the blues/let's go get stoned
Luv me some ARS too knew Randy back in the day.Luvd that man.Still do.
