This record changed my life. Hearing my neighbor two flights down in 1974 in Argentina beating the crap out of the drums to this album! Became friends after that!
Got this record from a friend in 1975; still have it : great music ! WHy don't they make music like this anymore nowadays ? Kind greetings from a Dutch Young girl of 57 years old, living in France !
Ha, this is great, brings back memories! I was 14 when this came out, this & In-A-Gadda- Da- Vida blew me away! My brother-in-law got stationed in Korea in '69 and left me his vast record collection, turned me on to Velvet Underground, 13th Floor Elevators, Al Kooper's BS&T, Quicksilver, all excellent stuff that opened my eyes and ears for a music appreciation that lasts to today!
LO TENGO GRABADO EN MI P.C. LO ESCUCHE HACE YA MUCHOS AÑOS CUANDO FUI UN ADOLESCENTE, HOY TENGO 73 PIRULOS Y CADA TANTO M DELEITO AL ESCUCHARLO NUEVAMENTE, GRACIAS A QUIEN LO SUBIO, SOY DE ARGENTINA
La mejor versión de una canción de R&B de todos los tiempos; me encantan, por ejemplo, Rapsodia Bohemia y Escalera al Cielo, pero esta pieza de Rare Earth es por lejos lo mejor en todo. Lo curioso es que en la Argentina jamás supimos de Rare Earth, acaso solo en Buenos Aires. Yo descubrí esta joya a fines de los 90 porque un amigo me regaló un CD de un compilado de Revista Noticias, jaja! El último corte de ese CD era esta canción. Pasaron algunos años hasta que pude apreciar realmente a este diamante. Por desgracia hasta ahora no aparece un video completo de la banda tocando esta obra. Por supuesto, con el paso de los años logré conseguir varios vinilos de la banda, incluido esta pieza. Naturalmente, me volví fanático de la banda.
Haven't heard any deliberate instrumental harmony like this in my life. When they hit I feel some incredible sense of wellbeing...extra ecstasy, if you like. You almost touch the feelings...it's greeeaaat!
One of BEST LIVE performances of all times - along with, off top of my head, In Memory of Elizabeth Reed - Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore East. Song, Voices, Drums, Bass, Hammond, Sound, Mix, it's just f'in everything
Masterpiece my late Mother use to play this in the 70's South Chicago when I was growing up and I use to get tired of hearing it, now I'm 55 and can't get enough of hearing it!!
it was like yesterday. I was playing this long version record----now a thing of the past, on the stereo back in 1971 in san Francisco, smoking panama red, and joined the marines July 12th 1971. now its 2016-retired and still strong!
This hammond B3 solo is one of the best ever made , with Emerson ( ELP ) , Tom Foster ( Santana) and Rick Wakeman ( YES) ....He got all the sounds on his instrument and knows how he can drive them ...Great musicians ! Great Album ....Thanks CrisVangel to give us this full version
Flashback indeed. I wore out this album back in '72 while a sophmore in High School. NO... my '68 Mustang did not have an 8 track. Thank You, for taking me back. !! Cuban Dave still grooving. lol
Ah! I still remember partying, getting toasted and listening to this with strobelights & colorbar going at the same time, what a "Trip" that was back in the day!, I,m so glad I grew up in the 60's and 70's with all this great music, ;) thanks for posting it!:)
I had a custom built speaker system and a 10 channel color organ system. Most fun I ever had building stereo gear. I listened to this, Innagaddavida and Light My Fire among othersn for hours on end.
Chris Vangel1958....thank you..... I haven't heard this long version in decades! I love it. I wore this record out, back in the day. Listening to this and Santana, and Black Sabbath, Three Dog Night...man..... It's 1970 all over again!
THIS CUT IS A REAL SHOW STOPPER, NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE OR WHAT YOU'RE DOING, WHEN THIS IS PLAYED ATTENTION SHIFTS AND YOU ARE DRAWN AWAY INTO A FRENZIED MODE OF THOUGHT WHERE THERE IS FOR A TIME NO CARES, YOUR MIND IS FREED UP, THAT'S WHAT "GET READY" DOES TO YOU, YES EVEN TODAY. SO MANY OF MY FRIENDS DON'T HAVE THIS IN THEIR COLLECTION AND ARE ALWAYS SEEKING ME TO MAKE COPIES SO THEY TOO CAN "GET READY" TO GET IN THAT FRENZIED MODE OF THOUGHT ALL OVER AGAIN. KEEP "GETTIN READY", 49 YEARS HASN'T STOPPED IT YET!!!!
@@presgallagher17 It was my Honor to have served..Even after all those years when I lay and listen to this song I can still smell the sand bag walls around my bunk..
Aloha from Hawaii 🏝️ I'm 64 now and remember this growing up as a teen in Miami, that would of made me 13 turning 14, I thought this came out in 1970. They played at the stadium 🏟️ and we could hear them pretty good about a block or 2 away. Any long song in Rock music is always good 🎵🎶
I played this at midnight on a turntable on New Year's Eve in 1987-88 at the house I moved into after I finally moved out of my parents. 20 minutes of not having to man the turntable. Just wandering around the house, maintaining law & order, smokin' bowls and drinking champagne. Great memories.
I'm 58. My mother played this all the time. Along with the Abraxas album by Santana, the Green River album by CCR (which I teethed on by chewing the edges of the cover every time she played it). All great music I still enjoy today.
Jajaja tengo 21 años y también he pensado así Es una música que evoca cosas distintas. Pero, aún así no es bueno cerrarse. Hay re buenos artistas actualmente, y lo bueno es disfrutar y pasarla bien con cualquier música c: Saludos desde Chile.
Coming home from the 'burbs on Michigan Ave. (Detroit) in (late 1980's? 1990's?) I heard on "oldies" radio that Rare Earth was to appear at the festivals in Hart Plaza. Screw going home, head downtown. Parked 10 blocks away and made it on time (9:00 p.m., Sunday). Elbow to ass-hole people in Hart Plaza (S.R.O.). And the band COOKED! The 20+ min. version of this tune, with the extended solos by each musician. Was young and crazy back then; ain't young anymore.
This brings back fun times. Many of us were just transitioning from 45s to LP. We had no idea this song was so long in a time of am stations. Thanks for the memory blast!
I first heard this song when I was in tenth grade,the teacher played for the class room,I don't remember why but what makes me remember this is the drummer,one of the best,the drum beats and the rythem👍👍👌👌
En México había una estación de radio que se llamaba "Vibraciones" y su presentador con una voz pastosa anunciaba a los grupos que se presentarían en la siguiente hora... " esta noche nos acompaña "la Bruja Cosmica" " Yes" "Ten Years Afther" y "Rare Earth" . Como olvidar esas transmisiones de radio para toda la banda rockera que al fin y al cabo no perteneciamos a la época de estos grandes exponentes. Gracias a esta música me volví melomano. Una felicitación para el vale que subió el tema.
El inicio me parece cada vez mas genial! Nos bajabamos de los zuecos altos y descalzas bailabamos revoleando la cabeza los 20' 😂❤Una Joya!!! Que disfruto todavia a mis 62 años😊❤
In my "Motown: Covers and covering!" playlist with another version by The Supremes. The single edit was all over AM radio when I first started listening. Thanks for the upload!
My Father chose this over a Stones album because it looked like a nap sac.This side of the whole vinyl We'd all get up and dance. Love this tune and hard to find anything on it other than a 2 minute version,which sucks! Rare Earth is indeed rare and hard to find now,so I jammed for the whole tune once again 40+ years later! ;) Thank you so much!!!
Escuchando esta linda música empiezo a viajar por el túnel del tiempo . Me transporto a una época pasada...Voy caminando con unos blue Jens bien apretados con el pelo largo y debajo de mis brazos llevo algunos long play o vinilos como los llaman ahora , me han invitado a una fiesta (carrete ) en la casa de alguno de mis amigos donde disfrutaremos escuchando y bailado al ritmo del Rock compartiendo con una hermosa lolita....Que tiempos aquellos cuando nos divertíamos sanamente , cuando las mujeres eran unas verdaderas princesas que eran cortejadas por unos verdaderos caballeros. Oh...! Cómo a pasado el tiempo a mis 67 años todavía esta música me hace bivrar de emoción , gracias a la magia que nos transporta a recordar la época dorada... Cuando nuestra única droga era escuchar estas lindas melodías ...Merci beaucoup...! Thank you so much...! .............. . Luis 🙂👍❤🇨🇱💟👌✌
Un gran tema que bailabamos en chile,en los setenta,con el pelo largo,y esa libertad deseada,de ser uno,el despertar,la rebeldia a todo lo impuesto,y lo tradicional,queriamos cambiar todo,nada nos gustaba,solo lamusica era nuestro espacio y nuestra expresion de jovenes,viva el rock...
I have stated this opinion time and time again, the drum solos by Pete Rivera in get ready is one of the greatest in music history, miss you Pete, and God bless you!!!
For those wondering, the musicians are lead vocalist-drummer Pete Rivera, guitarist-backing vocalist Rod Richards, bassist John Parrish, keyboardist Kenny James, and saxophonist-flutist-backing vocalist Gil Bridges.
Does anyone wonder what ever happened to these guys? Guess what, they're still around and playing! They put on a good show at the Blues Fest in London, ON August 28/16. Keep your eyes open and ears tuned, they may come to your town saying get ready 'cause here we come! Another great classic tune from days gone by.
UFF, Definitivamente una de las 3 Mejores Rolas de Todos los Tiempos; ponía mi LP cuando fuí estudiante (ahora tengo 59) y pues ahora, la disfruto tanto ó mas. Es una concepción del ritmo verdaderamente impresionante. Saludos a todos los fans de ésta Insuperable Rola.
El primer dia que la escuche me gusto hasta hoy la sigo escuchando 5decadas buenas baladas no solo esas muchas mas de ese tiempo que no volberan nunca...
Desde mediados de 1970 este fabuloso tema comienza a invadir amigablemente el audio de las radioemisoras nacionales . Bella epoca de la " Revolucion de las Flores " . Saludos desde Chile !
one of those songs that sticks with you. I was 16 listening to this early 70's on 8 track player under dash of my car. Great time to be alive in this country don't let anyone tell you any different.
Qué recuerdos!!! Hoy a mis 58 disfuto tanto de este tema como cuando era un adolescente de 12, 🤣 recuerdo en los bailes de colegio, hacíamos su círculo y al ritmo de ésta canción nos desarmabamos como locos por más de 20 minutos 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
Absolutly perfect work-out between different Genres in these times-sooo good .All members of the band are doing perfectly well-brilliant-I really get ready for this..........
wow compadre temazo.. en mi adolescencia (años 80) recorrí muchas fiestas en Santiago con un primo amante del rock y en todas estuvo presente este temon, ahí salían los rockeros a vacilar, siempre fue el pick de las fiestas.. larga vida al rock.. (mas aun es una canción de amor cantada como debe ser: EN UN TONO ROCK) ver traducción..!!
Tremendo tema !!!! tambien lo oigo cada tanto, a pesar de los años y de los miles de hits transcurridos en un sin fin de géneros musicales, uno siempre cae en la buena musica. Mas de 20 minutos de disfrute de mente, oidos y alma .
Amigo está mescla de Jass,Blus y Rock le dan un sonido muy original à este tema....Un recuerdo de esta gran banda mientras más lo escucho mas me gusta.... Luis
No tan solo buenos recuerdos. Cada vez que escucho este tema descubro nuevos sonidos y sensaciones que me llenan de energia. Fué uno de mis favoritos, infaltable en los malones quinceañeros. Lo increible es que lo bailábamos completo. ¡Que gran grupo! músicos geniales. Algo parecido a la musica electrónica de hoy donde la gente se conecta y nada mas importa.......................solo musica
CrisVangel1958 : I saw Rare Earth at the Big Bam Summer Show at Garrett Collesium, in Montgomery, Alabama, in the summer of 1969. They played this song. The drummer broke two, or three, or maybe even four drumsticks, and grabbed new ones and didn't even seem to skip a beat. Thank you for posting this video.
One of the best tracks of the 70's with the exceptional drum solo of Peter Rivera.
Did somebody say Keep On Rocking? This is a great song
This record changed my life. Hearing my neighbor two flights down in 1974 in Argentina beating the crap out of the drums to this album! Became friends after that!
DaNang Air Base ‘70-‘71 Best era for great music. Listened to this music all the time.
Got this record from a friend in 1975; still have it : great music ! WHy don't they make music like this anymore nowadays ? Kind greetings from a Dutch Young girl of 57 years old, living in France !
Because their not talented enough theses days as when I was Rare Earth's age
You will feel the same way hearing this at 61, as you did when you first heard this at 16. Trust me.
Awesome tune.
I think 🙂👌👍✌
74 and still loving it 💕
Oh yeah. I'm 64 and still love it!
You're absolutely right. I'm 70 and I still love this song.
I'm 73, everything is still in my head
Went on a natural high no stimulants with this piece. Awesome song til this day. Tamborine rocked. These guys had soul. Piano fading in rocked.
Ha, this is great, brings back memories! I was 14 when this came out, this & In-A-Gadda- Da- Vida blew me away!

Felicidades !! Dice Donald Trump que vas a durar 30+ anos mas...El siempre cumple lo que dice
A los 60 aun lo disfruto pero, ya no hay Panama Red ni Colitas mexicanas, solo cosas
semi-sinteticas y casi artificiales. Ohh Colombia ...I miss You.
One of the best damn songs ever recorded. Period. I have spoken.
hehehehehehe - too cute
I owned the vinyl album when I was a kid back in the early seventies. Totally loved it! Quite a listening experience.
Me too!
I still this album along with many more vinyls
I will be 80yrs young this july 5th 2001 and i'm still jiving too this tune.⌚has been on my side.
Still sounds as fresh as when I first heard it all those many years ago! Highly under rated! Love Rare Earth!

Rare Earth is one of my all time favorites.
They are the first white band to be signed by Motown records
They too are my favorite
Con este tema empezaba el baile en mi barrio ...los solos son tremendos ...cada tanto lo escucho me encanta y me recuerda mi juventud..
Ik ben nu 65 jaar en luister al 50 jaar naar dit stuk muziek. Steengoed.
Masterpiece my late Mother use to play this in the 70's South Chicago when I was growing up and I use to get tired of hearing it, now I'm 55 and can't get enough of hearing it!!
Norman Whitfield...!
I'm there man!
Wonderful isn't it. I miss the early 70's music......ALL of it.
OOOOH YEAH, THE WEST SIDE OF CHICAGO WAS ROCKING TOO, SPEAKERS HANGING OUT THE WINDOW OOOH YEAH.

.. Vale ya lo sé pero no me lo había fumado
Just like I did back then, I keep replaying the transition from the slow entry into the fast tempo.Brings back decades of memories!
it was like yesterday. I was playing this long version record----now a thing of the past, on the stereo back in 1971 in san Francisco, smoking panama red, and joined the marines July 12th 1971. now its 2016-retired and still strong!
God bless you.
same to you my friend!
thanks and God bless you. By the way do you have any of that Panama Red left?
@ Jack Sweeny. Haha! I gave up the weed back in 1975. was some good stuff though. take care friend.
71 in The City was a groovy place to be-I was only 10 but I felt the vibe and listened to K101 Radio and KFRC and then KSAN and in the 70 KMEL
Rare Earth Takes back to 1970,s and my struggle to get out My deep Blues In My Mind and Heart . Jake P Colorado
if you don't know about rare Earth. smoke a joint , then you will understand. I grew up , with them. ultimate music by Rare Earth. I love them boys.

I have stated this opinion time and time again, the drum solos by Pete Rivera in get ready is one of the greatest in music history, miss you Pete, and God bless you!!!
The best band ever, and this one of their many KILLER tunes.
el grupo Tierra Rara se presento en Venezuela !!! toco este exitazo, hermosos años 70s
For those wondering, the musicians are lead vocalist-drummer Pete Rivera, guitarist-backing vocalist Rod Richards, bassist John Parrish, keyboardist Kenny James, and saxophonist-flutist-backing vocalist Gil Bridges.
Right on brother these guys were tight!
All extremely talented!!!!
jODERRR, qué temazo, de la mejor época del rock. Long live rockn'roll
Those were the days when musicians knew what they were doing with the instruments they played !!!
Rare Earth is bad ass !! how many 12 year old kids can say they had Mr Eddie Guzman as their neighbor in Michigan !! God bless !!
Does anyone wonder what ever happened to these guys? Guess what, they're still around and playing! They put on a good show at the Blues Fest in London, ON August 28/16. Keep your eyes open and ears tuned, they may come to your town saying get ready 'cause here we come! Another great classic tune from days gone by.

I have it on vinyl too. Greatest bass solo ever. Thanks for posting
Tremendo tema !!!! tambien lo oigo cada tanto, a pesar de los años y de los miles de hits transcurridos en un sin fin de géneros musicales, uno siempre cae en la buena musica. Mas de 20 minutos de disfrute de mente, oidos y alma .
Amigo está mescla de Jass,Blus y Rock le dan un sonido muy original à este tema....Un recuerdo de esta gran banda mientras más lo escucho mas me gusta....

Gracias a mi hermano mayor conocí este tema hace varios años ya, imposible q te aburre, una verdadera joya del Rock, gracias por compartirlo.
Hermosa! Sin lugar a dudas un clásico de principios de los 70's de mis favoritas, gracias por subir el vídeo
Increible uno de los mejores Long Plays de la historia. Bravo!!!!
No tan solo buenos recuerdos. Cada vez que escucho este tema descubro nuevos sonidos y sensaciones que me llenan de energia. Fué uno de mis favoritos, infaltable en los malones quinceañeros. Lo increible es que lo bailábamos completo. ¡Que gran grupo! músicos geniales. Algo parecido a la musica electrónica de hoy donde la gente se conecta y nada mas importa.......................solo musica
Old souvenir! Great souvenir!
The miking on the snare is insane. Thanks for sharing.
Rare Earth and Grand Funk, the drummers sing!
La época de las grandes bandas...fue su mejor obra maestra...los solos de cada instrumentos muy buenos....
CrisVangel1958 : I saw Rare Earth at the Big Bam Summer Show at Garrett Collesium, in Montgomery, Alabama, in the summer of 1969. They played this song. The drummer broke two, or three, or maybe even four drumsticks, and grabbed new ones and didn't even seem to skip a beat. Thank you for posting this video.
pure Motown!!!!! such a great band
Sorry this group was loooooong time before Motown..
Used to have this on vinyl. Loved playing the looooooong version. Now have it on a Spotify customized playlist.
Estoy escuchando este temazo en un super equipo de musica ......🤘👍✌️💃🕺El Rock nunca va ha morir 👍🏾
