October 28, 2024. 72 year old geezer retired and living in Mexico. This tune turned up today on a "Chill Mix" Apple Music made for me. Unbelievably wonderful.
The soundtrack to one of the best times in my life, swinging in a hammock on a tiny beach on Ko Phangan at sunset, with this music playing and friends all around.
I actually got chills when the trombone started and the audience finally realized what the song was. And it sounds just as perfect as it does on the album. I played this for my aging parents (I’m 45) when I took them to Cape Cod- I popped this on as we travelled to the beach. It was a sunny day with just a little breeze- my mom loved it, but dad didn’t say much. Mom shocked me when she sang along with the second line of the words- I didn’t know before then that the lyrics are sampled from an old song she happened to know. It was a beautiful day. I always try to play music to fit the mood when I’m driving them somewhere far- I played them an album by Peace Orchestra as we were driving through Death Valley, and some ORB as we drove through Joshua Tree State Park. Among other things. Thanks so much for posting this- I lost my copy of the album when I got divorced in 2008, and I’ve been really missing it. Stay safe and healthy!
This very tune, will be the one I will be playing at the beach, to celebrate the end of the quarantine in 2020, somewhere on a cypriot beach, with empty sand dunes and salty air...
I woke up one night with this time in my head and I couldn’t remember the lyrics or title. I would call people and hum the tune hoping someone would know the words, not like there were many to remember! I became anxious after a few months that I may never figure out my dream song. Then it was the last song in my palates class one Friday, there it was. Tears of joy accompanied me on my last downward dog and coming to prayer stance… I am a fulfilled woman
For years I have made girlfriends giggle while playing this during 'Shexxxy times' by adding my own little lyrics... If you're fond of wet boobs and salty hair, Little white droplets over here and there.... 😉🥴🤣🤣 Also, Groove Armada - At The River (Mvinaround's less cake edit) Is a good mix, give it a go! (UA-cam) 👍 😎🇬🇧
Oh Yes and also Spooky my Son and I were chatting over t"interweb 2 days ago I had lost touch and couldn't "name that tune," I knew he would know as 20 years ago he bought me "Chilled Ibeza" as i had been trying to find a copy of "at the river" That was two days ago and on BBC Breakfast guest were "Groove Armada" Bit spooky that but things like that happen to me quite a lot.
This one is on my Top 10 list of the best songs I'd ever heard, I like all the versions and I hear it every day. I feel reborn when I hear this song, and floating way to a pleasant place. The song is a piece of Heaven and it's a great celebration of life.
Groove Armadas music is brilliant, it doesn’t always translate to live shows energy and visuals with stage presence- this is one of my favorites none the less.
Waaaay back in the other century… when I was young… 5th grade band… I played the T-Bone. Switched the next year to trumpet because of riding the bus. Always in someone’s way. Can’t beat the mid-tone of the bones. Right between the trumpets and the baritone. Can hit most of booth’s range. ❤️ A year behind the rest? I sat first chair in trumpet section. 😝😎💪
Your playing the trombone takes me back to the 1970's and 1980's and puts me back in the Drivers seat of playing the Trombone. I miss the Brass, 4 years plus of formal trombone and the sheet music, but the sound when orchestrated well was just so perfecto! People, wake up! Groove Armada is all I'll DJ
This iconic tune still send shivvas up me spine mon........Great respect & LUV to Groove Armada........your music has forever found a place in our heart & soul !
@@marcfasten3895 His real name is Andy Cocup. I played with him in Doncaster Youth Jazz Orchestra years ago. He was even that tall at 15 haha. Really nice guy. I remember he was into Chris Barber's style of trombone playing.
This is the song that brings me peace when its all confusing. Its a song that i listen at least from 2002... Its reminds me some random beach at sunrise time.
My lasting memory of them is upstaging Peter Gabriel on Jools Holland. Next to last act with PG supposed to be finishing as "the big act". Didn't work out that way!
Quite possibly one of the classic 90's unforgettable tunes. I remember listening to this at work in a funeral home while pregnant with my daughter who just turned 20. I locked the door at work as was feeling very sick while eating my bran scone. Some absurd thing called the burry man was active in the town and I was not ready to meet this weird thing as was from Edinburgh and was only in town for a week. That man still terrifies me to this day. Reminds me of something out the wicker man. It can **** right off . Stay away from South Queensferry 😂😂😂😂
Heard this live years ago when they played st James in Auckland. I was hanging out so badly for this and they played it as an encore. I cried. Such a beautiful song.
I expect many people won't believe me, but I'll tell you a true story. I helped, in a significant way, to break this record in the way that it did, at the time it did. I was a very, very low-level DJ for a few years from the mid to late 90s. I worked as a duty manager at a brilliant little bar on Portobello Road in London called the Beat Bar. We had DJs playing records every night and throughout the day on weekends. I played Friday night and Saturday daytime. I had picked up this record as a 7-inch single from a small, very niche and totally brilliant independent shop I used to frequent. I can't for the life of me remember what it was called - I'm now 54 and have been out of the game for a long time and almost certainly some disco damage has done for some of my memory cells. Anyway, I think this shop was partly run (or at least associated with in some way) by one of the guys from The Amalgamation of Soundz, who were a duo who put out some brilliant stuff, some of which was in a similar vein to this track. Anyway, I had the record and started playing it. A lot. It's unbelievably brilliant, obviously. Anyway to the point of my comment here: one night after an evening at the Beat Bar I went an after-party at someone's house. I can't remember whose house it was, but a friend of mine, Adam, who also worked with me at the bar, was in a social circle that included Norman Cook and Zoe Ball. They were at the party; I played some records at some point, including this gem, and they were both blown away by it. The following week they started giving it airtime, and it blew up. The rest, as they say, is history.
Just a perfect song to hold somebody you love in your arms and enjoy life on a beach while sunset. To all the people we‘ve lost and all the people we have the privilege to share memorable times with.
a Detroit DJ of old, I'd close with this on every Thursday night/morning. Since those table days, I've never imagined anything quite like a GA cut to make a statement, with no words.

My favourite musical memory will forever be, Groove Armada at Boomtown 2019, with their blissful beats washing over a joyful jubilant crowd, that late afternoon / early evening time slot is a magical space.. much in the way of musical healing took place, dancing barefoot in that special place 💞 thank you GA for the emotional support during lockdown 😘✌😜🥳
Just love this 😎 ..... GA doing what GA do best chill out music sublime great sample of Betty Paige "Old Cape Cod" .... Saw them doing this amongst other classics @ All Together Now festival August 2022 😎✌️.
bliss!!... I thought this was a mish mash of samples, until I saw this.. take me away to those turquoise seas, mild honey golden sun, fine sands and gentle sea breeze like 2020 didn't exist
if you are feeling stressed and anxious in these crazy times of 2020. Close your eyes take a deep breath and listen to this magnificent song, the ultimate chill tune. Watergate bay Cornwall, such memories!
First time I ever heard of this group and the first song I heard by them. Simply marvelous music. How much great music is out there that our ears have never heard?

lincolncity9 that's what I'm talking about! :) every part of our lives is amazing and we just have to seize it. I'm 30 and I still write journals so, every time I read something that has happened yrs ago, I'm thinking: man, I just have to keep doing this; fill my life with good stories
People don't realise how hard it is to play the trombone well. It's not like a guitar, it doesn't have frets...the quality of the tone is entirely dependent on the touch of the player and the correct positioning of the mouth and sliding piece....this is wonderful, wonderful playing...and the percussionist is pretty bloody good too!
I was there working the bar!!!
@@nicko9969 rightttttttttt

Did you find out that the song was called Old Cape Cod? What a coincidence!
@@9regorio I did,, thank you 🙂
Thank for you for sharing, such a lovely memory!
@@YTIsTakingOverMyLife 🙂❤️
Old Cape Cod is a superb song by the late and much regretted Patti Page. Give it a chance, it's worth its salt (ludicrous punt intended).
iF i MAY SAY SO WHAT A TRACK TO TAKE YOUR MIND OFF THE RECENT NONSENSE SURROUNDING THE UK
Right when that slide trombone hits, the crowd just knew they were gonna hear a timeless gem!
Groove Armada and Massive Attack. Imagine !
Thats happened ! Need rid of Risky now
With spoon
Blimey . Thats happened . Come on kids

It's hard to believe this song is 20 years old. It still sounds brilliant and always will.
It's a LOT older than 20 years old.

There is a top gear episode featuring this song, I just don’t remember which one!
This very tune, will be the one I will be playing at the beach, to celebrate the end of the quarantine in 2020, somewhere on a cypriot beach, with empty sand dunes and salty air...
I'm listening to this during quarantine and feel like I'm at that beach already
hells yes.

Enjoy. July now looks like nobody's going on holiday abroad for a while

Give us a GA concert in EU... maybe Sept 2020, for a better year, since so far 4/20 it's been just shitty
Why have I just sobbed to this
I’m here from the year 2794 and this song still kicks ass
The trombone solo totally makes this song what it is - just brilliant.
This group should be known in all over the world.
The trombone gives this song a sensuous feel. Such a gorgeous song.
Yes the trombone sounds so great and really adds to this song .
Oh Yes and also Spooky my Son and I were chatting over t"interweb 2 days ago I had lost touch and couldn't "name that tune," I knew he would know as 20 years ago he bought me "Chilled Ibeza" as i had been trying to find a copy of "at the river"

Svein Grimstad I’ve never enjoyed a live version of a song more than this
You might like the original song even better: "Old Cape Cod."
That's how I feel about Fogma
Groove Armadas music is brilliant, it doesn’t always translate to live shows energy and visuals with stage presence- this is one of my favorites none the less.
Was never a fan of live recordings, but ya know what.. I'm a fan of this. ❤️❤️❤️
"If you're fond of sand dunes and salty air...." :)
Good memories and pure bliss. :)
they took me another world
I'll say it again. Trombone dude went in on this. 3 years later I am still rocking this.
These guys are real musicians.
Yes Sir :)

Nowt better than Groove Armada when feeling low.
Still here!

Takes me to another place

Makes me wanna be in another place.
I am 15, and i discovered this song, when my dad was driving me from airport at 2 AM, it is such a vibe😍😍
Gotta love dads
One of the best chill-out beat out there. This track always on my list.

I never get tired of watching and listening to this, just fantastic!
Being the band kid that took on the Trombone paid off dividends for this guy, the band, and mostly us to have heard him get down like he did.
No. 1 chill out song! And what I love most is how the band and the crowd are so into it. it's just musical bliss...
