Pat is a rock legend and a guitar god. First got into Pat back in '77 when I bought his second album 'Makin Magic'. From that point on I have been a massive fan.
MM is a superb LP. Pat more versatile than people realize. Yes, he does the party rocker "Snortin' Whiskey," for instance, but he also did an exquisite cover of Bob Marley's "Is this Love," from CRASH & BURN.
Imagine a world where songs like this were blasting over the airwaves. I lived in that world and it was awesome. Have fun growing up on rap music, kiddies.
Seen him twice. Once with Pat Thrall. They were between Alcatraz and Ted Nugent headlined. The Pat Travers Band mopped the floor with everyone. Honestly one of the best shows I've ever seen.
Such a great closing track to one of the best live albums ever!! MARS, PAT AND TOMMY...THANK YOU, GOOD NIGHT EVERYBODY!!! Not a lot of people reacting to Pat Travers, this is very cool, great reaction, thanks! If you like this then you'd certainly like Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush, check out What's Next, IV and the first live album.
Pat Travers is the reason I busted my ass as kid to buy my first Les Paul. I spent my days teaching myself his tone and figuring him out. I smiled 59 years old now still rocking to Sir Travers.I never looked back.
Awesome live performance! What memories - I saw Pat Travers on this tour in 1979 in Albuquerque, New Mexico on Halloween night Oct 31 with...get this..Sammy Hagar and the Scorpions. Pat Travers was atomic tight and precise! A great way to close out the 70's decade!
The best is to listen to this entire album start to finish. Great album. One of my all time favourites. Hooked on Music... Gettin Betta ... Heat in the street.. are some other strong cuts. I saw them live in 1978 opening for Cheap Trick, and PTB blew CT off the stage. Mars Cowling on bass was a big influence as a young bassist. Cheers.
My first time here. This track has always been as favorite. Great mix for a live performance from the 70s. my favorite live drum performance ever. Pat was a very energetic and charismatic rocker with chops to astound the ears and groove to get you moving! I had to subscribe after seeing how the music moved you in the moment and then nearly to tears when you reflected upon it, I can really relate to that!!!! have you heard of Frank Marino?
I saw The Pat Travers Band in Omaha,Nebraska 1980. They were awesome live!!! You should check out Snortin’ Whiskey and Drinkin’ Cocain Live, it rocks!!! Thanks

Been a huge fan for years, and seen them numerous times live. Always an fantastic show. All of Pat's bands are tight. Have to be to play his music. The structure of his songs from the 70's and early 80's are so far from a rock "formula", there are so many parts to each song. As a guitarist, learning one of Pat's classic songs is like learning two or three normal rock tunes.
I saw him in San Diego in the early 80s and he was having technical difficulties with his equipment. He took his guitar off and THREW it across the stage. He went to the microphone and "be back in a minute." Went off stage and came back about twenty minutes later and gave a monstrously kick ass show to make up for it. Top man! 🎵🎶🎵👍
Hahaa, brings me back to the days I just learned to drink beer. My dad loved music like this. We drank a beer (or two) can't remember that and in the background music like this and some Status Quo and CCR. This is the kind of music where my metal roots come from.
I have seen Pat at least 7 times.... starting in the early 80's backing up Aerosmith in Detroit...and even in a bar in my home town of Windsor Ontario Canada...also many Bluesfests here in this city....once he had a free session meet and greet guitar clinic, in about 2008...I met him, and had a picture taken with him .....In the 70's when I began listening to him...I wore out all those albums....This guy is another Canadian gem....who moved around and picked up great players, who all eventually quit on him to go on to bigger stardom...like Tommy Aldridge ( Whitesnake, Black Oak Arkansas, Ozzy Osbourne etc.)....Nicko McBrain ( Iron Maiden ) ....Pat Thrall( Glenn Hughes )....I know he resides in Florida and promotes more a blues sound than metal, anymore....but man ...he is one of the Greatest in my Book !!!.
Ruben, glad you got a chance to finally check out Pat Travers! That live album is a KILLER! Get this: what is so cool/killer about this point in Pat's career is that his band includes some of the best players in Rock! He plays co-lead guitar with none other than Pat Thrall! So that is an insane dual -guitar attack that crushes all over the live album and his studio albums, during this time. Also, his rhythm section is monster! Tommy Aldrige on drums (!! He went on to play with Ozzy Osborne after leaving PTB) and Mars Cowling on bass! Such a powerful group! Yes, check out that whole album and his studio albums with this band, "Heat In the Street" and "Crash and Burn"!
Your welcome Ruben yes been a fan since the early 80,s yes seen him live a couple of times but my favorite band is rush love your reaction to rush yes they are #1
Heat in the street is another good one. Maybe listen to some Tommy Bolin also he did want album with deep purple come taste the band and he's got a bunch of solo stuff and collaborations. He died back in 76 or 77 but what little music that he did is worth listening to
I thought this was a forgotten band. I never hear it played and never hear anyone mention them. I think the first time I heard of them was from a buddy who put on Hammerhead. That hooked me in for a while but it's not a band that stayed with me.
Please do reaction to two other songs on that "Go For What You Know" album: "Makin' Magic" & "Heat in the Street". Those two songs happen just before "It Makes No Difference" on the album and they are linked; that is, they segueway into each other, so there's no break between them. If you wanted to do a two-fer, that would be a great one! Check it out, you'll love it!
Tommy payed double peddle...I love Mars or bass for his off beat vibe and Thrall on lead. PT on rhythm of them next great generation bands that never was. As a 20 year old at the time it was so obvious.
Oh man, the memories from WAY back in the day, although this particular song never did that much for me. I would HIGHLY recommend you check out his song 'Bridge of Sighs', it is way different than this and is one of the most hypnotic songs I've ever heard, more along the lines of Pink Floyd: ua-cam.com/video/sBQXeb5iJCg/v-deo.html Enjoy!
Pat Travers is such a criminally underrated guitarist.

One of my favorites! Pat is super amazing and a really nice and down to earth guy!
Pat Travers is my fav guitarist ever....
along with Robin Trower. I subbed.
Tommy Aldridge is a nuclear powerplant with huge hair. Great double bass drummer. This whole album is great.

That was insane! Never heard of this band before, reminds me a little bit of Rush
I will definitely check out more!
Pat is my neighbor!! Lives two houses down...
I will show him this video!
@@Ucfknightlinepodcasttube Say hello to him and let him know the "Pink Strat" is in perfect condition and guarded well. ;)
Believe me you have stumbled upon a true great. Tons of albums in his catalogue many of which are legendary. Enjoy.

Travis is one of my favorite he's got a string of hits and albums

Rock and roll at its finest. Not a fan, but mad respect to Pat and the boys.
Hahaa, brings me back to the days I just learned to drink beer. My dad loved music like this. We drank a beer (or two) can't remember that and in the background music like this and some Status Quo and CCR. This is the kind of music where my metal roots come from.
Saw Pat Travers open for Rush 77 78 at the Long Beach Arena. Think it was Rush's Hemispheres tour. Blew me away, been a fan since.
Probly my favorite album
Classic Pat! He has a new album out called "The art of time travel" it's Great.
Nice reaction. This IS a great song, but I like 6 of the others on this album even more.
Possibly after Thin Lizzy's Live and Dangerous the tightest live rock album ever captured. PT's band - a powerhouse lineup - in top form.
nice ! the albums makin magic and putting it straight are really good also
I have seen Pat at least 7 times.... starting in the early 80's backing up Aerosmith in Detroit...and even in a bar in my home town of Windsor Ontario Canada...also many Bluesfests here in this city....once he had a free session meet and greet guitar clinic, in about 2008...I met him, and had a picture taken with him .....In the 70's when I began listening to him...I wore out all those albums....This guy is another Canadian gem....who moved around and picked up great players, who all eventually quit on him to go on to bigger stardom...like Tommy Aldridge ( Whitesnake, Black Oak Arkansas, Ozzy Osbourne etc.)....Nicko McBrain ( Iron Maiden ) ....Pat Thrall( Glenn Hughes )....I know he resides in Florida and promotes more a blues sound than metal, anymore....but man ...he is one of the Greatest in my Book !!!.
Pat was my first concert in 81, opened for Rainbow….. one of my favorites till this day!
that is THE Pat Travers song
Hooked on Music 1976 when he was in London
3 piece with Mars Cowling and Nico McBain Iron Madden Drummer

He also did a album with Carmine Appice
Heat in the street is another good one.
Maybe listen to some Tommy Bolin also he did want album with deep purple come taste the band and he's got a bunch of solo stuff and collaborations. He died back in 76 or 77 but what little music that he did is worth listening to

Great Channel by the way

Same with Hooked On Music and Gettin' Betta. I always loved how Hooked rolled right into Gettin' Betta.
If you like Pat Travers you'll probably also like Robin trower
Pat also sings which makes him more incredible. Try Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush Live- I'm a King Bee
PT GUITAR HERO !
Tommy payed double peddle...I love Mars or bass for his off beat vibe and Thrall on lead. PT on rhythm of them next great generation bands that never was. As a 20 year old at the time it was so obvious.
Thrall such a complimentary lead. If you notice gives PT space in rhythm aka JH imnfluence
Jack the joker - venus and mars please.
Attempt #59.
listen to RIOT- road racing as god as this fan of both
Pat traverse yes west mich bpy seen pat with rush 78 muskeegan mich my fav prog is life
P.T. ROXX! PERIOD!
NOW.... go listen to Life In London or Gettin' Betta'
I thought it was recorded in London.
No it was recorded in the US. The guy introducing the band at the beginning was either a rodie or a guitar tech at the time. He was from England IIRC.
Is this the blues guitarist Gary Clark?
@@todmarks175 no but i wish i could play like him.
@@garyclark9185 Tried to give you some props!😁 And he is a guitarist worth listening too.
React to Code Orange - Forever
