Lmao.. I was grip on this show, it took Mike a fkn week to recover . Housewives everywhere needed extra pills. I think the guy that booked her got fired.. Oh the days when musicians actually made statements
I saw her at CBGB New Year's Eve in 1977 where she did Because the Night for the first time and Springsteen did a surprise walk on and joined her. Also saw her in 1975 or 76 at The Cellar Door in DC- front row seats. Have since seen her 3 or 4 times in NYC. Most amazing was July 2001 Lincoln Center, where she did a 20 minute elegy to Vietnam, and in 2003 at Battery Park City, where she performed "1959". In 2005, she did "Gloria" in Central Park, in her 60s, and she was hotter than most singers in their 30s!
I saw her twice, she was about 68-69 years old. First time was in an outdoor concert, 6 months later I saw her in a medium size theatre, completely full and sure was one of the concerts of my life. Some sort of a religious celebration of rock&roll and freedom! God bless her!
I saw the PSG at the Golden Bear (Huntington Beach, Cal.) sometime in '76 and on that tour she had fans following her for every show on that tour! That's not bad for Californians at that time. She was the very essence of punk rock long before any band got awarded with that title. Yeah, lots of spitting from the audience and her too, and was very loud. Just good garage rock.
@@Pimp-Master I have Loved PSG from the start. Growing up in the midwest area I never got to see them, and I worked for a concert promoting company in Evansville , In. So sad ,,, out of the thousands of concerts I have been to I never got to see her/them,,,, Years later and I still Love her wacked out music.
I saw for the first time last night in Bath, and part of me was expecting a slight disappointment compared to the energy on her records from younger years - I couldn't have been more wrong . She really has still got that punk rock energy at 74, and knows how to connect with her crowd - thank you to whoever gave you to world, you are inspirational!
@@revwahfair Uh, they DID? Fred DIED very young, so if you consider that to be walking away, so be it. As for Patti, she never walked away from anything. She is a multi-talented artist, singer, poet, author, photographer, producer, performer, and probably more talents that a neglected to mention here. Walked away? This lady is SO successful, busy and still in demand, I don't even know when she has time to sleep!
Gotta hand it to Mike Douglas...he wasn't afraid to put diverse rock acts on his show and mix it up with stiff old Hollywood types. Patti Smith legendary progressive pop rocker, here baring her soul like every performance she's done for the past 45 years.
it be my wet dream to perform this song with her stage presence at karaoke one night, and sing out that song in all it's glory. Patti will remain one of my favorites till i grow old and shrivel.
exquisite. Saw her once in concert, 1978, just as a roommate's "Horses" was dislodging me from ubiquitous prog-rock dirges. (Mothers Day, 1978, Tower Theater - Patti's mom seated right across the aisle!!))
The spirit of this music is the epitome of what great rock and roll is. Powerful. Raw. Sexy. Happy and angry at the same time. PSG doesn't get enough credit. Just fantastic.
when she was singing this i was in grade 8 going thru the worst hell of my life being bullied mercilessly all year by a couple thugs in my class.what doesnt kill you makes you stronger i guess,thats what they say right?it made me stronger somehow,im 56 and im determined to find out how it improved me lol.i know i'll figure it out.
I have seen Patti two times this year, performing Horses Live during the Horses 40th Year Tour... I love her as she is today, and I'm sad for what I lost when she was young
Every time I watch this it gets better and better. It's probably my favourite PSG song. I've been into them since they came out in 1974 and they still sound original and great.
People would assume that a guy like Mike Douglas might be square, but he was a musician and so by definition is hip to the cause. This song gives me shivers and tears. Thanks for your post, REALLY Finest Kind
He had such a great show. Mike always had a diverse panel of guests For all we know the rest of the guest panel here could have been Robert Goulet and Henny Youngman
You could depend on Mike Douglas Show to feature rock acts experiencing their first glimpses of chart success, appearing at the nearby iconic Tower Theater.
Douglas had John and Yoko on for a week right when they were controversial and getting in real government trouble. Some would say DOuglas was brave. I say, Bravo.
I was a grip on this show, Mike gave the musical guest booker lots of latitude but it took Mike 2 good weeks to get over Patti, we had Lou on once or tried to but he was to smacked back and kept spitting all over the set.. my 2 favorite guests on mid day talk show.. the switch board almost blew up after patti with irate pill swilling housewives complaining. That studio was not as large as it appeared, musician green room was 10 feet stage left of the shot, you could hear patti Howling and laughing , she was and still is one of America's oh fuck that the world's great poets
I love Patti. I never saw her live. I hope to one day. I would trade most of the concerts I've seen just to see Patti once. I wish DVDs existed of her shows.
Brilliant! Sheer passion and attitude, there is no one as good as Smith! More artists now should take a look back and find influence from such punk-inspired musicians.
I Never called Patti 'Punk" , I thought they were Heavy Drug Rock,,,, Loved them since the start. I have all the early albums and now I watch them on you tube everyday. Still Fantastic !!!
The funny thing is how everyone commented on how "fresh" this performance (and Patti) was, when in fact it dates from April 1977, more than a year after "Horses" was released (and six months after "Radio Ethiopia"). No one seemed to realize (or care?) that she'd been actively involved in music (not to mention poetry, art, etc.) since at least 1974.
I believe Patti was wearing boots given to her by Muhammad Ali. Fortunate to see her do 40th anniversary of Horses in Cleveland, saw her in 2000, waited 24 years due to missing a '76 show at the Cleveland agora that was sold out. She has to be the most well read singer of her generation, a true force of nature. PSG!!!
Awesome! I just wish they would have booked Television on the Douglas show as well. I bet a lot of viewers freaked the afternoon this aired. Thanks for posting.
Gotta love the audience response, much more enthusiastic that I would have thought a Mike Douglas Show crowd would provide. (Needless to say, Television would have been rather, shall we say, less animated than Patti!)
Free Money is the best track off the first album but although probably in a minority here, overall I prefer Radio Ethiopia as her best and most original album.
I probably should've liked the songs that Rolling Stone thought were cool, (Gloria), but I would play Free Money and Redondo Beach all the time, the uncool songs, I suppose.

KatMPhotography How is that a comparison? Completely different artists, music, and purposes. I love Patti as an artist. I respect Beyonce as an artist. And for the record, Beyonce does perform/sing live. Her voice is powerful. Such a weird and unrelated comparison...
Paul Perkins lol yeahhh… that first Am @:46 is rough but I feel like once they start going it’s less noticeable, or perhaps I care less by then since it’s seemingly a vibe for this one. I know this is 5 years later but I’m glad I’m not the only who noticed the out of tune guitars. Hope you’re well!
the mike douglas show ... was wierd.the straightest most middleclass old school variety personality, But i remember he had Sly Stone on as co-host for a whole week around '74... I wish i remebered more of it- i was 15 and kept changing channels b+f to miss the crap parts- i do rember Sly wore that black leathe fringy jumpsuit from the cover of "Fresh'
She still has this beautiful energy. Even now, when she's 69. Unusual woman. She inspires me every day.
heheh, 69
Wish all the woman were like you. I'm so delighted to know about Your existence..
cos' when yur 69 energy usually goes away....right??

What most people fail to realize, she was married to Fred "Sonic" Smith from the MC5. They both walked away from successful careers.

Smith decided to completely focus on being a mother
Any similar stuff that wasn’t as popular anyone knows of?

Yeah, Mike Douglas had some great acts. Saw DEVO in his show.4
So she’s about 29 at this performance
Thirty seven years later and the energy is still all there!
Make that 44
it be my wet dream to perform this song with her stage presence at karaoke one night, and sing out that song in all it's glory. Patti will remain one of my favorites till i grow old and shrivel.
Love the intensity as only she can deliver
I actually have goosebumps...
She saved my life
才能豊かな歌手でいつも聞き惚れています。プリンスのwhen doves cry とか似たような面があるような気がします。ずっと応援します。
She's fantastic in every single detail
exquisite. Saw her once in concert, 1978, just as a roommate's "Horses" was dislodging me from ubiquitous prog-rock dirges. (Mothers Day, 1978, Tower Theater - Patti's mom seated right across the aisle!!))
I was at that show with Patti's mom.

I HAVE LOVED PSG SINCE 1975,,
AND I AM STILL LISTENING !!!!

This is very special. She's just incredible and it's a totally amazing song.
It doesn't get too much better than this! Love you Patti!

Poet, Musician, Singer/Songwriter, Author. Slim & Sexy - definitely one of the coolest chicks on the planet ❤️
Je t'aime patti 🇫🇷❤️horses....classique,uppercut !!! 👊🏼
I have seen Patti two times this year, performing Horses Live during the Horses 40th Year Tour... I love her as she is today, and I'm sad for what I lost when she was young
Me too, though I did see her my first week here in NYC in 79, at an unannounced show at Club 57 on Saint Marks! :O WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Patti in this performance had more energy than a thunderbolt. Amazing song. So close to my heart.
Every time I watch this it gets better and better. It's probably my favourite PSG song. I've been into them since they came out in 1974 and they still sound original and great.
WOW!!! ❤❤❤
Incredible!!!!
How could you not love her???
One of the best kept secrets of the 70’s. Haaa I bet this Talk Show host didn’t know what to think! Lol

Man,, I Love This!!! 😎 Bob
Wow! Patti Smith on the Mike Douglas Show. Who would of thought?
I bought the LP early 1976 and must have played the shit out of it staying up all night painting dozens of nights
No one is better than Patti!
God bless Mike Douglas
This is better than the album version. Fantastic
I love Patti. I never saw her live. I hope to one day. I would trade most of the concerts I've seen just to see Patti once. I wish DVDs existed of her shows.
Definitely check her out live . She gives a 100%

One of my favorites
Magnifique magnifique ❤❤❤
Patti is the coolest lady
La plus grande poétesse de tous les temps, jamais inégalé depuis 1977 !
More talent than the law allows. And she's still got it -- ALL of it. An amazing artist.
カッコいい〜😆
An icon.
QUEEN
Trop beau souvenir
Watching this takes my breathe away... the Queen!
Iconic performance.
Frickin Love Her/Them,,,PSG !!!!

Mike Douglas had the best bookers!!! Kiss and many other key acts.
Kiss? Are u fricking kidding? Kiss SUCKS cock. Don't dump a turd here, this is good music, not kiss
Absolute rockstar
One of the greatest American artists of all time.
I am delifhted because this video was filmed the year I was born. ♥️
A goddess blossoming into a Goddess. Good lord that woman is powerful.
MD does it again! Rampant counter culture at 4pm mom! Smith at her rise ...
How's about Mike Douglas!? I'd forgotten what he had the nerve to put on in the middle of the afternoon
the bullet in my heart. Love you Patti

Yes, we did!

Mike Douglas had a pretty open mind when it came to his musical guests
я люблю тебя всем сердцем патти
One of the most beautiful rock songs ever written. Patty was a rebel that still had deep respect for her roots and family.
Just another reason to thank Mike Douglas for letting bands do what they do best. This is pure NY punk.
Do I ever love this woman. Simple.
I haven't seen this since it was broadcast. Happy Birthday Patti Smith!
She’s my favorite punk! I love her guts,
a lot of the songs on her first album remind me of Television..... Marque moon..... similar sound... love them both
Television was an underrated band... too complex for the times.
I saw her 100 times on The Mike Douglas Show !!!!
😀😁😂😂😎 Bobby D.
Such great energy... If only they had digital guitar tuners back then.... ;-)

Every night before I go to sleep

Scoop the pearls up from the sea
Cash them in and buy you
All the things you need
Every night before I rest my head
See those dollar bills
go swirling 'round my bed
I know they're stolen
but I don't feel bad
I take that money
Buy you things you never had
Oh baby
it would mean so much to me
Oh baby
to buy you all the things you need

Buy you a jet plane baby
Get you on a higher plane
to a jet stream
And take you thru the stratosphere
Check out the planets there
Take you down deep deep deep

Would have been nice if the guitars were in tune though. I love the energy of this, but it really sounds pretty bad.
Old music = good, new music = bad!? Wow what a novel and insightful comment.

The Mike Douglas Show was pretty conservative. I'm surprised he booked them. (Then again, KISS appeared three years earlier...)
