Albert is performing this at 74 years of age and kicking ass doing it . I'm 67 years of age and I thank you Albert for such a great song in my hey days the 1970's was a great decade of music .
I don't have many Heros, though Albert Hammond is definitely one of them. DOWN BY THE RIVER was the first single I bought - December 1972, when I was 11 yrs old. Save the environment, save the Planet.
This is such a beautiful song written by someone who lived through hardship, In his early years Albert was begging outside a train station and was spotted by his cousin, this where the lyrics don’t tell my folks back home, I think he’s been respectful shaking the drivers hand ,rest in peace Albert.
Could not find this gem and legend in the archive 😊 finally here it is, time to sit back and relax away from stress. Thanks UA-cam for this awesome lyric video💗. Never tired of hearing and singing this again and again💗. The 1970's certainly was a great decade of music. I am humbled and honored it is the year I was born. Thank God for giving us Albert Hammond. How about coming here in the Philippines? Many thanks💗 Live and let live, GBUM🙏💗🙏
Albert Hammond is legendary! Such a humble man with a genuine smile! I remember in one interview, he says: "People in small towns can't go to see me, I go to see them!" "The beauty of life is that until you leave this world, you are here to better yourself as a human being!" Love you Albert! ❤
This is a gem of a song. I remember listening to this when it was first released in 1972, I was 33 at the time and, for me personally, it hasn't lost any of its appeal with the passage of time.
Me siento agradecido con Dios por haber vivido mi juventud con estas inigualables canciones. Me acuerdo cuando vino a Costa Rica para una navidad en los 70s.
Alberto, this song gave me a great connection to a place that was roughly 3 month's it helped me find my RUBY TUESDAY, THAT I GAVE UP IN '81 . LIVED IN WEED,CA. IN '86 AND SHOULD HAVE STAYED BUT TOOK THE STUPID WAY OUT AND IT COST ME IN THE LONG RUN. YOU WERE A BIG INFLUENCE IN MY MUSIC LISTENING. LOVE AND PEACE S.K.
I heard this song for the first time in 1974 while attending school in Switzerland. I was planning to move to Southern California that following summer and was wondering if it was true.
WELL DONE !!!!! So often when an artist does a many years later symphonic redo it pales in comparison to the original. You have all done a wonderful job.
No me canso de ver este video. Excelente versión de la original. Me conmueve la sencillez de este gran artista. Siempre se mostró así con mucha humildad en sus presentaciones a pesar de su enorme talento y grandes exitos tanto en inglés como en español.
Albert,que enorme artista eras.Tu y tu inmenso talento te hicieron inmortal y "weon" tu eres de esos que no envejecen,solo te vuelves un poco menos joven,te admiro muchísimo big master...
The original with Hal Blaine on the kit! I was 11 and learning. Little did I know the songs that impressed me the most for their drumming were Hal Blaine until more than a decade later.
Heard of this song when I was a teen in the Philippines, thought it was beautiful, love it then, love it still! Finally got its meaning, (30+years SoCalifornian now), so true! It's never, but hardly 🌧️🌧️🌧️ in SoCal.
tan humilde mi viejo como le da la mano a su chófer eso hace a los actores de antes mejores que los de ahora wow amo a esta viejo me recuerda a mi papa
His voice is as strong in this video as his very first public performance. Well done!
always like this catchy tune. it just makes me think of all those who never quite achieved the American dream.
I’m a 68 year old and these songs bring back so many pleasant memories. It’s like entering a time machine.
This is the only reason I have a computer phone.
*such a great version of this song.*
What a humble and friendly man ! Real class !
The melody is so cheerful but the lyrics so sad..

Such a classic thank you Albert 🇬🇧
I watch and listen to him doing this song all the time. But this is the first I seen of this one. What a fresh breath of oxygen. Texas
What a pleasant gentleman. 👍💖🙏
So looking forward to visiting San Francisco soon🏴🇺🇸
One of my favorite songs of all time. Really brings back fond memories. 😂❤
I don't have many Heros, though Albert Hammond is definitely one of them.

Save the environment, save the Planet.
Albert Hammond A very big one in the history of music!
It Never Rains in Southern California one of the most beautiful and best songs ever!
This song remins me the happiest time of my life..Im 63 now
Speaks to my soul. I cry listening to it. Beautiful orchestration
Me lleno de alegría con su música majestuosa, felicitaciones hermoso lo q an hecho, juventud añorada vuelvo a soñar recordando está música del ayer
what a classic pop song in 1970s that is ageless, never tired of hearing it again and again
Bless Albert Hammond
This song brings back lots of memories... Very very well done in good taste! Ahhh... how we cherish the yesteryears... Bravo!
I love the way he shakes the limo driver hand and thanks him real class guy Albert Hammond
That was before COVID.
@@TheYayabrian HAHAHAHAHA
The driver had on gloves. But not 6 ft. F'n Socialicst.

I have yet to see a celebrity who has the grace to shake hand with a limo driver!
Good to see Albert still belting out this great song. The 70s memories are flooding back.
