Bicentennial summer of 1976...11 yrs old remember hearing this on the radio nonstop...so many memories thank God I grew up in the BEST decade for music.
Great memories of my childhood in the 70s are associated with this song when it was new on the radio, summer vacation,Saturday morning cartoons,then move on to American Bandstand, go outside grab my Brady Bunch cherry red bike strap my black and chrome RCA hand held radio with the five foot long chrome antenna on the handlebars of my bike and listen to songs on the radio when music like this was new . DJ thanks for refreshing my memories and beautiful joy to the world again with music 😎😎😎👍🏼👍🏼
You sound like me!!! I love this song❤ always have always will! Brings SOOOOOO many wonderful memories of the 1970s. I still turn up this song LOUD GETS ME IN THE MOOD TO PARTY, I FEEL YOUNG AGAIN ✌😎
@@trudybennett5345 I love your words,this song brings me joy ,peace and youthfulness in my mind ,I can almost feel the wind on my face when I ride my bike and reminisce about my own “wonder years “ experience .Enjoy life and be safe 😎👍🏼👍🏼.
65 years old and believe me, THIS... sounds as good as it did 50 odd years ago. One of the BEST synthesized Funk Rock compositions ever. Whew... my god My God MY GOD THIS REMIX!!! Somebody call this old man an ambulance... 😆...'cause something this sweet and funky must come with risks. WOOHOOOOOO.....
"that is a really nice/respectful way of making a comment" .... sometimes we need to hear something from someone else that helps us to realize or understand something maybe in a better way .... "AND THAT IS PROVIDED THAT YOU ARE LISTENING TO OTHER'S" .... "AND NOT JUST YOURSELF" ..... "thank you" ....
I remember sitting in my best friend's house when, I first heard this song! Summer of 75! Unfortunately, my best friend has passed away. The memories of that great summer will live in my heart and mind forever! I will never forget this song!
This was s hit on the radio when I was 15, I'm a hard rock fan but there were so many great songs like this one that are lost to time. Thanks for memory.
I'm 64 one of my favorite songs seen him at RICWOOD field in Birmingham Alabama in the seventies he opened with this song sounded just like the 8 track tape remember those glad I found this AWESOME 👌VERSION
Dear DJDiscoCat, I am just typical Asian guys in mid 30 from South Korea. I started to listen to black music around 14 years old and ever since I never stopped listening these from different era. My love for black music led to discover your channel a few years back and it is now my go-to channel whenever I want to listen to music. I just want to thank you to put old-school rock & black music from different eras along with detailed explanation on the artist! If you have pod-cast or radio-channel I would listen to it all day!

My first year out of high school when this came out. "Dream Weaver" captured the imagination of everyone but I rank "Love Is Alive" above it, my favourite Gary Wright song by far. Rich, lush production, layers of keyboards, fabulous lyrics: "I have lived only half of what I am / It's all clear to me now..." You've given this classic the Midas touch that you have with everything you mix. Thanks for giving the song new, exciting life.
DJ Disco Cat!!! DEEPEST LOVE !!! Thank you for your work for keeping this music alive that CHANGED music FOREVER!!! Even in the Millenium, This music reigns SUPREME!!!! Even new generations are learning about this music and LOVING IT!!!! Again!!!! DEEPEST LOVE and THANK YOU so much!!!!😍
Fantastic bass sound here, song takes us ‘somewhere else’ I love it & Gary’s singing voice is so sexy ~ clear & masculine, whew!! pic @ 2:57 is so cool his ‘flying’ outfit. Neat vinyl label w/palm trees. R.I.P. Gary⭐️⭐️⭐️
I'm a 61 year old transgender woman and this song takes me Back to the Summer of '76 when I was on swim team and I used to see girls roller skating and listening to this song on their boomboxes. Now All these years later I'm inspired to learn how to roller skate all over again just so I can feel the ground roll away under my wheels as I move and glide to this groove still as cool as it ever was. Thanks Meow Mix for this extended version, it's purrrfect! 😻
My work calls can wait, music therapy is much more important! A lot of the songs you've extended are in my walking Playlist. I have to be careful though, some of them have me dancing down the trails of the park! 🤣❤😻
I really love Gray Wright and was about twelve years old back than really good times growing up in Shreveport Louisiana bcuz moved from San Diego CA in 77
I'm in a band..heavy metal!! But we do th I s song for the encore..jazzed up..pretty fukkn killer!! Gary's voice will be forever remembered by this song an dream weaver❤RIP🇺🇲🇬🇧🇩🇪😎💪
I have been waiting for this one a long time. DJDiscoCat, you never cease to Amaze me with your Remix Skill Set. I am totally Blown away with just how Great you have made this sound! WOW!!!!
My wild child days.done every thing that had to do with boys and music. I am 58 years old now and only listen to my hot kidrock and he is my Bobby shazam. But like to reminisce sometimes.
Great story I never knew this much about this artist people go through so much in life trying to reach the dreams of becoming top notch musician. my hat's off to anyone who'd give it a try it's not easy out there but at least you can say you tried some make it some remain in obscurity I should know LOL
I was only 7 years old when this was released. I grew up with my parents tastes in music. This takes me back to my hometown’s first FM station and listening to hear this song and other magical songs from the 70s. I consider myself and my generation lucky. We grew up with the great, already made music from the 1950s & 1960s. We then had the 1970s & 1980s (now classic) music for us to hear when it was new. Thanks DJ for another awesome remix that does the classic song justice. You’re the best on UA-cam at extension remixes. I sincerely believe that the 1980s was the last decade for good music. That is unless you include music released as Country/Rock or Country since the 1990s. RapCrap’s popularity killed Rock’s with teens I think. Keep up the great work DJ!
This is a prime example of why I subscribed to this channel a few years ago... & why I'll never unsubscribe. Thanks for the *-cat food-* Meow Mix!
Same
Saturday morning cartoons, American Bandstand then cap it off it with Soooul Train!!!#Klassik
Im 58 now but remember my babysitters listening to this song ... I still listen to it even today. Love the remix ❤❤❤❤
I'm 54 and remember it (and "Dream Weaver") being played a lot on the radio when I was a kid.
I loved this . Reminded me of being 18 and fell in love with a gorgeous 16 y.o. and she loves me . Been here for decades
Bicentennial summer of 1976...11 yrs old remember hearing this on the radio nonstop...so many memories thank God I grew up in the BEST decade for music.
