BROTHERSFOURVEVO - The Brothers Four - Four Strong Winds (Live)
Audience paying attention and not talking and looking at their phones. I miss those good ole days. Thanks for sharing this clip.
So sad to watch this video and see the innocence of the pre-Vietnam war, pre Kennedy assassination, young people. A lot of beauty and idealism. Made me cry.
😢❤
best version of this song !!! I get goosebumps by watching and hearing this. Especially when the young audience are joining them singing and watching all young people. and in addition the lyrics having in mind „our good times are all gone…“ that most of them are about 80 years or already gone to heaven. bringing tears to me….
that's also is life
Truly a time tunnel piece, instant transport to my youth, age of innocence, naivety, ignorance, insecurity, simple happiness, hope and dream.
A wonderful version of Ian Tyson's first song. Of course, no song hurts for Dick's beautiful voice and the harmonies of the B4. RIP Ian.
For sure!
Pure beauty, emotions and love. Where all those good times have gone😢
At this time of the screen, America was not like now. We could feel nostalgic. But, those days are gone forever. Well, there’s always today and tomorrow.
Surely this vision is more than 40 years old, judging by the fresh young faces in the audience. Thanks for finding this video.
Wonderful performance of a classic song. Dick Foley had a flawless voice and knocks it out of the park singing the lead.
Absolutely beautiful harmonies
Thank you for uploading a precious and rare video.
I heard this song was about the lonliness of seasonal workers in the rural area in the US,
but it meant much more than me. It was a song of good-old-day America with full of hopes and dreams,
and I used to love and admire such a wonderful country !
Stupid Yankee! Since when is Alberta in the USA?
Good comment, but it is actually about Canada.
A Canadian, Ian Tyson wrote it about a breakup and leaving to go to Alberta Canada. Others have admired this song and covered it including Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and John Denver to name a few. Btw the writer was friends with Bob Dylon who had just written Blowing in the wind.
While I'm listening to Dick Foley and this wonderful rendition, I look at the students in the audience and wonder what happened to them? They are just a couple of years older than I. How many boys ended up in Viet Nam and how many didn't make it home? How many were taken by drugs? How did the women with their degrees fare? How many are still with us (they are all in their mid to late 70s now). How did their lives pan out - as they dreamed or better or worse?
I was wondering the same thing. I could have been in that audience
The answer is blowing in the wind.
These guys had to have the best version there was of this song.
i've heard over a dozen covers of this song, but i keep going back to brothers four.
So, what is better
ただ一言。いいなあ。
Just a one word. Wonderful!
Pure talent, and we can see the audience is mesmerised, love it.
Ian Tyson could not only write them, but sang them oh so well.
RIP composer Ian Tyson - 12/29/22. A sign of a great song is many, many cover versions. Ian & Sylvia are the original.
That's great to hear the audience sing it
You must have two microphones for stereo, they do not need anymore. Folk music at it's best.
Love the Brothers Four.. always have
Such a great song and beautifully sung. This is definitely the best version of this beautiful song. The harmonies are great and the lead singer has such a beautiful voice.
These guys always deliver with top-notch harmony.
Oh no....Neil's version brings it to the next level !
@@willemvanfrankenhuysen4281 Different time, different place.
Nobody’s version is better than Bobby Bare’s. He is the standard others are judged by. Imho
There are a lot of great versions of this song, but I’d have to say that my favorite is Ian and Sylvia’s. Nobody quite sings this one like the guy who wrote it.
Why is it 2021 and I’m obsessed with the brothers four?!
Same here. Been scouring youtube lately looking for these gems.
Oct 2022, we’re searching……🧐🙏🏻
Because all of your favorite songs came from them.
It’s like a warm, down-comforter in a cold February. Necessary.
age
Last 3 yrs, they were in Thailand .I was there , but not this song ; I heard. Pls sing this song again ,in my country.
Look at the collegiate audience at UCLA - 1963. They may as well be from a distant planet. What a decline...it takes one's breath away.
you are full of shit...times change..a few years after this, those same kids were leading the anti war protest..having love ins , getting high, growing their hair long ..and dying in Vietnam ..one generation is not better or worse than another....just different..
Very sad today.
Yes, it's the way an audience could sit still like that, huddled together in silent appreciation of every delicate nuance of the music, & sing along peacefully like a choir which is a microcosm of all mankind.
And I can still clearly recall sitting around the campfire at summer camp in the later '60's, singing along together as our counselors strummed "Four Strong Winds", "Dona Dona", "Leaving On A Jet Plane", & other timeless folk songs of a caliber that no longer exists.
I can also recall seeing/hearing the Grateful Dead in concert in 1973, with a roomful of 7,000 happy hippies celebrating the music together in such a peaceful, settled, harmonious way that just doesn't happen now.
Somewhere around the inception of MTV was the time when audiences began to lose their concentration & respect for music.
I attended UCLA 1968-1978. The Vietnam war draft changed a lot of things.
There are audiences of various age groups who do sit and listen and pay attention. There are disruptive audience members of various ages who provide their own soundtrack.
@@anjetgrinding Flying off the handle much, dude? Anti-social nut case.
Reminds me of my time at college (1964-1968). I did find out that the couple at 2:37 eventually married, according to their daughter.
I love this song, that was a beautiful rendition
I like Bobby Bare's version too, brings back so many memories.
@@user-bf1tr6gk3p Yes, me too
This is definetly the best version,i I play it all the time.
Wow!!! Simply Great.
Great stuff.
just wonderful!
IMHO, you are truly a great talent when your audience softly shines with you as seen here. It also was a time of meaningful music. We related to this ex songs from our own life experiences.
Thank you for sharing your telants and inspiration.
Все бы их старые записи увидеть в хорошем качестве. Красота голосов неимоверная.❤
I sooo miss those days...😔
They have so uniqueness n melody in their songs... M a big fan brother four
An absolute beauty. Thanks for sharing.
All time great song.
California back when it was half way sane.
So beautifully sung❤
Those were the days my friends.
Those days existed.
Oh , sometimes songs are echous in our head.
Era yo un niño cuando cantaban, pero su música la tengo grabada en mi cerebro, que buenos son!!! maníficos!!!
Incredible.
Beautiful, thank you for uploading
I did this for a talent show in junior high school...
I miss it so much that I cry.
懐かしい。
Beautiful voices - is that a thing of the past?
bro i live in alberta
It also sounds pretty good at 1.25 speed.
Good tip. Sounds better a bit faster.
Bravo
A great Canadian song by a great Canadian duo. The original Ian and Sylvia version is best but they do a great cover of it.
👍👍
Something I forgot to add, is that a double base? I thought only Athol Guy of The Seekers fame played one of those in popular music.
February 2023 ❤️👍🇨🇦
Look at those girls!!! Are this kind of girls extinct now?
I think the girl at 2:21 is very pretty.
No they are not, I married her and we have four childern.
I also got married those girl who seemed exinct girl 3 decades ago
Yes they are.
No, but they look modern now.
Brutal
I am Mary Jane!!!!!!!
Which one
much better at 1.5 speed
who was the original version ??
neli young
or
four brothers ???
Ian Tyson wrote the song.
Ian and Sylvia
Not in the Hall???? But Biggie is???? Joke
OMG-- Just look at the audience's reaction/participation; music is to be taken seriously because it provokes thought. Aesthetic death canme soon enuf, however, for the amerikunz with the advent of the Beatles and rock.. hen a slow descent into the juvenile eros of today. Delenda est.
Don’t like Rose.
