Hamish Stuart had one of the most soulful voices!
Even today, AWB is unmatched in their accomplishment.
Just saw them for the first time a few years ago. Even without the original lead singer,they still got it going on. They were on the same show with War. It was great!
This is when music was music . Today's music/artist can't touch them. Real singing and playing of instruments.
@@debracarr1137…. playing and singing this well at the time - imagine that!
I love AWB but unmatched? There is Earth Wind and Fire, Tower of Power for fifty plus years...???
That’s funk beyond the call of duty right there!
I grew up on these guys! Truly missed music for us who are from I guess what they call, old school! Who else feel the same way? Thankful for UA-cam!
If you are not nodding your head or feet whilst listening to this, you must be dead
I feel so privileged to have personally experienced the music of the 60’s, 70’s, and the 80’s.
What an amazing ride!!
Totally!
Absolutely wonderful!
I loved this Band the moment I heard them . The 70's was great . A young Teen with rhythm !
This band was awesome right out of the box. Exquisitely funky...
Doesn't get much better than this!
You are right!
Hamish knocking it out of the park with the vocals!
Highly underrated band. Work, work.................
AWB..one of the BEST live bands in the business!
Junior in high school 1975, someone played the Cut the Cake album over the PA in gym class. I was forever hooked on AWB. 48 years later, I still listen all the time. I ❤ AWB.
They did an awesome cover of The Isley Brothers'
classic Got Work To Do.
Person to Person was easy for me to sing in my early 20's plus I sung it in a higher pitch and I'm a baritone/tenor well was lol
Fantastic job
They made it better than the original work to do. This makes me think about 1976 when was 17 going to my first real concert at the Louisville gardens AWB Soul searching tour, Sold out a week before the tour, they could have played Freedom hall, what a show. George Benson was 2nd billing meaning he was the first performance, he played the breezing album entirely then AWB came and put on hell of a show.
Steve Ferrone is chopping it up!!
💫✨ 👊🤣 You said it while I was tryna get it out my brain 🧠 and in the comments! 👊🤣 💫✨
Ollie McEntire is the most underrated rhythm guitar player I no
and with Steve Ferrone on drums along with the rest of the band,
how can u lose?
The OG "Classic" version of AWB!!!
The original members
@@debracarr1137Steve Ferrone isn’t original but he’s classic for sure
AWB in their prime 😊
Most definitely. I would rush home from work to see them on Friday and Saturday nights.
That drive that Allen Gorrie did on , "If I ever lose this Heaven" was fantastic.
That Person to Person worldwide tour was off the Chain 1976-77 ,I saw them twice atlanta civic center!!!!
A.W.B live 77 was a monster, them boys was bad.
Saw AWB in 1977 (Norfolk Scope). Wild Cherry opened. Good sound, good show.
Scotland's utterly brilliant soul sound geniuses....Used to watch Hamish in the Dream Police, in the Electric Gardens in Glasgow..... he just had what it took......
Blue eyed soul my ass PURE R&B SOUL 😎
Back in the day when this music was first released, my friends and I loved it from the start. We didn't know that it was not black guys producing it. It didn't matter. It was some funky music and we were onboard. We all wanted to sing that falsetto. But who could? Maybe in the shower. It was fun trying.
I loved them in high school 49 years ago. Still do!
Love this. I grew up with the Don Kirshner show always on when I was very little. My family would have the telly on watching all the live performances on there. AWB is just awesome.
Very cool!
The badass wa
The badas white group ever
On the East Coast (I assume)...IN CONCERT, MIDNIGHT SPECIAL, & DON KIRSHNER'S ROCK CONCERT were all Friday night 11:30pm.
Friday Nights were, THE BEST! I was the only one up, watching ALL the live shows! Guess that's why, out of 6, I'm the ONLY Musician in the Family!
Definitive Blue-Eyed Soul💙💜❤👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
More than blue eyed soul
LOVE AWB! GREAT MUSICIANS AND ALAN AND HAMISH VOICES SO GOOD TOGETHER WHEN THEY FIRST STARTED IT WAS HARD TO TELL WHICH WAS WHICH.
Darn shame we don’t have live music on tv anymore
AWB, perfect blend of soul and funk....love the 70s sound.
It all takes me home,such a smooth groove ! nuthin' betta'!
AWB was an L.A. staple! You could see them all the time! Great band!
I'm the one, hip hop before hip hop music was even recognized.
Steve Ferrone rock steady on those drums.
OMG. I did not know Dwight Schrute played bass for AWB!
Seriously, I was a live sound engineer in the early 1990's and these guys came through on tour. They absolutely killed it. GREAT BAND. Nice bunch too, no out of control egos, no fussing about - real pros and true gents.
Damn, I miss real music. These cats were on one back in the day.
Baaaad Band! Gettin' in! Go AWB!
Hamish Stuart kills me. Such a brilliant singer.
unfortunately he can't sing anymore. He's hard to listen to now
Introducing in the Rock concert corner a band of heavyweights in the funk and smooth R&B category AWB
One of my all time favorite groups. Westside of Chicago, 1977. The AWB live, person to person. 10 years old. What memories. Lol.
These boyz are absolutely great!
They were really Funky, loved them as a teen
One of my favorite bands all players and Steve ferr smooth one ,Allan and Hamish

Me and my wife loved this all the way back in the 70s. Still listen to it on cds. Awesome band and great music.

Nothing average about these guys. Saw them twice in Honolulu. Late 70’s early 80’s

Purchase every AWB album, My favorite band growing up.
This should be getting more views than it's getting.
True that .
Simple funky bass lines
loved to have been there xx AWB xx
AWB was one bad unit. Loved their music 🎶.
Awesome !
Ripping the stage up, bass player is bringing the heat. 🔥❤🔥🔥🔥
💫✨ What’s cool was that H. Stuart & A. Gorrie (sp?) switched off playing the bass 🎸 depending on the song . . . Can’t leave O. McIntyre out of mention ; he played a mean lead guitar! The entire ensemble was great. 💫✨
thank you thank you thank you for posting this!
Very nice background sax sound, to go along with the word, "I'm, at 9:09, and, 9:14.
I have heard a lot of cover groups doing music of that era and it always brings a smile to my face when they do music by AWB. Thanks for posting this
Same here!
Alan Gorrie is an awesome bassist.
Scottish lads bringin the funk goodness me
I saw them on tour in Tucson AZ on Oct 27th 1977 , and it was a barn burner ...not one person was sitting down...Queen of my soul was unreal ....Hamish stole the show...
Now I know where Vanessa Williams got this from.
Isley Bros original. But AWB has played since the beginning.
Big Sam Clayton of Little Feat on congas... AWB, one of the great all time bands!
Groovy white dudes ever
Hamish Stuart🔥👍💪
Love it!
In the Top 10 in my Life
awb funk love it xx
I saw them at the Marquee on the first night of their Sunday residency… about fifty or so people in the audience but after the word got out the following Sunday was packed solid:) Good times:)
Sam Clayton from Little Feat sitting in on congas. Sweet addition!
"I'm the one " was said very nicely, at, 10:31, by the guy in the orangish top.
what a heaven****
I will be seeing them and WAr in New Jersey at the Salem County Fairgrounds on Saturday, August 19, 2023.
💫✨ What a treat! Gotta let us know how it ripped, Man. They’re masters of syncopation - - Safety 1st & Enjoy! 💫✨
I can roll wit' these fellas
That was phenomenal....
love, love, love AWB
Extremely tight!

Steve Ferrone cutting loose w these guys, then reining it in w Tom Petty. Respect!
Thanks great times
Steve Ferrone - funky as fk... RIP Robbie McIntosh
From Scotland, I believe.
Blue eyed soul at its very best. Top of the heap baby!
More than blue eyed soul. These guys are black men in white skin.
Put AWB in the Soul Music HOF .
Hamish Stuart might be the baddest white dude on earth period!!! Forget music lol
see them next week Tyne theatre Newcastle xxx 8 weeks a long time to be without your sugar xxxxx
The same Don Kirshner
who started a record label.
COOL BAND !
At least this is a actual live performance and not a studio track mime like most of these "live" performances are
Steve farrone poping those drums
And don't forget Sam Figueroa on congas.
Sam Clayton
ferrone was no joke on those drums
One of the most soulful talented bands of the 70s hands down !! Our crew was shocked when we discovered they're racial makeup !!
Alan Gorrie had such a soulful voice, On par with Michael Mcdonald.
