    This song is a masterclass in every cool sound a Hammond organ can make in the hands of somebody who knows what he's doing with one. And Jerry Corbetta of Sugarloaf damn sure knew what to do with one, man.

      Reminds me of a joke Paul Shaffer made on the original Late Night with David Letterman in the 80's. Paul Shaffer famously used a Hammond B3 to get that classic sound.
      Letterman, in his musical ignorance, asked Shaffer, "Paul, what kind of organ is that you play to give you that distinct classic sound?"
      Paul (as I recall) said, "Oh...it's the Hammond Cheesemaster 3000, David."

      You mentioned my favorite tune by them. They do a shout out to the Beatles in "Don't call Us, We'll Call You" with the line "It sound like John, Paul, and George" followed by the guitar rift from the Beatles tune "I feel fine". And it blends in perfectly with their song. I just love, love, love that part of the tune.

    I saw them in Wichita Kansas in the early 70's. The last song that they did was Green Eyed L:ady an extended verison. At the end of the song the vocalist and organ player walked back on stage, ran forward jumpin over the organ landing and sliding on his knees right unger the two guitar players swinging their guitars smashing them over the top of him and the crowd went nuts. Loved it . I am now 76 years old and I still listen to all the old rockers of the 60's and 70's's. I love watching Ambers reactions, just perfect.

    I'm so glad you guys hit this. The B3 organ solo is truly epic -- among the best ever recorded, and such a great combination with the bass line. As a keyboardist myself, it took me FOREVER to figure out how the sound around the 7:33 was done. When I finally got it, it was by accident. He TURNED OFF THE MOTOR driving the rotors!
    The B3 has tonewheels spun by an electric motor. That pitch slide is done by turning off the motor (while the rest of the instrument is on), so that the wheels slow down. In that part of the solo the keyboardist turns the motor off and back on a few times. I really LOVE the effect.
    Sadly, this group is the epitome of the one-hit wonder. For whatever reasons, this was far and away their best number.

    Jerry Corbetta is the keyboardist, leader (along with Bob Webber, the guitarist), vocalist and writer. 'Corbetta also toured for nearly five years with Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons as the “fifth season” nicknamed “Guido” by Frankie Vallii - Wikipedia.' Jerry used the percussive effect of the Hammond B3 perfectly in this song, also his use of the clavinet was early in the use of that instrument (Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock, etc. used the clavinet for a great funky sound). The two solos B3, then guitar are pure jazzy lines showing their maturity on their instruments. The driving force that the bass and drums produce drive this tune into a hit that peaked at #3 on the charts. Jerry Corbetta died in 2016, R.I.P. Jerry.

    This Band is INSANE!!!! One of my all-time favorites next to YES!!! They are so freakin Talented!!! And so underrated!!! Love them!!! Love this song!!! Sugarloaf was an American rock band that originated under the name Chocolate Hair in 1968. The band, which formed in Denver, Colorado, scored two Top 10 hits, with the singles "Green-Eyed Lady" and "Don't Call Us, We'll Call You" This band has a psychedelic Jazz/Rock fusion sound to them, but their basic core of their music is Jazz and then they add the Rock or psychedelic Rock vibe to their songs!!! Check out "Don't Call Us."

    The bass line and keyboards really make this song. Jazz chords help it along as well.
    Thanks for reacting!

    Back in the late 70s driving home on leave in the Marine Corps. My Sugarloaf 8 track got stuck in my player. From N.Carolina to N.Michigan, heard Green eyed lady a hundred times. Still an awsome song! 😊✌️

    Who is the green-eyed lady? According to lead singer Jerry Corbetta, it was his girlfriend at the time, Kathy, who is bandmates referred to as the green-eyed lady. He wrote the song with producer J.C. Phillips and a songwriter named David Riordan.

    Don't Call Us, We'll Call You is a must. Van Halen covered it at the beginning of their career. DCUWCY and GEL are both wonderful representations of 70s era music; the music of my childhood.

    I must have heard this song a million times so it's priceless to watch the expressions on your faces as you react to this music for the first time. I think "trippy" is a perfect description for this song. BTW I thought I was the king of classic rock trivia and I know this song's title but if you had asked me before I watched this video I don't think I would have known who the band was. I have heard of the band Sugarloaf before but I didn't know they did this song. I even recognize the graphic you put up. That's the thing about the 60's and 70's. There were so many bands that had just one mega hit single off some album and that's all you knew about the band. I'm sure they had albums out so you can't call them one hit wonders but some bands didn't sell a lot of albums and so they were known to most people by one or two hit singles. It would be like if you only knew one song from the Beatles.
