I was 10 years old when I first heard this song. My father was in the room with me, and he couldn’t believe that I liked this song. I was very excited. He said to me, “you like this? “. I loved it the first time I heard it, and I still love it today 49 years later!
I love when Steve Lukather talks about wanting so bad to be in this band. And Greg also expressed his extreme satisfaction. This is Rock and Roll. Thank you Richie.
One of the greatest musicians of all time....only saw him live once....was with Leon Russell....damn near 40 years ago...incredible show....HE STILL GOT IT....
@@hovsepian a couple Beatles tunes, Rush's YYZ to start i think...i KNEW it was Bisonette when he started the solo, wasnt sure, but i said, THATS Greg Bisonette and im not a big fan -
I certainly heard Ringo's: Come Together, Tomorrow Never Knows, Ticket to Ride, and The End, plus Honkytonk Women, and there was probably some Steve Gadd in there as well.
@@robtristram8395 my Sharona. we're an American band. hot for teacher. walk this way. I think gloria by u2. it's a really great tribute to rock drumming
The Ringo Starr All Star Band concerts are so much fun, went to a couple when living in the Detroit area, it was like seeing 5 great bands all on stage at once, Great for families with kids too. Great memories. Good job Ringo!
I got to meet Edgar and Johnny after a show in Kansas City in 1969. Such warm and humble fellows. I was just a college kid but they were such friendly easy-going guys.
@@jonholland6067 Edgar's band opened. He would play two keyboards at the same time while blowing the sax I had never seen anything like it. In a very short space of a few months I saw Clapton, Townshend and Winter play with their bands.
I met Johnny in a Denny's in Beaumont at about 2 AM after we had just finished playing a gig at a local hotel. He was very nice and tolerated me interrupting his late night meal. Much later I found out that a longtime friend had actually played in a band with Johnny and Edgar back in the early-mid 60s.
Edgar is a genius and he has an incredible Band gathered around.......there will never be a second Edgar Winter.......this man is insane, an artists artist.......Kind regards from Germanistan
Who remembers buying this thing “Frankenstein” on a 45 because you didn’t have enough money for the album and you didn’t even have a stereo yet but you listened to it on your 8 year older sisters record player that your parents got her for her for Christmas one year from the local Western Auto Store (a yes and my sister would grow up to be one of those crazed teenage girls that would go to see Ringo on the Beatles first trip to Chicago) or I would play it on my mom and dad’s portable stereo that was also purchased from the Western Auto Store as well it was put in the garage that my dad had built for his milk truck but he had a supper smooth concrete finish on the floors and he and my mom would host dance parties back then and friends would come over and couples drank and ate and danced the night away to the big band sounds of my dads favorite bands and Crooner’s. But it always benefitted you if you were the little kid because they got you a couple treats like chips or popcorn and a couple bottles of pop for the night go not bother them. But I used to play they 45 out there a lot because it sounded better (it was a stereo) than my sisters mono record player) and I could turn it up louder and with the garage door open my neighbor friends would here it and bring their 45’s over and it was just great. This was an incredible song always was and always will be. Plus Edgar gave us our introduction to another soon to me Great Ronnie MONTROSE! Probably about 25 years after Edg
No doubt, Toto was a jazz band disguised/ confused by the masses as a pop band. Incredible musicianship all around! Under appreciated band, Agreed! RESPECT!
@@skippergoat I am truly blessed. Toto came to Seattle last spring and my daughter got us tickets. they opened for Journey. OMG was so incredible. Have always had a crush on Luke!
My first concert 1974 James gang opened for Edgar Winter with Rick derringer 🎸🎸🎸 I was 15 what a show it smelled so good in the Nashville municipal auditorium?
Had the pleasure of Sitting In First Class with Edgar for 4 hours on our way to Japan 1998. What a great man, we talked about his brother and his situation at the time.Why neither one had children. For Edgar it was because he couldn't give the love, time and attention. That his parents gave to him and Johnny. He also turned me on to a fantastic cocktail. Malibu coconut rum and pineapple juice! A fantastic social cocktail. So glad to see he's still touring with a another legend Ringo!
I'm closer to 60 than 50, and that has got to be one of the more pretentious old fart comments I've heard in a while. Jesus, man. You sound just like my father when I was a "young people" age. No need to be snobby about the fact you grew up in a time of great music.
Love Frankenstein, still play that album, Edgar looks fantastic!! Saw him so many times in the 70’s when I was a teenager. I love Edgar Winters so much, he’s an absolute legend!!❤❤❤
I was there opening night May 27 2022 at Casino Rama Resort, Rama, ON. Canada. Edgar Winter stole the show with Frankenstein. Audience gave him a well deserved standing ovation. Amazing!
I don’t know how I screwed this up but about 25 years after Edgar wrote this Rocker a buddy of mine went and saw him perform this and a bunch more in a bar in near Chicago called “Beginnings” and it was great. And here he is another 20 years later still kickin our asses with his Rock & Roll! Great to see this and love anything that Ringo does. He is an absolute Great Musician So their you have it boys and girls Two Masters of their craft Actually all on stage are Masters by now. And their playing their hearts out for all of us to Enjoy as they Always have. Love, it Love It, Absolutely “LOVE IT!”🐢
Ringo flew back for Elizabeth's Funeral during this song. LOL Great video....saw them in Baltimore. Live was just spectacular....this is great reminder. Thanks.
So awesome to see Mr. Winter still doing his thing... the first rock album I ever brought was "They only come out at Night" by the Edgar Winter Group and I had to be 12 or 13 and I still have it till this day.... Big thumbs up!
That was fu(king beautiful... more so because I remember when this song first came out a million years ago, an seen then as very young men. To see this today still masterful give me SO MUCH pleasure;-))
Thank you for continuing your journey in music as young musicians we grew learning and playing your music it was our music school as well as many musicians today thank you God Bless you and all your band members. Drummer N.C 64
Edgar is such a nerd. I mean that in the most affectionate way. For years now, every time the world famous Texan performs his "jam song," he says, "Are you ready for the monster?" and then leads in with, "In the laboratory once upon a time at work was a doctor named Frankenstein." It has come to be expected. I love it. Hope he never stops.
Thast was a great rock drumming class. Oh wait, there were other people there too? I remember first hearing this back in the early seventies. It still kicks butt. I think it's even longer now too. :)
Our beloved old super bands and stars are fantastic. However, it is also a fact that in recent years, measured by the TOP 50 hit lists of the largest music markets in the world, no human musicians were involved in more than 80% of the songs / hit recordings. And the computer-generated sound is still on the rise. So let's all support young musicians who make handmade music. Only if we buy their records, DVDs and merch do we enable the young bands and musicians to turn their passion into a profession and also to be able to make a living from it. The ROCK N ROLL is crying out for help folks...🤘🎸🎹🎷🎤🎺🥁🤘.
Love Edgar's Sax solo because it is ROCK,no stuffy nose jazz and the pretty chord.! Jazz is not Rock.Thank You Edgar Winter Group ( they not come out at night!) Old Chris a retired fiddler of Albuquerque NM
I never heard Edgar play the sax. I watched Johnny in the mid 1970’s. My best friends brother brought Johnny to his home studio after one of Johnny’s concerts. they played through the night.
You should've left the roar of the crowd to play for a few seconds. Out of hundreds of concerts the two times I saw Edgar were the two best shows I ever saw! Amazing Showman.
I'm instantly 10 again whenever I hear this song. Memories of listening to the local radio station playing this on my cheap Craig stereo in my little bedroom with my mom yelling - "TURN THAT THING DOWN" as I moved the knob from 10 to maybe 8. Then back up again. Thank you Mr. Edgar Winter.
Edgar never got the full recognition he deserved. SO damn good. Musical genius!!!
He is, he could literally play any instrument on that stage!!!
Going to see him in a couple nights in Richmond. Can't wait!
and he is an amazing singer also. Check out Tobacco Road
@@alzeppo brother Johnny was there too, lest we forget.
Agree...
I was 10 years old when I first heard this song. My father was in the room with me, and he couldn’t believe that I liked this song. I was very excited. He said to me, “you like this? “. I loved it the first time I heard it, and I still love it today 49 years later!
you can play it?
It’s Alive!
And I remember this too! I was 9 years old and loved it. Seeing him perform it now blows my mind.
Come on and take a free ride ! Massive! 1972’
@@rayellinwood2882 so we’ll said !
50 years listening this song and still rocks.
Facts
My first concert, Edgar top bill, r. Derringer, bad company to open,1974 Philadelphia, spectrum
TRUTH👍
👍😎 Ya man!
About the same here (I'm almost 64)! And as aside, as a Sax player myself (kinda) I can tell you bending notes on a sax ain't easy! 🤣
Killer tune. They Only Come Out At Night is still a great album. Thanks Edgar and Johnny Winter for all the classic rock.
"Jasmine Nightdreams" is excellent, too.
I love when Steve Lukather talks about wanting so bad to be in this band.
And Greg also expressed his extreme satisfaction.
This is Rock and Roll.
Thank you Richie.
But where’s Lukather’s featured solo? That;s what I want to know…🤷🏽♂️
Edgar....wow. So much talent. Great band here.
One of the greatest musicians of all time....only saw him live once....was with Leon Russell....damn near 40 years ago...incredible show....HE STILL GOT IT....
I saw him with Leon in Sacramento, back in the 80s!
Leon was THEE man (Imagine Edgar @Concert for Bangla Desh!)
Saw him in Bangor Maine in 1975
My first concert was seeing him in Portland, Oregon in the early 1970's. The man just refuses to age.
My first show ever in 1977....Edgar Winter and Blue Oyster Cult. Saw him 4 more times over the years. ALWAYS A GREAT SHOW.
Greg riffing on so many famous drum beats and fills in that solo- the man is a beast and a master.
Rolling Stones, Van Halen, Ginger Baker, and ???
@@hovsepian a couple Beatles tunes, Rush's YYZ to start i think...i KNEW it was Bisonette when he started the solo, wasnt sure, but i said, THATS Greg Bisonette and im not a big fan -

Too much reefer smoking to be kid friendly.
Like being in a Rock n Roll Living Room..Ringo is Very Gracious..I saw him mid 1990s..Great Simple Fun..

This song never ages. Sounds as fresh today as it was when first released
Lukather and Toto should be in the Hall of Fame. Besides Toto's hits, the band played on over 5000 (yes, FIVE THOUSAND) other artists albums
No doubt, Toto was a jazz band disguised/ confused by the masses as a pop band.
Incredible musicianship all around! Under appreciated band, Agreed! RESPECT!
I agree Toto is one of my favorite bands
@@skippergoat I am truly blessed. Toto came to Seattle last spring and my daughter got us tickets. they opened for Journey. OMG was so incredible. Have always had a crush on Luke!
Nice job by Lukather, serving the song. And the song - it's like visiting with an old friend, always brings a smile.
good to see steve in the lineup
OH
MY
GOD
I’ve heard this song for almost all of my life, but man oh man, I’ve never heard it like this.
My mind is just completely blown!
My first concert 1974 James gang opened for Edgar Winter with Rick derringer 🎸🎸🎸
I was 15 what a show it smelled so good in the Nashville municipal auditorium?
UNREAL!
That drum miking on Gregs' kit is amazing. Just killer sound there.

PS...thank you for sharing this with us all...E..
This is the greatest rock song ever written. It has the best beginning, the best middle, and the best ending.
Yeah that breakdown before the saxophone part is just hard and funky!!!
I heard Will Ferrel once said the same thing about a song he wrote about a rock…….🪨
It's only let down by that bit of silence just before it starts.
Highway star
I reckon Greg could play for anyone. All those fills an beats from some famous hits!
There's a frightening amount of talent on that stage!!!
Steve Lukather
There's nothing to be scared of, just enjoy
@@csmith553 hahaha!! I worked in the recording industry for 18 years. 1992-2010
The Edgar Winter Group was my first concert back in 1975 or so. They were great. I'm glad he's still going strong and that Ringo is too.
We were at this show, fifth row, so much fun! The whole band was just having a good time, and the audience ate it up!
I was there opening night May 27 2022 at Casino Rama Resort, Rama, ON. Canada. Edgar Winter stole the show with Frankenstein. Audience gave him a well deserved standing ovation. Amazing!
Keyboard, Saxaphone and Drums! Edger rocks more than most!!!
SO many iconic drum 🥁 parts in his solo! Incredible!!
I was at this Very best rendition 've ever heard Pittsburgh
Johnny & Edgar - absolute legendary beasts of music. This is great - thank u for sharing.
Saw Him with Ringo about 5 or so years ago. 🤘🏻 And Greg Bissonette!!!!! 🤘🏻
I love that song and the entire album. My brother turned me on to it. Great music lives forever.
Damn, Edgar is still fookin amazing
Still killin it after all these yrs. Sick transition to from the synthesiser solo to the sax solo!
Awesome is understated
Frankenstein is a great solo piece. Perfect for a live show.
Great... I saw them with KISS in 76' at Jersey City Stadium , NJ
i went to this show and it was so amazing i would hope someone recorded this part
mind blowing that he did all those other instruments..I did not know he was that proficient..amazing..
Thanks Greg for that legendary Drum solo. THATS HOW ITS DONE!!!
Greg who? Damn that was a great solo? Who did he play with?
Love all the references to classic songs in that drum solo!

Mr Greg nailed that solo! Very entertaining and musical. Well done and thank you, kind Sir.
🤟😎🤘
Saw Edgar perform this at Nippert Stadium in Cincinnati OH in the summer of 1973, one of my first live rock concerts.

I remember when the played this at Disneyland in "73"! Had just graduated Navy boot camp and had gone there for weekend leave.
ONE OF THE GREAT HARD ROCK SONG EVER FiFTY YEARS AGO !!!

I remember the day this hit the radio. I was a kid scouting out the girls. SUCH cool stuff. Rock on everyone!!!
Haven't heard it since the 70's, a revelation then, a revelation now, Edgar Winter is phenomenal.
Spectacular! Such an under rated musician in so many musical instruments.
AWESOME! CLASSIC!!!!👌👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Seeing them again this year!!!! Clearwater, Florida, September 26th, 2023!!!
I was in second row for this show, it was a great concert. Thanks for uploading
WOW so fantastic. And praises be that UA-cam did not interrupt this masterpiece with an ad.
Thast was a great rock drumming class. Oh wait, there were other people there too? I remember first hearing this back in the early seventies. It still kicks butt. I think it's even longer now too. :)
WOW! That band is TIGHT! Drum legend G. Bissonette & myself share the same birthday June 9th 1959!
It was even better in person Edgar and the whole band rock it was a dream come true. Peace and Love ✌️

I had a great time seeing Edgar in 1972 at the Akron Rubber Bowl along with Humble Pie and Black Sabbath. What more can I say.
Why did Greg point towards Edgar during In a Gada da Vida.
Anyone figure that out??? Let me know.
73 AND STILL LOVIN' IT.... JUST FFFFFING AWESOME....

The ol boy still has it going on.Thus song permeated my whole being...stillwith me.Thanks Winter...
You should've left the roar of the crowd to play for a few seconds. Out of hundreds of concerts the two times I saw Edgar were the two best shows I ever saw! Amazing Showman.
I remember seeing he was headlining at Disney world in 1976. I was way young. He’s still headlining 50 years later
OMG that was FIRE! Thanks for posting!
Edgar winter amd this band sound unbelievably great
Edgar Winter. They only come out at night. I loved that record the first time I heard it. Nothing else like it.
When you see these guys it's clear you're seeing the real deal. Each one a true professional and each one so accomplished.
They Only Come Out At Night! Great album!

First time I heard this song on the high school radio hour at noon it was a revelation. His brother was a favourite of mine.
We saw them in June before the band had covid it was amazing.
