I can't even explain why but at 66 years old this beautiful song we just disagree has just jumped back into my mind and I just missed the 70s so much this song is one of the reasons why just pure pure beauty fantastic
He seemed to be a very talented songwriter and such a loss of a musical genius. Way to talented to go so soon to a crippling addiction of alcoholism. Way too many gone because of a life crushing addiction of some type or another
He’s pretty clearly a gifted guitarist, as this show (especially All Along the Watchtower demonstrate) but I do know he was considered one of the top harmony singers of the late 70’s. He also wrote The Bears Still Suck…wide demographic
Dave's voice sounds higher when he speaks, but when he starts singing, it goes into a deeper, mellow voice. Love it!! I loved this song when it came out in the late 70's, and just pretty well came upon it again in the last year or so. Enjoy seeing all the various videos of him/group, playing thru the years. At times, he sounds better today!
Wonderful timeless song sorry to hear Jim passed and young at 42 TBT didn't think I'd see 42 from alcohol my father died in 71 at 41 still miss him greatly
Empathies, Eric....Lost my Father in '72 at a relatively young age, also, from the disease of alcoholism. Loved him dearly. It would seem you are in lifetime recovery....takes immeasurable strength, courage, support & faith. God speed.
Jim was from Manitowoc…small Wisconsin town…so very proud of him…his Manitowoc group was “Grease,” many wonderful concerts seeing him perform as a young man…
Always appreciated DM (and Jim Krieger) followed Dave through Traffic, what a force! Almost teamed up with EC. He did provide the descending bass run on "Let it Rain" and the break full of reverb. Can't forget "Alone Together!!" Thanks for your soundtrack. Makes me want to pick up another l2string I WAS TOTALLY WRONG. IT WAS STEVEN STILLS ON "LET IT RAIN". FORGIVE
Met Jim at a bar in Manitowoc,WI he was so down to earth and played beautifully even met his girlfriend and was invited back to his home. Just an amazing person I loved watching him play around the Manitowoc area and was so talented he could play anything with strings. I remember he wrote a song about his girlfriend titled “You Can’t Teach a Woman to Drink”. Jim was just a fantastic human being and his star burned bright!!!
Same here. Saw them at the Hotel duPont in Wilmington Del, in what I remember to be a large conference room. Such an intimate setting, Jim on 12-string and Dave on the six-string. Not an amp in the house.
I saw these two just a few years after this video was made in Cincinnati at Bogart's, two friends were the opening act, and Jim's guitar electronics were whacked, so he borrowed one of the guitars from my friends. The two main things I remember about the concert were Dave barking at the sound guys because the monitors weren't up high enough (the sound was often bad there in the 80's as it's a tough room to run sound in, basically a brick rectangle) and the house mix was entirely too loud for an acoustic duo; and Jim Kreuger just absolutely tearing it up on a solo on the borrowed guitar and never leaving that chair! Great song, great artists, sad that he died so young.
I would never criticize either of these two. But I always remember, when it came on the radio in H.S., thinking Damn, it's over already. I always wished there was another verse. So, I am definitely no fan of the faster tempo. Still a beautiful tune though.
Kinda hard to play this song always the same way. At this point in time, he'd probably already played it a 1000 times. Too slow? That's what I thought about the Dave Mason "Every Woman" remake vs the original from "It's Like You Never Left" which was quicker and has Crosby and Nash on background vocals. Several Perkins Palace songs are redone to a 2-man format here notably All Along the Watchtower which was hard to listen to after his electric from the Dave Mason album which was superb and only topped by his Live at Sunrise version which for my money is his best recorded version
I grew up with this song when it first came out. It was hypnotic and so melodic. I'm curious...does anyone know how they are tuning those 12-strings? Is it some kind of "slack" key tuning?
yup, open E, 12 string guitar. Kind of a brilliant choice. He's dead so I can't ask, but I'd love to know when/how he came up with that idea. Fits the song perfectly.
I can't even explain why but at 66 years old this beautiful song we just disagree has just jumped back into my mind and I just missed the 70s so much this song is one of the reasons why just pure pure beauty fantastic
Two 12-strings in open tuning. Sometimes it sounds like one autoharp! Masters of performance.
My generation was just overly blessed with such talented singers song writers and musicians,
Absolutely 💯
I agree
Maybe there is a lot of talent out there, but no one to promote it. Only potential millionaires are motivated to find new music. Pretty jaded, I am
I completely agree 💯%....Born in 1953 Fantabulous Music 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶
Amen to that!
It just never gets old
I must have played this song on Vinyl over 100;times growing up It’s still one of my favorite Dave Mason tunes
You're not alone.....I might have hit the thousands with this one...always a favorite.
This song is a vintage gem.
No flashing lights, or dancers to distract the audience from lipsinging. Just real talented musicians..ty for the video
And no need for 10,000 cellphones all serving as surrogate brains! :)
I remember listening to this man's music when I was 17!I'm now 65!CLASSICS!!!
Krieger died so young. 42 yrs. old. Alcoholism. What a great talent. Great and timeless music. Brings tears to my eyes !!
awww, didn't know
He seemed to be a very talented songwriter and such a loss of a musical genius. Way to talented to go so soon to a crippling addiction of alcoholism. Way too many gone because of a life crushing addiction of some type or another
Sad.
Thank you...had not a clue...yes, what a tragic, untimely loss. Hideous disease.
He’s pretty clearly a gifted guitarist, as this show (especially All Along the Watchtower demonstrate) but I do know he was considered one of the top harmony singers of the late 70’s. He also wrote The Bears Still Suck…wide demographic
Still listening to this song after all these years....
Jim Krueger was always my favorite!! RIP
I remember hearing this song on the radio while plowing snow during the blizzard of 1978 in Boston.
the smells, sites and sounds come back so clearly.
NH Here
I was on the cape during that storm
Thanks, Jim.
Classic.
God Bless

Singing from his chest voice
Wow! If that doesn't take us back a few years! Acoustic guitars, 12 strings, sound very nice. Oh, so I don't forget, Dave has hair.
Love those harmonies!
I cannot even begin to tell you the memories this brings...love lost
Wonderful timeless song sorry to hear Jim passed and young at 42 TBT didn't think I'd see 42 from alcohol my father died in 71 at 41 still miss him greatly

@@communitypark2313 sorry for your loss we never get over we get thru it we have the good memories God speed to you
Krueger is a songwriting legend. RIP!
Jim was from Manitowoc…small Wisconsin town…so very proud of him…his Manitowoc group was “Grease,” many wonderful concerts seeing him perform as a young man…
What a terrific performance. Sounds great with just the two of them. Thanks for the upload.
I remember seeing Dave mason perform at Belmont Park,many moons ago.He’s still rocking in the free world.

I WAS TOTALLY WRONG. IT WAS STEVEN STILLS ON "LET IT RAIN". FORGIVE
Keep rockin in the free world
Have a signed guitar from Dave Mason for a concert for US veterans to help them in time of need
👍
That is awesome. I've never met anyone famous or collected any real famous collectible items. I bet it sounds fantastic.
💕❤❤
This song has has came in the most exact perfect time than any other song ever...if you know than you know
@@troywilliams6849 👍I feel ya
I saw these two live in my old H S auditorium about the time this was recorded. Good seats up close too.

Very good story. Someone here mentioned that Jim died of alcoholism, is this true.?
Dave Mason is a star that just won't burn out!
Dave played rhythm on Hendrix’s version of “All Along the Watchtower.”
Just bought this on iTunes ❤always loved it.
Love the 12 string ❤
Jim was so talented. Just a beast, musically. Such a shame to have lost him. RIP
best concert I have ever been to... two guys.. awesome vocals awesome talent..
So good !!!

saw him at Red Rocks in Colorado way back in the day, so Damn talented
This song is far superior to the crap they play today
OK Boomer.
@@mollywright524 how did you ever guess? 😆
Saw him in the late 70's at Pepperdine University
The M E R Concert
Great song and excellent performance!
Jimmy krueger... What a voice eh? Rest in peace gunslinger. Amazing tune.

I seen Dave Mason in concert back in the 70s in Central Park in New York City what a great concert
I have loved his music since the 70's. I am going to see him in concert
I was blessed to see Jim K. With Dave Mason in MA@ SCHAEFFER STADIUM, who remembers that??
Outstanding music and performers.
I remember Love on the Beach, Love 94 FM
Dave was a regular 👍
Palmetto 78 ✌️
Viva Cristo Rey 🙏
Nice to see the 12 strings in the mix!
Jim Kreuger. Period.
Krueger
RIP Jim
Great dave mason..🎸
Great song. Haven't heard it in a long time.
These guys are amazing I seen Dave Mason in concert 4 times
Yes
You're a lucky guy!
@@pbhansen1449 People smile and say I'm the lucky one 🤔 Wasn't that Loggins and Messina 🤣🤣✌️
Saw
@@tonygville2969 yes, Danny's song, covered by Ann Murray as well
I just think this song is Briliant. Love that it plays twice on this one video!
Great song🎼🎤🎶🎶🎶🎸🎸
Rest in Peace Jim Krueger🙏🏼🕊️🙏🏼
Top 10 greatest song ever!!!!
Even if you don’t write the lyrics? Even if you don’t write the song? You can sooo FEEL IT and SING IT!!
Such an amazing voice. Love him.
DAVE !!! SEE you in CT 2021 !!!!!!!!!!!
Rock on! RIP Jimmy
Jim was from Manitowoc wisconsin
A gem.
So nice I’ll hear it twice
Manitowoc Wisconsin...
@Sabrina N yes!! 💜
The Bruiser
Yes! After he returned from LA, I'd see him play in Green Bay.
Why don't we just run through it in almost double time. NO!
Nice,,,,
always bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The black duct-tape repair on Dave's black guitar. :)
It's on both guitars. Most likely not a repair but may be securing the wire for the pickup??
I think it’s covering the sound hole to prevent feedback.
Saw him last week- fantastic- !! Why are they playing this so fast !!! 8 ball or coffee ?? Rip Jim 😢
Agree fast. Also agree chemically induced.
@@theholenewworld we dont know that
@@TheBlueCream
You don't. We do.
YOU ~ ROCK ! !
If it’s too fast then try 0.75 speed that’s a bit closer to the original pace.
I would never criticize either of these two. But I always remember, when it came on the radio in H.S., thinking Damn, it's over already. I always wished there was another verse. So, I am definitely no fan of the faster tempo. Still a beautiful tune though.
I'd heard this was the first song Krueger ever published.
Love it
Wonderful to watch! Wish they hadn't raced through it like they'd just stolen something!

Idk Croz and Nash did backing vocals on this song! Awesome !
This has a faster beat than. Usual but still good.
I grew up with this song when it first came out. It was hypnotic and so melodic.
I'm curious...does anyone know how they are tuning those 12-strings? Is it some kind of "slack" key tuning?
Open E..
I just play it in concert pitch E
I used to tune mine on the 6 string tuner, then for the secondary 6, go to the 12 th fret and copy the string
yup, open E, 12 string guitar. Kind of a brilliant choice. He's dead so I can't ask, but I'd love to know when/how he came up with that idea. Fits the song perfectly.
Open E
whoever did the videotography, great job
Great song, back 2 back, no thanks.
Love this song but this performance sounds too fast and w/o emotion, like they were just knocking it out to get it over with.
What kind of tuning is that called?
Open E
What's Dave laughing at before the intro
Heh heh heh...
If you have to ask...
Heh heh heh...
What the hell...just trying to get off the stage. @ times the speed.
Yea..seemed quite rushed.
When the coke kicks in 😂😂😂
Yep. Flying. Still great tho
Levi Omundson ??
Obviously had to catch a plane...
Yeah this is triple time but still six minutes worth absolutely!
I hope not !
I need a divorce attorney 😢 A beautiful way to MOVE ON with respect
They could have gone faster.
Slow increases bass
Too fast.
Yes, too fast
It's three minutes. The song is listed at three minutes six seconds I think.
Yep
@@anakina1
Nope. It doesn't start til 37 seconds in. About 2½ minutes
Man-was everyone on coke ?
It wasn't Jim Kreuger. He didn't use drugs.
@@sammccue500 he died of alcoholism
Dave is coked up.
Yeah Manitowoc
