This kid singing is real good. His parents must feel amazing seeing their son paying tribute to a legend. The whole band is fantastic and all the sax players, awesome tribute
I thought it might be an instrumental tribute, because who would you put in the position of singing this song as a tribute. The guy did a great job in capturing the emotional impact of the lyrics. 10 stars.
This is my favorite song from the 70s, after I heard this song, I made a trip to London from New York to visit Baker Street with my wife. She passed away recently. I missed her so much and I missed Gerry Rafferty, I missed the 70s.......................
I'm sorry for your loss. The sax riff has been one of those things in the back of my head all my life and I only just finally learned the name of the song. It's been stuck in my head ever since. I hope it brings back good memories for you
During my stay in UK in 1977-78 i love .the song Baker street. I stayed in Kenwoood House Hotel in Glousester. street. Now i could hear it agaain in Burma. Thanks UA-cam. I keep it now for everytime i want. I kove Mr Gerry.
@@thursoberwick1948 Come on Thurso. This was all about feeling good and having fun. This goal was achieved. If you want the real deal, there is always the original version.
@@PhilosophusMansisses I'm sure some people enjoyed themselves, but it's tacky. If you do this kind of thing on a regular basis, then people associate the song with this.
This was an absolutely awesome tribute to Gerry! I have to believe he's somewhere smiling and genuinely touched by this wonderful remembrance of him and his absolutely fantastic song, "Baker Street."
Blown away... Just amazed into tears, real tears - I lost it when that young lad ripped into that solo. Well done EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU. Hats off to the Paisley2021. Three cheers, mates.
This so badass, that group sax sound at the intro is really powerful... As someone who grew up when ‘Baker Street’ came out on the radio this really evokes some powerful emotions... this sounds like a herd of elephants, trunks raised in perfect harmony sounding out a warpath call to march! Those drums and the guitar solo are excellent! Gerry Rafferty would be very stoked!
So. Many. People. Playing. Saxophones. In. Such. Harmony. This. Sound. Track. Would be. The best. Track for. This. The. Timeing. Was. So. Perfect. Keep up the good work. Guys
I've just come across that video and love the whole thing.All those people ,young and old, rocking together,give me chills.The singer and the guitar player are particularly great .Keep rocking.
OMG....Whos listening in August 2021❤❤❤ THIS IS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC... I'm in tears watching these BEAUTIFUL and very talented musicians😢😢 Just as good as the original AND that young man singing....WOWWWW THANKYOU YOU made the world SMILE watching this in this horrific second year of the pandemic... GOD BLESS YOU ALL❤🙏
How on earth did you get so many talented people in one place, FANTASTIC, just found this video today and it blew my socks off, got to be one of the best video's on UA-cam
I'm glad to know that there are people who homage to such great musicians and authors, who do not die those incredible musical pieces and more than that, give them that importance they deserve
Ever since i was young an heard this song,made me fall in love with the saxophone an especially how George Thoragood plays his in his songs,it touches my soul.
Great tribute. I'm sure Rafferty is looking smiling. IMO, the drums really made this song have a great beat. Sax's were great too, everything was great.
ce que je trouve le plus cool est que tant de jeunes, qui n'étaient meme pas nés quand ce titre est sorti, l'apprécient autant.leurs parents non plus si ça se trouve, n'étaient pas nés😀.comme quoi quand une chanson est bonne et meme très bonne , elle traverse les époques.et puis l'ajout de ce solo de saxo est tout simplement génial😎.et bien sur bravo au jeune chanteur et au jeune guitariste solo qui assurent grave😎
In USA . Song was a HIT 1978 .. I was 19, in US Coast Guard Boot Camp ... after evening chow we were allowed ONE HOUR of radio listening... THIS song played a LOT .. it helped me through my rigorous Basic Training! (I LOVES me this song!!)
I was deep down south on the at a service station on the M 5 I was 13 we where going to Cornwall thanks for the memories greetings from south Lanarkshire
Thank you for posting this. When this song came out, it was a really monumental time in my life. I was still in the Navy and wondering where I wanted to be in life. But I knew that I would be happy.
Sencillamente maravilloso. Esa canción en la voz de Rafferty y el solo de saxo me llegaron al alma la primera vez que la escuché...bello, sublime, un placer hermoso.
WOW! Learning the saxophone without learning and playing this classic is a gross injustice! Glad to see these younger artists keeping this classic alive!
I'm speechless. Just knowing this exists, I think I could possibly love the world again. This is, without doubt, one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.
I understand that everyone in this video, both performers and audience has been buried together in a time capsule so that when future generations open it up, they will be blown off their feet ! Or like me they could just watch the video. Brilliant. Thanks to everyone involved.
My new favorite video. I can't get watch/listen to it enough. And the group with the plastic saxophones dancing in the crowd were great to watch as well!
Baker Street is one of those songs that is so closely linked to its composer/performer that any artist attempting a cover version is taking a risk. This rendition was brilliant. Great guitar solo too.
@@thursoberwick1948 It appears to me you are another one with no talent other than knocking those that are enjoying themselves. Too much keyboard envy.
@@johnfoster3286 This video is full of grannies playing air sax and school kids who can play some, along with a second string indy singer. The main problem here is that Rafferty didn't write the saxophone material (despite what credits say), though that's the part they're connecting with Paisley. "Stuck in the Middle with You" is more Rafferty. Now jog on...
Fantastic ! That young drummer was super, really keeps the whole thing tight and together. Thanks for telling me about it, George, and pointing me in the direction of this wonderful video.
I could watch this over and over. In fact I'm going to. Love the effort and the love that went into all of this - and the random folk at work or walking about with wee sax's - love it all

You serious? He stinks
He's exceptional. Funny how he's a little flat in areas, but still sounds fantastic. That's a great singer that can make the wrong note sound good.
He didn't even get the words right. He's horrible. Gerry should rise from his grave and slap the fuck out of him.
I thought it might be an instrumental tribute, because who would you put in the position of singing this song as a tribute. The guy did a great job in capturing the emotional impact of the lyrics. 10 stars.
No he's not. He's crap. Why is he singing with an american accent. Just sounds wrong.
There is a Baker Street in Glasgow southside in shawlands 😆 gerry was a great artist great tribute
Love seeing all the youth one playing instruments and then playing this magnificent song that was well before their time.
That guitar player ripped it! Awesome version and a great tribute to a great artist!
This is my favorite song from the 70s, after I heard this song, I made a trip to London from New York to visit Baker Street with my wife. She passed away recently. I missed her so much and I missed Gerry Rafferty, I missed the 70s.......................

That lad absolutely killed the solo. Awesome tone
Guitar solo is the only decent part of this sorry mess.

Fantastic tribute to Gerry Rafferty..from his hometown Paisley, Scotland

Is that where this is,awesome
@@carlwhite3634 Me too
This was an absolutely awesome tribute to Gerry! I have to believe he's somewhere smiling and genuinely touched by this wonderful remembrance of him and his absolutely fantastic song, "Baker Street."
The dead are sleeping
They deserved a much bigger audience.
Air sax??...by people who weren’t born when the song came out?
Impressed. Shows the power of the song
good to see these young kids taking interest in these classics.
What a wonderful tribute too a musical icon.Can you hear us Gerry?
yea, a wonderful tribute that the people who actually reside in that neighborhood may not want to be a part of. Rude bastards.
AWESOME!!
Turning in his grave.

Remove the 'periods' after everywhere word.
That was very good.The young lad sung it very well and the rest of the band got it spot on.
I could spend eternity in the 70's !
Ken you and me both!!!!! If there is a Heaven going back to the 70’s would be it for me. I will be 64 in. April 2021. Peace to you
Young people playing a decent song. Very nice. The world can be saved...
Thanks for the six minute smile. That was great.
How could you not love that, brilliant brilliant brilliant.
Mr Ravenscroft....look what you did...still gives me goosebumps...what an awesome event....
they're all fantastic, I'm a garage band drummer, so, that drummer is really really in it!
I've just come across that video and love the whole thing.All those people ,young and old, rocking together,give me chills.The singer and the guitar player are particularly great .Keep rocking.

Gerry would've loved this. Well done.
Oh how I wish I was there, with my alto. Totally moving and magical.
Man wish I was there! Gave me chills!
This is fantastic I think Gerry rafferty would have love to hear this
The guitar solo is great... The rest though.
Yeah
Just the kind of silliness the world needs right now.
How on earth did you get so many talented people in one place, FANTASTIC, just found this video today and it blew my socks off, got to be one of the best video's on UA-cam
That was amazing. I lost some tears because of how good it was. A good tribute to Gerry Rafferty in his hometown.
Beautiful rendition...Gerry would be proud....Well done Boys and Girls!
No he wouldn't!! He would make him hold his drink while he whacked him across the back of the skull with a saxophone.
Baker Street sax riff the best of all time RIP G.R.
WHAT WONDERFUL MATERPIECE OF BAKER STREET WIITH THIESE SAXOPHONES!!!❤❤💓
What a great tribute to an amazing musician.
I don’t know why but this makes me emotional as hell!
I'm glad to know that there are people who homage to such great musicians and authors, who do not die those incredible musical pieces and more than that, give them that importance they deserve
How I wish Gerry were still with us.
Ever since i was young an heard this song,made me fall in love with the saxophone an especially how George Thoragood plays his in his songs,it touches my soul.

Magic! The little girl in pink sax player...made my day.
wow that was amazing from a diverse group of people
God bless Paisley. I love a bit of city pride. Well done folks, and keep building up Paisley.
As an English man from Manchester Absolutely wonderful you did Gerry proud.Very well done to you all.
I can't stop watching this, fantastic, loads of people and so much soul.
Me too
@@bryantaylor7055 wow the days when there was no corona and people were happy,seems a little weird seeing them without masks
True ! It's brilliant !
Oh my god.......BEAUTIFUL
Also, that guitar! Wow! Great solo
I could give this MULTIPLE thumbs up !!WOW !
Only just discovered this video! City to City is one of my favorite albums! How happy & motivating! 🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷🎷
Love this with all the saxes! The drummer was tight, but I'm surprised no one noticed the great guitar riff!
Outstanding !
Oh yes, we did notice it. 💞
Si si !! Pas manchot le guitariste !🤟
The kid doin the vocals too!
I totally agree about every element of this EXCEPT for the lead guitar solo; he was way off key for most of it! Sax players are really good!
Bloody brilliant, one of THE most iconic songs of all time, loved it :)
Fantastic!!! Gerry would be proud of that stellar performance!!! Everyone played there part perfectly take a bow all
"Perfectly"? Really? 😀
so so beautiful !!! gerry would be smiling up there in ❤👌👏👏👏
The people of Paisley doing PROUD for their own superstar! Done well✌️
Thoroughly enjoyable and it was cool seeing all the different generations rocking out this iconic song.
MY GOD !! so much power ans sound for one of my favorite songs ever MADE !!! amazing ......
loved this for so many reasons it gladdens my heart to see so many young sax players and enjoying Gerrys music. Well Done everyone was amazing
Absolutely loved it. Choked me up and brought a tear (or more) to my eye. I just love the sound of that sax.🎵
only in UK can this happen. such a bleak dark song being danced upon. kudos to the creative genius of Gerry and raphael
Remembering the talents of Gerry Rafferty! Fantastic!! Good souls here
That kid on vocals is AWESOME
You must be deaf, he was dreadful!!
RIP Gerry, you are loved my brother...............
What an absolutely fantastic tribute to Gerry, paisley, take bow
In USA . Song was a HIT 1978 .. I was 19, in US Coast Guard Boot Camp ... after evening chow we were allowed ONE HOUR of radio listening... THIS song played a LOT .. it helped me through my rigorous Basic Training! (I LOVES me this song!!)
I was deep down south on the at a service station on the M 5 I was 13 we where going to Cornwall thanks for the memories greetings from south Lanarkshire
Absolute quality.....this song is a fantastic legacy...always be a classic #ripgerry 👊👊
best sax line ever!
Bravo!
You crushed it !
Wonderful !
Brought tears to my eyes
Great voice. Get his name out there. Give him a recording contract. Love all the sax! True community getting together!
Thank you for posting this. When this song came out, it was a really monumental time in my life. I was still in the Navy and wondering where I wanted to be in life. But I knew that I would be happy.
Thankyou for making me remind of this great song. i am a japanese.
Sencillamente maravilloso. Esa canción en la voz de Rafferty y el solo de saxo me llegaron al alma la primera vez que la escuché...bello, sublime, un placer hermoso.
I always wondered how this would sound with multiple sax ... absolutely fantastic is the answer ... I so wish I'd been there 👍
WOW! Learning the saxophone without learning and playing this classic is a gross injustice! Glad to see these younger artists keeping this classic alive!
No one´s been mentioning the guitar guy. Well put mate.
Quelle magnifique mélodie! Et les saxophones…waouh…. J’en ai les larmes aux yeux..
I'm speechless. Just knowing this exists, I think I could possibly love the world again.
This is, without doubt, one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.
Well done guys, I am sure Gerry is happy, you obviously make his days and mine
I'm here because my Granddaughter is starting sax next school year. She loved it !
Excellent. Resonates with the soul. My Dad’s ancestors came from the Isle of Bute, Scotland, just slightly west of Paisley.
I understand that everyone in this video, both performers and audience has been buried together in a time capsule so that when future generations open it up, they will be blown off their feet !
Or like me they could just watch the video. Brilliant. Thanks to everyone involved.
The singer and band are excellent, guitar, bass, drummer along with Sax - superb!
This boy sins with a voice like Gerry Rafferty ! A miracle ! Welll done. , great ! 👏👏👏👏👏🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶👏👏👏🫢🫢🫢💫💫💫⭐️⭐️🙏🙏🙏
My new favorite video. I can't get watch/listen to it enough. And the group with the plastic saxophones dancing in the crowd were great to watch as well!
Am I the only one crying like a baby here? This song definitely touches my soul. Great job guys, Gerry is proud of you! Greetings from Brazil
I've just got something in my eye,so yes it's only you.Fantastic performance,they did Gerry proud on this one!
Baker Street is one of those songs that is so closely linked to its composer/performer that any artist attempting a cover version is taking a risk. This rendition was brilliant. Great guitar solo too.
Allergies...really.
My pal Alan Grey appears in sunglasses on the 52nd second of this video. Regardless, absolutely spectacular.
I have heard many covers of this song,,but this version has the best guitar solo ever.. Hope the guitarist is doing good.
The guitar solo is great. The rest is embarrassing.

I will always love this song,it reminds me of the good old days,hi Gerry!
