One of my favorite Steve Miller songs. Watching you rock out to the song, wondering when you were going stop it to comment. You got right into it. Loved it.
I love your content man. I've been asking this for a while, but please check out the album Liars by Todd Rundgren. You'll really enjoy it. And so will everyone watching. Todd is a legend with tons of hits. But this album isn't know as much by the masses. It's a definite gem
Abacadabra, Jet Airliner, Take the Money and Run and Space Cowboy are also musts for anyone wanting to check out Steve Miller.. Jamel, thanks for checking these guys out!! I hope you enjoy it..
Steve Miller's lyrics were like a treasure trove for the dirty mind: "Jungle love in the surf in the pouring rain, everything's better when wet" "Really love your peaches, wanna shake your tree."
Such a fun song! My jungle love / Oh-wee-oh-wee-oh / Think I wanna know ya / Know ya / Jungle love / Oh-wee-oh-wee-oh / Girl, I'd love to show ya / Show ya
@@larryronkq586 I agree, but Abracadabra was 1982 and was a huge hit for him, even though I didn't love it love it, and his album Living in the 20th Century came out in 1986 and had a big rock charts hit with I Want to Make The World Turn Around. I loved that album because half of it was covers of old blues songs.
Steve Miller Band, Bad Company, Journey, Foreigner, REO, were some awesome bands, The list goes on of amazing bands...When music was music with actual bands. Loved it, Thanks J. Peace
I remember 1978 State Fair in Raleigh, NC and EVERY ride you would go to, Steve Miller Band was blasting out loud over the speakers! It’s was awesome!! Good times. You’ll have to check out more Steve Miller. Good stuff! ❤️💜💚
This is my favorite Steve Miller Band song ♥️ I stop and dance every time I hear it!! Makes me think of the episode of Everybody Loves Raymond where they all dance to this!!
This song has such memories for my friends and I that we literally will take pictures when it comes on the radio and send it to each other I love this song
@@zorak1704 The code word is what! The code word is what? What! Exactly! Wait! The code word is what? Exactly! - Morris Day doing his best Abbott & Costello
I saw Steve Miller in Baltimore the summer of 2019, he was playing on that pier in the Inner Harbor. Didn't pay for a ticket, just watched it for free from the next pier over. He's still got it. AMAZING show.
OMG! After 10 yrs of watching TH-cam videos, today was the first time I’ve EVER logged in, and subscribed too a channel. There’s NOTHING i enjoy more than watching someone discover a love for the music, i grew up on! Thank you for being open too it all.
Memories of my senior class play... this song playing backstage... a young, pretty teacher doing my makeup... her body swaying to the music... impure thoughts... yeah.
@@danepurciful7164 I guess I may be mistaken. The two times that I saw him live, he played guitar the entire night. I'm assuming that the nickname Stevie "Guitar" Miller indicates something that he is noted for.
@@obbor4 No problem. Seen him probably a dozen or more times. I'm sure he plays it most of the time. But this one was written by another guitarist and was on the original studio recording and earlier live performances.
If you want to go further back in Steve Miller’s catalog, try LIVING IN THE U.S.A. (1968, listed as Steve Miller Band). It’s a funky, soulful, edgier rock track.
Oh wow, I'm just flooded with so many memories!!! I think it was 1998 or 99 a whole group of us ladies went on a camping trip and drove the whole way listening to the album. We finally get there, get ourselves to a picnic table after getting all our stuff out and continue listening to Steve Miller. We ended up on the table dancing to this song. Good times! Loved them live in concert too ❤️💯🎶
Fortunately got a chance to see him in 2015 after loving his music for years. He looked good for 72 and rocked the house masterfully ! Memorable songs were “Abracadabra”and “Wintertime”.
Keep the Steve Miller.... Train - A - Rollin my classic Rock-n-Roll brother ✌😎 Yes Morris Day & The Time Jungle Love Very cool & don't forget Jerome.... & his giant mirror 😎
This was one of the last songs I heard on the radio when I was shipped overseas in 77. And now that I think about it, his "Big ole Jet Airliner" was the song that was playing when I flew back in 81.
I'm from Michigan and there's no shortage of beaches here. This is one of those beach songs that brings back vivid memories! We'd spend many summer days and nights at the beach on the shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie and this song was in heavy rotation on WRIF (had to shout them out! They're celebrating 50 years on air with the same format)
Jamal , once again you bring pure joy to our hearts . Have a look at the Scottish band Del Amitri , they had a hit in the states with "roll to me " but they have gorgeous songs with beautiful lyrics , I'd recommend " be my downfall " , " driving with the brakes on " or " tell her this "
I just found your channel today and I have stayed up way too late watching your stuff. I really enjoy your take on my generation's music. (70's) Life was really simpler back then. You seem to be a great fellow. Keep it keeping on !!!!!!
@@ThePittsburghToddy Exactly, or Pat Benatar. Remember the scene in Fast Times at Ridgemont High where Phoebe Cates is showing Jennifer Jason Leigh around the cafeteria?
Love The TIme's "Jungle Love!!" Saw The Time with Lime and Grace Slick! The Steve Miller Band's "Jungle Love" is very different but they're both great tunes you can't sit still to ;-) Thanks, Jamel! Keep 'em coming!
I was 10 when this song came out. I loved it then and still do. The memories of an old song, the years, wow! The Greatest Hits is a great album. Thanks for the reaction and memories!
Hey Jamal, I had a tough day and hearing this I was up dancing!! 💃 When you said jumping down on him from the trees I nearly spit out my drink! LOL. 🇨🇦✌
The guy on the "shakers"/maracas is the late Norton Buffalo. He was with Steve's touring band for many years on harmony vocals, harmonica and percussion. Check out the instrumental "Buffalo's Serenade" with Steve and Norton trading licks on guitar and harp respectively, They used to do this as a second encore to close the show back in the day. RIP Norton Buffalo. Thank you for the part you played in The Steve Miller Band live. You sure are missed.
I was around 12 when I heard this Jungle Love and 19 when I the Morris Day and The Time song with the same name came out. I think most people around my age would be very familiar with both. The Steve Miller Band song was played on the radio a lot and the Time song was played on MTV a lot after the Purple Rain movie. I thoroughly enjoy both songs and they both are great for getting your feet moving. I think the salt shaker things you are thinking of are called maracas.

I fully concur 🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦
"Abracadabra" sux big-time.
Abracadabra is bad. lol
Alllllll of these!
Everybody sleeps on "Living In the USA" but totally check out that early Steve Miller hit too!
Jet Airliner - another excellent, high energy, song by Steve Miller.
Album version only, though!! 👍🏻
Done already
@@heidia7832 The day after it was suggested, and he did a great job of it! ;)
Though it was written by Paul Pena. I like his bluesy version better than Steve's.
Steve Miller's lyrics were like a treasure trove for the dirty mind:
"Jungle love in the surf in the pouring rain, everything's better when wet"
"Really love your peaches, wanna shake your tree."
"Swingtown", "Wild Mountain Honey", "The Stake", "In The Wintertime".
I remember Morris Day. Underrated band.
yes to "In the Wintertime" - gorgeous song
Such a fun song!
My jungle love / Oh-wee-oh-wee-oh / Think I wanna know ya / Know ya / Jungle love / Oh-wee-oh-wee-oh / Girl, I'd love to show ya / Show ya
Almost every song on the album Book of Dreams is a must listen. "In The Wintertime" is amazing!
Not a Steve Miller fan, but The Stake is a great song!
@@ChrisKrolak Book Of Dreams was a perfect album
Steve Miller had so many great songs in the 70s and into the 80s. So talented. Glad you're checking out his stuff.
Most were in the 1970s ,,

J Giles Band and The Cars
The look on your face! Priceless! Just makes night watch a happy time!
Space Cowboy , Take the Money and Run, Jet Airliner, Abracadabra and many more these are must listen
"Take the money and run" and swing town" how could I forget
Oh-we-oh-we-oh, I think I wanna know ya!
"Everything's better when wet," GOAT lyrics!
Clerks 2 opening scene We model our lives after Morris Day and the Times.
GOAT?
@@theplanetruth It's an acronym for Greatest of All Time.
The Time's song was excellent too. Heard that too many times in the 80s in clubs. We shall not speak of what happened on those nights.🤐😉
"Swingtown" should be the next one, although the Steve Miller band has many other good ones.
Jamal your headed down another great rabbit hole,im with you-all the way!
Here's a name of someone I haven't heard on your channel, Gary Wright, the song "Dream Weaver" is incredible!
One of my favs thanks for requesting this song
That and "Love Is Alive."
But, he HAS done "Dream Weaver"! And it's lovely! ❥
@@bobthebear1246 It's HERE, though! Jamal even says, "Okay, Gary ..." 😄
Dream Weaver has ALWAYS been one of my favorites till this day. :)
loving Steve Miller ..lucky enough to see him live ! on another tangent ..mothers finest - thank you for the love ... keep up the good work brother !
This and Serenade are my most favorite Steve Miller songs!
Steve Miller's “Wild Mountain Honey” is so beautiful!!!

What luck! “Jungle Love” was stuck in my head all day today!
Dance, dance, dance is a great Steve Miller song. Lots of fun!
Steve Miller’s greatest hits 💿 was and is heavy rotation for sure. Saw him live with George Thorogood, great show 🎧🔥👍
I saw Steve Miller Band with The Doobie Brothers! Excellent show!
Went to a Steve Miller concert...he knocks it out of the park...so talented, and a great showman. We had so much fun!
Back in the late 60's Steve Miller was some hard core blues.
Steve Miller: "Serenade" "The Window" and "Mercury Blues" all are very good.
His version of Mercury Blues has just such a fantastic grrove!!
Definitely my favorite “Mercury Blues”. 💜💜💜
Check out Steve Miller Band “Serenade” and “I wanna make the world turn around”! I highly recommend these two songs!
I LOVE Serenade!
Yes!!! Not enough people bring up Serenade! Same for Wild Mountain Honey.
@@tonyberezowski7859 I completely agree! Those two are 'sleepers' of his. Lol
Slinky and Maelstrom, Awesome Songs. Both instrumental though.
Love me some Steve Miller Band, I saw them in concert when I was 8 1978!
"Space Cowboy" is a must listen.
The title is Joker.

Love Morris Day and the Time. Thanks for doing this Steve Miller Band song, one of my favorites from them.
Actually just re-watched "Purple Rain" & busted out...I forgot that it wasn't just Prince's music, but also Morris Day & the Time!
Loved it!

Cruisin' the streets of Tulare and Visalia, CA back in the day when this came out.
Brings back memories for us senior citizens.
That was the studio version. Steve plays guitar on it, he's not just the singer.
Gregg Douglass co-wrote this with Steve and plays all guitars.
Sorry. Steve Miller does not play guitar on this one.

One of my favorites I'm 58 & dancing like a crazy woman in my kitchen, man music was so awesome back then.....
Ahh..take me back to the days of AM rock. ( NOTE: This is the studio version. )
Oh my first car (used) but came with factory radio with only AM. Stank because after 6-7 it'd go to static 😓
My mom had this tape and she played it everyday in the car... Great memories
Jr High and high school for me.
"Swingtown" and "Rock'n Me" are awesome songs you should definitely check out.
Do The Stake, Do The Stake, Do The Stake. Killer Stevie Guitar Miller track.

My second concert ever! Steve Miller opened by the Doobie Bros! Absolutely incredible day

Jungle love !!! Love Morris!!!
Love you, man. ..brother. Glad yo still alive. Me too.
Love this band and this is definitely one of the greats...my favorite part is the whistle at the end of course and I can do it😁
