"Roll in My Sweet Baby's Arms" is an American traditional song. It seems to have developed from lyrics in the cowboy song "My Lula Gal", itself a development of bawdy British and Appalachian songs generally known as "Bang Bang Rosie" or "Bang Away Lulu.
The Flatt & Scruggs version was first released as a single by Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys, on December 14, 1951. Buck Owens released his cover version "Rollin' in My Sweet Baby's Arms" in August 1971 as the second single from his album Ruby. The song peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart . It also reached number 1 on the RPM Country Tracks chart in Canada.
Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show (shortened to Dr. Hook in 1975) was an American rock band, formed in Union City, New Jersey. They enjoyed considerable commercial success in the 1970s with hit singles including "Sylvia's Mother", "The Cover of 'Rolling Stone'" (both 1972), "Only Sixteen" (1975), "A Little Bit More" (1976), "Sharing the Night Together" (1978), "When You're in Love with a Beautiful Woman" (1979), "Better Love Next Time" (1979), and "Sexy Eyes" (1980). In addition to their own material, Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show performed songs written by the poet Shel Silverstein.
The band had eight years of regular chart hits in the United States, where their music was played on top-40, easy listening, and country music outlets, and throughout the English-speaking world including the UK, Canada and South Africa. Their music spanned several genres, mostly novelty songs and acoustic ballads in their early years, though their greatest success came with their later material, mostly consisting of disco-influenced soft rock, which the band recorded under the shortened name Dr. Hook.

These guys never got the recognition they deserved. They were true musicians, singers, entertainers, etc...
U got that right for sure
Most of their hits were written specifically for 12 yr old girls
es verdad❤
You are so very correct. They were extremely talented. Their funny songs were awesome, and their serious songs were just as good. They clearly loved performing together.
@@nathandodge665good drugs dumbass they were the most versital band ever they could do every style of music don't confuse them with Taylor swift
Can't feel bad when these fellas are playing
They weren't just great entertainers, they were professional and brilliant musicians. They could joke and mess around without missing a note. Love them
Every single one of the band could sing lead equally well,they were all great musicians but most of all they had FUN!!!.
no - they had LOADS OF FUN !!! 😜
That's what playing music is about, enjoy n have fun,n entertain
To me, it seems obvious that to act so crazy and yet sound so good musically takes tremendous talent.
You got that right!
@@carolcostello5695 ciao amico! 🙋♀️😍😘💘🍀
Well said!
Gut spielen können viele Bands, aber um so perfekt schlecht zu spielen muss man genial sein 👍👍👍
Was für eine geile Truppe❤😂
I don't think anyone could have more fun than they did!
So enjoying this today!! Whoever doesn’t enjoy this.. I don’t want to know you! 😂🎶❤️🎶
Stoned to the max, still able to remember chords and lyrics, and having fun! Everything a band should be. :D
As high as a kite and ten times as silly. I aint never seen anyone play a tamborine like that!
They did more drugs then any band back then!
@@homer1738that’s what they wanted everybody to think. You can’t do this if you are stoned. It an act.
Give this band a break! As I understand it they are Vietnam vets! Lucky to come home alive!....have some respect!xxx
Dennis locorriere can and still does
If Dr Hooks goal was to make the fans happy they sure did succeed in life and continue to do so
Great band. Very underrated. Really like their music
pure music no politics no bragging what they have no drama no complaining about how how there job is. there just a bunch of guys having fun making great pure music that doesn't get made anymore
This is one of my grandfathers songs ❤ i love they covered it
Say what you want about Dr.Hook. You can't deny that they were a one-of-a-kind band that definitely knew how to have FUN! I really REALLY miss these guys.

What do you mean, 'no pretty boys'. Dennis is gorgeous & well, Ray is lot older than Dennis, but he was not bad looking when he was younger & had no eye patch
Good old Dr Hook making another day AWESOME
Even when they were high as kites, they were superb!
Mom and I are still sitting here listening to Dr. Hook she's swaying with the music and singing, soon to turn 78 yrs. old, she raised six all of us on this music, wouldn't give it up for a million dollars!!

@@donnanash5057 thank you hope you didn't take to hard !!!
in Catholic Church there's a saints day 6 January st raymond means of sinners and prisoners. so dreading 6 January always as I found out something that day.
Dr Hook band always so fun to watch. Sadly nothing in todays time like them.
Todays music doesnt compare to much of anything
If today’s bands would have as much fun as these guys did and put on a performance like this, they might stick around longer then 3 seconds. Sure do miss Dr Hook
What a fantastic bloody group loved them since I was 18 67 now.
i wasnt even born than and i mis those times
Eh, nothing!
Love these fellers!! We will never see the likes of them again!! God bless y'all boy's!!
I don’t care if they are high or not.

I feel the same way!
SO TRUE!!!
Amen! Love Dr Hook All my adult life nearly "69yrs of Uninterrupted Love"

Very good friendo, thank you for sharing the musica of this formidable group... greetings from Monterrey N.L.MX
I was 16 years old when I first saw this and it's still fills me with joy 44 years later - thank you for posting this
Im only 32 and was fortunate enough to have parents that turned me on to good music (see above) and I'm pretty young to be saying this but younger bands need to take note...this is how you put on a show...
🥀Amazing song! Dennis is so lost on country music as I was growing up I was into Rock n Roll ect: but my Dad was lead guitarist & inducted into the Country music hall of fame and honor in 1987 singer song writer now I'd listen to country music at get together's family reunion but I was into other music. I was like an only child because I have 2 sister's that were older than me married having their own families b4 I was outta early grammar. Yep Dennis love 2 hear ya playing that harp it's priceless school🥀✌🥀☝️
Greatest band ever
Dr Hook and the Medicine Show has the perfect prescription for Happiness
Let's bring back the fun in music just like the musicians in this vid!!!
You'll never find this kind of talent. In todays music.
Can you name another band who had this much fun performing together? You can see how much they all truly liked each other. So many bands are so choreographed now that they look like robots. If you bought tickets to all the concerts of one band every concert would be identicle. Not these guys!!! It's so sad these guy will never be together on stage again. 😭 I'd like to say rest in peace Ray, but I know wherever you are you are having a blast just like you always did!!!!!!!!🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠😇
Love your Dr Hook videos Ronja!
They are GREAT!
Thank you so much!
The 166 people that disliked this must be extremely miserable at their core.
