Delighted to say the talented George is still with us - he turned 79 in October....."If it wasn't for you, there would be no me!" What a beautifully humble phrase!
Ascutado bem
This guy defies reality. I've lost about a third of what I had over the years singing in the clubs. George is as good or better than 50 years ago. A monster.
Dont sell yourself short , he wasnt doing 4hr gigs 3 times a week like us
It's A.I are you blind
@@petermacleod2402 The hell are you talking about?!
@@petermacleod2402: Don't start!! 🙄🤨
@@petermacleod2402E você acha mesmo que um cantor dessa magnitude precisa de IA??
Never heard anyone sound so good in their 70’s, he hit them high notes as well as he did when he was in his 20’s
Very true dear

I’d add Little Richard to the list
Wow, his voice is still just as pristine. Love this song…😌

Real Music. If there world is still here in 500 years time, they'll still be playing this song.
His voice is so powerful it hasn't even aged since the track was layed down in 1974!!!
Agreed. I hadn't seen this before, and was expecting age to have taken its toll, as it has (understandably) on many singers from that era, and later. Plus he's singing live - there's often a big difference between a track that's come out of the recording studio and a live version of it. So what he does here is fantastic. And well done Jools for bringing it to us.
I remember i was in barcelona spain when i heard him on the juke box great musical soul george mc crae god bless
@@matth1j When the person lives a clean life and keeps his voice in condition, then vocal longevity is realized. Also the falsetto style in which he sings is key in maintaining the range and quality of his great natural tenor voice. Check it Out! Ciao!!!
You never realize how much charisma, and stage presence, many veteran singers from classic recordings had until you actually see them perform live. Always impressive. Great vocals, and great performance. Check it Out! Ciao!!!

The voice is still on point over 40 years later
That's out of it!🔥
All these years later.....and he can still sing it in the original key.
I'm impressed all over the place.
And he looks like he's having a great time, too!
Good for him!!!
Holy shit. I'm 72 and George gotta be my age. He's from Tampa Florida . Saw him in clubs summer of 1974. Who woulda thunk he'd be doing this 45 years later. This actually gave me goose bumps..wow.
He's 76. He was born October 1944
The guy said, "George gotta be his age." I was referring to now, like he was. Not 2018. I don't think he was either. Talking about Nick, that is.
Jajajajajja share your number "sugar daddy"
Sounds like yesterday day.
He still has the voice - Tom Jones and Smokey Robinson in same category
A performer who is proud of pleasing his audience. Spectacular!!!!
You know if you're on the Jules Holland Show, you're a legend! What a great voice even 50 years on from the original hit. This song is a classic, classics never fade! His voice is still so good! Amazing 👏 🙏 ❤❤❤
Brings back fond memories of the summer of '74!!!
God, what a great time to be alive
One of the best live performances! I usually prefer the original recording but this is excellent. Glad to see he still has it!
George certainly can sing
.Sem igual !
BIG FACTS!
I totally agree with you 👍🏻
That’s the beauty of real musicians, they enhance not hide…
This brought me to tears when he gave the song to us. Such a talented artist and beautiful soul.
Did you know that Harry Wayne Casey, of KC and the Sunshine Band, wrote this song for George?! Harry mentions it in an interview.
It's great how he's interacting with his audience.
Was he singing Rock Me Baby to Jose Feliciano at 3:42?
1974 - ist das lang her - mein erstes Schuljahr - und der Song ist heute immer noch ein Hammer und absolut Zeitlos - DANKE George
His voice suit and style is like fine wine never ages
OH HELL YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

absolutely incredible !!! ... beyond brilliant, eternal & therapeutic !!!
@@brucewayne3602 I keep coming back to this song
Dude still looks and sounds good after all these years
Harry Wayne Casey of KC and the Sunshine Band did such a great job writing and producing this early disco tune
‘Without you there would be no me’
RESPECT for your audience.....George your AWESOME.
Thanks very much
I was delighted to be in the audience that night the show was recorded
For me, George stole the show that night!
Prove it
@@fontybits pppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp

So lucky man
I listened to George Mc Rae singing this song 44 years ago on the radio and he continues with the same timbre of voice. Amazing!
Me too....
I've probably watched this video about 44 times now. Just like Mr McCrae, this doesn't get old!
I have been dancing to his song since a child, it warms my heart!!
REALLY... WONDERFUL..
Agree, he´s amazing
I loved this song in the 70 he has still got it that voice
Oh my god, how good is that, a classic and what a voice he has. Loved what Jules Holland and the band did with this.
great funky version of 2018, George is 75 years old and is still rocking. Who is listening in 2020?

"Who is listening"? What kind of question is that??
To George MacRea...Rock your baby? I'll be listening when I'm dead!
this is old school showing what its all about, rock on George.
Awesome song, love it.
Continua linda essa música como sempre!🤩😘😘😍😍
*@Adian Newman* D*** straight. No one does it like original performers of 70s Soul. Esp George & Gwen McCrae. No tellin' how mant times Ive heard _Let Me Be Your Rockin' Chair,_ but I never knew that was her! ! And shes had a terrific career in Soul music too, all on her own 🤗
WOW!!! simply WOW!!! 🌞
44 years on (at the time) and both George and the song sound as good as ever.
Good on him!
Well I have to say it.... He’s definitely still got it!! 😃
Damm still hits those high notes damm that’s impressive
He still sounds great after all theses years.
Yes he does!
Sounds Same some 1974... 45. Years ago wow
Yes he does and even more sexy sensual handsome looking, just being honest.
Exatamente!
Still got that ahhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaa I know his shit is still on point
This song takes me back to my teens I’m know almost 70 yrs young and what a song back then in the day ❤
Graduated High School 1973. 1974 this song came out and really blew my mind. “Rock Your Baby”. Been Rocking since. I’m 69 now and still at.
Legend. All these new gen singers aren't even 1% of these classic artists.
I. Agree the younger generation music is 0
Beautifus j aim
😉💚❤
Definitely they try with all their might but still wont get close to legends like George,could listen to this song non stop every single day
Amazing thing was in 1974 no-one took him seriously with his one solitary hit but look at him now.. a class act... Well done George
Awesom🤩
What are you talking about?? George´s music career is much more than one hit wonder - check www.discogs.com/artist/87814-George-McCrae
This other song, for example th-cam.com/video/kBWS3BJSNtQ/w-d-xo.html
KC and the sunshine band wrote this song, and it was probably why he only had this one hit, because he was not a song writer. He is a hell of a singer though.
@@icontrolmyownguns2096 😯😉👏
So grateful and proud to have been given the opportunity to record George in my studio in 2009 ("Time for a change", re-issues of his greatest hits). Such a talented, humble and warm-hearted human being! It was a pleasure to work with him and an unreal experience hearing him sing live over the studio monitors (solo'ed) while seeing him perform behind the studio room window. All the best, George!
I just met George on Eagle Beach 🏝️ in Aruba 🇦🇼 and he sang a brief rendition of Happy Birthday to my Wife Edina! Thank you George! It was a pleasure meeting you and your lovely Wife!
Human beings are rather wonderful when we try.
given the high pitches in this popular song, i was expecting a croaked, faded and jaded voice. the guy is lucky and gifted, true
Uau!!! Perfeito
Unbeliveble 😊The swing is the same!
not from this guy
Dig it. Dig it. Dig it.
@@Tony-uq4ig nothin too it
Cruising in my 1957 Olds ,the year 1974 this song came on my A.M.radio with only one speaker in dash.Wow! Couldnt wait to hear it again!
Caramba !!! Que saudades dessa epoca que existiam artistas de verdade como Georje Maccrae com suas cançoes maravilhosas !!!
É verdade , agente era feliz e não sabia .😢
Great song to dance to, and one of my all time favorites. Good to hear George still hitting them high notes! Still loving it!💖💖💖
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore
This performance is absolute gold. Everyone is totally on point, and everyone is having a grand time. Lovely!
This guy deserved a lot more hit songs
Yay, George McCrae! Fab live performance, he's still got those great pipes! Thanks for posting.
Just. Pure. Class.
This was my grandma's favorite song. She had a really difficult life (unfortunately, her alcoholism and mental illness brought quite a lot of hardship during my mother's childhood), but as a grandmother, she was the most wonderful human alive- even with her problems. Her birthday was Valentine's Day. She passed away almost 4 years ago. For so long this song was unlistenable. It was masochistic to listen to. But now I feel nothing but joy from it. Thank you George, for making an old woman happy, and for making me see that we shouldn't concentrate on death and sadness. Life's a garden, dig it.
This song's for you, Patty.
Such a beautiful comment, thank you for sharing

Esse canto ainda é vivo sim ou não fala pra mim em português
Sharing is what it's all about...to survive yourself.
Beautiful sentiment. Those in our life who were troubled could still bring us great joy...this is a testament to them.
What a great performer!
Great sound, great voice, great performance.
What a complete showman! I love how he started off just singing, and then got everybody involved halfway through! And even Jools is looking at him in admiration! Utterly brilliant!
Wow, wow, George mcCrae still sounds perfect, a pure classy performance, absolutely brilliant.
Superb performance ! I love this melody
Its insane he can still hit those high notes.
goosebumps... chills... anyone?
yup with huge smile on my face
Same
YES
It is wonderful!! Lets dance baby
Para que te digo que no....si, sí.....
Wow,his voice has hardly changed since the 70,s what a legend.Classic songs never age.
What a showman
HE STILL GOT IT!
he had the audience in the palm of his hand
Just wow !!!
Wish we was still back in the 70s
Georgie still has the moves the voice and the fashion.
Boa ...
That's right!
Probably the best performance on the night
I couldn't agree more.
The only good performance of the night. Shockingly bad this year.
Totally correct there
Master Deepak
Absolutamente

a legend of the 70’s, what a privilege it was to be a teenager in those times ❤️
Great voice after all these years...
FANTASTIC!!!
WHAAAAAAAT!!!!!???????
this man brought the house down. What a great performance this was. Brother has still got it.
Turn back time and there is no difference! Fab!!
He's got the best stage presence, I love it
Surely everything about him, his dress and his performance is the definition of cool.
So cool, he's a breeze. Haha
Muito bon valeu
Bela bela muito bela
Wonderful, brillant. George still has a crystal voice, and great orchestra. Love this version thank you !
Best enjoyable music clip ever...so much love...
What a feeling; what a joy ...so many years ...and still fresh and ... make me feel alive ... thks 70´s and 80´s for such a lovely music
Damn.. He seems genuine and happy, grateful that people loved and still love this song, still has that smooth and soft bedroom voice, nails the vocals and he is obviously not tired of performing this song.
Super Hit, habe George persönlich kennengelernt, eine unglaubliche Story, er war in den 80-zigern ziemlich am Boden, beim Essen erzählte ich ihm, daß ich seine erste LP hatte, er glaubte das nicht. Am nächsten Abend brachte ich die LP mit, George signierte diese für meinen " Best Friend ", da war ich richtig stolz! Ein sehr netter Mensch, freundlich und ohne Allüren, sein Lächeln und seine Begeisterung für Fans waren ehrlich!
I love this song brings back good memories. I listen to it every day to relax me 😂❤
This is great. Sent me to bed with a smile on my face.
Hmmmm....well ok then!!
Nick Dowsett i f
cute
Hope you didn't go to bed alone.😉
well well one of the best live performance in a long long time
My dad was a bouncher in germany for him...im so proud
My man George still got it, those suave moves and that golden voice. Freakin love it.
Great memories of 1974...disco nights & packed dance floors.
711honved yeah the hot steamy sexy sexy seventies ❣️🙏❣️🙏😂😂😂
He still sounds fantastic!
This is what you for sure can call a evergreen..
And George performs it absolutely amazingly even after almost 50 years
Who's still watching in October 2021? George is a class act!!
Wooow! He still has an amazing voice. 🍻🍻
Say girly now in wrinkles
wooooow
Linda voz!
The epitome of absolute joy! An absolute classic that can't fail to make you want to dance
Linzi Rainbow my thoughts exactly bloody amazing performance
Yvonne Anderson MK para a
The performance made me happy!!! This was the best I've seen George and Jools Holland & His Rhythm & Blues Orchestra tied it together.
Clap fast clap foyuman
That voice has matured like fine wine!
Still sounds great George…a pure classic…rock you baby x❤
Crazy to see that his performance and the emotion in put in it at his age is way better than what we can see from most so-called "modern" singers 🤗
Still at his best after all these years
conrodmatrix precioso
We need to back in time , not only because the new music suck but also to bring our country back to what it used to, miss my old USA 🇺🇸 and the freedom of the 70s and 80s .
How are you doing today my name is Eric
HI Ralph, It’s not just about bringing your old USA back but the world. Life was not without trouble but was definitely happier for this soulful music, Growing up in the 70s was FUN!
@@oj136 okay cool
@@oj136 so where are you from
@@ericmoore5679 originally from the Uk but now Australia.
Keep the good old times coming....
What a great singer. He sounds as good as he did in '74!
All Hail The Man Who Started Disco,,Much Respect For This Song.😊
Still loving this song..
Gracias George McCrae no solo por la música sino también por lección de vida.
Un abrazo grande. Miguel. Uruguay 52 años
Quer músicas excelentes ,tem que recorrer anos 60 70 80 max 90 ,quem tbm concorda
Verdade são as melhores porque as de hoje não são boas mesmo
Concordo plenamente aff
Mas existem boas musicas nas ultimas duas décadas, o problema é que só tem mídia pro que não presta.
Eu concordo plenamente, tanto que estou ouvindo agora em2020, música e arte e uma boa arte fica pra sempre!!!
Mais de quarenta anos, mas da hora! Música boa não envelhece, é sucesso sempre.
What a wonderfull man!! And the voice got it,after all these years!
Listen to this every day...love it...
Thks Mr Jooles Holland for always playing music and reviving great music , especially tonight Mr George McCrea
Wow ,how good is he ! He is in his 70s.Just great !
