      Agree 100%. I think the videos distract from the song analysis...unless of course it's a good live version. Unfortunately the 80's music turned a lot of people off at first because the videos were so horrible. It took me 20 years to finally realize the music was actually really good.

    • @desertdee1

    "Spinning Wheel" is also a must listen from this group. "You've Made Me" is a cover (the definitive version in my view), but "Spinning" is an original and a big hit. Something else in this feel is "Vehicle" by Ides of March (another big hit in the day).

    • @nastynick8709
      @nastynick8709 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    • @tarheel7406
      @tarheel7406 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@nastynick8709 As no can read every recommended book, watch every recommended movie, I try to be judicious with my recommendations to music reactors. "Spinning", "You've Made", and "Vehicle" are all iconic songs from that time and sub-genre (heavy brass arrangements). If the reactors want to go deeper, I will then add some deeper cuts and personal favorites.
      Sometimes I don't even like some iconic songs personally but will still recommend.

    I'm sorry Corey but, when I saw you bopping to the music the first thought in my mind was Ray Charles. 😊And When I Die, and Spinning Wheel are definitely worth listening to. My mom liked this group, which confused me as a kid because she was old, she was in her forties. David Clayton Thomas was the singer, on this song for sure, for the most part. He had a solo career as well. BTW, my mom adored him. I seem to recall seeing him perform on The Flip Wilson Show.

    What a fun reaction. Al Kooper was a founding singer member, but David Clayton Thomas was the singer here and for all of their hits. I saw them in 1970 in Sacramento, CA and they were such a professional band. It was a fun time since BS&T and Chicago were hitting the music scene around the same time playing jazz influenced rock music. There's is certainly more from this album to enjoy as well. Thanks for the great reaction.

    @zanohoriamazo1 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    That sound is mos definitely David Clayton Thomas, THAT I recall as a kid. Good music instinct mentioning ‘switch up’s’, cause that was kinda complex wit key changes, & mood changes. When lead vocal David comes in on the beginning, he’s singing so soft, but he was a gritty singer as you hear. Tom Jones was a good likeness, I would add the late Janis Joplin. It was that white soulful rock sound. BS&T fueled that fire trend of bands wit horn sections, along with Earth Wind & Fire, Chicago & Kool & the Gang. The late Lew Soloff was one legendary trumpeter who was a strong jazz player but also became an in demand studio player which is where he made his main living. He has a piccolo trumpet part in another BS&T hit, Pinning Wheel, which is probably their funkiest joint of their catalogue. Oh, ‘And When I Die’ is an epic piece of work that sounds like it belong in a musical. Actually it reminds me of something Pac might pick from. Cool reaction!

    If nobody else mentioned it yet.... BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS is a phrase famously used by heads of state, most famously Winston Churchill during WWII. Although, Teddy Roosevelt had already spoken to the US armed forces 40 years earlier, saying:
    "Every man among us is more fit to meet the duties and responsibilities of citizenship because of the perils over which, in the past, the nation has triumphed; because of the blood and sweat and tears, the labor and the anguish, through which, in the days that have gone, our forefathers moved on to triumph."
    Anyway, AND WHEN I DIE is a superb song with awesome lyrics that you guys need to check.
