In my opinion one of the most important yet underrated southern bands of that time, desert skies will always be a classic for me.
I agree. MTB deserves more credit for their music! Never disappoints
No doubt about it
I believe they are in the top 5 Southern rock bands of the last century, so I don''t see how they are underrated?
Incredible stuff.
I want to be buried with chaps on, and I don’t even have any.
Lived in Arizona almost all my days.Im 69 and this tune fits me to a T
I live by the lyrics of this song, I wont ever get tired of this song
Saw them last night for the second time. The crowd started hollering Desert Skies....Doug said "man, I haven't sang that in 20 years". They did it, a little slower, and little jazzier, but awesome. I took my 75 year old mom. That was just what she wanted to hear. Epic night!
@@lisaadams7809 thats awesome! they're playing hard rock here in south fl, i'm hoping I get to see them
Describes me to a T.I live in Arizona for 68 years
I was out of High School 1975 and Was Ranchin in Western Nebraska. Had 500 head cattle. My cowboy friends and I listened to Marshell Tucker Bank. Day and Night.. They were the Best in My Book Ever.. Miss All You Fellows.
That's cool, I was living in Buena Vista CO a couple of years after that working in a hard rock mine in Leadville. Tried my hand at ranching in Idaho, but it was far fewer than 500 head.
This recording is a diamond in the rough. Come back to it every week.
My dear brother M beans here I completely agree with you 150% of the greatest bands I have ever had the pleasure to see back in the 70s they were great thank you my brother
Me too. I met Toy once, after Tommy died. I simply love this song, reminds me of my lost loved ones
I do too. I still have my ticket from this concert. So unreal to be able to relive it anytime.
No it’s a gem
I always loved this song!!!! I was there! "The simple things in life" - Kids could pay $4.50 to see Charlie Daniels, Marshall Tucker & Lynyrd Skynyrd. This show was epic; it was by all means a "Skynyrd Concert"....Flower in the air, bodies dropping here and there. I'd had the pleasure of hanging out previously with the Tucker boys - Toy, Tommy -and George. Class acts, good people. Ronnie Eckerman was my next-door neighbor - Our Mothers were beauty queens at UH. If my recollection serves me, Ed King had already left a couple of months earlier, leaving Gary and Allen to do double-duty. Charlie Daniels came out and played on Freebird to end Skynyrd's set and the show that night. Got invited to Toy's Pig Pull at his place that following year in Spartanburg. I will never forget this show - maintaining decorum, I have some memories about this show that will remain untold.......Honestly - I think this was the 2nd best part I ever attended. The best, being Austin, TX, April 7, 1975 - CDB opened, Tucker followed. Ate dinner after the show at Threadgil's. Later that morning (2am) got to hang out with Willie Nelson and Evil Knievel at the Sheraton on town lake. Burned flowers with Willie. Ronnie VZ loved Evil.....The love wasn't reciprocated. Evil wasn't there to see the band - He was on tour & we just happened to bump into him there - at 2am the whole hotel was jumping and we woke him up......Did get to see his bikes on the trailer once he calmed down. The whole experience of those 2 shows alone changed my life. Good night Tucker fans.
This song is another reason why I like living in the desert.
Lord yes ....what a incredible song from one of my all time favorite bands ... love it
Grew up about 15 miles down the road from these guys, sure do miss the 70's , may they all be playing on streets of gold
These guys are awesome I was too young to see the original lineup but I have Doug with other guys but it wasn’t the same show I have all the 70s music and early 80s after Tommy was killed unfortunately so I get to listen to their great music everyday my generation is the only ones that have music like this
Watched an entire show, ‘77 Dallas, through binoculars. Toy was amazing, no pick, all thumb. What a sound.
One of the best guitarist 🎸
A little jazzy,big band & country as only MTB can do it,love it,why the Southern Rock era was so frick'n cool.
David Swart So true they were so multi dimensional I don't know if anything like that would fly these days or not.
MARSHALL TUCKER BAND WERE AT A CONCERT IN CHARLESTON,S.C.SEVERAL YEARS AGO WITH ZAC BROWN,.ARE THERE ANY VIDEO"S OF THAT CONCERT ON ANYTHING? I WATCHED IT ON T.V.AND NEVER COULD FIND OUT IF ANY COMPANY"S HAVE COPIES.LOL THANKS

Well, I'm riden here in 2023, so I can listen to the wind blow and the sand over my trail, so I can watch the moon a hiden' in the Arizona sky............. Never will be replaced Toy Caldwell
It's amazing, Toy Caldwell plays that lead guitar with his thumb!!!
Best Southern Rock band ever
Yes
MTB with one of their many great classics! Lovin me some MTB.. Toy Caldwell
Toy has always been one of my fav guitarists. Saw them in 1974 at the Capitol Theatre in NJ with Charlie Daniels opening. Charlie joined for 24 hrs at a time…one of the top 1 or 2 concerts I ever saw!
I was there for this great performance. fantastic!!!
The Ol Desert Sky Beautiful the Song Thank you Southern Boys Love it 🖤💙
Such a soothing song.
Una de las mejores bandas de siempre.
What a voice! What a band!
Did I just go on a musical trip? Yes, Yes, YES!
The picture on this song made me say to myself, now that's the real Toy .... What a experience for me... 👍🎶❤️
I want this to be the song for my unfuneral, burn me and let the sand blow with me in me in the wind
I told my missus this a couple of years ago.
This was one of my other halfs wishes, that's what we did, at his favorite fishing place
@@Care960 Awww.😢
@@roberttippett3733 Thank you, it's been 13 years since he's been gone. I was 16 he was 21 in the US MARINES on his way to Vietnam when we met. He came back and actually tracked me down after 2 years, from one town to the next.
Hard to explain. Thank you
Then Toy being in Vietnam and their songs, MTB was our favorite.
Damn those boys had some gorgeous hats I got a find me one of those man what a great band we love them so much Marshall Tucker was brilliant and we do miss THEM , here in Costa Mesa California thank you guys so much for this upload we love you
The pedal steel guitar work on the album made me buy this record way back in the 70's. I was hoping it would be heard in this live version.
Great performance!! That sax solo is amazing!!! A big fan from argentina!
Love them, got to see them live in early 2000’s, they still this good
One of my favs saw them in the 70s in Utica NY
Way ahead of their time.
Only one blackeye for me, 3rd time I saw them in 1978 at the Lansing Michigan Civic Center. They played 3 songs and stopped the show. Said the flu had struck the band. They said they would come back, never did, and never got refunded. But I still loved them anyway.

What a cool song..I mean coooll. I had a friend that was was working as a stage hand. He had a backstage pass and asked if I would like it.... a YEAH. I always loved Marshell Tucker so off I went. Hanging out backstage, talking to the roadies, smokin' up, drinkin' up. One of the roadies fires up a joint and passes it to me and we start talking , about music and just shootin the breeze. Suddenly the lights go up and the roadie sais " Oh shit I gotta go ". He then runs onstage and grabs the mic. I said to myself...why did the roadie just do that...then it hit me I was talkin to Doug Gray the lead singer for the band. I almost pooped my 18-19 year old self. I was smokin a joint and coolin' out with fame and I didn't even know it... I think Doug preferred it that way. I can't begin to describe how sublime that moment was.
Once again, can whomever posted this please change the date? Tommy Caldwell (Died April28, 1980) is not on bass, it's Franklin Wilkie. So...hello...
your right my friend! but those vids with Toy and Tommy are priceless! seen them many times together at the warehouse in NOLA
I noticed that too.
Desert skies just is a song of a summer breeze in the howling wind
Sacramento Memorial Auditorium with my pal Taffy. Magic.
F#m7 slide to E. Genius.
E slide to Am7. Genius.
A to E to G#7 to B7 to E. Perfection.
Pacing, tempo, compact impact.
Thank you, gentlemen. You did good.
any chance you know what he's doing in the solo / the part where the sax and the guitar harmonize? it sounds a bit like dorian but can't quite tell.
miss you guys! toy you was da man!
DAMN that sounds good!!!
This Old Cowboy was one of my favorite song by MTB
for my boys and you thank you
love this song- relaxing
just doesn't get any better
Great song
This may be the only live version of this song with that lineup I have heard.
These guys were as good as the Eagles
Good analogy... They were at least as good as The Eagles!
The Eagles wished they were as good as MTB!
Paulvon128 The Eagles were a pale imitation of what MTB presented.
Amen to that! Totally agree!
better than the Eagles
This is a great song, but the studio recorded version is so much better. I can't seem to find it. Can anybody out there up load it. It is so much better!
Charles Sparks look up Ltrainxpress...
All time classic
Point me to the west to watch the sunset and a few saguaros to keep me company.Ill be happy!
Well, this isn't 1975 considering this wasn't released until 77 on Carolina Dreams
They were playing and recording Carolina Dreams at this time.
it is a little Jazzie for country music...but wtf...i like it
jazzabilly
That's what Southern rock is. R&B,Jazz, country,blues and rock. Gregg Allman coined the phrase Southern Rock.
SO MISSED NEVER FORGOTTEN 😢✌💙
Damn they were so smooth and have loved their music since the first time I heard em way back. Man, Toy was such an amazing guitarist and is one of my all time favorites. As far as greats, l respect the talents of Clapton, Hendrix Page and Blackmore etc, but my choice for top axmen are Caldwell & Paul Kossof of the band Free. I know everyone always picks the usual lineup and not many even know about Paul and Toy. Let alone choose them for top guitarist lists, but between them there isn't anyone that could outperform them and were the two greatest as far as I'm concerned. Sadly, they are both gone and really sucks that we will never be able to see them damnit
I havent listened to much Free but i can definitely agree with you on Toy. Hes top favorite for me
TOUCHE..this music is just so FABULOUS..R.I.P.the beautiful souls of M.T.B.
Nice vid but it's not 1975, where's Tommy hiding? plus Desert Sky came out on Carolina Dreams in 1977.
The WEST! The COWBOY and the DESERT! By the MTB, WESTERN ROCK gets no better, get bk to New Mexico!
Kirk Kimball-Martinez lea county
this is after Tommy? Wilkie on bass? Not 1975. More like 1980ish
Your right Tommy was killed in 1980...right
Tommy was a sweetheart. I loved the way he'd look at Toy with such love/admiration for big brother and smiles. Their youngest brother dies in an auto accident and a few weeks later Tommy does too. Toy never the same.
@@debrawardlaw4558 thanks for those memories. I was too young to have seen the original MTB. I have always wondered how that must’ve tore the Caldwell and Tucker families apart. So sad
My favorite MTB song
OMG Brilliant!!!,! ManyThanx Damn I Love Toys Hat!,,,,,! So VeryCOOL,,!,!,!? ManyThanx From Costa Mesa Ca!!!,!,
Gawd, I was so young, heard this song, was incredibly hung-over, from a night of being young, this song playing on quiet radio in bathroom. Made me smile, an hunker even harder into my bed... headache an all, fu-- never forgot it. Numbskull, married my x, cause she had this album. Still best good feeling song I ever heard, thank you, MTB made my younger years more palatable. Thanks Brucey B👍😃😃
@@brucebutler4161Right On Bruce B. Sir!🤪😆👍👍🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
He’ll Ya Boys!! Been There Done THAT ALL!!😜👍👍👍👍👍🤪😆
Sky my shine
Mighty fine 👍
Toys style is so fascinating
AIR PLANES ARE TOUGH ON MUSICIANS!
Can't be '75,Toy wasn't playing his gibson,plus George and the rest of the band were fairly hirsuit by '77 at least
Rob Haunui Carolina dreams came out in 1977
Not 1975. Where's Tommy? Looks like Franklin on bass. Tommy always was next to Toy. George next to Tommy. So this must be after 1980. Still a great vid of a great song. RIP Toy. Tommy and George and piano tuner Marshall Tucker who made it to 90!
It is Franklin on bass. George is standing next to Toy.
Agreed. I was on the stage with the original band at CW Post Dome on Long Island in the mid 70's When Tommy played his bass, the whole stage was shaking. After the show we helped the roadies break down the gear and drank buds from an iced garbage pail. Got to meet Paul T Riddle. Great guy. Best times!.@@debrawardlaw4558
Toy Caldwell giving it hell.
Skies !!!
we gave money to a classmate, to skip school and get tickets to this concert in Houston at catus records but he got busted leaving school
Based on
Die Live-Aufnahmen sind schlecht, berühren aber meine Seele. Die Studioaufnahmen sind dagegen langweilig
Singin' the same old cowboy song,lol
❤☘️🌈
WHOA NELLIE slow it DOWN fast tempo belies the lyrics and pacing. Must've been a big "Snowstorm" that night. Ps RVZ bullied the band on the Plane. His arrogance is why they crashed and he took Stevie G with him. Darn shame.
van mmorsn sheett as topl honey
Horrible video, ya even see it
this sucks
+BAINOT Zangcala oh go listen to Justin Beiber and use the ladies room
SUCH dis"respect FOR the best band every SOUTHERN GUYS AND GALS LOVE.
RUDE AND HAVE A MOUSHO GREAT DAY. KEMO SABIE.
