Clarification, I read this comment while watching the video. Of course, "It's your friend Joe LoTruglio" at the end would have been somewhat of a giveaway...
For the love of the entertainment. Silly, goofy video, but with complete reverence for the music itself. It’s not an SNL sketch, it’s a bunch of talented folks being 100% themselves on camera.
I'd heard that song my entire life (43 now) and not until the last 5 years did i just fall in love with that song. Would love to see MADJband crush it. I came to the comments to request some ELO though, but it can wait.
My mom died a few years ago, and for YEARS from the 80s until her death she listened religiously to a radio station called Warm 103 out of York, PA. My sister and I still regularly text each other about hearing a “perfect Warm 103” song in the wild and being reminded of mom. This is a Top 3 all-time Warm 103 song. Perfect. Great performance. Mom would love it :)
i love that youtube delivers me MADJBAND videos as they drop..hot and fresh.....also...WTF...Lo Truglio has great pipes too?!?!?!? So The State was really just a bunch of amazingly talented musicians that are ALSO funny? wow.
@@talulatree5297 Hi @talulatree5297...im pretty sure this band was formed by David Wain who is the drummer. I think he just got a bunch of friends together and started playing music (originally released on his channel) but then they made their own channel and are getting some well deserved attention. David originally was (and remains) a member of a sketch comedy group called The State. They had a HILARIOUS sketch show on MTV in the 90s. Well worth your time to dig around youtube for sketches. The lead singer of this band is Ken Marino, also a State member. And this song features Jo LoTruglio, also a State member. (Note: all members of the State have gone on to do various awesome stuff: TV, Movies, Production, etc. Also they reunite and tour once and a while). Rock On!!
Seems like maybe this is a music video and they already recorded it in a studio which would make him sound even better. I just watched the guitar solo and ya this isn’t live.
I turned 45 today. I’ve heard this song a least a hundred times on the radio growing up in the 80s/90s, but I never actually felt the lyrics until now. Something about this version has been really speaking to me, and I now relate to these lyrics so much. Thanks for making this. It’s great.
I’m always amazed at how talented many actors are. Had no idea Joe Lo Truglio sang at all, but his voice is beautiful. Same with Ken Marino. Well done and keep the hits coming!
Not withstanding the clowning around, that was absolutely STUNNING, thats one of my all time favorite songs, this is a thing of absolute F*CKING beautiful brilliance ,the harmonizing was unbelievable, it gave me butterfly in my stomach.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm weird as well, I bingewatched all their songs last night. They were so darn happy and creative, and get this, I've been sober this my first year, I never thought I would start singing and " really" get into music again. Yes, I know, weird, but I was acting like I was at a concert!😂 the energy they sparked was amazing!
I love it when folks from The State find the time to work together after all these years. You guys have been making me smile for damn near all my life. Well done.
"Tell Me Somethin' Good" "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" "Southern Nights" "Damn This Traffic Jam" "Black Water" "Rubberband Man" "Still the One" "Black Coffee in Bed" "Blister in the Sun" "Add It Up" "Too Shy" "Jesus Loves Me But He Can't Stand You" (Austin Lounge Lizards) Y'all rock so hard. Much love. ❤
I've been enjoying your videos so much. I found these literally hours after my Dad died. He would have absolutely loved your stuff. Every time I catch another of your videos I'm reminded of my shared love of music with my Dad.
You had me fooled. I really did think it was the late, great Gerry Rafferty. Though the lack of a beard did have me a little concerned. Great job Joe, the late, great, Gerry Rafferty, would be so proud of you. Great work on the sax, young man. Fun fact. Here in Toronto, Gerry's album, City to City, knocked Saturday Night Fever, out of the top spot. Thus, insuring that rock and roll, would indeed, live on. Thanks guys. Awesome work.
Don't be silly. I knew for a fact that it was not Gerry Rafferty. It's said a person does not really die so long as you remember and speak their name. Gerry was a very talented songwriter and performer who hit some soul--destroying bad luck. Contractual legalities concerning his former band Stealers Wheel disrupted his musical career, alcohol compromised his physical and emotional health, and he died of alcohol--related causes alone in a UK hospital in 2011. I always loved this song; the words and delivery were affecting; the sax took me over anytime I heard it. Best song he ever created, one that wasn't appreciated in its day. But I always get lost in it. Hearing it makes him lived and celebrated. It brings his name forward and he lives again. A tragic life, but now he has immortality. Thank you guys for bringing him back to us. You did him proud.
It’s always the saxophone in this one that keeps me listening to this song. The intro is sort of meh for me, but that sax kicks in, and I’m like “okay, one more listen”. Well done, and great playing by all, Joe’s got some great pipes.
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate the drummers t shirt. It's not often I see a Cleveland Clothing company t shirt in the wild. Great company, kind of miss working for them.
This is one of the very first songs I remember remembering. I'm sitting in the backseat of a Camaro, my feet hovering well above the floorboard, peeking out the window the best I can to see the Mojave Desert flying by.
I love Gerry Rafferty and can't get enough of his music. What a fantastic cover! Feel free to do his whole catalog. And what a wonderful vocalist! Way to go, Joe! (I didn't realize he could sing...) What a great start to the day. Rafferty, Joe, and another cup o' joe. Thanks!
Incredible. It's wild enough that Wain can play drums and Marino has a golden voice, but now LoTruglio can sing too?! Absolutely amazing. Also, I love that these great songs are also turning into The State bits. Thanks for never stopping, guys. For 30 years I've checked out everything each of you have done solely because your names were on the prohect and have never been disappointed. Keep going.
As much as it made me laugh I fully recognize the talent it takes to pull it off. Nice job ! And seriously kudos to the younger musicians in the group. Everyone is fully onboard ! 😁👍
Oh, if only I lived next door to Gerry Rafferty! He’s been a musical hero of mine for ages. Feel free to cover any of his work, any time, I won’t complain. So sad that he was taken from us way too soon.
I worked on a David Wain movie.. One day we were at a location with a piano and he busted out some classical tunes like it was nothing. All the great comedic talents seem to have musical ability. He was a really nice guy.
Ok, so all the way through the song I was thinking I would look up Gerry Rafferty to see what he looks like. Glad you guys saved me the job. *Edit. Rafferty died in 2011. I guess I should have known that.
Request for “Taking It To The Streets”, and I think it’s time to get the sax player a tenor sax. His Alto sounds great, but they lack the depth that a Tenor provides (alto is much smaller - less air =thinner tone) I think he’ll love the added oomph of the tenor !
Gerry Rafferty’s “Baker Street” is such an amazing tune, and it still is one of my favorites. Released in 1978, I was in High School when it first was released. I have such fond memories of this song. It was so great to hear it covered and staying faithful to the original. Middle Aged Dad Jam Band, I look forward to more great music…
Don Henley would have it deleted the minute it drops. The Eagles don’t like covers or any other use of their material. I’m a drummer and it’s nearly impossible to find drumless Eagles tracks to play along to.
This one got me abit emotional. Excellent spot on vocal and I love the harmonies. I was 20 years old when this came out and now I'm 66. This tune brought me back to those real special times from the summer of 78. I just started studying at the American Conservatory and started playing out a year later...
MADJ Band? What a breath of fresh air on TH-cam! Humour and talent galore - keep ‘em coming, guys. ps : ‘Baker Street’ used to accompany me on my way to university, so thank you for that.
Who else is here in 2024 just because they're an American from Cleveland Heights living in a smallish town in southeastern Germany wondering what kind of life choices led them here? Anyone?
@@JasonHall-v3h Yes. I know David is from Shaker Heights. I'm one of those comedy nerds and Cleveland people always recognize Cleveland people out in the world. We need to stick together!
I can't tell how much this channel has made me smile. Thank for entertaining since the 90's. I am Genx through and through and this is astounding! Please don't stop performing. On my worst day I can listen to this or Italian restaurant( which is better than the original, yeah I said it, lol) Thank you again and keep doing what you do.. all my best always. Stay cool everyone.
I’m soooooo glad you guys are turning out fresh content. I know it’s been stated elsewhere, but you guys are having a blast and it totally shows through your videos. Keep them coming!! Tour schedule please!!!!

I request that you pin this comment. Not this reply. The comment to which... You get it.
I love seeing Joe Lo Truglio, he has such talent not just in comedy, but also in his wonderful vocals too!
He is fantastic.
Thank you! I was staring at him thinking he looked so familiar!
Clarification, I read this comment while watching the video. Of course, "It's your friend Joe LoTruglio" at the end would have been somewhat of a giveaway...
He's excellent, great to see him here.
Same!!!!
Everybody loves the sax in this song with good reason, but can we get some respect for the guitar solo? Yall nailed that shit.
This is so not fair. I see some non-dads. Totally a non-dad playing that sax. I can’t believe the betrayal I’m literally shaking right now jk
Hey, at least this one is actually in tune 😂
It's so refreshing watching talented people have fun together on TH-cam without all the fake youtube personality bull... Just real entertainment.
For the love of the entertainment. Silly, goofy video, but with complete reverence for the music itself. It’s not an SNL sketch, it’s a bunch of talented folks being 100% themselves on camera.
Rafferty should be in the Hall of Fame for just this song! It's been in my life forever.
"Just follow me for the changes" - I'm going with Back To The Future reference 😁
According to Bruce Springsteen, that's the Chuck Berry process...

Do it! Your bro-in-law already has the guitar part down
Didn't expect JoLo to have the voice of an angel.
Seems like maybe this is a music video and they already recorded it in a studio which would make him sound even better. I just watched the guitar solo and ya this isn’t live.
It's definitely his voice, though.
@@Rensune for sure his voice! Dudes a legend in my book even without this awesome cover!
He sings as good as his cousin Susan!
Definitely not a main show of his talent, but his spot in Pitch Perfect 2 was pretty good 😂
I'm 60 and a guitar player, and I 100% approve of this old dad stuff.
This has no business being this good
I audibly gasped when Joe Lo Truglio started singing.
Anyone here from USA?
Midnight in Japan.
Come to the East Coast!!
Seems statistically likely.

Im from Earth

As surprised as I was at how great a singer Ken was finding out Joe can sing too just blows my mind. Amazing job people!!
Yeah this literally made me scream holy shit
As a middle aged jam dad from Australia, I massively approve. Great job!
I’m always amazed at how talented many actors are. Had no idea Joe Lo Truglio sang at all, but his voice is beautiful. Same with Ken Marino. Well done and keep the hits coming!

Today's generation will never know what great music we had.
They will now
They know.
I remember when Baker Street when it hit the air in the 70’s and I’ve loved it ever since!!! So great to see the kids rockin it!!!!
Call me weird but I just enjoy watching all types of people get together to have a spark together to create something fun and beautiful.
I'm weird as well, I bingewatched all their songs last night.

Vote for Jess to do a guest lead on a song.
Mmmmmm Jess
Yes! It's very cool to see her up there. She is a super-talented performer
100% need this. I saw Joe on my first watch, then on the second I noticed Jess and was shocked again!
Joe is absolutely NAILING that restrained but steady-as-a-rock unique tone of Rafferty’s 🤘
I love it when folks from The State find the time to work together after all these years. You guys have been making me smile for damn near all my life. Well done.

Gerry Rafferty is one of the greatest in the music business and you guys did an incredible job
Thank you for being one of only two TH-cam😅 channels that never fail to make me feel better after watching.
