SOBs in New York City 2006

[@gypsiqueen4446]

One of my all time favorite bands!!! So incredibly talented and highly under-rated!! Always loved this song soooo!! R.I.P Lou Wilson...

[@TheJackieo2006]

I love this song, even as it makes me sad. It reminds me of my Dad who left us on December 21, 1995. Miss him still.

[@ethelstevenslove2957]

Its a great song that's timeless.......

[@dsekou]

Absolutely Beautiful song

[@carouselred8994]

I was at this show. I remember they jammed Funky Monkey during rehearsal - sound check!
I met Lou RIP, confusing him for Wolf. He was gracious and kind. One of the greatest bands.

[@rickjohnson8707]

That song puts a tear in my eyes every time I hear it! I'm 61 and I had the original album! They still sound just as good today as they did in the 70's !!!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RIC WILSON OF MANDRILL (NOVEMBER 5, 2019)

[@msraye100]

It's going back to the basic's. you start out with a house of wood, and when you die you go back to wood after going over all the other elements.

[@cesarmora8763]

so sweet

[@ethelstevenslove2957]

Yes, I agree.... Didn't know that they're still performing around the States. That's great! This song is also a great love song that timeless........I came here to see the footage on this great band "Mandrill".....

A House of Wood is weaker than a house of stone.
Which one do you think you should build your relationships on?

[@peachykeen692165]

Can't agree with that PF149 they are neck and neck. The Elements Vs Mandril wooooooooooooo, I don't know

[@reinaldogreen2079]

DID NOT KNOW THEY WERE STILL PERFORMING. ARE THESE THE ORIGINAL MADNRILL. FOOTAGE IS KIND OF POOR.

[@gypsiqueen4446]

Reinaldo Green Yes, looks like most of them are...The three older men on Background vocals are the Wilson Brothers Carlos, Ric and Lou...sadly Lou passed away a few years ago. Not sure who is singing lead but he sure sounds like Lou...I'm inclined to believe it must be his son.

[@mariomulato]

Carlos Wilson is singing here, as he did in the original recording. His vocals are unique.

[@gregorymyster4967]

Reinaldo Green yes

[@jimy0803]

GypsiQueen The 3 on background vocals are Ric; Lou; and Wolf Wilson.

[@ray69allday]

This Jam right here...High school Fairfax Co. Herdon ...Karen White the one who got away...)-;

I do not understand the meaning of this song.

[@lindarogers8682]

+James Burns A Grandfather story of how he build his family and the struggle of death though his generations. The box of wood is his casket. like RIP Grandpa no more struggle.
