- The "ORIGINAL" MOLLY HATCHET Band - FULL CONCERT - CAPITOL THEATRE ... Passaic, NJ 11/10/78 ... Featuring: Lead Singer, DANNY JOE BROWN; Lead Guitarist, DAVE HLUBEK; Lead Guitarist, DUANE ROLAND; Lead Guitarist, STEVE HOLLAND; Bass Guitarist, BANNER THOMAS & Drummer, BRUCE CRUMP. The Band Performs Their Songs ... 1) Bounty Hunter; 2) Gator Country; 3) The Big Apple; 4) Dreams I'll Never See; 5) Trust Your Old Friend; 6) The Harp Jam
** So, Apparently There Has Been Some Confusion About The Song "LONG TALL SALLY" Missing From My Post. Just To Straighten Some People Out, The Song That Is Played In The LAST Spot In This Show Is Actually Called "THE HARP JAM" NOT "LONG TALL SALLY" They NEVER Played LONG TALL SALLY At This Show!! I Don't Understand Why The Confusion, But If You Listen To "THE HARP JAM" Recorded On Any LIVE MOLLY HATCHET Album It's On, You Will See This Song Is "THE HARP JAM" A 12:30+ Minute Jam That Features Leads From The Guys And An Introduction Of The Band From DANNY JOE BROWN ... The Band Did Record A Song Called "LONG TALL SALLY", Which Was A LITTLE RICHARD Cover Tune, On The 1981 TAKE NO PRISONERS Album With JIMMY FARRAR On Vocals. DANNY NEVER SANG "LONG TALL SALLY" ... SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION!! - เพลง
Thank the lord that I lived during this magical musical period.
Baby brother's favorite and I know now why Rest in peace Barry 💕 you are truly missed
When Grass Roots ruled
@@CapstoneTider
How?
Absolutely 💯
@@CapstoneTider grass roots indeed , rock on 🤘 brother
This band deserves to be in the rock and roll hall of fame
For sure.
Absofuckinlutely! I burned through 3 cassette tapes of Flirtin' with Disaster. Rewinding and rewinding to hear the song one more time.
UFO Nazareth Uncle Ted and Uriah Heap are on my list. My list was deep purple and yes but they are in. When I ask people in real life who should be in getting 50% Iron Maiden from the rockers-- some push back on Nazareth and not enough people have heard of Uriah Heap but SHOULD be in..
Hardly. The Rock and roll Hall of Fame is a joke anyways
@@mikemiller6628 They are in mine.
Molly Hatchet, Black Oak Arkansas, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Allman Brothers, Outlaws, Blackfoot, Charlie Daniels band...can't beat this great kind of music!
Ya mules thoze thims ARE the R&R ock and R&R oll hhaall . *
and .38 Special.
Don't forget 38 special
Mountain Mars
Halltucker
And Marshall Tucker.
I miss the 70's. I don't want to be here anymore. Can't watch TV, can't listen to the radio, men wear dresses to the Award shows. Please take me back to 1974.
Amen and Amen
I feel ya ❤
I’m from the 80s but I’ll go with ya
Let’s make it 77 so we can catch Smokey and the Bandit
Times change.... remember your parents whining about all us kids in the 70's and 80's? Same shit
Molly Hatchet should be in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame.
You mean the shock and joke hall of fame? Why would ANY Band worth their salt, like Molly Hatchet, wanna be in a "Hall" like that? A bunch of them ain't nothin' but a bunch of people that never even belonged there in the first place!
If there was a Hard Rock/Heavy Metal Hall of Fame, then I'd say yes, put 'em in! Otherwise, I don't want to see one of the quality bands that I did some of my growin' up on, placed in some "Hall" with some of the biggest fakes that I've ever seen in my life! Molly Hatchet don't deserve that kind of bad treatment!
Sir, What Molly Hatchet deserves is a shot at a beer commercial hall of Fame. Saw them front blue oyster cult back in the day, and Triumph. Saw them slide down back into the clubs. I gigged drums for years and was in a band that fronted them in 1995. Crump and Roland were great guys. Hlubek was a blow asshole. Didn't see them as anything but burnouts.
Should mention. Our sound guy handed a tape of our stuff to this Danny brown guy back stage. Asked him to give it a listen. Brown spat on it and there it against the wall. I have the fondest memories of the assholes called Molly Hatchet. Thank God that life is behind me.
@@ronaldshank7589 All of that complaining you just did is the exact reason people are saying bands like Molly Hatchet "should" be in the Hall of Fame. There's a ton of bands we can all agree "should" be in the HOF and many more we can agree "shouldn't" be in there.
@@JSchaffer214 I'm the kind of MAN that says what he wants to say. Got a problem with it?
Tough!
I’m 62 years old. I’m a drummer and singer. Molly Hatchet was the most underrated Southern Rock band. Their music is pure gold. I love this stuff. Man do I miss the good Rock n Roll!
Got more than one request from the management to "turn it down".....:)
This show here is amazing.2 of the first albums I listened were MTB "Searchin For A Rainbow" and ABB "Live at Filmore East". Skynyrd wasd next-this right here was as good as any southern band back then.
I was at this Capitol Theater show in Passaic NJ at age 16... They opened for the Outlaws, who kicked ass that night too!! I still diggit at 62 years old and always will! Fuckin A!!
Wow that's an Amazing show. What do you think about Whiskey Myers and Preacher Stone both are badass.
I'm 72 & still rock and roll
Hahaha!
Love that u said fuckin' A
I could absolutely hear it 😊
They were part of my very 1st rock concert (listened to a lot of soul) @ 17. LOVED it!!
Molly Hatchet, Black Sabbath, and Blue Oyster Cult - and, it was outside. So, even better...
FanTAStic!!!
Molly Hatchet is the one of the best 70's southern rock band, Bobby Joe Brown is awesome, oh hell YES good Music
@@reneclark6447 Danny Joe Brown.
👍🏻
🇺🇸
You got that fuckin right 👍
32:36 for a legendary drum solo by my dad
Your Dad was the Molly Hatchet drummer? Pretty cool! This original lineup was the best! The first two records are legendary!!
@@jedsteelwell2354 yes my dad was the original drummer!!
@@kylecrump7247 I was fortunate to be able to see your Dad with Hatchet early and then when he came back to the band. What an incredible live band they were.
@@bluesrocker79 amazing that u got to see my dad play live. what an amazing drummer if u remember right? dude just watch this whole video again and pay attention to my dad on the drums man he just too good
@@kylecrump7247 Amazing drummer indeed! I was fortunate to see Molly Hatchet live six times,all with your Dad on drums. They were an amazing live band. And so very loud! lol
Danny Joe Brown had one of the most instantly recognizable voices in rock music. And those talented musicians he had backing him up. What a shame that they're all gone...
Yep. Not only are they all gone but nearly all of their original replacements are gone as well. This band has such a tragic story. 😢
This band, and especially this lineup, were a godsend. Nothing better than 70's rock! And Molly Hatchet added their own unique sound to the landscape of the day.
Class of '75 Love it!!!
82 I think? Smoked a lot of ganja
Seen them in '79
Thank you Lord for letting me live during these days of Rock n Roll..3 Gibsons rippin..If we could only go back for day..We had no idea how much would change.I hope someone in 20yrs reads these comments and enjoys these Videos..If u are you have no idea how good these times were.Keg partys live bands n people just having fun.God Bless you if your watching this..
Reminds me of high school!!! I still listen to this stuff today 👍 I think everybody needs a southern rock playlist 👍👍👍🗽🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I will forever remember driving down the PCH in the midst 70s as a kid listening to kick ass radio stations. Hippie/sound engineer step dad smoking big fat doobie. Good shit
@@mwfmtnman 😅 still smokin'
And we all grew up fine as frog hsir.
Same❤❤❤❤
Absolutely
Agreed
It's hard to imagine that everyone of these rockers have now passed, I was lucky to have them with this original line up !!
So did I in Norfolk va.awesome show Blackfoot outlaws n the greatest MOLLY HATCHET
My very first concert 1980
@@giovannizingone443 I loved the "Main Events" at Frank D. Lawrence Stadium in P-town. "Rockin' in the Woods" at Surry Harley Track, & seemed like they were at the Boathouse monthly, for a while there. I didn't realize Steve had also passed away. He supposedly went to HS here i VA Beach, but he was the only original who had nothing of his personal life on the internet, until I looked him up just now, and read of his unfortunate illness. This only makes my 60th b-day today, just a dit harder to deal with. That's why I'm all for survivors of great groups burying their personal beefs to perform together for their fans, before it's too late. Most of their quarrels are childish. Only rarely do former mates have legitimate conflicts, worthy of denying their fans reunion performances.
lucky enough to say that drummer right there the original, is my dad. passed away 2015
@Porter Makai You're right, No one cares!
I was in a local band and we opened for Molly Hatchet i believe Danny Joe Brown was the only original member and this wasn't to long before Danny Passed, Danny asked us what bands did we cover and we said mostly all southern Rock he asked us did we do any of their stuff and we said not at this gig because they were there and he said hell you should play our stuff its good to hear other bands doing pur stuff and made us feel.like we were equal to them i dont think i ever met a nicer guy that Danny Joe Brown, R.I.P. my brother.
That's an awesome story brother! DJB! RIP!
He passed away in Davie Florida where I raised my kids from 1980 to 1997. I saw him at Toledo Speedway Jam #1 in 1979 before moving to S. Florida. Danny joe brown
Toledo speedway jam concert in 1979 lineup
I've seen them in memphis tein 79 They were an awesome band still got the T-shirt a matter of fact they were part of my growing up.
Well, that was very respectful of you guys saying your not doing their tunes that night
tht be reallt stange if you backed them up and then played thir tunes lol
I saw these guys 4 times, what a gift. Don't compare them to Skynyrd, let them both stand alone on their glorious merits!
Rejoice that they happened at all... each their own cool thing unto themselves
Saw them a couple times. They rocked but I remember one show in particular was eardrum shatteringly loud. :)
What years?
@@tonyajohnson7948 I saw them in 78-79-80-82 the last show was at the Palladium in Hollywood... very small place!
Eric Underwood Class of 81 Downey High school CA ✌️
The first three with the Outlaws...Ride em hard put em up wet tour! Had a bitchen shirt with two rattlesnakes through the eyes of a bull skull!
Molly hatchet is so damn underrated! Danny Joe Brown was such a great front man. Saw them with the outlaws at Marin civic 1978
I also saw them with the Outlaws and the warm up band was a new singer called “John Cougar”
Saw them with the outlaws on New Year’s Eve Lakeland Civic Center 1980 Johnnie Van Zant opening tickets 8 dollars 50 cents
I'm listening to this concert, and I'm not hearing any mistakes, either in the Drumming, the Bass Guitar, the Three Guitarists, or even the Lead Singer! This is what I call a picture-perfect concert!
Bass Guitarist:Banner Thomas.
Guitarists:Duane Roland, Steve Holland, and Dave Hlubek.
Drummer:Bruce Crump.
Lead Vocalist: Danny Joe Brown.
Outlaws were just SO great.
Bet that was an awesome show!!
Brings a tear to my eye. I grew up with these guys in Florida and saw 'em play many times. The triple guitar attack by Roland, Hlubek and Holland was the best in rock and roll and has never been surpassed. Danny was a 6'4" lumberjack of a guy and a real teddybear in person. Seeing him decline under the hammer of diabetes and other ailments was heartbreaking. Drummer Bruce Crump lived for many years in VA and worked as a drum teacher; he passed away in 2015. Hatchet toured for years after, with Hlubek as the only original member. They were not even a shadow of what they once were. Hlubek passed in 2017. Steve Holland passed in 2020; he was the last of the original lineup.
I remember meeting Dave Hlubek in '78 at a guitar store in Seattle. He was hanging behind the counter and was checking out a cheap guitar my friend bought. We were 14 at the time. He proceeded to pop all the bubble wrap the guitar came in joking about he couldn't stop. He lectured us to stay in school, get an education and stay clean. He said music was the only thing that saved him and he was lucky.
44 years later I still remember that meeting and he was absolutely right. Very cool dude.
Read my newest posted reply. You are dead on. I had the same experience with Danny Joe Brown. Real as people can be.
I met him (Dave) before a show in pennsylvania. He cane out to the fans and started signing autographs. Cool dude.
One of things that I find pretty amazing about most of the southern rock and roll bands is that they were always a bunch of local guys who were friends and created such awesome music. Most of the bands from the early 80`s and such were created by record labels. The southern guys were a small group of like minded musicians who loved the same style of music and that`s what`s made them so cohesive. Just my opinion.
I would say that pretty accurately sums it all up.
Except for Little Feat. They were a bunch of session musicians from LA,
which they became friends later.
We need this kind of music again.
Blackberry Smoke is killer
@@mikefields4136 I love Blackberry Smoke, and Whiskey Myers are great too!
Thank God we had it then 🙏 long live rock n roll ✌
th-cam.com/video/IfxMi0Bx4x0/w-d-xo.html
Drivin'n'Cryin' my favorite band since 1991 and All Them Witches, my favorite new band. Neither one of these bands anything like Molly Hatchet except for playing excellent Rock.
There will never be bands like this again how sad is that people
Absolutely agree with you
They are out there, they just don't get the deserved attention, and never really get heard as a result. Sadly, our youth is completely uninterested in actual music.
Life goes on everything Changes.
So many people we wish we didn't have to lose .It's enough to make you wanna sing the blues .
That is VERY SAD 😟
They live on in their music 😁👍
All those Gibsons 💜💜💜💜 Outstanding!
It is impossible to stay in a crap mood when listening to the "Southern rock" genre. Love me some Molly Hatchet!
Phenomenal performance
Awesome.. we didn't know how good we had it back then...
We do now and then some.
Hindsight is always 20/20👍❤️🇺🇸😊
I love these guys. Molly Harchet, Atlanta Rhythm Section, or Blackfoot dont get the Love that they deserve!!!
Oooh Blackfoot saw them in 81 and met them afterwards in their truck. What a gig! A flag, a couple of lights and some of the best guitar duelling I've ever seen... still one of the best gigs I've been to.
Now that’s truth! Right on Tim.🤘😎
Saw Blackfoot awesome.
@@Skycop51 yeah proper Blackfoot not the later version. Saw them at castle Donington and Liverpool theatre royal in 81.... awesome gig not bettered by many.
seen alanta rhythem section in western pa in 2018 with foghat, firefall, rip dave muse from firefall
Back when they still made REAL music!! Rock on!!
I saw Molly Hatchet at the Jacksonville Memorial Coliseum in Jacksonville FL right when this album was released. It was a triple bill. They opened followed by Cheap Trick who was touring to support their album Heaven Tonight and the headliner was AC/DC on their Powerage tour. Ohhh to be young again LOL! I remember it like it was yesterday.
In my younger years when music was great and you could turn on your local FM rock stations(mine were 93.3 WMMR and 94.1 WYSP...Philadelphia area)you were guaranteed to hear something great.
Back then, I assumed (and took for granted) that music would evolve or be great forever.
Man, how wrong was I...
Music today is terrible and concerts aren't anything like they used to be.
Thanks God I came up when I did and got to experience all the great music that I grew up listening to.
MMR AND YSP. Two great radio stations of the day.
Saw these guys twice, 78 and with the outlaws and with Blackfoot man do I miss the 70s!!!!!
Yeah George!! Philadelphia guy here !! This brought me right back to my youth. To those keg parties and music like this coming out my big ass radio. Burning Christmas trees down the tracks freezing cold out. Miss those days.
I think WMMR was part of Metromedia Broadcasting as was WNEW FM in my hometown of NYC. I would catch MMR while driving through the Philly area, loved Pierre Rober!
I bought Bounty Hunter on cassette when I was 16 in 1983 because of the big fuckin' death dealer on the warhorse with the battle axe and I used to paddle up and down the Madawaska river in Ontario shit-faced and blasting this on my boombox! I loved all these bands since I was a kid! Molly Hatchet, Blackfoot, Lynyrd Skynrd, Black Oak Arkansas!
Canada Rocks, Trudeau sucks.
His voice fit their music like a hand in glove.
In the years before he passed, Banner Thomas became a dear, dear friend. He played with a local bar band in his later years, despite his bona fide rock star status, he was as humble as the day is long. I miss him...
That would be BIG ENGINE! Met him then and just saw BIG ENGINE again a week ago in Lake Park, GA.
Concerts like these is turning out to be the only use for you tube.
Their cover of The Allman Brothers "Dreams" is epic! Simply amazing.
It’s actually better than the original!
For years I didn't know it was the same song!
❤❤❤❤
Inspired in Buddy Miles version
I never go too long without rolling down the road with Dreams. This Southern Man has been lovin’ some MH for years…
Love that 3-guitar lineup. One guy drops out to take a solo, and there's still a thick wall of rhythm guitars! And when all 3 of them harmonize a riff, that's the icing on the cake! A damn shame they're all gone now. What a tight band they were!
As far as I'm concerned, they're one of Southern Metal's Super-Groups!
Plenty of power was in this band. It was amazing how much power these guys put out!
.
Plus with 3 guitarists, one guy can slip backstage for a little bump and a shot!!
@@jasonlacroix6083 Yeah buddy! There was a lot of that going around back in those days. I used to see the drummer for YES go down the rabbit hole and come back up sniffing and ready to go...lol Remember the round turning stage?
@@JoseMTamez oh yeah! In the Round. Best stage in the business. Metallic does it well. They turn almost the whole floor into a stage. And then they burn down the fucking house!!
Bounty Hunter
Gator Country 🐊
The Big Apple 10:00
Dreams I'll Never See 13:15
Trust Your Old Friend 20:31
The Harp Jam 24:47
You don't have to pioneer a new sound to be a great band...I've always loved Molly Hatchet and that's that!
Rythum Rock, at its best!!! 65 and still love it!! Gater country!!😊😊
RIP - every member is gone now- thank you good Lord for the time they were here to give creative joy in Joy in Your Name! Amen
We will never be able to enjoy this much Music with this much understanding and pleasure. Damn I miss when things were simple like This.
i am crying my eyes out1 i saw them twice, both outdoor concerts. thank you randy! I didnt know they all were gone. I loved them s o much!! Always will!!!!
All the original members have passed plus second singer Jimmy Farrar and second bass player Riff West.
I feel the same way Helen.😀😀I saw them many times.
The last time I saw them here in the Atlanta area I was hanging out at the back door of the club .Some other dudes were there also .DJB came out "Hey what are you guys doing out here don't ya know it's raining"(not hard but we were getting wet)😀
So I got to have a conversation with DJB .What a nice man.
So was Riff West😀we talked a lot he was really nice😀😀
I'll always love them . 😀😀
So good to see this quality of concert video of these guys. Helps to keep good memories from my youth. Class of 78.
Class of '84. They rocked the house in Choo Choo Chattanooga,Tn. in 1979 too. Many dreams that none of us are ever gonna see, you know!!!
Class of 81 easily the best concert i ever seen. Flirtin with disaster was the clincher
I've always been impressed with the Double Trouble Live album. A great sounding live album. I never knew this video existed. It's fantastic!
Class of 79 here ....a great time to be a rocker!
Grew up to this music. Sounds just as great in 2022 as it did in the 80s. My kind of Rock -n - Roll
Damn I love Hatchet! Totally different sound than anyone else... I miss Danny Joe especially... My favorite vocalist
People who compare them to the Outlaws, Allmans and Skynyrd missed the point completely
Hear hear!
Danny joe was a super cool guy, as real as it gets, this is cool seeing this posted on TH-cam
Danny joe was Molly Hatchet in my opinion
I used to hang out with Dave Hlubek after he left the band. He was a true rock-and-roll gentleman. I miss the guy.
Blessed Mitch 👍🏻
Amazing how....they played...you heard exactly what they played...adjustments. backing tracks...players behind the curtain....not even a concept. God bless the 1970's and God Bless Molly Hatchet.
We pre-gamed cranking Hatchet, Outlaws, Tucker, Skynyrd, Blackfoot, 38 Special, HPB etc.. and we ended the night around a fire by the river cranking it all over again! So now when the wife is not around, the volume goes right back up! Southern Rock Will Never Die
This world will never experience a band like Molly Hatchet ever again.
Molly Hatchet as well as every band mentioned in " Gator Country "were all " road warriors", They lived for the audience every time they took the stage , God Bless & R.I.P.
But he tries to put alabama down in first line of the song. He puts down everyone but the outlaws ? The outlaws best song was Ghosts riders in the sky and that song was older than the red sea !
@@kaisersoze9880 sarcasm. it's funny a sit if you get it. i lol each group, and figured if he didn't mention them, they weren't mentioning. anyway, maybe you're right
@@texasrebelsoul1102 I grew up in Muscle Shoals AL and there is a lot to see and a lot to do.. Mobile is a cool place too. Birmingham ? like another big city really.. Huntsville is cool.. DJB was just wrong, but its just a song ! LOL
@@texasrebelsoul1102You hit it on the head, Bro. Those who weren't mentioned, didn't measure up. That guy must not have heard much Outlaws, if he thinks that cover was their best.
@@kaisersoze9880That's all. I seriously doubt any of those mentioned took it personally.
Hard to believe that all of these guys have passed away. I remember first hearing them 'long about 1979, when they came out with "Flirtin' with Disaster". What a song! Also: Anybody remember a song called "The Creeper"? That's Southern Metal at it's heaviest right there, folks!
I remember hearing Dreams I’ll never see on the radio while smokin the tires on my 70 Roadrunner. Had to buy the newly discovered cassette tape. Those were the best days with the best tunes.
saw theses guys in 81 at jfk in philly with the outlaws,marshall tucker,38 special at a concert called the round,-up.100,000 plus having a blast.they all came on stage and did will the circle be unbroken for the encore
So glad that there is footage and audio of this quality to preserve this greatness for generations to come
True! Thanks to Tom Nitzsche.
And, for the time period that this footage came from, it's in excellent shape! I'm totally amazed, and blown away, that this concert footage is of such high quality!
RIP Dave Hlubek and his girlfriend Christine. We had some great times a few years ago with APB and Shannytown...
RIP Phil McCormack, Bruce Crump, Duane, Banner, Steve...Long live Molly Hatchett...Thanks Tim, Bobby etc for keeping it alive r us...
Saw them in ‘79 Nuremburg Germany. Big outdoor show along with the Scorpions, AC/DC, Cheap Trick & The Who. Stationed in Germany went with a bunch of Army buddies.
Jacksonville kid here. First saw Hatchet when I was 14. Forty years later still digging it.
When someone mentions Southern Rock, Molly Hatchet is the first group I think of. Still my favorite band of all time. Sucks that they have all passed.
Rock n roll Vallhalla needed a better house band. Too much metal without the funky, country blues isn't cutting it.
@@jimr5793 I could never understand 38 Special being called "southern rock" I didn't think anything about them sounded like southern rock?
@@aschule5684 FEEL THE SAME WAY AN IM IN MY LATER 60S STILL PLAYING THERE MUSIC THOUGH
@@alanpage1916 yeah late sixties myself. Have a small farm and have a couple head of cattle and cut pastures to keep weeds a bay several times a year and nothing but old rock and roll being played and me jamming in the cab. People driving by probably think that old bastard lost his mind.
No other can or ever will replace these guys, period! Molly Hatchet had their own sound and they did it like none other! And I agree fully with the others in the comments, even though it's way past due, Molly Hatchet needs to be placed into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!!!
So does another great band Grank Funk Railroad
Their version of Dreams is still my favorite. I got to see both versions of Molly Hatchet at the Lakeland Civic Center in the 1970s and 80s.
Smoking great Song!
The LOUDEST concert I ever went to - couldn't hear my HS teachers talk for a week Greatest moment ever to reflect on America and turn off the BS fed into my head - thank you !!
Haha me too, couldn't hardly hear anything for days afterwards, was worth it tho!
@@peterbilther Hell yah miss those times
This was the first concert I ever went to. I thought all concerts going forward we’re gonna be just as good. Kinda let down that I peaked at my first concert and still chase that raw sound.
Dude it looked like from the video that by the second track the front row was like wtf are we in for?
I saw them 3 times in Fort Pierce Florida, me and all my buddies would go see them perform, best times of my life, sure brings back many fond memories, I miss those times!
Gone with the wind
I saw Danny play with the Hatchet's back in 1992 in New Bern NC. He was really thin and sick and his voice was weak but the show was good and the crowd was there. I actually got to talk to him after the show, he was nothing but nice, sincere and easy going.
This is the stuff that me and all my buddies were jammin' to on the weekends! Most times there was 5 or 6 of us packed in my bedroom from Friday afternoon til Sunday. Mama would keep us all fed and never say one word about how loud we were trying to play. There were small Peavey amps and cheap guitars along with my Roger's drum kit that I paid for by working in the cotton field packed in that bedroom! Times were good! Did anyone else notice how many Peavey amps these guys had stacked behind them? All these guys and the Mississippi made Peavey's are gone forever. I think that they both deserve a place in the Rock and Roll hall of fame! Thomas, Mississippi!
That's a great story, I saw MH with Blackfoot in the battle of the bands here in Nashville Tennessee 1979, so many great things going on back then.
amen to them,they one of the best southern rock bands there ever ever ever was...gives me chills to listen to them..glad I got to grow up hear them all this time....I was lucky they existed.
I'm a damn Yankee, but I love this band. The most pure southern rock ever!
Ditto! And good Southern Rock appeals to EVERYONE whether they're below or above the Mason Dixon line! 😀
Born raised in Chi town all you heard out of the basement was Allman brothers. And later Black foot. And if I'm listening to Molly Hatchet so are my neighbors!!! So glad I found this
They're Floridians. They are NOT "southern".
@@paulvalentine1483 I know everyone disagrees, but I consider Florida a part of the South. Outside of tourist areas, people are typically obese, slow witted, and local law enforcement resembles the Dukes of Hazzard. I’d say it fits the bill.
@@paulvalentine1483 Ha, much of northern Florida is heavily influenced from the culture of the deep south. They are from Jacksonville which is 25 miles from southern Georgia. Call it what you will.
I am from MN, WI, DMV, now TX and loving this FL band playing NJ. This country can be together, or it used to be
We lived with the best music. we have lost so many to early. Long Live rock n roll!!!!
Such a great band. I was lucky enough to see them live twice in the 70's
Yeah Molly Hacket was a great southern rock band of the greatest decade of music. I loved playing it loud in the car rolling down the hwy.
So sad that most of these guys, if not all, have gone to Rock & Roll Heaven😢
Molly Hatchet was a GREAT band!!!🎯👍
I saw this show back in 78 in Houston Texas at the ole Coliseum (no longer exists), and they rocked. The drummer is one bad ass who delivered pretty much the same performance. The licks he plays on "Dreams I'll Never See" are no short of amazing. I'm a drummer who plays in a southern rock band and that song took me a while to learn the studio version. Then again, they're all monsters! RIP Bruce Crump. Sorely missed
These guys must've partied like champions. Cause there's nobody left to ask.
I forgot how great that original line up was! We all miss that talent level in music today
I lived down the street from from Bruce Crump and he would teach kids how to play drums in his garage. Super nice guy. RIP Bruce.
Shockingly good. Unworldly. The songwriting, singing and musicianship are from another era...never to be repeated.
I was lucky to see Molly Hatchet,Outlaws and 38 Special touring together a few times back in the day. Great music and killer guitars! 🤘🏻🎸
I saw the same show at Eddie Graham sports stadium, molly hatchet, the outlaws, and 38 special, awesome show!!!
Music with Heart, Soul and Guts! God, I miss bands like this!
Peavey Guitars! 🎸 I used to own a Peavey Amp. It had good sound!
Hard driving and hard living!
A band of good ole Florida boys!
You know if I drive my car with Molly Hatchet on my Radio I’m going to speed up and get a damn ticket.
That’s the kind of effect this music has on me.
I put the pedal to the metal when I hear music like this!
RIP and thanks for the good times!
😎👏🏻🎸
Molly hatchett is a great band I love there music then n still do they deserve rock n roll hall of fame big time
Long live some of the best music, from one of the best bands, from the Era of the best music....Southern Rock
Nothing will ever compare to this time
I want my 70's and 80's back!!! Damn I love these guys!!!
I saw them during this tour, when they were the opening act for The Outlaws. The show I saw was at the Springfield Civic Center in Springfield MA, and both bands were absolutely on fire that night. It was one of the first concerts I attended, and I've seen Hatchet a total of 6 times over the years. (I know, not as many times as a lot of others have, but I do have photos I took during two of those shows.)
I was fortunate to see them that year. My first concert. I’ll never forget
Fantastic!! I saw them at the New Haven Coliseum in 1979 open for the Outlaws. One the best shows I ever saw!
🔥 🪓 🎸 🎸🎸🔥
AWESOME! I saw the Outlaws open for Black sabbath, I would have loved to see Molly.
San Jose Ca. Same tour, the building was toast after their set and it was like Outlaws who??? The Ultimate bad ass southern rock party band..41 rears gone by and it still fires up a crowd.
Providence RI civic center same tour they were great as were the Outlaws ….long live southern rock even for us northern boys ..🔥🔥🔥🔥🇺🇸🇺🇸
REST IN PEACE Steve Holland who passed August 2, 2020 ... That BAND IS BACK TOGETHER
Sad for Steve n his family
This is some great shit. These guys were at the top of their game. Long live the Three Guitar Lineup!
2 words for ya…
Amen bro.
One of the best bands from the south , and anywhere else ..Molly Hatchet was a staple on my turntable and moving forward into the CD period..This will always be a part of my musical catalog and never vanish
I was stationed at Homestead AFB...and that's where I grew my Redneck wings
My older brothers played the shit outta these guys. I loved them. Good memories. How lucky was I.Still love there music.
Greatly appreciated and missed especially during the times we live in now. Great musicians who loved what they did!
Man , drove thru 7" snow to get to Charlotte to see Molly and Black Sabbath together , 40 years later still best show ever
God I never get tired of watching this shown. These guys were so talented amazing they knew how to bring it ? They simply rocked the place back and forth, man I love em, I especially love Danny Joe Brown💙💚. Amazing singer. It can’t be MH without Danny. Just wouldn’t be the same to me anyway. I’ve partied to MH’s music many many times, good times and great fun !!!

Thank God for this vid!
And surprisingly good audio for 78. Ha, and just after I type that the lead solo gets buried in the mix. Still great.
I was 13 years old when I heard this album in 1979. Thought it was the most awesome thing ever! I was a southern boy and this was right up my alley!
Saw them w Blackfoot in 1980 Sacramento still play this regularly as i love southern rock ,
Born in Jacksonville Florida but live in California still love this band ! Such soul in the music .
Heard it playing in aHD yesterday over the speakers ……… awesome great job MH timeless 🤘🏽
I was lucky to be at the CAPITAL THEATER TO SEE THIS. GOT BACKSTAGE TO HANG AND PARTY!!!! GOOD TIMES INDEED
Saw them at Capitol Centre in Largo, Maryland Back in 80. They were awesome 🤘
Thanks to my trucker Uncle Jimmy for turning me on to these guys when I was around 15 back in the 70’s. We all miss you Uncle Jimmy !
I got to see them open for Foreigner 10 days later 11/20/1978 at the Portland Memorial Colliseum. They were both phenominal, one of the best concerts I ever went to.
