How bloody awesome is this!!!!! I have NEVER heard Swinging Safari sound so good. If only they would put this on one of their albums. Raul Malo is without a doubt the best voice around, & there is no other band today that even comes close to the Mavericks. They are the REAL DEAL!
Short answer....No. There isn't anything he can't sing. His range--both figuratively and literally--is ridiculous. I've loved introducing him and the Mavericks to my kids. My daughter calls his voice "the male version of Patsy Cline." Hard to argue with her.
Fun fact: this was one of 6 concerts they played at the Royal Albert Hall ( around 1998 /1999 ?), it was televised and made into a VHS tape which I had for decades until they became obsolete! The full concert was cracking, at one point Jerry Dale McFadden ( keyboards) got loads of people up on the stage to dance which seriously worried the security blokes ! I saw them twice, Cornhill exchange, Cambridge & Camden Lock,London… and still have a blue towel that Raul used ( the young blond trombone player gave it to me at the end of the Cambridge gig 👍 Great memories.
One of these shows does more than any drug in the world to lift your spirits. I've seen them three times. These guys do better covers than the original. Pure joy!
to think that i live a stone through away from were they're performing and i didn't know about the mavs from my husband only from his CDs love listening to you so much.
You are WAY OFF! Go see this BAND live and you will not find a WEAK LINK in it anywhere. Every Band has a "Front & Face" and NOBODY is better than Raul Malo: but what makes the Magic with these guys is the synergy & Passion and Talent that is shared. If you were a REAL Raul fan you wouldn't insult him or the Mavericks by making such a comment.
I agee with TEXASFENDERBENDER. The Mavericks are, without a doubt, the best party band in the world. Absolutely without a weak spot in their lineup - musically superb, led by Raul Malo, and entertaining as hell. My wife and I drove 250 miles to catch them in concert, and then drove home after the concert. I’d do it again in a heartbeat. I’ve seen them 3 times and each concert was a delight.
ABSOLUTELY! THIS IS one of the Rockin'est, kick-ass "TEXAS, ZYDECO-ROCKIN'COWBOY-SALSA BANDS to ever cut-loose in the CANADIAN ROCKIES! THESE BOYS CHALLENGE Mick Jagger and the ROLLING STONES, for blowing the ROOF OFF of COMMONWEALTH STADIUM IN EDMONTON! AND THE ROLLING STONES left two hundred "BULLY BOYS"deaf as stones!
WONDERFUL! I may be saying something awful, so no offence , but I don't care if the Mavs are with him or not. It was always just Raul as far as I was concerned. It's HIS voice, and they just happened to be there. I'm sorry!
Its now 14 years later and his pipes are still magnificent.
How bloody awesome is this!!!!! I have NEVER heard Swinging Safari sound so good. If only they would put this on one of their albums. Raul Malo is without a doubt the best voice around, & there is no other band today that even comes close to the Mavericks. They are the REAL DEAL!
Raul never fails to lift our spirits and melt our heart, brilliant musicians too.
You can see on Raul's face how much he loves what he does. Brilliant singer, musician and showman.
Mavericks strike again, the lion won't sleep in the jungle when he hears this awesome band playing such fantastic music.
That Paul Deakin on drums is something else... just listen to his DRIVING BEAT that underpins the entire sound of the Mavericks.
I love that guy!
Ein Konzert der Extraklasse
Truly some feel good music. The mavericks at their best!
Raul does The Lion Sleeps Tonight FLAWLESSLY. His voice is PERFECT.

Joe Megafan is 100% on the money!
2009metisman i think only Brian Setzer can come close to covering anything as well as Raul Malo and the Mavericks. Awesome voice
Short answer....No. There isn't anything he can't sing. His range--both figuratively and literally--is ridiculous. I've loved introducing him and the Mavericks to my kids. My daughter calls his voice "the male version of Patsy Cline." Hard to argue with her.
Love this . They so good. They're drummer killed it.

Great memories.

Mi piacerebbe che Carlo Conti invitasse a Sanremo questi eccezzionali musicisti❤
toute un orquestre ca y a pas de meillieure merci d etre la! ce st super bon tres tres bon! vous avez toute un talent.
Love this band first te listening to them and loving them 💕💕💕💕
luv raul and the band ... awesome...thx for posting :-) CHEERS! kat
Who thought that a “breakup” song could get people out of their seats and dancing. Lol😅
I didn't know he could Rock! I feel like I've been missing out!
You should hear his rendition of The Hollies "Long Cool Woman" (also on TH-cam).
perry blackman I'll do that thank you!
Raul was a punk rocker in high school
Wow Wow WOw. The Lion Sleeps Tonight!!!!
you just cannot beat a band playing live !!!!
I think JD wears socks now that match that hair color.
Great to see all the dancing!!
Love them, come back to Colorado!
What a great singer he is love him.❤️
WOW! I'm so hooked on this band! And, what a voice with Raul Malo. Also, picked up the band on Facebook! YAY!
I agree Joan Taber...Raul Malo is the best singer and there are so many singers to chose from. I want to see The Marvicks in person.
The Royal Albert Hall rocking to the Mavericks? Wow! Great.
IZJEMNO!!!
to think that i live a stone through away from were they're performing and i didn't know about the mavs from my husband only from his CDs love listening to you so much.
His voice reminds me a lot of Glen Campbell's voice. VERY well-done!
snickpickle Hmmmm I think Roy Orbison is a better comparison. Glen Campbell I’d consider that an insult imho
Have you heard him do "Gentle On My Mind?"
Really good artist and great song!!!
Amazing band! That show us the best musicians not to be very commercial necessarily.
great singer i think
Raul can rock....check out his Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress
Fabulous!
The Royal Albert Hall p, London, rocks to Raul and The Mavericks. Marvellous.
I love when he does a rollicking song.
l'orquestre la meillieur le big bend orquestra super
its a shame that you have to lesion to xm radio just to here him.
Quanta allegria in questa canzone!! Grande Raul !!! 🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😘😘😘🤗🤗💎💎💓💓💋
My observation is that whenever RM and band do a cover their stuff is always squared away.
yeee haaaa!!!!!
@HopiRaven I thought the same thing and that is not being unkind its just the way it is
when are you coming back to the uk
Hooked.
Le guitariste qui gratte sa guitare raoul a été bon avec lui il as fait une cure de dinseitoxe
Does anybody know the date of this show? Please?
HE CAN SING OPREA IF HE WANTS he can sing anything
To byl bend dziś juz tak nie brzmią 😂

TEXASFENDERBENDER Raul is one of the best singers ever heard. Amongst his peers he is known as velvet voice
