Now that both Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis have passed on, it's so wonderful to see them both here with Ronnie hawkins. I have loved them and this music all my life.
I found this preformence about a month ago an I have played it a thousand times I sure am glad they got together. Before most of them.passed great band in heaven rip
Playing this video for just a little while all of a sudden makes everything in the world right again. Seeing Ronnie in prime form surrounded by sooo many legends. Jeff doing Down in the Alley.....wow. Since I lost my left arm in an MVA my life highlights will be forever poised on that stage with him in the 70s and the 90s. Ronnie was the best thing that ever influenced the Canadian Music Industry. I'll always love you Ron.
Always liked Rompin' Ronnie Hawkins, who spent his entire career singing in Canada. Liked his growl and his upbeat tunes. RIP Ronnie! Would have loved to have been at his 60th Birthday party @ Massey Hall in Toronto.
Lordy, Lordy, the amount of talent and experience in this group makes my heart smile. These are the people who have accompanied me through my life.. God Bless them and may their Memory always sparkle like it does in this video. Rest In Heaven to most of them.🎼🎶🖤
RIP Buzz Thompson the HAWK playing beside Carl Perkins. Died Friday July 6th 2018 in Toronto Ontario. Born in Peterborough Ontario where he will always be the number one Soul Brother. You're sadly missed by all Mr. Soul.
Crickey what a BAND!!!! No wonder Rompin' Ronnie sounds even better than ever! He's one of those performers who put everything he had into his shows- needed to see him live-
the talent on that stage is staggering. we have lost most of them now but videos like this one brings them back anytime we want to take the time to listen.
Yeah Baby , this is what music is all about just letting it out and oh my Lord If it was on a Sunday it would be as good as going to church, I have seen Ronnie and the Harks many times at the La Coc Door Tavern, yeah I know it was a strange name but the music was off the charts. God Bless you Ronnie you are the real deal, I am a proud Canadian, long live that Toronto sound
Buzz Thompson the guitar player playing beside Carl Perkins was a legendary musician from Peterborough, Ontario Canada . Sadly Buzz or Mr.Soul as people around town called him passed away on Friday July 6th 2018 around 8:30 pm just in time to get ready for the gig with the big band in the sky. Rest in Peace Buzz you'll always be number One Soul Brother to me.
@@edhollingsworth2335 Yes Buzz Thompson was an outstanding individual and musician. I miss him daily. He passed too soon. May he be at Peace, Playing and Singing in Rest. Thank you for sharing your experience with him a high school! Did you go see him play with any of his bands he fronted or played with around the area over the year's? Or at any of the gigs he played at the school? ✌💞🎶🙏
An Allstar Rock Band with a mix of young and old and they are magnificent!! The Hawk might have spent more money than he made but he had a hell of a lot of fun doing it and he was such a major influence on the music in Canada! What Jeff Healey could do with a guitar in his lap is legendary. He should be on everybody's list of the top guitar players of all time....full stop!!!!
so glad that I had the opportunity to see Jeff Healey live a few times and to shake that legends hand. What a great guitarist. No disrespect but he blew away those great old timers with his guitarmanship on ''Down in the Alley''.
No auto tune, just pure music! A missed note gets fixed by a little something better in the next bar. No one is perfect , and that’s why live shows with the greatest artists are the best , do their best and let the rest catch up.
They say when you lose one of your senses the others get a bit stronger to compensate for the 1 lost. I think the soul in Healey's fingers got the brunt of that energy. I'm a guitar player myself and my style is of Hendrix, SRV, Robin Trower, Frank Marino, Rory Gallegher, Gary Moore, but Jeff Healey is just on another level. If i could ever get to 2% of how he could play i'll be happy.
Sad to hear about his passing earlier today. What a rock n roller Icon, and great Canadian contributor. I have lived in the Peterborough Ontario area and knew he lived close by. I was always hoping that I could have run into him just to say Hi, but never got the chance. RIP Mr. Hawkins.
R.I.P.. Ronnie Hawkins. Thanks for posting this, Laszlo. What a great rockabilly concert. musicians and singers include: Ronnie, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Levon Helm, Robbie Robertson, Jeff Healey, & Lawrence Gowan.
Harold Kudlats from Hamilton Ontario booked "the Hawk" into bars on Yonge St. in Toronto with the Hawks. I was very young. . .l know Ronnie called Kudlats "the captain" Recently Ronnie sold his place near Peterborough. I went to a party at the Zoomerplex for his birthday. Hopefully he'll have many more. ANNETTE
I first saw Ronnie perform circa 1965 in Fredericton, New Brunswick. Levon and the boys had already departed and I think he was being backed by Robbie Lane & the Disciples. First “real” rock band I I saw live and I was mightily impressed. 20+ years later I saw Jeff play at Clinton’s tavern in Toronto and again I was impressed…
Well, I have lived almost all my life in my great 50's music bubble. Been soo good to me. I for example love Elmore James. Nevertheless the slide at ca 7:23 is great, Jeff with the guitar on the lap... Yep, Jeff Healey. Died only 41 years old. Too bad. R.I.P.
This generation will never know rock and roll like this
Masters of their craft. Each a legend
Now that both Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis have passed on, it's so wonderful to see them both here with Ronnie hawkins. I have loved them and this music all my life.
😂
I found this preformence about a month ago an I have played it a thousand times I sure am glad they got together. Before most of them.passed great band in heaven rip
Ronnie, Jeff, Levon, Carl and Jerry Lee all sorely missed. RIP.
When I need to remember what the real music was like I come back here
I was born in poor Zimbabwe in 1976 but have loved these guys all my life. May their soul Rest In Peace.
Why oh why was Jeff Healy not one of the biggest rock/blues stars ever? He certainly deserved it!
He died young
He sure is incredible here!!
Jeff Healey flat smokín' this jam!
Gone but not forgotten ❤️
RIP Ronnie thank you for the gift of your music you brought to us all
Какая сила, слушать можно вечно, какое величие, молодцы и дай Бог Вам всем здоровья.
Jeff burning it up !
I was at this show. It was a party and a celebration of a life well sung. You were a legend Ronnie . RIP Hawk
Rock'n roll will never, never die...💟🕺🤘 wish i were at that concert... R.I.P fellas...see ya ❤❤❤
Listened to blues/rock for a long lifetime and this is the best by a group of legendary all-stars.
Have mercy !!!! Love it ! Now that's Rock N Roll my friends !
Amen to that.

Whoa, what a lineup. Brilliant stuff. Rock on.
Listening to this concert is the only drugs I need!!!
Almost all of them gone now 😢 - thanks for the music fellas....
Rompin Ronnie was one of a kind. A CANADIAN ICON

The Hawk had one of the best Southern Rock voices ever!

This is talent.... can't keep still listening to this x
Following this man since the 60's. Marvelous talent and one of the nicest people you could ever meet. Rip Hawk.
The Hawk is gone, but never forgotten!

Ronnie Hawkins is the Hawk. RIP to him too
@@quaaludecowboy692 Yes it was another sad day when Ronnie Hawkins passed away.
Rest in Peace Hawk!
The Hawk attended Mr. Souls funeral too.

Fantastic
Rest In Peace, Ronnie! You made your (ours) hometown, Fayetteville, Arkansas, very proud.
Two great performers of all time as so many great country and rock and roll bands of all time may they both rest in peace

A lot of good old southern boys in that group. Lots of great Canadian artists too.👍👍
RIP dear, dear super entertainer, all will be rockin' on HIGH for eternity!!
Love this concert so much. The music is amazing
Legendary! THIS is rock n roll!
Amen! Rock & Roll
RIP Ronnie. Wow! I've seen Jeff Healey play live thrice - but I've NEVER heard him play like that!
Good heavens, all the featured players are no longer with us -- even Jeff, who left us too early. Great band!
Jeff Healy WOW amazing
To come home and end the day by listening to "Down in the Alley".....
Can there be much else that is better then this rendition?
Glad they recorded itan I thank whoever put it on this channel

CARL PERKINS GREAT GREAT GREAT -And all of them - fantastic

I have the CD from this concert, wish I had a DVD. If you want to hear real music, this is what you need.
All legends. May they rest in peace.
so glad that I had the opportunity to see Jeff Healey live a few times and to shake that legends hand. What a great guitarist. No disrespect but he blew away those great old timers with his guitarmanship on ''Down in the Alley''.
The slide guitarist on Down in the Alley was Duane Allman, not Jeff.
Sorry, I was referring to the original version, didn’t realize it was part of this show.
Carl Perkins is there too playing guitar of course! One of the best and most underrated!
huge
under rated? He was the personification of hitsville then and now....
@@williametheridge1764yes you are so right
@@caroltenge5147 this is a great group of musicians
Yes I totally agree.
I miss this man. So honured to of met him.

Thank you my friend. RIP Jeff. 😄
Rory Gallager was a monster performer. Even Angus Young can't cover as much stage as Rory. (I know because I worked two AC/DC tours.)
Rock-and-roll Heaven, Stop taking our Rockers. 🤟🤟👍🤟🤟
I know, its only rock & roll....but I like it.
Bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is awesome 👍 thanks for sharing it.
Best rockn roll voice ever....love it...❤❤❤
I saw Ronnie at the Carlsberg pavilion at the Toronto Exhibition in the early 80's. still remember it as one of the bet live shows ever. RIP
And now they are Rocking in and the heaven.😮😮❤❤❤
R.I.P.. Ronnie Hawkins. Thanks for posting this, Laszlo. What a great rockabilly concert. musicians and singers include: Ronnie, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Levon Helm, Robbie Robertson, Jeff Healey, & Lawrence Gowan.

God Bless Ronnie! R.I.P. Brother!

Go Ronnie Go 👏
Brother Levon !!! RIP from the UK
So much talent - gone too soon.

The day they tour old Toronto down rip to all the greats put togeather here

20+ years later I saw Jeff play at Clinton’s tavern in Toronto and again I was impressed…
"The Giant of Rock n Roll" indeed! Man, I missed most of a career for which he got props from the legends right here
RIP Ronnie, Jeff and Levon.
JL Lewis should feel honored to play at Massey Hall in Canada.
What a great Party !
Incredible 🙏🏼❤️🎶😎
Rock on Boys
Jeff Healey omg so sadly missed
Man! Jeff was freaking awesome!
Damned good music, love it!
Well, I have lived almost all my life in my great 50's music bubble. Been soo good to me. I for example love Elmore James. Nevertheless the slide at ca 7:23 is great, Jeff with the guitar on the lap... Yep, Jeff Healey. Died only 41 years old. Too bad. R.I.P.
Fantastika,prva liga in the world
