@@joeytacey743 Pat Daughtery. Wayne Evans Jim dandy are the 3 originals left. & then Tommy Aldridge. Whom replaced Wayne on drums back in 71-2? I miss Ricochet he was a wonderful friend.
My first concert. 14 yrs. old. I remember it like it was last year. We were by the tower in the middle. My first fry too. An older, more experienced friend excitedly came up saying he scored some yellow sunshine. Handed a little yellow pill to me and said take it. I did. Does anyone remember the water jugs being thrown? I was tripping balls with the multi-colored water trails. So vivid in my memory from 50 yrs. ago. Don't do drugs kids. I got lucky.
Jim Dandy got his teeth on! Good ol school southern boogie voodoo rock n roll. I remember driving in my 67 Galaxie listening to Black Oak Arkansas "Raunch n Roll" on 8 track. Killer stuff.
If you're gonna listen to some Black Oak Arkansas, I can't think of a better car to do it in than a 67 Galaxie! My dad had one when I was a kid. I love those cars! Especially the fastback sport versions and the convertibles!
I rank them right up there with Thin Lizzy, Blue Oyster Cult, and Mountain when it comes to underrated live bands from the 70s whose best songs (like this one) never got FM radio airplay
My bluegrass band copied their boards nailed together logo and in our second album we had deed to one square inch of land in Prater’s Creek, SC, where we lived. Black Oak Arkansas had a huge influence on me starting in 1973
I became a teenager in the mid 70s and was a huge fan of all things rock! However, and don't ask me why, I knew every song from every dang rock band in the world except Black Oak Arkansas. I grew up in Maine. I don't know if it's because Black Oak Arkansas just didn't have a big following in my state or their record company didn't target Maine as a market, or what the story was. We all had every other southern rock band's albums, and rural Mainers loved southern rock, but nobody seemed to have BOA albums. I regret it that because I missed out on some damned great southern rock!
Saw Black Oak open for Grand Funk. Opened with "When Electricity Came to Arkansas". Dandy flying over the amps, does the splits, while strumming his washboard. WTF is this!!! Squeezebox was the original drummer before Dork. Goober, Burly & Ricochet on guitars, Dirty on bass guitar.
I ATTENDED 7 DIFFERENT CONCERTS BY BLACK OAK ARKANSAS.IT SEEMED AT THE TIME,THAT THEY LIKED PLAYING IN BIRMINGHAM ALABAMA,& TREATED BIRMINGHAM TO 7 CONCERTS,& I ATTENED THEM ALL.THIS WAS THE 1970'S - 72,73,74,& SAW ALL OF THEIR TV APPEARANCES.THIS WAS TRULY,THE GOOD OLE DAYS,& ALOT OF HERB WAS PASSED AROUND AT THOSE CONCERTS,& ALOT OF ACID/LSD, TAKEN,IN THOSE DAYS.I HAVE FLASH BACK SOMETIMES,THEY COME OUT OF THE BLUE,& THERE IS NOTHING YOU DO,BUT RIDE IT OUT BECAUSE THIS WAS DECADES AGO.I GOT SO HIGH,& TRIPPING IN THOSE DAYS,& CHICKS WERE EASIER THEN,MANY WEARING HALTER TOPS & JEANS,, THAT WAS IT.
@@JackALynn-pv1ow haha. You got it. That’s what it sounds like to me when people say ‘Greetings’ (from whatever country they come from where English isn’t their first language). “I vont to suck your blood.”
It’s incredible how many people did it know about Black Oak Arkansas Jim dandy directly influenced David Lee Roth Im a huge fan of both . Of course Tommy Alldredge was everywhere incredible incredible drummer focused, powerful and innovative dammit I love Black Oak Arkansas
I wanted to add, David Lee Roth said he stole his stage act from Jim Dandy, but in my opinion, Jim has always been far better live. David acted,and still acts like he doesn't care to even sound good. But even though Jim is older a bit heavier he still sounds great, David Lee Roth acts more like Steve Martin today. I would much rather see BOA live over Van Halen. Molly Hatchet doesn't even have one original band member. they are a cover band now in my opinion. they still sound good, but it's a cover band. Lynyrd Skynyrd should be called the Gary Rossington band. But BOA will always be BOA with Jim Dandy. I don't understand how this has only got a 1704 views in 7 yrs. most of today's music sucks ass. I remember when R&B was rhythm and blues, not Rap and Bull Shit" what the fuck happened? I am so glad to see BOA still putting out great music. thanks again for this upload. Peace Joe
I was there, sitting between the speaker towers way in the back, beer, weed, wine , acid and 300 thousand freaks, good times. Look at david lee roths pose on their 1st album cover, right outta B.O.A. and Jim Dandy
Yeah I used to remember that back when I was 14 years old and man I didn't really know who these cats were and I've always liked them that's some badass Jim Jim dandy to the rescue yeah let's rock and roll people I appreciate the comment and I wanted to say something to you have a good evening bye
I looked at the first few seconds of the video and thought, "Is that Cal Jam?" I looked below and saw why yes indeedy. I wasn't there but I recognize it from Cal Jam II. Both were held at the Ontario Motor Speedway. A dust bowl of a place along with 350K of my best friends.
Sure going to miss that 12 string.I wonder if he still had it when he passed.Last time..I seen them they used accoustic guitars.it was only the singer& the gutair player.They where jamming.Love is the key. ..
All three guitarist in this video are now gone... Rest in peace Harvey jet, Rick Reynolds, and Stanley Knight 😭
N honorable mention not in the video the great Shawn Lane who could blow doors on most guitarist then n now , think he joined the band at 16
If we're going to do honorable mention and we have to mention Jimmy Henderson who is also gone... He took Harvey Jets place later that year

@joetacey743
These guitarists and Alice Cooper’s original’s didn’t get the credit they were due imho.
Great band never got the credits they deserved. Hardly know anyone else that even heard of them.
I was there live. California Jam 1974.
I was here too!

Muito bom, friend 👏👏
If it wasn’t for Jim Dandy, there would be no David Lee Roth
Jim Dandy forever! Owning the stage!

a great album R N R live....a favorite of mine
'66 Nova here
Still got over a 1000 8 tracks and a few Black Oak Arkansas in the collection caught them 3 occasions in Louisville back in the 70's
66 Black Satellite, built 383, 4:10 Dana with N-50's. "Hotrod" blaring from the 8 track.
I rank them right up there with Thin Lizzy, Blue Oyster Cult, and Mountain when it comes to underrated live bands from the 70s whose best songs (like this one) never got FM radio airplay
Yup, BOC put on a Hell of a good live show too. But still not Jim Dandy great imho.
BLACK OAK ARKANSAS THE BEST SOUTHERN ROCK. LOVE HIS VOICE. JIM YOU ARE DANDY
❤ he definitely owns the stage!!! Love his voice!!
I still have my deed to One Inch of Black Oak Arkansas from inside 'Raunch and Roll!'
me too! framed and hanging on my living room wall, right next to my cue stick rack!

Got mine too. Stay off my property, son.
Get off my lawn.
I lost mine years and years ago, it is one I wish I still had. Along with all the other cool stuff they put in albums
They've died but the great work stay;the rock and roll is eternal,forever!
Dandy's latest B.O.A lineup, just released a covers album.
absolutely a genuine good band.
Great memories-saw them in 73 with skynyrd the warm up.

Yes you did!!!!!!😒😒
You didn't watch the Midnight special in the 70s? BOA was on a few times.
Saw Black Oak cpl of times Little Rock Arkansas Barton Coliseum. I was 15yr. in '72 Remember paying $3 for a ticket, great band
16 people have no ears to hear what great rock music sounds like!!!
Great band great memories
It is cool seeing Tommy Aldridge here! Before Ozzy and Whitesnake...
And Pat Travers!
I shared a hand rolled smoke with Jim Dandy after their set at the LSU Assembly Center many years ago.
I saw them 6times in the 70s they kicked ass every time!!!!!!
I was at that california jamb and black oak was already one of my favorite bands
Underrated band! Different style to Skynyrd, that I like, and at times heavier!
Excellent group when they visited México city on june 28 of 1980
Saw Black Oak open for Grand Funk. Opened with "When Electricity Came to Arkansas". Dandy flying over the amps, does the splits, while strumming his washboard. WTF is this!!! Squeezebox was the original drummer before Dork. Goober, Burly & Ricochet on guitars, Dirty on bass guitar.
My first concert, Oct 18, 1971. OKC Fairgrounds BOA opening for Grand Funk. Dandy had a long beard then.
Excelente!!!!!!!!Más de 50 Años y un placer Escucharlos .....jim Dandy......
I was 16 when this concert was held. Damn good days.
Very theatrical Rock song. He's a real Showman.
Awesome rock and roll...downright killer song
This jam is a drum solo start to finish, but Tommy really blows off some fire power rocket sauce in his outro drumming, just astounding stuff !!!
CLASSIC BLACK OAK!!!! LOVE IT

Rock until you drop! Rock and roll will never die!!! BOA.

They could be heavy as hell.
Is this that California Jam with Sabbath and Deep Purple.

Jim Dandy is still among us. "LORD HAVE MERCY".

Carl DiNunno what happened?
Harvey Jett turned his life over to CHRIST AND NOW GIVES HIS TESTIMONY IN CHURCHS AND TO THOSE WHO WANT TO HEAR HIS TESTIMONY...

What a Great Rock Concert on April 6, 1974! The Stage reminds me of what it was like back then! Before the RAINBOW got Hijacked by the Gay Movement!
The reason Punk was invented.
Cozy was such a bad ass drummer. this is a great video. they sound fucking awesome.
