This is the band at their apex. Kickass. Not just the guitars (Roger Fisher) but listen to that voice. That stage presence. The drumming.
A band at its apex is a beautiful thing. Everything clicked. I love this performance.
I love the Wilson sisters. Anne slept with half of the band and Nancy slept with the other half. Even Stevie Nicks was impressed.
Here here! This one and Magic Man. Pure gold
The rightest words to this performance and clip
Best female rock singer. Period.
Deborah Harry
💯👊❤️
She and Joan jett
one of the best, she's not the only one
@joebagodonuts8119 - Look for the band Fanny live performances & then come back & say the same. Many amazing female singers who got thrown by the wayside because of misogyny. E.g., look up what this song is really about & what was done to the Wilson sisters.
The talent on that stage is mind-blowing. A moment in time when everything falls in place just perfectly and a rock staple is born.
Yep, the original Heart band, but the real talent on that stage was Roger Fisher, the lead guitarist, he's the one who came up with all those famous riffs on Barracuda, Crazy On You, Magic Man etc.. Notice how back then Nancy was just an acoustic strummer. When Roger broke up with Nancy and quit the band in 1979 they were never the same again, but those early albums and songs with him kept their legacy alive until this day. In recent years Nancy plays electric guitar and likes to mimic what Roger played but does it poorly compared to him, i've also seen interviews where she does revisionist history and talks about creating those riffs herself, which of course she didn't.
@@greatunz67 the band did not need nancy. i love heart. i used to love the wilson sisters but as it turns out, they are hateful people.
@josephlalock8378 70s Heart songs Nancy wrote without Roger = 19; 70s Heart songs Roger wrote without Nancy = 0.
A riff is not a song and Ann was only writing lyrics most of the time. Nancy wrote the melody and bridge of Barracuda and Michael Derosier has stated "she added tons to it". There would be no Crazy On You for Roger to add his little riff to if she hadn't written the song in the first place. And he did not come up with the riff on Magic Man, or plenty of other rock songs like Heartless, Straight On, Devil Delight, White Lightning and Wine. They were a cover band before Nancy joined, and immediately after getting kicked out BY THE WHOLE BAND because they were sick of his attitude and violent outbursts, Roger went back to playing covers in bars. Ann and Nancy continued writing good songs to this day while he's stuck recycling riffs in aimless songs and copying Jimmy Page. Regardless of commercial success.
@@Hellfire994 where did i say anything about roger? oh wait, i DIDN'T!
I hate using the term underrated, but Denny Carmassi was an underrated drummer.
Ann Wilson, Linda Ronstadt, and Karen Carpenter have truly blessed these ears. Thank you ladies!
@stephenhayes8793 today's corporate music shuns such talent
Ann Wilson was and is the prettiest woman and most talented singer in Rock 'n' Roll. She is my girl crush ♥
Most talented and beautiful female rock singers
That's back when Ann Wilson was the best looking and sexiest rock and roll female singer on the planet. But even today she's still one of the best sounding female vocalist. And Nancy is still one of the best female guitarist. Just an amazing group of musicians
Smokin hott
Into chick's tho.... completely kills it
No, Nancy is one of the best guitarists. Full stop. Ann belts the lyrics out but Nancy is absolutely possessed by the music.
All my friends loved Nancy, but I was always crushing on Ann.
Don’t forget about their smokin’ hot band, too! 🔥🔥🔥 Gorgeous talented men! 😍
VERY FEW bands can perform their songs at this level of quality live.
About thirty years ago, I was a volunteer for the city of Woodinville for their 4th of July and Christmas celebrations. At the end of the year, the Parks and Recreation Department held a party for all of the volunteers. The head of the Parks and Recreation Department went to high school with Roger Fisher, the guitarist for Heart, and he invited him to come perform at our party. He showed up and played an acoustic set of Heart songs and old rock and roll. Afterwards, he went around to every table and took the time to talk to us. He seemed genuinely interested in what events we had worked on. A down to earth person.
Best female singer
The one and only Ann Wilson. I always forget how absolutely beautiful she was. Model beautiful.
Still is
Heart was original and they were a great band. They held their own in an era dominated by all-male super groups. Their music holds up today and will forever.
I know we can't stay 20 forever but how gorgeous both they were, especially Ann at that period.
Gather ‘round young whippersnappers…this is how we used to break bands nationally in the U.S. back in 1977. We didn’t have no Google machines or BookChat or InstaFace or any of that…if you wanted your band to have a national profile you got on Midnight Special. Heart is absolutely going for it here, recognizing the significance of the moment and just burning down the stage.
And here in 2024, after nearly 50 years, this is still the level you get from them. Like all great bands Heart knows it’s about the music and the fans and bringing a workwoman approach each and every night because this might be a fan’s only time seeing them and they don’t want anyone leaving disappointed. Thank you, Heart and we will always love you!
Right on!
"We didn’t have no Google machines or BookChat or InstaFace or any of that" That is funny as shit! Well played. Don't forget about Don Kirshner's Rock Concert.
@@bigelile07 Thank you...and yes, Kirschner's Rock Concert was respectfully, the minor leagues. You did Kirschner and then if you "passed" you got to do Midnight Special.
@@1969EType I don't think so. Go look at the artists that were on each show. There were artists/bands that were on DKRC that were never on TMS that were huge. Just from a quick glimpse. Pat Benatar, Bad Company, Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Black Sabbath, Blue Öyster Cult, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Rush...the list goes on and on.
Her voice and that music man I'm telling you I know this is a played out radio song but God damn is it badass
Tak.
In 1970s Ann Wilson was the greatest female rock singer.
Who could sing like she did at that time, and who could even now?
Her voice was really wonderful.
chrissy hynde of the pretenders
Live! No lip-synk. No pitch correction. No auto-tune. It's sad what music has devolved into.
when's the last time you went to a show? 1972?
And there it is, the obligatory “back in my day there was no autotune” comment, with bonus unnecessary hyphenation no less! Congrats to those who had both those squares on your boomer bingo card. 🙃
And it’s “lip sync”. A lip sink is where you remove makeup I suppose? 😆
@@radish6691 So you're saying is that you are okay with fakes. It doesn't matter what year it is, 2+2 still equals 4.
@@danabuch324 Check out the Lexington Lab Band. They do slick perfect covers of these old songs with no studio gimmickery whatsoever.
@@radish6691Good to see you got that out of your system kid😢
The Wilson sisters are the best in the rock world no doubt in my mind you 2 are the age you are and can definitely perform AWESOME keep it coming you two absolutely beautiful beautiful women 😊
Tak.
Both sisters were gorgeous and equally talented!
One of the best female voices of the 70s.
Happy Monday... thank you for sharing! 💖
1977!Didn't remember that tune was so old !Where have all the years gone !?Happy monday,cheers 🎸
@that70sgirl90 - *Both* sisters have fantastic talent, voices & still are gorgeous😊!
This is the most incredible, energetic, and best version of the song I've ever heard and seen I hope there is more to see from this concert at The Midnight Special!
@GerardFrenchy59 I blinked, and it was 2024! Cheers... To the good old days! Good times and Great music.😊
@@that70sgirl90 The days are gone, but the music stays in our heart 🙏🎸
I can't shake them!!! 😂Im learning to play the song and admiring the beauty of the band!!!!
They are really at their peak here.
Seriously. One of the Hottest songs ever.
They nailed that performance.
Early Heart was so badass. They had to be with all the male competition.
I agree! Well said.
LOL, four of the band members were male....
1977 was just 13 , can remember midnights on Saturdays was fun and exciting waiting for the Midnight Special to see who was performing and my first live view of these talented ladies and had just gotten their first to cassettes that year and fell in Love with Heart was blessed to see them Live at Mud Island Music Festival in Memphis in 1988, Get Well soon Ann all our thoughts and prayers are with you and your recovery
Me too! My parents were pretty cool then, so we always heard the newest stuff in early to late '70s! Love these girls man!
Ann rocks with her rocking voice! 🤩
Real deal live performance on national TV, and the band is f-ing TIGHT. Unbelievable. I remember so well, driving in my car in graduate school and I heard Magic Man for the first time. I stopped the car in the parking lot and just drank it in, wondering WHO THE HELL is this band??
Wow!... Anne. Wow! Teenage me was a huge heart Fan in the late 70s and early 80s, but they never came anywhere near my small town, and I never saw any of these videos on TV. Seeing it now I'm even more blown away. This is so real and amazing, and she is just so naturally beautiful. Such a distance from the overproduced plastic product we get now.
I want more.
That song never gets old!
i think its their best song.
Legendaria canción de Heart. Toda la potencia del rock en este tema. La voz de Ann Wilson de otro lote
A band fully loaded with talent and a distinctive sound!
Make sure you read the Wilson Sisters' wonderful book, 'Kicking and Dreaming: A Story of Heart, Soul, and Rock and Roll'. It's a great read and tells how the music industry used to be. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I saw Heart with Journey and Foreigner at Concord Pavillion.
Finally, seeing this group was great. What a line-up, great show.
Wow; does this sound freaking amazing; wish we could go back in time!!!
I love the clothes. It doesn't get any better than Heart in their prime. 💖🔥
Heart brought it on this performance. Epic!
Awesome live footage! Great to see them in their prime, even though they are still rocking in 2024 (once Ann recovers). Have seen them several times live and will again when they tour in Canada. Would love to see the other 2 songs from this episode- "Check It Out" and "Keep Your Love Alive". M.S. is the best channel on TH-cam!
Kick It Out
Love Alive.
Wow. Just insane beauty and performance from Ann Wilson here. Peak of their powers just incendiary. Gives me goosebumps.
I saw Heart back around this time. Great band. I've seen them a few times since in Seattle. That first time was special.
Saw them twice at the Commack Arena. STYX J.Giles and B.O.C. Awesome memories. Also saw them at the Nassau Colessium opening for Leslie West and KISS New Years eve 1977.
Just WOW! Ann's voice and stage performance is one of a kind, but in this song the guitar solo at the end is just mesmerizing. Despite the poor video and horrible lightning, Great stuff!!
These clips are such a treasure. Heart at the peak of their powers!
Amazing song writers holy shit!
I think she is best female singer and overall is only bested by Freddie Mercury (#2) and Elvis (#1). Love these 70’s videos of here.
They played so tight here pure FIRE 🔥🔥🔥
A voice unmatched in ROCK !!!! WOW !
Lucky enough to meet these ppl in the 80's...
This is one of my and my neighbors favorite song. Don’t get any better than this! Way to go Ann and Nancy and band! HEART!!!
Heart what a awesome band with the sisters!!!
Ann Wilson in the 70s .man right out of a dream beauty .this line up was soo good too.I always said that IF Led Zep would have continued after Bonzo's passing.Mike Derosier really was the only one for me to be on the skins for them .xoxo
Seen Heart live three times. Great live in concert experience! 🎶
can you imagine being in the audience??never ever forget that one
Saw them on sweden rock. What a band!!
In 1978, while I was in the service, I got a Gibson Thunderbird bass because Steve Fossen used one!!!
Unbelievable 💛
I remember watching this, I was 15 and never missed The Midnight Special, great memories.
I saw them live in Frankfurt Germany about the same time. Heart was the warmup for Nazaret but it wasn't publicly advertised. The audience didn't want to let Heart off of the stage and Nazareth was a bit of a let down. True story.
Great time to be young,how can you not take your eyes off these girls...grand slam hits...yes it was good
Ann Wilson, like a warrior goddess of the rock'roll
Heart rips. one of the goats of all time.
Great concert. Saw you guys in December of this year. You guys never let all of us friends down !! Keep them rolling Bun !!
One of those bands that helped me get through the disco years. TY TY TY!
She could....and can tear it up!!!!
I was only seven years old when this came out but Barracuda has always been one of my favorite songs and Ann Wilson has always been one of my favorite female vocalists.
I love the Midnight Special, cause they put on so many amazing groups. I couldn't wait to watch and see who they were going to have on. Midnight Special was just simply the best.
Love Ann Wilson's vocals. Roger Fisher was really a showboater back then but was their best guitarist.
This was so cool. A great song, by a great band. I saw Heart 5 times live. Cheers! ✌🏻❤
Met ann after the royal albert gig in london 2016 got my book signed thank you ann ❤
Flawless vocal performance 👏👏👏
Ann is the G.O.A.T !!! No one can compare!!
Best version yet !
Anne Wilson!!! We love you; Godspeed.
I mean……could this be any better????❤❤❤
I’ve seen Heart three times starting in ‘78 and again in 2013, their encore consisted of several greats from Led Zep! These gorgeous ladies kick some rock n roll butt! I still have my “Dog and Butterfly” album~ bought my freshman year of college. They’ve got some mighty hunky looking and talented men to back them! Kick it Out Ladies!!! 💜🩵💖💛💚
One of the greatest things about heart was they would perform at very small venues and fairs. I saw them at The Kegger outside of Missoula, Montana in 1976. It was insanely good, Heart was far and away the best performance.
Whoa! Montana!
I was stationed in England and Heart was blasting all over the base. Two beautiful girls rocking. Life was good! Thank you, Ann and Nancy!
Excellent performance! Really electrifying! ⚡️💜😎
Nearly saw them here! Tour postponed. Take care all especially Ann. 🇬🇧😢😢😢
My favorite all time rock song!
And that folks , is how you rock and roll!
Fantastic, can't get enough. I keep watching this over and over again...
I know Nancy got all the attention, but I think Ann is just gorgeous!
Lest anyone ever say that girls can't rock, have them watch this clip.
One of the very best female rock singers and one of the top female rock guitarists.
Amazing! Never seen this live performance before!
I was 14 and just got into skateboarding and KISS was my favorite band. Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy then Van Halen a year or 2 later. Heart was definitely on the 8 track cruising around town with my buddies too.
Iconic rhythm lick! Totally bad ass! The drumming on those first few albums, inspired my playing! Heart used to cover a lot of Zepplin, and you can hear it in their songs and their performances! Mushroom records, forever!🎊
Dammm,,i forget how Beautiful AW was back in da days ❤❤❤
She’s still gorgeous for an older woman
Fantastic 👍🏼 makes me wish I could time travel and watch them in concert during their early days ☺️
Ann & Nancy are like the Xena and Gabrielle of rock \m/
Whan an electric performance! Man their catalog has aged well.
Can’t get this song out of my mind 👏💯👏
Michael Derosier, one if my fave drummers ever. So heavy. And them ladies...wow, they were my crush!
I had two older sisters , so I heard a lot of Heart , Elton John , Fleetwood Mac .
We would walk to the foosball hall down the street . Great times and great music. I can still hear the bell bottoms swooshing and the flips flopping as we walked.
They still have it for sure glad to see them recently. Thank you for posting this!
Wow! Heart was my first real concert when I was 15. We were by the stage when Howard Leese handed me a red guitar pick which i still have. So cool! -- Last year, I saw the band Heart by Heart and met Steve Fossen and Michael Derosier. Great memories and super sweet guys. -- If I could sing like anyone in the world, it would be like Ann. She's the BEST woman singer EVER in my book!
Finally live!! The Mellotron is there!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gives me chills!
Biggest voice in the industry...Nu from Oz
I saw them the summer of 77 they were awesome. The ladies ahhhhhh.
Truly awesome performance. Heart as one of the best rock bands of the 70s!!! Thank you, Midnight Special Archives!!!
