34 year old Croatian here. My old man brought me right, classic rock foundation, grew up in the 90's and thought I was familiar with pretty much everything from that era. I've found this band today and just listened to Hollywood Town Hall and Tomorrow the Green Grass back to back. I haven't been this happy about music since I've listened to Black Crowes first two records for the first time. Funny enough, George Drakoulias produced all four of those records. I just want to share and send these good feelings I have in me right now on this Sunday's evening to all!
Right back at you... Sometimes the simple things in life are the best that this world has to offer. Some good tunes, the laughter of friends, and maybe a beverage to enjoy while we're here. Much peace and love to you and yours...
Danny California's Last Dance.
Yes!
You prolly dont care but if you're bored like me atm then you can watch all the new movies on Instaflixxer. I've been watching with my girlfriend lately =)
@Torin Karter yup, I've been using InstaFlixxer for since november myself :D
Dani California's Last Dance Waiting for the Sun
Someone else used this riff also, can't remember who.
The Jayhawks are absolute masters of their genre.
In addition to the Jayhawks being underrated in almost every way, Gary Louris is terribly ignored as a fine lead guitarist. His leads are always perfect for the song, and the tone that he achieves here is incredible.
I concur.
+Daniel Gunter Right!?
Gary is not only a great guitarist but a formidable songsmith up there with the great ones like Young and Stills....... and Ray Davies of course.
Wow!! So rare to see/hear someone recognize Raymond Douglas Davies as the genius that he is!!
Agree.
Obviously the most underrated group ever. What great songs they penned, almost every one is a gem.
Most underrated group ever? Whatever..
@@mcraft2240 well, one of the most.
I know Tom Petty (R.I.P.) must’ve loved this song.
Good times in the 90's. Wish those days would return.......
Waiting for the sun. No- I am going to it. Following the sun. Shoulda left a month ago.
Yes. We did not know what great days we had in the 1990’s much like American had in the 1950’s.
The music scene had changed from the cheesy ass 1980 big hair bands to Alternative.
No because there was no TH-cam in 1992- but I had more hair back then 😆
@@sartainja yea the 80s sucked in so many ways. The 90s and the 70s were the best decades for pop culture type shit like music, movies, etc
Lots of late nights studying in '93 playing this album in the background over and over... takes me right back. Fabulous!
I immediately fell in love with The Jayhaws when I first heard this song
+Emmo Hernández I can see why...
OnlyA Northernsong They're great ;D
Jayhawks
This tune is timeless, sounds like it could have been recorded yesterday
So, I kept my spirits high🙏
Ahh yes! That 70's revival thing in the 90's!
Gary's sound is totally unique and unequaled. The man does not get enough credit, and that's not even taking in his vocal abilities.
In 2007 or something like that i saw them in Paris in a little concert place ...it was just incredible...we were 150 maybe...sit on the floor with the band on a little stage, not too high so it was as we were friends in a rehearsal room with them somewhere in USA....!!!!..
First stint working & living on my own, summer of '93. Small cold basement suite in a small simple town. Listened to this album repeatedly. When I listen to it today I immediately shiver and feel lonely.
Like many others this song in this band marked point in my life that I'm always happy to revisit. This band has always been underrated and there's the song writing abilities should be way ahead of many of their contemporaries
Ladies gentleman and boys and girls welcome to Fenway Park....they had influences and they influence others. That's the symbiotic relationship of rock and roll. Sit back and enjoy
I will have to listen more closely to Dani California and Mary Jane's Last Dance now. In any case, the guitar on this is very sweet.
My introduction to this Twin Cities band back in the early 90's. Cheers!
Great song, great band. That guitar solo definitely had a "Starway to Heaven" vibe :))
I still remember when I bought this record! How much time! What a fantastic music !!
I do as well.
Still got the album on vinyl, think it is their best.
Nevada California is one of my all time favorites.
I seriously thought this was Carly Simon in a band when she was younger. I haven't heard of this group before. If it wasn't for the soul patch I would still be wondering. Wild!
I thought it was Tom Petty Mary Jane at first LOL
@@williamnord1115 Yeah, that chord progression is common to a lot of songs. Someone mentioned Danny California by the red hot chili peppers. I'm sure there are lots more. Hard to pick which one at first!
It's so kool that The Jayhawks have been able to put out these re-issues in recent years!!!
Unbelievably great song!
got to see them last night, SOOOOOOOOO great, words cannot describe!
Great concert tonight in Brussels!!!!
“It was not lost on me” favorite part
Saw and heard them in Gothenburg, Sweden last summer for the first time. Really moved me, I'm a fan now!
Waiting for the Sun is one of the top 10 best songs I ever heard
Love this track and without it, Dani California wouldn't exist.
@@SobrietyandSolace or Last Dance With Mary Jane....which was accused of ripping off this song then Dani California was accused of ripping off Mary Jane. Rick Rubin produced both Dani Cali and Mary Jane, and the keyboardist from Jawhawks played both on this song and Mary Jane live
i feel like alot of the biggest artists of all times top hits were probably ripped off bands with smaller names and power in the industry
“It was not lost on me”.
Country-Rock Masterpiece. Sounds like early 70's Dillards.
I think you have something there. I loved the Dillards from the first time I saw them on the old Any Griffith show. Saw them in person circa 1968 opening for the Byrds (The Byrds first gig without Gene Clark).
Superb song. Great American rock band. Louris is one of my all time favorite singers (although he does sound a bit like a male Carly Simon!).
oh sweet jesus... he DOES sound like Carly Simon!
I read this before hearing it and thought "what does that even mean". Then I heard it.
Please God, let the Jayhawks get inducted into the Minnesota Music Hall Of Fame(May 8, 2018). Cheers!
What?? They haven't been inducted already? That's criminal
@@RobCoates1 You're darn tootin'.
This song inspired Pettys "Mary Jane's Last Dance" which inspired the Chilli Peppers for "Dani California". The Jajhawks where once a support act for Petty in 1991 or 1992.
yes, I hear it at the very beginning. Hope Petty gave them some Dosh.
@@humanearthling1484 the keyboard player for the jayhawks plays piano on the petty song so it was combined effort between both groups.
It was in 92 and Tom definitely was inspired by this song but we can’t say the chili peppers were inspired by Tom bc I’ve wrote many songs then was like wait this sounds like this famous song lol when I was 17 like almost 20 years ago I’ve been playing guitar for about a year or so self taught and that’s how I learned Foo fighters everlong bc I was making a song then realized it was everlong and also same with few other songs
Inspired......
@@DrRawBalls_TheDummy here, you need these: .......
I'll be damned! It sure as hell sounds like Tom Petty's Mary Jane's Last Dance, borrowed heavily from this song. I don't think Dani California, however, sounds like Last Dance.
Yeah, the tom petty song is almost the same in parts... way to close.
Same keys player on both songs...
@@TiminSE definitely made some agreement behind the scenes. It's the same chords for groove. But... I love that they did. Would never have heard this great song otherwise.
How does dani california not sound like mld to you?
Yeah Tom Petty used a E cord in his song, and only The Jayhawks use the E cord in their songs. Come on muh dudes the songs might share some progressions and style, but Mary Janes Last Dance is a different song end of story. Plagiarism is a slippery slope when it comes to music, and if you look hard enough you will always find something that "stole" from something else.
After the first time I 've heard this song I went out and bought the cd that was the day after
Great song! Absolutely classic:)
Great song ! It reminde me the good old time gone's
Love this band!
great tune from a band that that exploded with brilliance over a short time, , petty copied the riff (I think he has said so), petty has a much more substantial catalog. they're both great. why can't we all get along :)
Kevin Burgess nope, I believe Petty proved he wrote the song before this; some old rehearsal footage was unearthed. Both great songs of course.
Great album from top to bottom.
A classic song by a great band!
At first flash of Eden
We race down to the sea
Standing there on freedom's shore
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Can you feel it
Now that Spring has come
That it's time to live in the scattered sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun.
Waiting for the sun
Waiting,, waiting,, waiting,, waiting, waiting,, waiting,, waiting,, waiting
lovely!
I always thought so. ALSO they opened for Petty on this tour while also headlining some gigs on off nights. I saw one such show. So, pretty strong case for influence.
I hate to admit I think this but ...Petty should have been opening for the Jayhawks.
FACT: Petty's riff was written in 1988 and 1989 and was never finished for Full Moon Fever and shelved because he hadn't finished it and was leaning towards more acoustic songs. It was brought up again when he needed a song to put on his '93 Greatest Hits thing for MCA because he couldn't wait to leave the label. If anything the Jayhawks stole the riff from Petty. HIlarious that people think Petty is running around trying to lift material from the Jayhawks and I like the Jayhawks.
Don't get better than this!
I was waiting for the sun
Then I walked on home alone
What I didn't know
Was he was waiting for you to fall
So I never made amends
For the sake of no one else
For the simple reason
That he was waiting for you to fall
It was not lost on me
It was not lost on me
Walkin' on down the road
Looking for a friend to handout
Somethin' might ease my soul
So I kept my spirits high
Entertaining passers-by
Wrapped in my confusion
While he was waiting for you to fall
It was not lost on me
It was not lost on me
Walkin' on down the road
Looking for a friend to handout
Somethin' might ease my soul
It was not lost on me
It was not lost on me
Walkin' on down the road
Walkin' on down the road
Walkin' on down the road
Walkin' on down the road
Plucking awesome song and harmonies.
I had the pleasure of seing the jayhawks a couple times in there hay day at first ave.
banda maravilhosa uma das minhas prediletas
I listen evday.just a roadtrip. TOff.40yrs ago.wow nuff said!!!
Probably the only country rock group I liked. 🤠
Rick Rubin had a killer lineup of artists on his 'Def' American label back in the day. He sure knew how to pick 'em.... Anyway great tune and band.
Marc Olson…killer songwriter
How have I-never heard of this band? Wow... they’re fantastic!!!
It happens! I am now really enjoying Back Berry Smoke!
Just heard this on Sirius underground garage. Love it!!!
Best kept secret in rock.
Glad to know that someone else caught that!
I love this song ❤
These guys are pretty good!
Great song love it.
His glasses look like the kind my grandmother wore.
🎶 Mary Jane’s Last Dance 🎶
One of my favorite albums.😊
This band made music and captured it on laser. Today they make sharts and capture it digitally.
There was just as much shitty music in the 90s as there is today.
@@Dilapsor yeah but I was much younger back then. :P
@@Dilapsor i kinda doubt it. Simply because there is just way more music in general these days than ever. Which will mean more shitty music naturally. More good music too, but its about the ratio. If we just focus on mainstream for example....what most ppl know...theres much more shitty to good music now than there was in the 90s. Now the 90s have several diff eras, some being better than others, but in the 90s even the mainstream acts still had talent as bands and truly made and could play good music where as today its much more "engineered" if you will. In all honestly, musicians that actually play music arent even really needed, but they need someone to be famous and have celebs lol. Any possible thing you could imagine could be created by one person on a computer. The producers these days are the actual musicians.
They have a nice sound. Kinda like Blue Rodeo.
I can hear how Tom Petty was influenced by this song!
And on Def American like the Black Crowes, their Ilk seems to be no more, this generation
"Last dance with Mary Jane, One more time to kill the pain...". Funny that Petty's camp sued RHCP for "stealing this riff" from HIM, on "dani california" I think.
@@LetsGoMetsGo33 no he never sued. He said pop songs can sound alike and he didn't care.
@@LetsGoMetsGo33 Yeah, that never happened. Tom specifically said that "it's rock and roll... everybody steals from everybody else" implying that he didn't care at all, as a previous comment explained.
@@scottmatznick6461 @yours truly. I stand corrected. I didn’t make it ip, it was reported a few places, but happy to see it’s BS. i’m a Tom Petty fan, RIP.
When I think about it the song reminds me of Barclay James Harvest.
Love em
so so goood!!
구우우우우우

어쩜!
Weird al looks young as hell
Well I don't know, but I've been told.
You never slow down, you'll never grow old.
Tired of screwing up, tired of going down.
Tired of myself, tired of this town.
Oh my my oh hell yes, you gotta put on that party dress. . .
For whatever reason, the Twins / Astros FS1 playoff broadcast decided to play the beginning of this song after an inning ended.
Great Band !! Wan of de best in the world .
Oh my my oh hell yeah.
I drive by that old school house every chance I get out of respect.
This made me wish I could play any instrument, but, well, when the moment comes I know I'll go into my grave with no records of me having got that far...
BilisNegra buy a cheap guitar
It's never too late. Get a guitar or a keyboard and give it hell. You won't regret it.
The rhythm and cord progression of this song seems to be more similar to stairway to heaven than Mary Jane's last dance. In fact at about 2:31 it sounds like a simplified version of the stairway to heaven solo.
Wow I agree
Cherry picking at its finest. I agree that the chord progression during the section of "Waiting for the Sun" that you indicate does match that of the "Stairway to Heaven" solo, but the rest of the song does not.
@@trigonzobob I may not have gotten my point across in this post. I was only pointing out that it has more of a similarity to stairway to heaven than it does Mary Jane's last dance. In my opinion none of these songs sound similar enough to warrant saying that any of these artist stole from one another.
FACT: Petty's riff was written in 1988 and 1989 and was never finished for Full Moon Fever and shelved because he hadn't finished it and was leaning towards more acoustic songs. It was brought up again when he needed a song to put on his '93 Greatest Hits thing for MCA because he couldn't wait to leave the label. If anything the Jayhawks stole the riff from Petty. HIlarious that people think Petty is running around trying to lift material from the Jayhawks and I like the Jayhawks.
Unless Petty released the song before The Jayhawks recorded Waiting for the Sun I’d like to know how they stole it from him. Use your head.
This band should have been better recognized
Mary Janes last riff
Man this sounds like Minneapolis
Beautiful tune. Maybe I like it because the singer's voice isn't autotuned and phony.
+Scott Struble Yeah, totally.
Just like the vast majority of music today...
I think I stood in those shoes in the early seventies on my way to Tom p.s house in Gainesville FL. I never waited for anyone to fall but. rise . my friend was maybe fourteen years old we hitchhiked we got picked up by some elderly strait cat driven a Benz it was cloudy like on the ground my friend having only a fender mustang git says pull over the drive r said there's nothing out here but cows! my friend said ya drop us here we proceeded to Gainesville with a bag schrooms anyway waiting for the rain.d Cervin.
Amazing, and reads like a poem.
The hell with the rest of the world, just let these guys keep creating. 4 decades?
The starting riff sounds a little like Dani California by RHCP. Aint it?
the jayhawks wrote this, petty made mary jane's dance from it, rhcp copied it, kenny chesney copied it and a few others. there are riffs from this song that also have similarities to other tom petty songs. but the jayhawks were the first.
more stairway to heaven...to my ears. the lead in this is reminiscent of stairway also. there are only so many chords, ppl.
Other way around Gautam.
❤❤❤❤❤
multicaruana took the words right off my keyboard
Would you please come play in The Black Hills? Deadwood Jam maybe?
i believe petty is quoted as saying he stole it :)
From what I heard, they opened up for Tom Petty on tour

Great song, indeed... A link streak from Vsauce brought me here!
Benmont Tench (Heartbreakers) on the keyboards. Guess he didn't make the video shoot...
The Jayhawks > Tom Petty > RHCP
I like all of them, but recognise that without this song, we wouldn't have gotten the other two.
Foxy Lady..... And on & on it goes....
They really lost something after Ken Callahan's departure.
Which song came out first?
Jayhawks….
I like most the part where he sings:
California, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California, show your teeth
She's my priestess
I'm your priest
mama was a papa
Чё пацаны, Топа
Зашëл сюда, чтобы увидеть, что здесь есть такой коммент)))
Miraculous flight of hawks
" Danny California´s last dance".
It's sad when you think of solo artist and groups that become mainstream and then hear others that have true talent. Not to mention sound good live never really capture the audiance.
Minneapolis 1991? or there about
