[rrevved]

In December 1981, I went to see the Rolling Stones concert at the New Orleans Superdome. The opening bands were the Neville Bros followed by George Thorogood and the Destroyers . . .

110,000 people.

It was a spectacle!!!

[journey344]

[MiraclesBeliever]

This is definitely a Mardi Gras song...sorry, nuthin bout Lennon...is about a Mardi Gras Indian, who's gone..."never would bow, never would kneel" if you understood the Marid Gras indian tradition you would get it. no one knew 'bout the beatles when the indian were singing this songs in the street....next thing you will say my "big chief got a golden grown" is about paul mccartney! LOL

[inlinefive]

[coolmamac]

oh what harmony and rhythm!

[fbiller1]

..whoever ain't ready better get out de way.

[68Timpe]

Nice music...simply and well played

[shaneu1]

During my New Orleans years, I saw the Nevilles "up close and personal," in venues such as the original Tipitina's, Jimmy's, and The Dream Palace (now "The Blue Nile") dozens of times. This was when they were still what I considered the best "bar band" of all time. I can see that they lose none of their magic performing on a big stage in a concert hall. But I prefer them as I remember: myself pressed up against Tip's stage, people crowded together, everybody doing the amorphous hippie boogie.

[cjthemusicman]

Iko, Iko...one day...

[bulletinman]

The baddest of the bad.

[MrDJROGERS]

SUPERB

[Zizta1]

[voodoochyl]

Why would they ever let Aaron sing when they haveCyril?

[KennBurch]

Have you SEEN Aaron? You gonna be the guy who tells him he doesn't get to sing?

[AliceMarr]

Wonderful video, Ceril is hot as hell too ;)

[AliceMarr]

er..........Cyril :)

[D33veeoss]

John Lennon died?

[KennBurch]

UH...yeah....been awhile since you read the papers?

But this song isn't about him.

[Kaalec]

@D33veeoss John Lennon was murdered outside his New York apartment building in early December 1980. Yes, 1980!!!!!

How could anyone living in the technological world not know that?

[cpjames52]

With every passing year We miss you more & more John Lennon!!! "How I wish you were here"!!!

[devore504]

@cpjames52 what does John Lennon have to do with this song lmao

[cpjames52]

@devore504 listen to the words !! dont you get it?

[devore504]

@ Honey I am from New Orleans this song is about a mardi gras Indian not John Lennon

[ChynaRider]

Dis the real snot!

[1953moedog]

[LiquidGold2]

Awesome!

[randananda]

This incarnation of the Neville Bros. clearly shows how their greatness is hard to capture in the studio.Almost tem minutes of funking genius and you wish it would go on for ten more. Eric Struthers absolutely killin on guitar, too.

[ride395]

I miss my brother Jon ... he died on the battlefield.

[NOLATwangster]

[SparkeyGreenberg]

Sweet and good, the Neville Brothers are a delight.

[ral316]

[enchentez]

HeeHee the bass starts out like Little Feat's "Hate to lose your Lovin' " -- funny how things come around full circle...

[Hacobos]

Superb, bless you for posting. Can you tell me which DVD this is from?
