  • nice hammond organ

  • Guitarist has a tantrum at 01.37!

  • is it me !! or is the guitarist !! a lot up his own arse ?

  • where can i find this song in studio version? please answer, i listened this earlier with my dad on the record player :)

  • @yacopsae1994 The songs was published on the album "Watch" from 1978. You can also find it on several "Best of" compilations.

  • the header says 1999, but could it be 2009? I saw this line up as support to status quo, the singer is excellent, and the band were superb.

  • @mark22160 This was recorded in 1999 with John Trotter on Drums. He left the band in early 2000. In 2009 you saw the current drummer Jimmy Copley on stage.

  • Davy's on the road again, wearing women's clothes again! :D

  • @PilesDriver xdand your telling that totaly happy :D xd

  • dunno, it used to be Mike D'Abo

  • @hajdul Thanks, i read it now. And see it in his Videos:

  • @ulliboll

    Noel McCalla

  • 1:37 ?? hahahaha

  • @huso0123 I think he says "monitors!?", indicating that he can't hear his own guitar.

  • The many different Manfred Mann-constellations were all class-acts.

  • This other guy singing is real good. And this is also live :) nice job.

  • new singer ok? but the keyboard solo was ok but still kind of sucked!! did'nt even use the MINI MOOG W.T.F. thats the guys signiture!!!

  • And sadly to say: Mc Calla has left the Band after more than 10 years :-( and had to be replaced within a very short time. Sadly, the only one Manfred couild find was a popper :-(( with a everyones voice :-(((((( But I enjoyed every single of the 30+ concerts of MMEB with Mc Calla!

  • And sadly to say: He has left the Band :-( and was replaced by a popper :-(( with a everyones voice :-((((((

  • If anyone's still interested, . . . . . . the singer's name is Noel McCalla

  • Mick Rogers is on guitar.

    That singer is really good.

  • Whos on guitar?

  • Great singing, very true to the original. A classic...

  • So lovely Musik without Chris Thomson.. Great!!!

  • echt cool....in meinem nächsten Leben werde ich Mann und Vollblutmusiker!

    Mein Vater war es - ich durfte es nie sein!

  • If you'd like to hear more of Noels voice, check out the album "Small Creeps day" by Mike Rutherford.

  • What a great singer!

  • Comment removed

  • wot a voice! they dont make tunes like this anymore, i can understand the words!

  • @ulliboll The name of the singer is Noel McCalla. He was a member of the " Manfred Manns Earth Band" till 2009- he i one of the best soulsinger I ever heart. Sorry of my english... I am German ;o)

  • Wow!!!! How good is this?

  • There ARE no equivalent bands these days; that's why people are looking back, listening to music that once was....and still IS! Thank God!

  • @ulliboll His name is Noel Mc Calla.

  • Одна из любимых групп

  • saw them live somewhen round 2001....... absolutely fantastic!

  • Nice song:)

  • hopelijk spelen ze dit nummer ook op 6-3-2010 in de pul in uden wat is het toch een gaaf nummertje

  • They played it a million times but it's just like the first time: brilliant. And I love their long live Versions!!

  • Dear friend . This video is from 1999 . There was no Moog Voyager in those days. What you see is the one and only , the good old Minimoog.

  • Noel McCalla is doing a great job here. He's hitting all the high notes and the performance has power and soul. Well done indeed !!!

  • The drummer has a beautiful head of hair!!!!!!!!!!!......oh, and I love this version of this tune!

  • Cool as fuck! Where are the equivalent bands these days???? They dont exist quite simply!

  • Great performance... as always at MM live gigs...

    Noel Mc Calla ist great too!

    Thanks for posting this video!

  • Please, can somebody post the studioversion of that great song? Don't like the live vids!

  • wot a classic !

  • This evening Manfred mann live.. YEAH.. i am truly looking forward to it.. :D

  • When I met Manfred Mann by person he was very gentle and kind to me. He even told the security guy to let me talk to him. I know he doesn't like the crowds. I can understand that. But who cares as long as he plays the keyboards the way he does. Long live Manfred M.!

  • I know that Chris Thompson is THE voice for the Earth's Band, but I think Noel Mc Calla is a GREAT singer. Brilliant performance. I love it.

  • Much agreed! Noel is a VERY good singer, but I don't believe that anyone can even come close to Chris Thompson! He is THE VOICE!

  • wow

  • Go john Go!

    I am luck enough to be working with John Trotter who was their drummer.

  • I have followed this band for 30 years, Chris Thomson is a hard act to follow, but boy does this guy run him close.

    I Love this band and this line up,shame about John trotter leaving though, one of the best drummers in the world at the moment, and now living near me in Australia.

  • yeah! i have heard this from quite a few people.Maybe because he is from South Africa? their all two faced tossers who are up their own arses.Shame cause their a great band, Hey Mannfred Grow up you old tosser,you will never be bigger than the music.

  • Re: Grade A assole Shame if he is -  I grew up with MMEB and MM always portrayed himself as a "caring" personality thru his misic and the politics in S.A at the time. Respect your first-hand view, so thanks for the insight. Noel's a star tho!

  • Douglas, I totally agree with you, in as much as anybody who fought the Apartheid regime is a decent guy in my eyes; but myself (along with others who have met/worked with Manfred) have always found him to be a very bitter and unhappy man.He hates journalists with a passion! Great music, though....

  • What does it matter as long as he makes such great music? Artists are quite often assholes, that doesn't change anything about their work. Even if he were a supporter of apartheid, his music wouldn't change. Compare Eric Clapton's dubious ideas, as a blues guitarist, he is still God...

  • I met him at a gig in edinburgh in the 70's and he could not have been nicer. He chatted to me for 20 mins about his various projects and was an absolute gentleman.

  • Comment removed

  • I agree with nutopianman...Chris Thompson was a better vocalist. This is a great video though.

  • best version is budapest

  • CHRIS THOMPSON was BETTER than....

  • Makes no fucking difference.....does he enhance the band or not? That's the question. OK he sounds fine, i just think he has a hard act to follow, that's all that detracts!

  • He actually looks kind of mixed.

    Probably has a lot of Irish and Native American in him.

  • The best singer they ever had!

  • puuh, what a bombastic voice! Remembers me a bit to Tony Christie in his younger years. Very unusual that an artist performs in a more pretentious way of singing than he does in the original studio version!

    One of the best voices I've heard for a very long time

  • you should see him (and them) live - really great!

  • Dude... The word is BLACK! Don't know where you're from, but NOBODY uses that word anymore!!! His name is Noel McCalla

  • dont you deny him his racial origin and his rights as a negro. They have a right for their own identity and self determination.

    Seems you have been taught censorship of peoples identity

  • Very good live band - and the singer is just a nice and grounded guy!

  • One of the best songs of all time. awesome band!

  • awesome!!!!!this is what trips are all about

  • one of the best livebands i`ve EVER seen! just fabulous!

  • awesome, what a fabulous vocalist. Thanks for putting that one up.

  • Thanks for another great one of MMEB!
