  • Great song!

  • Sweet Jesus

  • Great song, I really like this live!

    When was this recorded?

    Damm good ditty!

    this makes me feel my southern heritage!

  • Hey Bro, I'm not even from the South & I feel my Southern Heritage. Whoop Whoop!!!!

  • That crowd was loving it!

  • good song love to see those rebel flags in the crowd. those kids were kinda young looking. at least their on the right path keep it southern in 2010

  • The only time you see Toy Caldwell use a thumb pick.

  • the only time you ever see toy with ANY kind of pick

  • a rockn' country song from the good ol' days..

  • MTB's greatness was in the multiple instrumentaion used. the flute was popular in 1776 and 200 years later in the context of these songs it really resonates the spirt of who we are.

  • Great music is timeless!

  • gotta love it it's so awsome the flute and all the lyrics totally awesome

  • Clint Eastwood movie theme if I,v ever heard one !

  • Bassflyer....Marshall Tucker was an Awesome Southern Rock Band...in the class with Skynard, The Band, Molly Hatchett....we'll never hear music like this again in our life time. :(

  • Yes we will..might take a while is all, but you'll be here when it happens

  • I certainly hope so. I like the new stuff like Linkin Park, Staind, NIN, Tool, all the bands from Sirius Octane, but still listen to the old guys also. Maybe it's just nostalgia. lol

  • Dude your makin me sad but its true all was lost somewhere in the 80s ! Skynyrd, The Brothers ,good old music will keep getting better as new music gets worse .

  • I remember this from high school.. have got to say this is the first time I actually saw their video.. ..lol.. pretty cool..

  • They were WAY more than country! :^)

  • 1981 New Jersey.

  • anyone know what year this was recorded?

  • @MaxBogus  prolly 1987 or so

  • Great song

  • I'm not a country fan, but this song is pretty cool.

    I first heard this song years ago as a young wrestling fan when Tracy Smohers would come out to this song.

  • honey, this ain't country, its SOUTHERN BOOGIE!

  • If there is it a steel guitar in it. it's country in my book.

  • Given that argument, is that why grass leads to blues?

  • See what I did there?

  • Also southern boogie is bands like ZZ Top, Skynard, The Outlaws, Molly Hatchett, Allman Brothers, 38. Special, and Blackfoot.

  • Get the rope.

  • Dude they freakin rock

  • Dude they rock

  • Best concert ever New Years Eve 1974 @ the Armidillo in Austin. MTB opening for Charlie Daniels both bands on stage at midnight jammin. Cost $5 memories unbelivable. Pass to the left<<<<

  • @bobmac101 420 pass to the keft

  • Nuthin' like some good ol' Marshall Tucker.

  • RIP Caldwell Bros!

  • Totally awesome song. Have some friends who do this. Every time they play I ask them for this. Awesome song.

  • Check out the book Enemy Women about the wifes and daughters of Missouri fighting back against the union hoard...

  • went to concert in ga was very bad doug gray only sang 3 songs talked to much forgot words. alot of cussin fans out.band played good but to much noise from doug not famous marshall tucker style

  • You have to remember the last original member (Jerry Eubanks) died in 96. Tommy and Toy Caldwell were Marshal Tucker, when Tommy died from injuries suffered in an accident in 1980 the band was never the same. Toy's vocals without Tommy's background vocals really weren't the same and the band split up in 1983. One of my favorite bands......

  • Jerry Eubanks is not dead. He did leave the band in 96. Paul Riddle is still alive & sits in with the Allmans occasionally. So there r 3 members left. George died in 2007.Toy is my favorite guitar player of all time.

  • toy & tommy caldwell, along with George McCorkle are the ones who have croaked.

  • All american!

  • saw then in Carbondale iL in 1977 & again in Cape Girardeau mo 2004--love this band!!

  • I saw the MTB and Toy in Charlotte, NC in the early 1980's. They were to play on the roof top of the Adam's Mark Hotel in one of those after 5:00pm gigs, but it started raining and they moved into a large dining room. I was six feet away and the notes filled my beer mug. It was a 5 star experience!

  • They should have more rooftop concerts.

  • Wow! Great tribute to their "fallen brothers"!! They would be so very proud of you!! God bless, keeping the spirit alive!!

  • They played on Grandfather Mt. in linville nc a few years back for earth day

  • i saw him in like june hes sounds really rough

  • Right next to apple pie. God Bless America!!

  • They were wearing mtv shirts-the band and the audience to protest the fact that mtv wasn't playing their videos, even though they were very popular.

  • let's all remember that toy was a vietnam vet and GOD bless em all

  • I saw Marshall Tucker in October, 1983 in Fayetteville, N. C. with this exact lineup when I was stationed at Ft. Bragg, N.C. in the army. Opened up for The Charlie Daniels Band. Their encore song was " Can't You See" which Charlie came out and played his fiddle with them on. It was a great show by both bands.

  • saw them in colombia S.C. in the summer of 1972, saw them this summer in minnesota 2009, they r still touring, its a hard way to make a livin, love em !!!

  • Singer is wearing a MTVshirt, little did he know what would be in store for us...

  • Saw them at Red Rocks with Pure Prairie League in the early '80s with my buddy Gary York. They were one fine band.

  • i first seen them in audtin texas in 73

  • Snoop Dog loves this White Bread stuff.

  • I went to a party my girlfriend was having,the HA shot up the place. This song was on

  • damn did they get anyone why did they do it? i live in north carolina and i gotta couple buddys who ride so ive ben in some places with them guys to and they aint no fuckin joke!!!

  • I live in Charlotte N. C. and this happened on King's Mountain.Wyteboy you may know where I'm talking about.

  • damn dude no fuckin shit!!! i know it exactly were your talkin about wow man that shits got me trippin

  • Cool place to hang

  • One of the best-ever songs that the MTB ever did !! Especially the studio-recorded version .. which naturaly allows a few extra sideline added-value backgrounds in the production & arrangement. But this on-stage live version is also first-class too !!

  • Son maravillosos, cuanto me han echo sentir siempre, que psada!

  • I just love this band  started listening to them in the 70"s

  • I love this band and how different members sing the songs.

  • Doesnt get much better......does it?

  • '72 the year I graduated high school. Putting together a CD for our Pop Scene Exchange Club at work and MTB will definetly be on it.

  • Stranger to see the 20 something couple enjoying the music in the opening minute .;-) They weren't even born when it came out.

  • So strange to see Doug wearing an MTV shirt.

  • I still love this song, even after 34 years! :-)

  • Great band !!!i love this song

  • God bless these boys

  • pedal steel guitar

  • Comment removed

  • This is probably a dumb question, but what is that weird instrument that guy is playing??

  • a flute

  • Of course I know what a flute was. I think I was referring to the pedal steel guitar, as I now know.

  • lol, i know, i was just joking

    :)

  • How oh how I miss this Brand of Music! I wish I was back in the 70s again.

  • Check out Blackberry Smoke from Atlanta GA!! You won't be disappointed - they are carrying the flag!! They have a great website and videos here on youtube!!

  • This was always one of my favorite MTB Tunes, southern rock at its finest. Reminds me of living up north and the late night bonfires blasting this, I miss those days. Why cant people listen to this...this is actual "music", unlike the rap and pop shit thats infesting everyones brains. And this is coming from a 17 year old girl

  • dont worry,there are a lot of us listening this southern masters...

  • i love you

  • Well said Ms Muffin - you understand :-)

  • looking back on the 70's, im almost ashamed to have been born in the 90's lol

  • I know right!! D:

  • I am so happy to have been a teen ager in the mid-70's. I cut my teeth on classic metal bands like Sabbath & Deep Purple, but have always had an appreciation for southern rock bands like Marshall Tucker. So many good bands back during that time. Disco did suck though.

  • Back when MTV actually stood for MUSIC TELEVISION.

  • MTB was BIG, from Spartanburg, S.C. untill Toy Caldwell wreaked his Toyota LandRover at the corner of Pine St. in front of the Sugar & Spice Drive-In, hit his head on the curb due too a roll bar failure. Marshall Tucker has never been the same since.

  • Tommy wrecked his Jeep, not Toy. Toy died of heart failure just a few years ago. Tommy died in the summer of 1980.

  • Are you familiar with the Marshall Tucker Band?

  • Why can't we have some more?

  • Lets get back to the white mans music!!

  • There IS NO white mans music. THere is ONLY good music and bad music. THis is good music

  • thats sounds horribly offensive

  • look at the guy lifting a joint to his mouth at 3:47

  • i played with a band that opened up for these guys in Roanoke, Va. back in 1997. ;)

  • This show is sponsored by....

    milwaukee's best! lol!

  • The beast..lol!!

  • Marshall Tucker, Skynyrd, Charlie Daniels, Outlaws, Molly Hatchet - wow - those were some bands and some great music!

  • theyre bad now i went to see them like a week ago and the singer sucked. miss the old days though

  • They were good then and great now. So sad to loose so many of the original guys. Toy was an incredible guitarist.

  • amazing. go southern rock.

  • I just had to hear it again Toy is makin that ole steel cry!!!

  • Perfect song...and performers.

  • sorry you all i am a rookie  my bad

  • la vera essenza del southern rock.

    Fantastic

  • It doesn't get any better than those Tucker boys, they make me proud to be a Carolinian, even though I'm from the North one...Awesome !!!!!

  • Hell Yeah!!!  Black Mountain Area---Cherokee.

  • Doug Gray never gets older looking. I think he cut a deal with the devil. :)

  • I caught the tambourine, still have it somewhere in a barn

  • I love this song and the group

  • look at that leisure suit wilkie is wearing...

    what a front. some things never change.

  • Hes wearing an MTV shirt....Wouldnt ever catch that trashy shit music channel playing anything like real music these days...

  • Haha true that! except for the fact that you wouldn't even catch them playing any kind of music related thing on there

  • Damn that drummer is beating the shit out of those drums.

  • I grew up with the Wilkies and the Eubanks.

  • Exxxxxxxcelente musica.... uma obra prima...

    The Marshall Tucker Band forever !!

  • Fantastic, they were great!

  • I still Play tier songs today I saw them live in about early 70's never quit listning love em.Southern Rock and proud of it!

  • hey people..I'm the same 'age' as these guys, and when I heard their first album I bought EVERYTHING they put out..played it and learned it on my old gibson guitar..

    yeh..nothin' compares today, and I'm not being critical of new century..just know what these guys brought us all in the mid-70's can't be compared. enjoy, sing it..learn it..be it.

  • I agree, today's music is not the same! Today they sing of anger and depression and it all sounds the same!

  • Comment removed

  • Boy. This was the SONG!!

  • mmmm 2:04 .......

    That's the whole point of playin music!

  • Now this is good music its a shame their isn't any stuff like this now

  • Just dosen't get any better anymore. The 70's bands rule. MTV, pop dat cop, chillin wit my hoes, fuck all of that shit.

  • yeah, i got nuthin againts any kinda music though, but hiphop gets wayyyyyyyyy too much fuckin air time. thats all i hear 80% of the time on the radio too.

    i'm not even impressed by satelite radio either.

  • youtube is about the only way i can find music i wanna listen to. which is strange because youtube was originally about makin your own vids, but it has become alot more than just that. lol

  • You got that right! With bands like Marshall Tucker, Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Eagles. Too much funk these days.

  • Hey, what about the Outlaws?

  • Don't know if you remember or where around then, but I was just a kid. No mtv, loved cops because they protected us, and didn't know what a ho was, or pussy for that matter. Your comment is great

  • In the times when MTV worth it...now it's pure fuckin' shit!!!...

  • They lost something after Toy was gone, just not the same. Still much better than most anything around...

  • You can't beat The Marshall Tucker band. Too bad many of them are dead. :(

  • its a steel guitar

  • what instrument is that that dude in the yellow shirt is playing?

  • pedal steel guitar

  • Good grief, I miss this music!

  • Nice song, that lead singer has a great southern rock/country sound. When was this concert filmed? They don't have that kind of music anymore do they? I wish some bands would try. Just a great mellow sound.

  • eehaa

  • TIMELESS!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Love MTB ~ sure miss Toy.... What a singer/song writer....

    Nothing liked southern fired R/R!!

  • Can't wait to see them at Riverfest in June

  • the real country man

  • Yeah, that guy in the white t-shirt and straw hat is "firing up" on the mountain

  • haha at 3:45 dude is totally hitting a joint or well at least it looks like it . Whatever tho still a good song

  • i have the long island concert they did, last concert with original lineup i think 1980.... on cd... what a ass kickin cd

  • awesome!.. these guys were right on top

  • whats that instrument called that makes the cool noises? synthesizer? i want to learn how to play it.

  • peddle steel guitar

  • Harmonic Steel flat guitar W/ carryover bar , Thats what gives it it's echo sound !!

  • Was this really on MTV?

  • i dont know man i am pretty sure this is southern rock

  • Marshall Tucker, Lynrd Skynrd, Allman Brothers, Charlie Daniels Band are all the beginners of Southern Rock--can't be beat or comproside--unique sounds--not the crap you hear today.

  • When I was 9 years old, someone gave me a cd of that band. that was my very first CD. I enjoyed, but I lost the cd when I was around 13, and forgot their names until now. I couldn't remember their name.

    I just figured out this piece of song is from this band. I am moved...

  • Hey, it doesn't matter what class you put them in, they are in a class all their own. One called pretty damn good.

  • First, these guys sounded WAY, WAY better back in the earlier days when Tommy was alive. They were a lot more into it too. Check the old videos. Secondly, this ain't ROCK of any kind and never was. They'd have gotten pissed if you called them a Southern rock band...so would the Allman Bros. "Southern Rock" started with groups like Skynyrd, Outlaws, 38 special, Molly Hatchet, etc. MTB, CDB, and Allmans were blues, R&B, country, gospel....but NOT Rock! You had to be there and know them I guess.

  • Nonsense !!!!!!!

  • This is strictly your opinion. How much of any kind of rock is rock, honey? This is southern rock. Always was southern rock. And the Allmans and MTB would probably find your comments cute and amusing. Just like all of us do.

  • you know thing about weapons noob

  • nothing like an ak-47 (30 round clip) on full auto..the 44 is probably more accurate though

  • just to hear the sound of there 44 guns.. at that the truth !!

  • He didnt die in a bronco-type vehicle... he was in a Jeep Wrangler...

  • Actually, I think you're both wrong. I read Toyota Land Cruiser, which I always thought was strange, so it stuck in my head. Whatever, he had a great sound on bass.

  • Tommy Caldwell was killed in 1980 in a car wreck on Church Street in Spartanburg, SC. He was driving a Bronco type, old school SUV and swerved to avoid a car that had abruptly stopped right in front of the swim center, south bound for those of you familiar with The Burg. Vehicle tipped and the side of his head hit the ground on the drivers side ultimately killing him. Much love from Spartanburg...

  • Just fabulous. I loved Toy and I miss him. I believe this show was from NJ, even though you see Confederate flags. Great Southern Rock, which is the best rock of all.

  • True, unfortunately, we'll never see it again like this.

  • umm turbomecca? That was really disturbing. Plus- what if it was a girl?

  • absolutely fucking brilliant

  • great fucking hillbilly music.

  • god, you are a narrow minded prick, Do you even appreciate classic rock at all?
