Marshall Tucker This Ol' Cowboy 1992 Toy Caldwell

[joeguy02]

Southern rock will never die.

[brokenseatbelt]

toy played with Allman brothers back in the day

[SuperJohnnyjoe]

OMG-This band, who I have followed since 1978- still makes me have chills! They are better than the Allman Bros. -sorry-they are..

[auntwayne]

 I have never seen this video of Toy.

[WindsonDantas]

These musicians honorably replaced the other guys! Where are these guys today, to warn that Doug has to call them back

[countrytar]

No Toy no MTB,and thats a fact.

[rosesredvioletsblue]

Fabulous. Thank you, for the share, John. 

5*

the FLUTE just brings a whole new level and tempo to music we dont see enough of the flute in modern music. Music without the flute is like music without rythm guitar or music without the drums. This song really kicks it at 6:35

Man I love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[StewieFavre]

i like this version way better than the studio.

[topherztoyz]

Great camera work, and gutair and drums.. my type of jazz... too bad .. I saw them at biker week in Mesa, Az.. 2010 and totaly different band..dissapointing

[noleit]

THE best rendition of this song I've heard. Does anyone know if this track is on any of their CDs?

[bkc1997]

song ranks among my all time top 10 . A song I play when I am bummed out. Never so this clip before, love the faster pace, Truly a moving and entertaining and uplifting song for broken hearted old cowboys and cowgirls. Helped mend my broken heart.

[jsbud333]

the bassist is badass

[jackoshaw]

this is from a VHS they produced at Cabin Fever records. My wife and I saw this version of Marshall Tucker many times. Rusty Milner was an incredible guitarist. They were definitly on the top of their game, in the 90's I am so glad I got to see them do this song live!

[0321usmc1]

@jackoshaw Hey Jack, this is by far the best cut MTB ever made of this tune. I have not been able to get it downloaded to my IPOD... is it available for purchase anywhere ? What about the VHS..is it available ? Can you help?

Great video. The lead singer is copying Boz Scaggs' vocal stylings a little too much, but all in all a nice version.

[Intelvipers]

Great Vid!! The music quality is outstanding. Miss this music and it is great to hear it and see that there are others out there that appreciated good sounds. I am a drummer at heart and this is an outstanding vid. Was this out of a particular concert that was recorded. If so, what is the title. Worth getting!!!!!

[rosco1776]

There's a tear in my eye thinking there will be no more music from all these great bands! One band I wished I had seen live. :-(

Thanks for leaving us some much great music!! :-)

[TheLonedaddy]

I played my harmonica with the guys that are doin the band ....2000 i think at the lake of the ozarks in mo.

beautiful i'll never forget it.sittin on the bed of my truck wither bikers and cops and by standers just enjoying the day....sweet.the flute player was like 20!ha!

[beersplease]

I was lucky enough to see this band twice while toy was still in the band.one time in a 100000 seat stadium that they ripped down in philadelphia called jfk stadium at a show called the round up. They closed the show. The line up in this order was 38 special,molly hatchet,the allman brothers the outlaws and than tucker. the 2nd time was in a 1500 seat theater in elizabeth NJ called the ritz. Both shows were awesome.

[poppy39nj]

I was at both show you mentioned. Also many other times including the Capitol Theater, Convention Hall in AP, The Pier with CDB, Suntan Lake (after Toy passed). So many great shows and great bands from those days.

[beersplease]

I was only 15 at the round up and 16 at the ritz, did I have the order of the line up correct ? I caught Toy and paul riddle at the skynyrd reunion in nashville in 1987 at the cdb volunteer jam where SRV also showed up. The last time I saw Toy was at the wetlands in NYC opening for the Outlaws,

[Heartlander2]

@beersplease

I was at the TN show too! GREAT concert.

[beersplease]

@Heartlander2 The TN show was 1 of the top shows of all time,I drove 2 days in the rain from the east coast to see the skynrd reunion, Great White and grinderswitch also were there and awesome,cheers

[75surfgirl]

Incredible--I saw them live at the Largo capital center in Maryland back in 1975--They are still the best live band i ever heard-Loved the flute--Missed the fiddle.

[TSaxman74]

I had the distinct pleasure of sharing a cold beer with the original MTB boys back in nineteen hunnert & 75. Almost got me fired from my back stage security job. Worth it.

[SeattleGrant]

Great song! And a great recording.

At 6:36 check out the beautifully smooth handoff from the piano to the flute. The sound of one flows right into the other.

These guys were tight.

[domm1999]

tellittothedevil...Thanks for posting this amazing jam session, RIP Toy Caldwell. If MTB is not inducted into the R&R Hall Of Fame that committee is smoking crack. Then again I would say the same about Grand Funk not being in there.

[wildbunch]

One of the best 9 minutes you'll ever spend.

[skydog81]

Nasvhille studio muscians that`s not the Caldwell`s band dog and pony show, Doug cashin in!

[jaydollah]

the lead guitarist playing the Les Paul (i guess rusty?) Looks like Dickey Betts did at that time. This is AMAZING. Same kind of thing the Allmans were doing in '92. Thank you so much for posting this!!!

[stevieVantanna]

is Toy even in this?

[stevieVantanna]

this reminds me of George Benson's Breezn'.

[1russian]

s-w-e-e-t!!!..........

[sonnydukes]

these guys rocked it...i used to listen to them all the time in kentucky...who would of ever guessed "southern jazz", but it worked

[12FreeGo]

They were from SC -- What an amazing song... still. These guys were great musicians.

[shawn0123]

That was amazing

[rivergone]

tHESE GUYS SANG THIS SONG SAYING " I GOT TO GET ON BACK TO DALLAS" NOT S.C.

[fatcock143]

You moron ..they must have been playing in S.C..your mom ever let you go to a concert?

[wonkavella]

don cameron is bad.that was a great keyboard solo and the latin backing was great.the drumming is badass too

[wal1004]

this song makes me happy and sad at the same time - where did it all go - so fast - so young - and so damn good

[harley4051]

I agree these guys were awesome

[2tryhard]

This is a classic example of "appearances can be deceiving". These guys always looked like your basic country western band and in actuality they were a bunch of serious jazz musicians! What a fabulous group and so under appreciated. This song is Marshall Tucker at its best

[Galbraith4570]

You got it, pardner....Western Swing mixed with Rock.

[resoblues]

Could hear this song 1000 times and it just gets better and better. Thanks.
