The Feelies...Glenn Mercer....Higher Ground....

[lutheringram]

higher ground is one of their best songs - and they got a lot of best songs!!!

[MacAggy]

This song simply kicks butt!!!

[lentheman96]

higher grounds of the feelies is the highest level

[universalme]

Eurocope nailed it: quite possibly the most underrated band of all time. Long live the Feelies.

"REM" WISH THEY WERE, "THE FEELIES!"

[Blacktelecaster]

I saw these guys open for REM in 1986, in New HAven, and then again at UCONN in 1988. Fantastic.

[EUROCOPE]

This is quite possibly the most underrated band of all time. I got turned onto the Feelies in the early 80s and still look in the record stores hoping I would see a new record from them. Wake Ooloo is the good follow on from Glen Mercer.

I don't know if Glenn Mercer will play it live (he himself played almost all the instruments on it), but the new solo cd is very good and in a style similar to the atmosphere of this track.

[Guitarmike25]

he didnt play all the instroments

i know the keyboard player and the drummer who played on it

[COGENTCOG]

ok for the drummers (actually there are four guests S.Demeski, D. Weckerman, A.Fier and V.Denunzio), but there's nobody with credits for the keyboards on the record sleeve

[Guitarmike25]

yeah i was wrong about that

[loopyits]

This video is so uplifting it is almost like gospel music for me, I've watched it and listened to it at least twelve times since discovering You Tube. I revewed the Feelies first record for my college newspaper and when the recording this osng was on came out, Higher Ground was the cut amongst some others I played to get an instant lift in my spirits. I hope Glenn Mercer plays live when the solo recording comes out.
