Heart of the Night - Poco

[cindyedenfield100]

Please get the sound back. This is the best video for this song.

[steelcane1]

Sounds of silence!

[Jovolution]

nothing to hear :O(

[jekiwe]

@Jovolution at least the video is restful even though there's no audio...hey memphotenn pay attention to anyone here ?

[Mechanic0751]

Hey! where is the sound, what's happening here?

[kikomiko1]

I guess I've finally gone deaf after all these years of listening to music too loud...guess I better just die right now. No point in living without music. Cya guys.

[lefthandedgenious]

Amen.

[normnrona]

And still no sound 

[D7J7W7]

Wow.... such a quieting song....very peaceful, the silence....

[greywolf45]

NO SOUND!!! Let me know when you get this fixed, and i'll come back.

[Oceabrz]

NO SOUND!! :(

[rowwell]

HEY, WEHERE"S THE SOUND?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[keekee4360]

I'm just not getting any sound whatsoever from this video. I hear others but not this one. hmmmm

[dalebgoo]

this would be nice IF THERE WAS SOUND!!!

[coolsax64]

NO SOUND??

[tvgizmo123]

@coolsax64 you are right NO SOUND!!!!!!

[SteelyMcBeam75070]

no audio

[Theodorej1960]

Woops....they took the audio out of this very beautiful video.

[cindyedenfield]

I really wish you could get the music back for this. It was really wonderful. New Orleans has been through so much with hurricane Katrina and now the oil spill and this song lets you see how resilient the people there really are.

[midlocal]

um i think you forgot the audio

[jean1126]

@midlocal  So what happened to the AUDIO... Wanted to post...but...

[joyceannpumpkin]

ah.....Nawlins...<3

[MrKurt1962]

Good ole' Nawlins'.... hurricanes be damned! Thank so very much Drew Brees and the Saints for a dream season!! Whodat.. forever baby!

[SirenaCansone]

Just got back from NOLA for Mardi Gras and the whole time I was there I was trying to remember this song! All I could remember was that it had "Pontchartrain" in it. It took some research but I'm so glad my memory was jogged and that you posted this great original version. THANKS Mempho!

[thewildpearl]

And CONGRATS to N.O. SAINTS! I can't even imagine Bourbon Street right now. They deserve it. :)

[thewildpearl]

JUST SO EVERYBODY KNOWS... I love this song & visited MemphoTenn's site regularly. I was here the day WMG (or whoever) deleted it. MemphoTenn was kind enough to direct me to the other site. I'm glad he or she posted the link, because there are fans who love this song. Just enjoy the song please. Peace to all.

[evensteven300k]

delete this video since the sound wasn't delivered with it...i was directed here by google....it could have directed me ot one that had sound

[musicollector1975]

This video, audible or, in this case, inaudible, is irrelevant. I want to HEAR this masterpiece, .The song is everything.

[lilakid]

Youtube didn't delete the audio - ONE Media want you to go to their link to listen. Think that's really sucky.

[flyboi61]

IT DOESNT PLAY!!

[MIKEYQLZ]

Yes, this needs the music. I travel to NOLA every year for Mardi Gras. One of the the greatest places in the world.

[cindyedenfield]

Please bring the music back, this video meant so much to us here in New Orleans. Thanks

[HUTINAK]

MAN! This song DOUBLE-LINES the summer of 1979

wow 30 yrs ago

[HuasoPodrido]

figures that youfart would delete the audio.

[stratnoodler]

nil sono, ques que de matta heer

[jukarmolo]

[marisha4sure]

No sound on this one?

[Halpin2006]

Hey, I can't get any sound from this!

[jlboss88]

Thanks for providing the link. This is a great video and a great song. Thank you MemphoTenn!!

[yodavalentine]

[jefffruth]

don't wake me or shake me if its only just a dream...its the only place...

[harryanchan]

Sorry...my apologies for missing that link. I should have appreciated you posting such a fabulous song! Again, THANK YOU. You have good taste!

[tpmh37]

I love this song and I love New Orleans too. I go every year and EAT!! I really love Mother's on Poydras for breakfast and Margerittaville's for dinner. Of course Cafe du Monds. The time is coming up to go again in May, which is really hot at that time of the year, but it's all worth it.

[edpgroup]

you have to click on the blue link in the upper gray box to the right for the sound

[blueleopardmedia]

Are my ears stopped up??

[sittinsidewayzz]

Why isn't their any sound, darn it.

[thewildpearl]

Thanks so much, MemphoTenn.  :)

[kpbhd]

mempho, in sent you a mes. i think. could you post the link. thank you

[PEDROCLASSIC]

in the heart of the night in the cool southern rain,there's a full moon in sight,and the river she rises just like she used to do...she's so full of surprises...

this is my driving-after-work song.

[thewildpearl]

I write MemphoTenn and she said she can't fix the sound. She said YouTube has removed this video from her montage due to copyright issues. She didn't even know we could still bring this up.

[mjw0047]

Takes me back to so many good memories. Always loved Poco. 5 stars

[mab9975]

awesome

[busheybushdawg]

Takes me back!

[tmmmviii]

Love hearing this. Thanks for posting it.

[hardlines4]

When music was REAL!!!!!!!!!!!

[ilianagar75]

I live in New Orleans and this is beutiful, thanks for the video. Orgullosa de vivir en New Orleans, una ciudad maravillosa. THE BIG EASY, only in New Orleans.

[051500]

amazing heart felt tear jerking song that makes me smile as well;infact, I miss her everyday but we both have moved on!!!!

[Ramona817]

i heard this song today, on a grocery store's piped in music, and was instantly transported to a wonderful time 25 years ago and to people I have long since lost touch with. Kids, just remember, your parents were once people with dreams, and who connected with other people, and places, and who had to leave their dreams aside. It's your turn now and I just wish your generation had music as beautiful as this.

[MemphoTenn]

Really... I am sure they'd love to release a new record... but the blame is the record companies' for putting out the same endless trash that they think people want to hear - and only promoting crap. I think they have a website you can visit. I believe they still tour in some variation of the members. Many 70's & early 80's artists are still doing shows and producing their own material. Like I said, it just doesn't get promoted b/c what gets attention these days is trash.

[Oceabrz]

@PEDROCLASSIC lol yep they are a great band. They're still playing festivals and clubs. George Grantham, the drummer, suffered a stroke in 2004 and no longer plays with them, but they remain close. George Lawrence replaced him. Paul Cotton unfortunately has left the group just recently -supposedly over a financial dispute-.. . Jack Sundrud had joined the band, and Michael Webb will be replacing Paul for upcoming tour dates

[lavender880]

I used to live in New Orleans, and I used to hear this song on a jukebox at my favorite bar in the French Quarter- good memories...excellent video, it was very moving for me... ( sniffle )

[18alou]

God Bless Houma too

[shawnedell]

This is an great song, great southern song.I grew up in the 80's, this was that type of music in that time... Thankyou for posting it, along with the video you put together you did an excellent job.

[niceguy44107]

I have always Loved this song! Only been to New Orleans once years ago... Katrina broke my heart! My GOD! Gustav, PLEASE leave New Orleans alone!!

[lonestarcinnamongal]

I must have heard a snippet of this song somewhere yesterday because it's been in my head since then. I've had a rough week with my Pop being in the hospital. The song brought me comfort for some reason. I looked it up today and found this beautiful video. I've only been to New Orleans once but I fell in love with the town and the people. I went after Katrina volunteering in the 9th Ward. This video captures the spirit of the Big Easy. Thanks for posting it.

[57Will]

Was thinking of this song at work today, and thinking of the city of New Orleans, a place I'd come to love in my four visits before Katrina hit. Haven't been back to visit since, but I still think about the friends I made there, and wonder how they are doing.

[WaldosGirl]

I saw pics of places I visited before Katrina hit. I miss the old girl, she has bounced back, but will never be the same as she once was. Thanks for the beautiful video.

[Jomei2810]

Thank You Very Much for This Beautifull Video And Song. THAT´S Real Music. Today, I Missed This Quality Very Much...

[MemphoTenn]

The new music of today lacks the sincerity & feeling of the great songs of our past. I find myself going back to them again and again to refresh my spirit. Then again, I've never left them behind...

[tmmmviii]

Nice post.

[gimmeshelter64]

When HURRICANE KATRINA hit NEW ORLEANS, all I could think of was PAUL COTTON, and his lyrics to this SONG! HE SO LOVED THIS PLACE, he always refered to it in his writing. In this SONG, HE TOOK ME THERE, I GOT WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT, although having NEVER BEEN. Something 'bout the PONCHATRAIN and a DIXIE MOON and a LOVERS KISS, that to me is a GREAT FEELING!

[MemphoTenn]

New Orleans and Memphis are two cities that have this unexplainable vibe that you can only understand by having been there. As they say, "it must be in the water!" There really is something mystical about that river.

[Oceabrz]

@gimmeshelter64 yep..Paul loved to sail....whenever Poco came to South Florida we traveled to see them. They're our favorite band. such great musicians. so sad for George Grantham that he had the stroke and now can't play with them. and no more Paul! Paul was without a doubt, my favorite. Man, when Rusty breaks out that Dobro! watch out! :D

[adrianlombardini]

This was another of those vinyl records i remember clearly even when i bought it... it was one of my dreams back then to make a radio show named precisely like this song. Beautiful video! I wish i'd known New Orleans before Katrina.

[hardlines4]

This beautiful song and Indian Summer are Paul Cotton's BEST.....Live on POCO!

[meyc534]

Haven't heard this in forever!Thanks for adding and bringing back the memories from 79"

[hurt4363]

Damn I miss home. I am a Katrina evacuee living in another state now. Thanks for the good feelings and memories on your video.

[legendsandpros]

You are very talented and we have been blessed by this video "outstanding" work...don't stop!

[mac1172000]

one of the best songs and vodeo ive seen in a long time

[pma3568]

Great Video man. I remember this song growing up in New Orleans but it took me till I was in college to realize it was about my home town.

[carlannorma06]

This is one of Paul Cottons best songs.

Great song about NEW ORLEANS

[chrisgreen67]

What a perfect song! LOVE IT!!

Totally underrated group and style of music...

[Oceabrz]

@chrisgreen67 totally agree. As a band, they didn't want to become commerialized. and I don't blame them.

[bearnurse1]

'79 was when I graduated from high school. My brother was living in New Orleans at that time. This has beautiful scenes of N.O. at that time.

[kcsunshine64]

I love this song. It always made me want to visit New Orleans. Poco and the

Eagles epitomize the country/soft rock sound that was so successful in the '70's and early '80's.

[kcsunshine64]

I loved this song when it came out and it still sounds great. I've never been to New Orleans, but I would love to go some day. It was tragic what happened in '05(Katrina).Poco was a great band, with luckier timing they could've been bigger than the Eagles.

[kcsunshine64]

I've always loved Poco and this song in particular. With better timing Poco might have been bigger than the Eagles(at least the Eagles got Randy Meisner and Timothy B. Schmit for a while).

[prwash]

This still sounds great after so many years!

[jhanlon18]

Is the Jai Winding on keyboards the same guy who played on some Boz Scaggs work?

[MemphoTenn]

Same one... from "Down Two, Then Left" - and Timothy B. Schmit also worked with Boz as well.

[cjthemusicman]

Always enjoyed Poco.....great summertime memories!

Super job on the vid!

[stormbouy]

i used to play this song in a band...i forgot i knew it ..thank you

[peytonplc10]

I haven't heard this song in ages. Beautiful vid and great song(lyrically speaking)long before the devestation that occured in '05. Thanx for posting this and I too saved this gem in my playlist! Peace, Mempho

[MemphoTenn]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the save!

[Mystifier122]

Always liked this song, thanks for the info rundown.

[americabestinn]

It was a love affair--with being young and with a city. It was long before Katrina; it was the summer of '79 in New Orleans.

"It's the only place that I could face that made me feel so right." I remember walking

down Decatur St. and hearing "In the heart of the night." Great memories, great song and video!

[bingbueno]

who are this two members of the eagles

[MemphoTenn]

Read the summary on the video that I wrote - Randy Meisner & Timothy B. Schmit.

[marisha4sure]

nice one!

[MemphoTenn]

Thanks! Glad you like it. :-)

[hardlines4]

Beautiful song...The Eagles need to thank this great band where they got their ideas from...

[MemphoTenn]

...and two of their members!

[Jiffxx]

Excellent.  I suppose a photo of the "river" really rising would have spoiled it.

[MemphoTenn]

Yeah, I didn't want to use any photos of the bad memories...

[SgtDeckerus]

Wonderful Video, Cool pictures of New Orleans as a background to a great song.

[MemphoTenn]

Thanks, Sgt! :-)
