Coolest drummer ever! I love this guy. This and Poppa was a rolling stone have to be the coolest songs ever. Wish I still had my long hair,bell bottoms,shoes with the 4 inch soles,paisley shirt with bell sleeves and 5 inch cuffs,peace sign hangin round my neck and a big hard on for just being cool.The early 70s, ahh it was beautiful man.
With all of our "progress" since 1972, can talent like this still exist? I mean, seriously, is it even possible for this caliber of singer/songwriter/musician to get together with other talented musicians who play real instruments anymore - to make music that will last forever? We don't need a lot of flash, or a multi-million dollar stage show, or an artsy video, or bling, or dance remixes. Just work hard at becoming a great musician, then make it look easy like these guys did. Too much to ask?
@The1972drummer I soooo get what your saying. It's very rare that an artest comes along today and has real talent, musicaly. Pop, country, rock, and rap just dont realy have anyone thats really the total package anymore. It is all autotuned to perfection. Nothing is real like this.
powerful and beautiful... and yes, it is definitely too short!

Some people want young white females to mix with non-white males.
I made a one-minute video highlighting a very tiny sample of race-mixing advertisements.
I love white people, and I am opposed to race-mixing. But I do not hate non-whites.
