Terry Reid - Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace

[BloodyBlackrose98]

jack white gives mr reid his due, him and his motley crew, forgive my spelling recounters, the last rock and roll band to touch those waters, my hats off mr white southwest detriot thanks you i hope you do a copy of may-fly or if your so inclined. tinker, tailor.

[omoya]

GO Terry! You just cannot duplicate the wail. Love and know Cheap Trick personally, but they chose it because they agreed and loved him so much. I always will, too...

[ianhunterfan]

i like it! but not as much as CT"s

[bluelereaux]

Smile.

[whitford70]

Cheap Trick or Terry Reid? Don't make me decide!

[captainlockheed214]

Cool, after I wore out my copies I could only find crappy used records. This is nice and clean. Great job!

[MrCherryJuice]

@captainlockheed214 - This is available on CD!

[chowderdown1]

salgoudsamoht Very Well said!! Kick Ass Jam G-Tar. This is one of my Cheap tTrick Tunes... Super-charge-me

[salgoudsamoht]

killer song. thanks for the upload. brings back bittersweet memoires of barrelling down the road in a doomed chevrolet with a fifth of whiskey and a big joint. one is glad to have survived a misspent youth in a place that had little to offer except for the chance to develop creative ways, and not so creative ones as well, of dealiing with the everpresent ennui. now, listening to this tune in yokohama, japan while enjoying retirement, makes me feel thankful for the craziness of years gone by.

[daphnener]

@salgoudsamoht you're welcome! I'm always glad when I can spread the Terry love.

[rickanna]

imo Terry Reid owns this song, Cheap Trick does ok, but he is tight.

[balancepiston]

@rickanna this guy sings it better, but cheap trick bass and guitars are more on point. tom peterson did a good interpretation of the begining lick and switching it to bass instead

[vinorama58]

First time that I have heard this and I am impressed. Trick stayed pretty close to form.

[antoniosoul]

Well, I discovered Terry Reid through Cheap Trick- so hats off to them! What an incredible voice!

[captainlockheed214]

TR rocks pure and simple.

[Asto995]

Muy bueno, aguante este loco!

[fastfilm1]

There was also a cover single of this song by Christopher Milk, a clever, American glam/theatrical band reputed to have influenced Cheap Trick...

[stuka52]

What I like about Cheap Tricks cover is they don't change it a bit, why change a great song?

[LedAnnaFloyd]

WOW! You're so lucky jimbo33!:)

ONE & ONLY TERRY REID!!!!!!

One of the signature songs of Terry Reid. Just a fantastic talent. I consider myself fortunate to have seen him perform live in the Detroit, Mi area in the late 60's early 70's. A tremendous talent!!!!

[muddy2]

Awesome...just awesome

[gonzocurt]

Way cool song! Like the build up at the beginning and the breaks. We used to do our best to play this in the garage band I was in.

[KCVROCKS2008]

well cheap trick did do some interesting covers i have to say over the years.....

[DieCarlosDie]

pretty cool song, when im listening to solar, a Chilean band, and their song "Reina sexy" i remeber all the good things that reid make for the music, awesome dude!!!

[maida1982a]

Folks, it's 2009, and Terry continues to dazzle. Go see him and you'll agree.

[floggingmolly265]

I find this version is way better because of the vocals! But that's my opinion... :P

[daphnener]

Right on :) Everyone is entitled to an opinion. I just happen to agree... but I think I'm biased lol

[digoxin]

Hehe of course you are! You didn't smoke and chit-chat with Cheap Trick, but you did with Terry... just sayin' :PPP

[daphnener]

Goodness, I just love you to pieces :)

[digoxin]

Then stop ignoring my email. Go-to-your-inbox (not the one on YouTube... the real one)

[daphnener]

yes, ma'am!

[rrrasmus]

A couple of years back I used to think that it was originally by Cheap Trick. Their version is great, but this is good as well!

[louielovett]

Thanks for posting. Wanted to hear the original version and it's cool. Cheap Trick's version rocks big time.

[digoxin]

...and did we mention Cheap Trick didn't write this song? :P

Thanks for uploading!
