responding to everyone another great song is the rory gallagher I fall to pieces.There is a very rare version recorded for French T.V on you tube, I could almost feel the vibe.What is blue eyed soul?
WOW!!! I just realized (and after ALL these years of loving this song) that Paul Carrack was signing lead and a member of the group? DAMN...I'm own personal epic fail hahaha!!. Still digging on this song many years later! No wonder I love the song Living Years as well *smile*
Laid back AND smokin'... a perfect blue-eyed soul tune. I have very fond memories of this song on the radio back in high school. Paul Carrack's vocal is one that many, many modern singers would do well to try and emulate. And the line "I ain't quite as dumb as I seem" still kills me.
One of the acts that lead to Easy-Listening stations all over the nation. Moreover, was this tune based on the fact that one of the musicians was playing for a rival band? Please tell me.
@CGT867 Actually rather many please seek for Jools Holland Show. But the TV people should be given a kick up to .....s to give the bands a chance to play live instead of rolling those videos.
This is back when Music had it's Easy Listening Rock Stars....Those you could understand and although many were covered with hair...you could still see they put their heart into it and know where the song was going.
This song brings back my great memories from the spring and early summer of 1975, here in New York City , as I was just about to graduate from high school. This great song got heavy radio air play at that time ! This is one of my favorite all time songs ! Ace was a great group and should have had many more super hit songs !!
Even though my tastes are more along Susperia and Slayer, this is a great song! Brings back memories!
The sign of a truly good song is when you remember where you were and what you were doing, the first time you either heard it or remember hearing it...
My God, Paul Carrack really does it for me on this video; gorgeous eyes and voice. When he sings the second "how long" at 15:03 it feels as though a finger is being trailed down my spine. Wow. BTW, spot the bod wandering around at 15:28-15:33 and Phil Harris peering round at him!

actually Paul's fighting with the delay at around16:36, sound guy's probably busy with something 70s-like.. heheh! and there are effects all over this recording. but you're right—just the basics, no auto-tune, no lip syncing, no loops... just a straight ahead great performance. I love how the director is trying desperately to locate the guy who's playing the guitar solo... is it the other guitar player? no. is it the drummer? no. is it the actual guitar player? no. is it the bass?
@hardlines4 It sure isn't like the crap they have today that they call music. I hardly listen to the radio anymore, unless it's an oldies station or talk radio...lol... All I can say is that it's pretty pathetic of today when someone needs computer software to help them sing. Unlike the ACE, in the video here, That is REAL talent, NOT what they call talent today because as far as i seen, there's not much out there. Just the ones with hardly or NO talent get the money and fame.
Just saw Ace yesterday at the City of Ontario's 4th of July celebration at Westwind park. They were also here a couple of years ago for our 4th of July celebration. A wonderful band who play a variety of hits from the 60's and 70's.
being 19 and listening to this...makes my friends say im gay....i say naayyy to that and flip them off!!!!
