[greenwalt1954]

Nice to see the old footage,Thanks my Friend for the download! I am 57 from ST. Louis,area and,"WOW" had some good" Mind reshaping"back then in the 70's, Great Band love their music! As much as i like all Progressive music "NECTAR" out shines them all, that's my own opinion.

Check out Taff Freeman working the slide to shape the sound at 6:16. You can't midi technique like that. Real Hammonds RULE!

I was at this concert, Nearfest 2002. As a matter of fact, my ex-brother-in-law is on the DVD this was taken from. Got to hang out with the band that evening. Quite a good time.

[gorgonslave]

excellent thank you

[fridaycat45]

man i dig this song ..

[slayerized86]

You couldn't possibly upload the live performance of this song from the seventees? Without a doubt the best live performance I've seen by this band.

[ScudoBR]

EXCELLENT !

Thanks for that, Iam.

[candalyn928]

Still playing and sounding better than ever. Pick up the new live CD, "Fortyfied" celebrating Nektar's 40th Anniversary. You can get it on the website nektarsmusic.

[gulopo]

man, on those times hundred of tons of lsd where circulating in the rock music.

[cornholio1962]

what a clever vid youth n mature same band brill

[mojorisingyou]

I own all their music now.  Have many of the LPs too. Very influential band in my youth. Never got tired of their music, just a beautiful experience listening and dreaming.

[nux1966]

I saw NEKTAR at the St. Paul Theater MN in 1978....one of the best shows ever, sadley I don't remember a hole lot of it "too high"....I would love to see some more vintage concert footage!

[Carlito1988]

Never saw them live, but sure loved their albums back in the 70's!!

[ultradiv]

Catch up with all their stuff on nektarsmusic . com

[harkerlana]

Singularly the most underrated band in my lifetime.

Their collective album catalogue is nothing short of amazing.

Oh, many a good night (under a certain influence) listening to their music

[shaynescope]

@harkerlana I could not agree more.

[Koinzidenz]

Hervorragend, aberbitte etwas mehr Sound

[squonkk]

thanks for posting this great band

[CaseyODacey]

This is the same "band" (NEKTAR) that released "Magic Is A Child." The lead guitar player in both videos, Roye Albrighton, left NEKTAR before it was recorded/released. What you're seeing is a well-done merge of two videos of the same song recorded by the original & (briefly) reunited band-members. The older one was probably 1973-4, & the most recent was recorded at NEARFest 2002.

[liliodine]

Does anyone know if this is the band that sang "Magic Is A Child"?

[Kohntarkosz]

This looks to be from the DVD that was released from their performance at NEARfest 2002. This was the first time they had performed with the original lineup since ca. 1976! They were also joined by their original lighting guy Mick Brockett! I was at this show and it was fantastic!

[JCalifa]

Could you please post the old video on its own? And maybe raise the volume a bit.

Thanks, —Jono

[BrunoSamppa]
