Happy Birthday Dash!!,,blessing and greeting from Italy

[groundhog713]

Hearing this talk from Joe Smith, that's what the music industry used to stand for. Nowadays it's look good with no talent at all.

[scottymacIII]

[handymanm]

Thanks for posting...

Wonder what these guys are doing now...

[holobody]

That version is as powerful as the master! I attended a stadium concert in Portland OR and afterward it was announced that they would return to the stage to speak about the Bahá'í Faith. A few thousand stuck around. When they came out Jimmie spoke with soaring inspiration on the unity and succession of the Prophets through time. He pointed to the ceiling indicating that, like those lights up there, they are connected by the same flow of spirit lighting each age. The Biz let it happen. Amazing!

[Speed5152]

A nice Bio. Thanks. They were the absolute best !

[cayleyisawesome]

know jimmy ,he`s from rankin tx!

[yaluobud]

Thanks a million for a great post... brilliant easy listening music by legendary artists..

Has anyone got a video clip of "I'll play for you"?

I have been looking for it forever.

[puddles626]

@yaluobud I'm looking for it as well!

[chevydog56]

Saw them in Calgary, in the nineties on a 'World Peace Tour.' Super talented duo.

[EllipticalSound]

It was ridiculous how talented these guys were...Two of the best singer song writers ever in my book.

[jrcel21]

"See My Life" about the Bai'b of Persia, all their songs are based on Bahai' scripture. It preaches that all the prophets were sent by the one God to instruct mankind at various points in history and their teachings represent accumulated knowledge of God and are to be taken whole.

[syphen90125]

Mr Seals lived in San Fernando California. A very nice and cool guy.

[mec441]

one of the best get high songs of the 70's

[fafsa89]

It's cool. I've never seen this.

[docholladay2112]

Far out, man..........

[wallyworldusa]

This is not "ultra-rare". It was released on VHS at one time.

[intowhite09]

intowhite09 i agree with excelsiorinmiami..someone pleeeeease post :"we may never pass this way again"..some of the stuff off of the seals and croft album (signature record) are the best songs they ever did..they were very spiritual and had more substance than 90 % of the music churned out by the industry today..time to go back to simple, good songs..

[dadio4]

seals is the one with the hat on playing the fiddle at the beginning.

[cowpigs99]

which one is seals??????????????

[dadio4]

jimmy seals brother dan seals passed away last week

[excelsiorinmiami]

Hello webworld...Can someone please post We may never pass this way again by Seals&Croft

Thanks!

[spiralarch]

Great stuff!

[cidamed]

Back to the basics! I love it!

[Staki9]

Well I remember Oklahoma City 1973. Cher was there too. O my, o my! My favourite album is still Cows of Gladness.

[wallyworldusa]

There was no album called Cows of Gladness.

[Staki9]

Thanks WWU. I realize my mistake. The album's name was actually Seals and Crofts, being their first release in 1969 and I guess we always just called it by our favourite song on the album.

Have a nice day.

[jillyhawk]

yeah, but there was a song called "Cows of Gladness"...it were a beauty, lol!!

[jillyhawk]

Just two lovely lads, with brains & lyrics & talent... strummin' so fine...wouldn't get it done today (so sad), but back in OUR day, it ruled!... God Bless Seals & Crofts for what they gave us...pure magic~

[MrEasyLife]

@jillyhawk Yes, but many of the "Oldies" are still touring and succeeding and getting it done live in concert. I sure am glad I grew up with groups like Seals & Crofts. Those days sure conflict with our modern culture of Howard Stern, Jerry Springer, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, steroid injected athletes, etc. This world has not had a moral compass (beginning with my generation) because we have been told for the last 40 years that nothing is wrong and nothing is right.

[lilmikesf]

RE: Joe Smith, he was one of te last great record men, and afront office anomaly in his time, who indeed made money, after all he ran one of the most talent-centric labels of all time. That label stood by those guys for 3 albums before recouping. Try to find that now anywhere in the biz.The ignorant haters of this man obviously know nothing of his career and likely based on that type of backwards thinking attitude will have no career of their own.

[patnikkio]

Back in the days that you needed talent to succeed in the music business. These 2 are simply overflowing with it. I really need to check them out at the casino next time they come to Minnesota..

[xfaida]

Thank'you very much!

[coijoi]

let's talk about the good old day's.......

[xfaida]

What's name of little guitar?! I don't think that's ukulele, but a kind of it?

[warningtimewarner]

a mandolin

[photopicker]

mix money with music and you get profiteers who don't know shit about music - fortunately talent still sells records ...

[ZIPPTPH77]

Yeah right Joe Smith is his real name.

[nightjasmine25]

I remember the first time I saw them was on a show on PBS. They did an instrumental that was mostly mandolin. I can't for the life of me remember the name but I sure can remember the melody.

[wygakyl]

This takes me back to Roosevelt Stadium, Jersey City, NJ 1975, I believe. Poco, Seals & Crofts and The Eagles, whew, what a lineup! Schmidt and Furay were with Poco, and Joe Walsh made one of his early appearences with The Eagles that night. The last song was "You Get the Best of My Love", and Dan Foegelberg and J.D. Souther came out to sing.

[EmpressOfWyoming58]

The problem is: Seals and Crofts sounded really great, until they were big with the record company. Once they got a conctract, their music suffered and became to poppy.

[ryreinhardt]

these guys started as horn players in jazz bands,couldn't make money so reinvented themselves as songwriting harmony singers and string multiinstrumentalists - they are so incredibly talented - I HATE THEM!!!!!!!!!

[tucker108]

to conclude: This asshole in a white sweater and a bad haircut recorded Seals & Crofts only as long as they would keep bringing him and his company money. This record company type makes me sick. Who was the last artist labels recorded and pushed sheerly through the merits of hardwork and talent, may I ask?

[tucker108]

That president of WB is full of shit, talking about "paying your dues" as an ingredient for success. Most musicians pay their dues a thousand fold without monetary success, with amazing talent and endless belief in themselves-and anyone fool can tell you that much.

[highbreakos]

which is the song at start video (country)

[EllipticalSound]

This is soooo great! Thanks for posting it!

Two of the best singer song writers ever.

[newenglandvideo]

The Soundtrack from the Movie "One On One" is one of the best ever thanks to the music they provided.

[qbbvtb]

GREAT!!!!

[TimKGrimes]

I saw this two gents and their band in Chattanooga, TN during the 1970s. They started this very song, and much to my surprise, stopped after perhaps 4 bars of intro and made a soft comment to make a sound adjustment. Apparently, one of the locals had made a mistake on the band's sound board. Seconds later, with the correction made, they played everything in their book flawlessly. These two guys are truly superb musicians. Class act. Perfect music. What a pleasure.

[SydLennon79]

pretty clever middle eighth in summer breeze

[unisol86]

wow!. what year it is?

[1minidisco]

Whatever happened to those guys? That´s the only song I know from them, and I love it.

[stag7882004]

These guys sound great. Reminds me of my youth. Good memories. Wish i could go back to those days. 70's is the best music ever. There will never be another era like it.

[Jopy98]

Joe Smith is an unremitting ass.

[nowhereman63]

wow!!! Can i get in DVD???

[denise804]

u really should ask that in private.

[TrucksStop]

Fantastic, where did you ever find this?

[winforus]

Just Wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
