“The Rolling Stone” they’re singing about was the most influential magazine covering Rock n Roll. They were extremely influential when all music was on vinyl but have lost influence in the digital age. ‘Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show’ is another one of those eccentric bands from the late 1960s early 70s that had hits in their day. You don’t get stuff like this today because everything is so contrived in the music industry now.

Shel Silverstein was a children's author who did Where The Sidewalk Ends, The Giving Tree, and A Light In The Attic....most kids know of at least one of those books to this day. Shel also wrote almost all of the lyrics on this album by Dr Hook (Sloppy Seconds). Shel ALSO wrote Johnny Cash's classic song "A Boy Named Sue". Silverstein was a party animal who lived on a big house boat for a while (there is video of Dr Hook jamming on that house boat if you look it up on RU-vid). He wrote a poem about a joint rolling/smoking contest that everybody should hear (The Great Smoke Off)...the guy was an American treasure.

@@johnc.195 I agree 100%. Im not a HUGE "Sylvia's Mother" fan for personal reasons, but that song was based on actual events and was very personal to Shel. Dennis sings it with so much emotion, that you'd think it was a song he wrote for sure. "Carry Me, Carrie" is the better song in my opinion, but Sylvia's Mother is the best example of how GREAT DR Hook was at making Shel into good music.

@johnc.195 2 года назад

@@Gekokujo76 Shel and Dennis and Dr. Hook made beautiful, underappreciated ballads. My favorites (in no particular order). I believe these were all Shel and Dennis, they do have a distinctive style even though each song is unique. I would have put "If Not You" on this list but I can only find Dennis listed as the song writer. I would bet that Shel helped, it fits too well with the others and is just as beautiful. :-) ----- "Mama, I'll Sing One Song for You" for all those "...sweatin' hard eyed brakemen, in the rail yards I rolled through." ----- "Judy" because "She's not the campfire girl you might suppose." ----- "The Wonderful Soup Stone" " I can taste the chicken and tomatoes." ----- "More Like The Movies" "You never got to hear those violins." ----- "A Couple More Years" "It ain't that I'm wiser it's only that I've spent more time with my back to the wall." -----

I've seen hundreds of bands live, but Three Dog Night was hands down the most fun I've ever had at a concert. The band is fun, the music is fun and they have many hits-every song a hit. I was standing in front of the stage as they began "Momma Told Me Not to Come" and tossed a lit joint onstage. The singer with the eye patch picked it up, took a hit and passed it around the band and then pointed me out. Fun times!

@DSquareMusicBucketlist 2 года назад

My Dad thought this song was hilarious! “Sing about beauty and we sing about truth, at $10,000 a show.” That line cracked him up. He was a country music guy and he loved the whole parody of the song. As an aside, we used to debate who was the better guitarist; Chet Atkins or Eric Clapton. Now that I’m older, I must admit Chet Atkins was probably better.

@PlateOshrimp499 2 года назад

You couldn't be more right about Chet: he's a much more complete guitarist. Eric is a very strong and fluid lead blues player, but the chord voicings and moving internal melodies that Chet Atkins can do kinda leave Clapton in the dust. EC kept on moving through trends and stayed hip, while CE kept on pretty much doing the same thing, which explains a lot of Clapton's enduring popularity. Eric was part of the era of making huge star singers and guitar heros, so his hype will always be 10x that Chet's will ever be, so it's a little like a political campaign: the more money and hype thrown behind a candidate, the better the chances that candidate will be the one some people remember when they go to the polls.

It's bittersweet to see Ray and Dennis obviously so cheerful and happy together, enjoying performing together, close friends as they were at the time. And then in the 80s Ray left the band, due to "creative differences"... and when Ray died not that many years ago now, they hadnt even spoken in decades. Dennis's statement when Ray died was simply "Although I hadn't been in contact with Ray for many, many years it does not erase the fact that we were once close friends and shared an important time in both our lives. Deep condolences go out to his family at what must be a difficult time." Which is nice enough I suppose, but it's also very distant and diplomatic, and seeing them here makes me sad that they never tried to rekindle that or even have any contact before it was too late and one of them died of old age. Oh well, people grow apart I guess, for better or worse

Dr. Hook was always one of my favorite bands from the 70s my parents used to listen to their music a lot I was probably about 6 when I started listening to them a lot around 1978 , a lot of awesome music to chose from back then !

The medicine show was the name of the album the song is about getting on the cover of rolling stone magazine. One of my all time favourite classics. Great reaction guy’s 🙂

I saw these guys multiple times over the years. They used to regularly play at a small club right on the Ky.-Tenn. border close to where I'm from and still live today. They were an absolute hoot to see perform live. Ray Sawyer, the singer with the eyepatch in the video, passed away on New Years Eve 2018 at the age of 81.

Thanks to this song, their smiling faces made the cover of the Rolling Stone magazine.

We had this song in the jukebox of our friend's bar, and in the late 90s when I was is my 20s, we'd play this song and the entire bar would sing along. So much fun. And at that point the song was 25 years old and some of us weren't even born when it came out but we grew up with music like this thanks to our parents and/or older siblings.

And they did make the cover after this hit the airwaves. Rolling Stone was THE music publication of the time.

Saw these guys in the 70s and it was something like a carnival ride from songs like this and on-stage antics to some really mellow, sweet sane songs. They were a little like rock and roll vaudeville.

"SHARING THE NIGHT TOGETHER"My favorite of Dr Hook song

It's so badass to see y'all listening to these old jams! I love seeing your reactions.

Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show was the name of the band at first. So glad y'all reacted to these guys! They were partying dudes on stage and off. Fun days. More Dr. Hook, please.

Some of their best songs, including this one, were written by Shel Silverstein. Their version (the original) of the Ballad of Lucy Jordan is incredibly touching.

I'm so glad that you all found this. Brings back a lot of memories!

My mom listened to Elvis, Dr Hook and a few others often when i was a child in the 70's. Some of her favorite bands. They all had talent in excess. Saw Dr. Hook live later in life and they were absolutely brilliant.

@thorkildecliveland 2 года назад

And not long after that,. they got on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. All smiling man! Beautiful!

I saw these guys in the early 80s at the Strawberry Festival in Plant City, FL. I was just barely a teenager. Everybody was singing like crazy. Fun time. Another big hit of theirs is “When You’re in Love with a Beautiful Woman” from 1979.

The song worked, they got on the cover. What a talented bunch.

@bosshogg95SLT 2 года назад

hands down the most magic made together of any band ive ever seen.

@SnuSlavin Год назад

I love that you loved it! The singer was very well known. That acoustic player went to Australia to become very popular there....Rest in Peace Ray...

Dr. Hook was my mom’s very first concert back in the seventies; my grandpa took her. She would’ve been younger than ten. Doesn’t get cooler than that

@richardtaylor8595 2 года назад

Back in this time there was no smart phones, no cable tv and to get on the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine meant you finally hit the big time. I loved this band back in those days but when they tried to go commercial it was their downfall. Please check out the Wonderful Soup stone song. I am sixty and this song still blows my mind. check out Penicillin Penny as well. They made it to the cover and it sold more copies for the magazine than they ever expected.

@jollyrodgers7272 2 года назад

Yeah, this was a big hit in '72 - and by March of '73 they were featured on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. In 1975 they shortened their name to 'Dr. Hook'. The great Shel Silverstein wrote a number of songs with them in the '70s, that weren't suitable for children's books. This song still cracks me up.

@paul0wen65 2 года назад

In my junior year of high school, we would take "camping trips" from Great Falls to the Swan Lake area of Montana, singing this song in harmony and drinking cheep beers, for a good many times even after graduation.. Great memories and love the reactions!

Dr. Hook and the medicine show was the name of the group. They had a lot of awesome songs. They were usually really stoned.

Dr Hook and the Medicine Show is the name of the band. This song shot high on the charts and they were then featured on the cover of the Rolling Stone (the magazine at the time was the pinnacle of rock and roll fame). There was a cute photo of them with their mother and the "five copies" he bought for her that was featured in the magazine.

"Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show" was just the name of the group, but it was shortened to just "Dr. hook" in 1975. They're one of my favorite groups. They cut an album called, "Bankrupt" in '75. I used to listen to it when I was a kid. GREAT ALBUM! This song was on it.

While serving in the U.S. Navy from 1969-1973, stationed on a U.S. Destroyer, I had a subscription to Rolling Stone Magazine. I loved reading it. I knew just about everything that was going on in the rock world and with each rock band. By the way, it was a monthly magazine. Actually, it was in newspaper form, but it was called magazine.
