Redbone - Come And Get Your Love (LIVE 1974 The Midnight Special) Reaction 

Native Americans are our brothers and sisters in Ireland. A couple of years after the Trail of tears they saved a $170 in 1847 and sent it to a starving people in Ireland during the famine where over 1 million people starved to death. It's a deed never forgotten.

When Lolly and Pat Vegas were hangin out with Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix on the Sunset Strip late 60's, Hendrix encouraged Lolly to put together a Native American band, and also suggested the name Redbone (Lolly's nickname) Hendrix was a huge fan of Lolly and his guitar style. Hendrix himself was half Cherokee. Wado, great reaction ✌🏽

Thank you for your kind words about our people. Those of us that’s left are survivors of genocide. We need more friends like you. Proud First Nations woman meegwetch. 🇨🇦❤️

Much love and respect from the Great Navajo Nation. We love our Redbone.

One of the greatest AMERICAN rock tunes of all time!

Wow I never seen a reaction from redbone like this. Thanks for putting us native Americans out there.

Just remember that this was back in the 70's - way before even you were born or even thought of!! Listen to the riffs, Lolly's smooth tones, and how he's even scatting!!! For a 4-piece band, they sure turned out an awesome sound (as did most groups back then). No autotune, voiceovers - just pure raw talent! Love, love, love this group and they should have been inducted in the Hall of of Fame already!

I've seen several Reaction videos of Redbone. The reaction is Always the same!!! Pure Astonishment realizing they are Native American!!! Makes me smile!!! Love this band!! Brings back so many wonderful memories!!! People think they are saying "Heeyy", but it's actually "Hail!! ....Here are the lyrics: Hail (hail) What's the matter with your head? Yeah Hail (hail) What's the matter with your mind And your sign? And a, oh, oh, oh Hail (hail) Nothin' the matter with your head Baby, find it, come on and find it Hail, with it, baby 'Cause you're fine And you're mine, and you look so divine Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Hail (hail) What's the matter with you? Feel right Don't you feel right baby? Hail, oh yeah Get it from the main vine, all right I said a find it, find it Go on and love it if you like it, yeah Hail (hail) It's your business if you want some, take some Get it together baby Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love, now Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love, now Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love, now Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love, now Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Hail (hail) What's the matter with you? Feel right Don't you feel right baby? Hail, oh yeah Get it from the main vine, all right Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love Come and get your love

I am not a subscriber,but I would like to thank you for your kind words Mr. Rich in regards to us Native Americans.👍 God bless you brother 🙏💖

Native Americans! God bless us all. A Native American Indian, Navajo from New Mexico. Thank you brother, you are loved.

The best part of your reactions is always that moment when you realize you know a song

If you've listened to Jimi Hendrix, you've heard Native American music, as he had black, Cherokee, and Scottish ancestry. This band was his idea. He told the Vegas brothers Lolly (the singer) and Pat (the one in black) to do the "Indian" thing, meaning do an all-Native American band. So, they did. If you've heard the Black Eyed Peas, you heard another Native American in action. Taboo of the Black Eyed Peas is Native American and Mexican, just like every member of this band (except the drummer, because he's the Filipino cousin of the Native American-Mexican man who danced in the beginning). You've heard more Indigenous music than you think. They are in every genre and every genre is derived from them. Even blues and gospel borrows from ancient Indigenous songs.

I remember watching this on Midnight Special in 1974!!! Yeah,, I am 63 years old,, Blessed to be here still 🙏❤ What an amazing group,, I knew that they were Native Americans back when I heard their first song Maggie in 70 or 71. This is great ikr?!! We did Rock back then in the 70s For Sure!!!:))) 👍👍🕺💃🥁 🎸 📻🎶🎶🎵🎶😍

Another fun fact: Lolly Vegas (again, the singer) was Jimi Hendrix's favorite guitarist!

I had the same reaction as you, my brotha, when I first found out that this very famous song that I'd known for many years, was sung by our wonderful Native American brothers!! Such a beautiful people & culture & clothing!! Love it & really loved your enthusiastic reaction!! Thanks man!😊💓😊

Redbone won Best Traditionalist R&B Award (a division of the Grammy) in 1974. They are the first (and only) Native band to win an award.

that moment when you realize.........one of the songs you grew up listening to,,,,,,was done by native americans. awesome.

Love, love love your realization of who sang this song...🫶

When I was a kid this song came on in the kitchen as we were making breakfast, and my dad strutted around the kitchen like Marvin Gaye with the whisk as a microphone. Real times.

Fun fact: Hendrix (who was part Cherokee) suggested the name Redbone to the Vegas brothers! There’s a really great graphic novel about the band called Redbone; they were a lot bigger outside the US and actually had a really successful run in Europe (Witch Queen of New Orleans, and We Were All Wounded at Wounded Knee both are pretty great) I didn’t see anyone suggest any other native bands in the comments and your reaction to Redbone was such pure joy to watch that I have to recommend a more recent band, Halluci Nation, an old classic, Buffy St Marie (who was also on Sesame Street in the 80s!), and a shoutout to a Canadian duo, Twin Flames (they sing in both English and Inuktitut…maybe French too?) Anyway! Loved this! Thank you!!

Redbone is not the patient. He's the Doctor.

Love Love Love Redbone and have for years ! Brings back great memories. Thank you

Thank you so much for your comment, my grandmother was the cousin on Geronimo and I have alot of things that were my grandmother's that my daddy left me when he passed away, handmade pots, bowls alot and I have handed down things to my children and grandchildren but I have honestly had people come over and ask me about my stuff because they said they didn't know anything about our culture, it makes me sad to know people are out there and know nothing about our history it feels like we have been written out of history and this country. 😢

There is a documentary called Rumble: Natives Americans that Rock. Haven't watched it yet, but looks really good.

Xit is another Native American band who were underrated. Listen to “Without Reservation”

Redbone could sure do that Motown Sound!

Shout out to my Native Brothers💯💕🦅🦅🦅

The look on your face when you realised that you knew the song................... Priceless!!! Yes, love this band and such fond memories of these times and the music played..........never forgotten, if only we had a time machine!!!! Much Aroha (love and respect) to our native brothers, where ever they be in the world. Big Jim - Ngati Whatua (Maori tribe) ..............New Zealand!!!

I’m Native American Ojibwa I’m proud of this band I’m 65 years old great stuff. I’m glad you enjoy it.

I grew up with all genre's of music but my faviorite is R & B Music. Music fills the soul, my mother told us to, not, look at color but everyone's heart. I give these words to all kids who come around. I'm an AZ indigious person and I do watch and enjoy your reactions.🫶🎶

Thank you for sharing this. As a NA Woman I truely appreciate this and above all - thank you for your words Bro. Voodoo Quees of New Orleans...We Were all Wounded at Wounded Knee

I Wish More People Had Your Respect For My People..I Am Navajo & Live My Life By The Belief That,, The Earth Is My Mother & ALL Her Children My Brothers & Sisters. 🙏 ❤

It's good to see you vibing to this song and giving Native Americans credit for being here in this country first, I got mad respect for you bro

If you recognize the song, it served as "Guardians of the Galaxy" opening credits.

random video popped up on Instagram. I watched it while doing laundry. And I had the same reaction. I told my girlfriend look who it is. And she was like no way! It's now on my Spotify playlist.

All b.s. aside. This is positively one of the best reactions I've seen. Finding out they're natives, best part.👍👍👍

Great reaction to an underappreciated band. I wish I could give this 3 or 4 likes. I live near a reservation and can pick up their FM station. When they play Native American music and chanting, I find myself listening to it for an hour or two without meaning to.

This song was VERY VERY popular on the radio in the 70's and MOST people had no idea REDBONE was an all Native American band, until they BUSTED OUT on the Midnight Special and we SAW them for the first time!!!! THRILLING!!! The song was written by the lead singer, the Fancy Dancer has PAINT on his face not a mustache...This song has been featured in a million movies and commercials since the 70's, and the most recent...Come and Get Your Love by REDBONE is FEATURED in the intro to Guardians of the Galaxy movie in theaters right now, 2023!! . Glad you loved the song and performance!!

Just earned a new sub with showing love and respect for us NATIVES. Much love and respect for y'all too our people (red and black) both endured many awful things from the whites but hey we're still here and standing strong 💪.. React to Supaman a native rapper.. #NATIVEPRIDE #FUCKCHRISTOPHERCOLUMBUS

Doc channelling his inner Star Lord lol :) Great reaction as always :) This Doc is doing essential work in entertaining the people in these trying times much love from the UK :)

That was one of the best music shows ever!

A Tribe called Red is a native group great as well

Hello my brother.. I was looking at all the reactions to redbone and I come across yours first and I listen to it and I want to thank you first and foremost for what you said I'm native American from Klamath falls Oregon... Likewise as natives have a genuine empathy and love for African-American our black brothers sisters.. we all are the Lord Jesus Christ children... But natives and blacks sure know suffering... God bless you I liked subscribed and shared

Sup doc Native American here Mohawk tribe 🤘 enjoy you’re reactions and if ya didn’t know native Americans are very much part of music just as much as black brothers and sisters

This song was played on movie, "Guardian of the Galaxy" it was on the sound track that Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) played. Redbones a fav of mine they also sing "Witch Queen of New Orleans."

This song is an absolute good. Never fails to get me hyped. I love seeing your reaction to it.

I’m fully white, like I’m almost 100 percent Norwegian. But I was born and raised on the white earth reservation in Minnesota. It literally made me understand the plight of natives in this country. I got to see it every day. It still makes me sad. It is better now, but not good enough.

Midnight Special with Wolfman Jack, good times.

Thank you for the respect ❤️. I am Native American from the Navajo Reservation in Arizona. Much love 💕

I live in New Mexico and love the Native American culture all around me, not to mention the great food. Nothing like going out into the desert when the sun is going down, kicking back and just listening to native flute music and coyotes singing in the background!

One of my favorite videos ! Also Midnight Special was always 🔥

There is a very rich vein of Native music, but mostly unknown among mainstream artists, sadly overlooked. I'm happy to see Redbone getting some much-deserved attention. Others have commented on some of the many excellent Native artists. There is a sub-genre of the music of the Native American Church called Peyote music. I think one of the best singers is Verdell Primeaux from South Dakota who often records with Navajo singers. His dad and uncle invented the use of harmonies in their Peyote songs. It is absolutely gorgeous. Anything you find by him will be wonderful, and very different from anything you have ever heard. There were times when I would open my bedroom window and let the music from an NAC ceremony lull me to sleep. Here's a beautiful one that Verdell and Johnny Mike, Navajo did on a Robbie Robertson album: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q2deKkmCZiA.html

I forgot..the suggestion is coming from a Navajo (Dine) from the Navajo reservation in New Mexico. A shout out from the 505

I was 14 when this song was released. So much great music from the late 60’s-mid 80’s

Blackfoot....(Train) this another native American band.

That fancy dancing was rad. Most of my family did it. I decided to do Hoop Dancing haha

We actually refer to ourselves as redbones. Native American sounds funny even to me because I know that there were people that lived here long before our tribe.. ( you really should react to the age of Funk. Music was Multicultural back then!)

Loved the reaction. :) lol So As my Grandfather use to say, We live in the only country in the world where your openly encouraged to embrace your ancestry and that of others. "However", He would continue, "For those who like to tell others to get out, Your making an assumption of ownership that only belongs to those who have been here the longest. As such the rest of you are all guests so act like it. You don't walk into someone else's home as a Guest and then kick some one ells out with out the owners permission, its Rude and disrespectful, to them, your Host and to your own parents who where suppose to have instilled in you some semblance of manners". :) As to the Music, Yes Redbone was Awesome. Many cultures have lent much to modern music and all of it should be embraced for its originality and how it inspires and unites. No matter where it comes from a rhythmic base drum can enflame the sole of any one. A lilting melodic wind interment can make the mined sore and heart lighten no matter who the listener. Music is Human, it transcends Raise and Gender as nothing ells in the Human experience can and is a Living Proof of how alike we really are to one another.

Try their song "Witch Queen of New Orleans".

Tony got the idea for his moustache from the Mexican actor Alejandro Campos. He always played the bad guy and was in Blackboard Jungle...

I STRONGLY suggest watching Redbone "Wounded Knee". It'll move your soul.

even though his "stash" was actually war paint...apparently you never seen older kung fu movies...asians had been trimming their "stashes" like that for a VERY long time

Lmao i just thought ever body knew...🤗 i did... nowww im honna push more for REZ EMOJIS!!!! YES! WITHHHH FEATHERS!!! AND ...YUP 😉😁 HATCHETS!!! 🤣🤣🤣 LOVE TO ALL!!!

They recorded this the year I was born. Lovely. This is great in The Guardians of the Galaxy.

When native Americans dance it's a prayer.love them so much .. I'll come get my love

Link wray - rumble 69 Link was a native American

Man, I truly enjoy watching you when you are watching these videos. Yes, we had some great music in the 70's K was 14 when this song came out.

Doc, They had a top 5 hit with this song. The 1970's had everything.

Another 1970 Native American Band XIT from Albuquerque, NM

I remember this song when I was I kid . The best of times.

I'm kiowa from oklahoma,I appreciate you, natives are always in the sbhadows

3 thumbs up on your reaction!! You're one of the few who actually listens to the music without pausing it every 10 seconds so you can hear yourself talk. Keep up the good work!

Look up Winterhawk, XIT, Tom Bee, and other songs by Redbone. Also look up Buffy Saint Marie. There is a documentary called "Rumble: The Indians who rocked the world" on Amazon prime (free). You'll be surprised how many are First Nations people. I grew up listening to all of these.

I am Native and I love your reaction...I sure appreciate your positive vibes...Pretty cool song right?

Dude... that song brings back memories of Summer or '74... poolside... whatchin' guys from behind cheap sunglasses... lifeguards kept it on repeat 😎 Those were the days!

A Tribe called Red...try the song, Stadium Pow Wow 👍

Great song great reaction! Love that song. The two lead singers are brothers who also wrote the song . They are lolly and pat vegas. Try paul revere and the raiders with Cherokee Nation

You feel so proud when you know you are native this is our land

Thanks for the respect . we are but one of a dying breed. From the ak-chin Indian community.

Great reaction Doc. If you want to see something beautiful and unique, check out " A Gathering of Nations 2017." You will love it. Chickasaw man here. Aihily ( goodbye).

I'm a Blackfoot/Crow Native. This is the best band. As for his mustache, I can grow one hair on my chin like ever 5 years. Lol. That might be the only way he can grow it. Look up the group Blackfoot :)

I LIVE for that moment of realization. hahaha

I remember listening to my mom's records when i was little and this song was always one of my favorites. It wasn't until about a year ago i found out this was a Native band. It totally blew me away, i always thought it was brothas, straight outa MOTOWN lol

Thank you for What you Expressed ln honor of our NATIVE AMERICAN PEOPLE ...Shalom..brother

Meegwetch thank you brother for sharing Redbone music. Another suggestion by Redbone is 13th hours song. Another Indigenous singer is Robbie Robertson . Much love and Respect always. Ah'o

I love your reaction just realizing. Much love from this Native woman. Sapo

This song is lit🔥🔥🔥 it gives me the chills. I grew up listening to this band

By the way, they're saying Hail, not hey. It was in Guardians of the Galaxy and a TV commercial.

Their record is in the Smithsonian Museum in Washington. True fact.

Grew up in the 70's. I must have heard this song 1000 times it was all over the radio. However, they played the studio version, without the Native drums at the beginning you see here. Also, only 3 channels on TV in those days and no internet... I didn't know until just today it was an all-Native American band. Cool. Thanks

Indigenous- is a fantastic rock blues band. Good song to start on, "Things We Do" You wanted suggestions...you will enjoy this one.

Love this recognition

Even Native Americans came here from somewhere else - they walked the Siberian - Aleutian land bridge during the last ice age. Long walk. We all immigrants here, but no doubt, they got here first.

I had no idea either have always loved this song. I was totally shocked when I saw this video. Love it ♥️♥️

This is a great song and selection, very popular song in the 70's.

Hey Doc! Check out the song 'Boujee Natives' by the Snotty Nose Rez Kids - they're Native rap/hip hop and WAY slept on. Thanks for the love, brother. Aho!

Love his reaction. And I agree totally with you.

Much love from Bolivia 🇧🇴 Khollasuyo 🇧🇴 Indigenous Land....

I’m Native American and this was we jam back in the 70’s

Merci mon ami de la France so good redbone
