I did not have the opportunity to see this band in Edinburgh when i used to work up there 1971/72 but Soft Machine ! Yes still fantastic at 71 years old .regards from France
Jimmy is a legend and was gorgeous this whole band did not get the credit they deserved yet Janis Joplin and many others did....Maggie is better looking modestly dressed with a great hair cut to boot,,,good looking band such a shame...
Greetings vJimmy and his Brother Jack who was a drummer looked very similar to each other..Jimmy was gorgeous ...Gone to sson..I was 14 yrs of age when he passed...Paul and wife there should of helped poor Jimmy who at a very young age along with his Brother Jack were exposed to all kinds of beer drink and marijuana and other elicit drugs at a very young age...MESSED UP !!!!!I had wished that his Mother and Father had done somethin RIP JIMMY
Jimmy was so young to play that kind of blues. He had to have a special talent to do that. Some folk can play all there lives and never reach anywhere near that level. No wonder Paul McCartney poached him. RIP Jimmy 🙏😘

A truly great band. However, I saw Stone The Crows two weeks before Les Harvey was killed by electricity in Wales. Les and Maggie had a dynamic that was ethereal. They would have....well, how far could they have gone? Who knows?
This is the first time I have ever seen this band,have heard of them but my God this won’t be the only time.67 years old but not too old to learn something new.
Grettings from Texas I was just 9 yrs of age when this show aired,,Jimmy was is a legend the whole band is,,and Maggie is above and beyond Janis Joplin looks wise and talent wise,,,better dresser and modest with great hair,,,,Jimmy was gorgeous so was his Brother Jack God bless you and yours
Why wasn't Maggie Bell a global superstar? and Jimmy McCulloch played guitar on Thunderclap Newman's no.1 single Something In The Air aged only 15 bless him. Taken too young.
Credence the great state of Texas I was 14 when Jimmy passed away in 1979 this band was phenomenal underrated Maggie Bell better version than Janis Joplin hands down looks-wise stage present great haircut she had and she dressed modestly Jimmy was gorgeous so is his brother it is a well-known fact this song is about having sex with Jimmy I don't see how people don't get this he was irresistible
Jimmy McCullough easily the most underrated guitarist of the 70’s… 3 yrs after this gig he’s the lead guitarist of Wings touring with Paul and Linda McCartney on the incredible Rochshow ‘76 tour.
Greetings from Texas ..this band was phenomenal...Jimmy is a legend and who knows how far he would of went had he lived...his Brother Jack was a great drummer and both Brothers looked similar...
greetings from the great state of Arkansas USA very true and will said Jimmy was drop dead gorgeous so is his brother Jack what a shame how he passed away what a disgrace where were the McCartney's when they sent him to rehab you know when things go the chips got burned down and Jimmy goes on drugs and all the stuff started with marijuana and drinking heavy Justin McCartney's didn't help him what was his family and his parents everything was going well as long as Jimmy was putting out his brother Jack was gorgeous to who had to find him dead in his apartment flat in London 1979 I was 14 what a shame to spend the the other members gorgeous Maggie Bell forget it way better than Janis Joplin more modestly dressed better haircut better voice very similar I don't understand why this band didn't become more well-known United States and why are they not inducted into the Rock and roll Hall of Fame God bless you and yours money does not bring happiness of what happened to Jimmy he had his demons how do you not become famous and stay had a good normal life he would be alive today instead of getting involved in the rock and roll world
James Dewar replaced on bass by Steve Thompson. Not to shabby. Many know Steve from his collaboration with John Mayall, on the "Turning Point" album. Steve with that wicked bass riff on a track called "California."
Billy, Steve was a great replacement for Jimmy who we all know ,well most of us anyway went on to play Bass for Robin Trower until his passing. Two super bass players . Steve also can be heard on many of the tracks on Mayall's Back To The Roots LP.
@@rolandkobelbauer8280 I see , thank you for your answer . Of course , I would like to know the exact brand , for example , Gibson LPG or , for example, Gibson Sj 300, the exact model number .There is usually the name of the company , followed by letters and numbers that indicate all together the exact specification of the model . I assumed that Jimmy played on Telecasters or Stratocasters , but I was probably wrong .
Cletus LaGrange City Texas Jimmy was drop dead gorgeous so is his brother Jack Jimmy is was just young looking granted he was young here but he always had youthful looks must have been 19 or 20 year such a great loss wonder what this song is about seems like it's about having sex with Jimmy it's possible
But not as good as Janis. Really comparing anyone to Janis isn't fair though. No idea why people hear two women sing the blues and have to compare them just because they're white. No one seems to compare either to Big Mamma Thornton, Bessie Smith, Big Maybelle or Mahalia Jackson...
Greetings to the great state of Texas very true I must have been about nine years old when this came out Jimmy was drop dead gorgeous so is his brother this lady never really don't remember hearing about her when I was little phenomenal the span was she was better looking than Janice dressed better better haircut way better performer be yet not very known I don't understand it usually people that are good and attractive don't get any credit people that are truly classy I'm very underestimated just like this band is Jimmy as well phenomenal
