Toy lost both his younger brothers within a month of each other to car accidents. He was also a United States Marine Corps Vietnam War combat vet (WIA). That's him singing with incredible soul and thumb picking that beautiful Gibson Les Paul. Thank you for everything brother. Rest easy.
Yes the trinity of southern rock I like that way of phrasing that way.I noticed a comment adding Charlie Daniel's yes indeed.Plus another one of my favorites the Outlaws
@@williamcabell142 Not all the time. Look at the Allman Brothers. Most of the time they were straight up blues. Seems like they all had their special sound. As far as just country and blues well you are very wrong. I've even picked up some jazz and blue grass tactics at times in southern rock. Really it had more to do with the times. Back in the 70's record companies let the artists be artists.
Try the original studio version of "Heard It in a Love Song": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Eh_UdmNGGFA.html . Very clear lyrics including the classic: "Gonna sneak out that door; couldn't bear to see you cry; I'd stay another year if I saw a teardrop in your eye."
@@michaelasay8587 Mood music. it evokes emotional response. Desperation, turmoil, heartbreak. Angela got it right, focusing on the intro (flute) and the outro (harmonies) Rock n Roll can be at it's best when it mirrors teenage angst. And music is always about individual response. Could be Beethoven. Can be Jay-Z.
Marshall Band was discovered by another band named Wet Willie, the first keyboard is very good friend of mine give them listen they are from Mobile, AL.
The first time I heard this song was like getting hit in the heart by a new, powerful emotion never felt before. A pivotal song in the history of Southern rock.
I was raised on this music. still a great song . Yes Lynyrd Skynyrd , Allman Brothers, great tunes . Marshall Tucker was just the name of the band not anyone's name in the band.
One of my personal biographical songs. MTB was one of the first southern rock bands along with Skynyrd and Allman Bros, but kept it more of a country sound. They also made playing the flute cool in rock music like Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull. Also check out their "Fire on the Mountain", "Heard it in a Love Song".
This was live at The Grand Opera House at Mercer University Macon GA. I have seen them countless times live too. Been so close at the stage LOL felt Toys spit. Sad, he died on cocaine ingestion in 1993. I am a Southern boy born and raise.
Listen to Fire on the Mountain by Marshall Tucker, a country rock version of Hotel California! This band is after Leonard Skynyrd number two of Southern Country Rock bands, yes better than Allman Brothers and that says a lot!
The Marshall Tucker Band - Can't You See ----Lead singer Toy Caldwell was a Marine during the Vietnam War. He was wounded and discharged from service in 1968. The Spartanburg chapter of the Marine Corps League is named the Hutchings-Caldwells Detachment in honor of Toy, his brother Tommy and another Marine, Pvt Nolan Ryan Hutchings, who was killed during the Iraq Invasion in 2003>>>>that is from Wiki. I lived in Greenville S.C. from 2005-2008 and I am a Marine veteran, so I pay attention to that kind of stuff. Liked your reaction.
Never saw this video. Anyway, this was one of their bigger hits for sure. Even though its southern rock, i recall it being on FM radio all the time. Good song👍
There was no band member named "Marshall Tucker". Originally, the band called itself The Toy Factory (named after lead-guitarist Toy Caldwell). But by the time the band released its first album they had become the Marshall Tucker Band. During a radio interview in Hempstead, NY in 1973, Tommy Caldwell explained the origins of the band's name: "There's an old blind dude that tunes pianos, and his name is Marshall Tucker… We didn't name the band after him, but we just kind of liked that name and stuck with it."
Another great review Angela, I love your style! To answer the questions you posed, The "Marshall Tucker" in the band's name does not refer to a band member, rather to a blind piano tuner from Columbia, South Carolina. The lead guitarist and sunger and primaruy song writer for the band was named Toy Caldwell. Sadly he is no longer with us.
Toy last song midnight promises is great he wrote it for his teenage daughter in 93 i think gregg allman sang on it to there the pride an joy of Spartanburg sc
You hid it well on if you liked it. I love this song and if I remember right? He is not the lead singer but the band let him belt it out. You’re Gorgeous and so happy you loved it. Your right great road trip song, either in a car or a Harley. Keep your great work up. Thank you. Steven.
The Name of the Band came from an old blind piano tuner! The Lead Guitarist and Singer on that Song was The Late Great Toy Caldwell, the Main Songwriter, and the Heart & Soul of the MTB! One of the Greatest Southern Rock Bands of the 1970's!
😮I can't believe you've never seen this before. This song has been easily in my top 5 favorites since back in the 70s, and one of my favorite videos since the 80s.
Marshall TUCKER Band was part of the Southern rock Movement. Great Band. Check out other good songs by them "Heard it in a Love Song" and "Fire on the Mountain."
DayOne Reacts, you are correct when you say this band sounds like Lynyrd Skynyrd. The Marshal Tucker band was also from the South and part of what become known as Southern Rock in the 70's. Sadly, Toy Caldwell, the lead singer, passed away shortly after the release of this song and album.
But often it's a gold nugget. You know, for some people it's not gonna hit or out with everybody. I'll route? But a marshall like on a song called virginia virginia by the martin
I used to like this song but that was before one of my old bands decided to cover it just to shut up my old rhythm guitarist..The crowds loved it and we’d get stuck playing it a couple times every weekend night at the bars we’d play in which after so many times just gets annoying lol..This does bring back great memories of being in bands and gigging every weekend..All and all it’s not a bad one I just got sick of it lol
My favorite song by them is Heard It In A Love Song! It's pretty groovy and 🔥 fire! This one you're featuring is very sad with a defeating mindset, but I can understand his situation! Oh boy, relationships can be a BEAR 🐻 from both genders perspectives! Good luck y'all! Just don't settle for an AI girlfriend or boyfriend! See ya!
Hi Ms. D., I love, love this song, did I mention that I love this some.. Brings back feelings for me and a lot of fellows.. 'Gonna find a Hole and crawl inside and die': means find a bar and drink till he passes out.. ♠Mr.G..
How about some Eddie EDRA rabbit he does? I love a rainy night. I love a rainy night. Always have an especially in the summer. Oh it's refreshing I just love the raining out
Also, you know everyone loves bacon it. Love's debate it Hey, you know what? I don't know why no man or just in love with Baton stuff and we're specially like it when we're beating the odds bait. No odds that's a molly hatchet molly hatchet bait the odds
