The 60’s and 70’s were the greatest time period for music. This song is 55 years old and still being listened to and enjoyed just like on day one. Rock on Beth… Much love from Texas ❤❤❤

@roncaffey9667 Год назад

As a 12 year old in 1974 I played drums in an all adult band. Our name was Starlight Arrival. We were a bunch of Americans living in Dubai because our parents worked for oil companies. This song Magic Carpet Ride was our claim to fame in our small community of playing local nightclubs (with my parents permission)and dances at the American school of Dubai. I’m now 61 years old and still play drums. Great reaction and also brought back great memories for me. Thank you Beth. I watch all of your reactions. You’re the best and have an absolutely beautiful smile and personality. I’m a closet vocalist and your vocal tips are priceless ❤

@lakenneth374 Год назад

John Kay was smart, after splitting with his bandmates he let them keep the name Steppenwolf and the right to play his songs in concerts, but he would keep all of the future royalties...well here comes cassettes, CDs and streaming services = made him very wealthy. His old bandmates wanted a cut of the new royalties and sue John, but they lose in court.

@lesschoenberger3070 Год назад

@@lakenneth374 Goldy and Nick used the band name without permission and John and Jerry took them to court and the ruling was they could use the name but give up their rights to any future royalties, plus give John and Jerry a percentage of their income but the "bogus" Steppenwolf bands didn't last long once people knew Kay wasn't the lead singer. And when he hit the road in 1980 as "John Kay & Steppenwolf" he put them out of business for good. And you are very correct, they defintiley lost a LOT of money when CD's came out and the other things you mentioned. I know a lot of people call John "heartless" and cruel for doing this to them, but they agreed to the terms many years ago.

Just absolutely love to see you get into the music and dance around with that hair just tossing around. Also known to be a great pick-up line, "...come with me little girl on a magic carpet ride". To me, Steppenwolf is timeless with their sound that just drives into that wild side we all feel at times. They were to first coin the term "heavy metal" with their song "Born to Be Wild" for the movie Easy Rider.

Wow, I wanted to say I just had a life experience. So this is the first reaction of yours I've ever seen. I've got a small channel myself. I'm disabled & terminal now, but I'm in a good place. Balance is what I had been talking about with my partner on the channel for the last several hours. Doing as much good in your life as bad and everything in between. When you're faced with your own divinity, even though we all are, yet when there's an actual clock put on it, it makes it different and puts things in different perspective. Tool has been a blessing for me, they have literally been my tool. So if you can find your spirituality and peace of mind through metal then that's great. Now, for the reason that I clicked on this video. At 14 years old in the mountains of North Carolina, the Cherokee Appalachian Mountain chain, I was at a bike rally, my 1st concert was at that rally. Foghat, Black foot & Steppenwolf sang this song as the Encore! So on a night I finally found the right words to explain all of my feelings about balance and the world and how it works was profound in itself. Now I'm reflecting on my life and being in a good place now through music. I happened to see the band which was the 1st I had ever seen on your reaction. So halfway through it. You speak about balance being the key to happiness within yourself. So I just wanted to share that because it was very special. Amazing. Whatever the hell you want to call, it was really cool. Kind of validated my own, validity. I subbed, much ♥ ♥

This is the latter line up of the band and John had a certain grit in his younger voice that he lost as he got older . I got to see Steppenwolf twice and it was great ,they are very much part of the innovative late 60s bands ,they were the first real stoner band with great social and political commentary ..

If you like this Beth, you should check out Steppenwolf's 'Renegade': it's based in part on John Kay's experience of being smuggled out of East Germany with his mother as a small child (his birth name was "Joachim Krauledat"). It's not so fast-paced as this, but it's a marvelous, dreamy, reflective piece with an epic intrumental in the middle.

His and the keyboard player’s stage presence is that confidence and fun. I would have definitely paid to see them live back in that era. 60’s-80’s was the greatest era of music EV-ER 👍🏾🇺🇸

The song is about a man convincing a young woman to go with him on a magic carpet ride. My boyfriend and I used to drive his heavy-metal car around Mount Washington with this song playing at full tapped out speaker sounds with the headers open, so the car would echo through the mountains, which was illegal, but nevertheless, even though I get upset with some of the comments I hear from you and others trying to figure out this music I think you for playing this because my boyfriend is gone and you brought back such sweet memories

So effortless. I'm a "dance" DJ. I focus on the early 90's vocal house. Dance music encompasases so many genres. lol. When I'm in the club and I'm doing the 12-1am hour or the last 1-2am hour I'm searching through my record box for songs that have a strong drum beat but also have "stabbing" chords. You don't want anything too melodic and "floaty" as those sorts of songs are used for getting the crowd uplifted to that final hour. Then you can go a bit harder, get people really going and stomping. Djing used to be a skill. Nowadays people turn up with a laptop and a couple of memory sticks and often just play set routines they put together at home. Back in the day I'd take a record box that held about 200 vinyl records even though I'd only play about 20. Anyone can play music to a group of people. A DJ can read the crowd see what they react to then select the songs to keep them up and dancing. A good DJ doesn't choose what to play. They let the crowd energy decide what to play.
