I remember watching the All-Star game on TV when he hit it

This could bring tears to a glass eye. Texas. Rest in peace

Thats actually a pretty good compromise right there...

1:52: Actually, this doesn’t give Hudson enough credit. Maybe that’s the only sound JOHN SIMON could make, but Hudson was a fine horn player.

1:54 rest in peace Garth!

Rest in peace to all of them. Garth, you get the spotlight today. "As you were..."

I remember Mr. October hitting 3 HRs in the WS against the hated Dodgers. I was just a kid and I was yelling and jumping around. I don’t see personalities like him anymore.

Absolutely one of the best and most original groups to ever exist. The way they played every damn instrument ever made and the three different vocals with Rick , Richard and Levon were the most amazing and beautiful voices ever recorded. I've been a fan since I was first introduced and I'm 58 now and 4 plus decades they never get old.

Watching baseball since 1967 Thats the hardest ball ive ever seen hit.

That ball was rising when it hit the transformer. If it happened hit anything. Theres no telling where that ball would of landed.

This is one of those unbelievable, rarely captured performances, palpably off the charts energy. But just now, listening to it again on my crappy phone speaker and it's just jumping off the stage. It hits revival level energy at least half a dozen times. And you can still get a copy of it with that original cover. Probably worth being in anyone's library. It wears well.

I still think Reggie paid Dock to serve up this helping of deliciousness.

He signed the album for my dad years ago, it it on my wall framed. so many awesome memories

Proud People! Both sides.

He said he loves the crepe suzzete but nobody noticed, then refused to say he loves crepes 😂

In a game that included home runs by HOFers Aaron, Bench, Clemente, Frank Robinson and Killebrew, it was Reggie’s mammoth blast that was the talk of the game. While his time in NY cemented his legend, it was this HR that brought him to the attention of the public.

Bill mi porta sempre dove non sono mai stato

You gotta love Reggie

Great Artist, forever and ever ! Rip Rick !

19 best album ive ever had played it to there was no grooves left

Wow, I'd never heard this version. Glad KZbin suggested it after my vid (I did a remix of the original version ten years ago). This version is great. That opening kicks!

Homerun distance calculations are not to be trusted.

Reggie’s feet were off balance when he hit that ball

Back when baseball was everything

Guess where the ball is...

for those of you who use the argument "yeah but he was strikeout king" let me just tell you that 19 of the 25 all time leaders in career strikeouts are in the HOF.............

Reporter: Reggie, I tell ya', that was quite a shot, that was quite a shot. Reggie Jackson: Thank you. Wait until you see what I've got for you the next three seasons. And you're not even going to believe the show you'll see in October of 1977. 😀

Remember watching this as a 9 year old kid. Still amazed 53 years later

The quickest bat flip of all time. 😮

Anyone listening to this in 2024, good on ya…you know where it’s at…Bunch of Ontario boys and Leon.

Lyrics by the late, great Vivian Stanshall.

So did Killibrew

Boog Powell dud it!

Off the light tower

The wind that night was 35mph blowing out to right field. That will give a fly ball some distance.

Why is this LP not available on Apple Music or Spotify?

That ball was “CRUSHED”! No doubt when it left the bat. If it wasn’t for the light tower the ball would have kept going. He had a great career, but especially with the Yankees. Ask the Dodgers… Mr. October!

To bad money took over the game , so gems like Tiger Stadium no longer exist and players jump from one team to the other with zero loyalty. I can probably still name 20 out of the 25 68 Tigers but don't know 3 from the current team

Big deal ! Reggie stands there looking at the ball , showing up the pitcher and thinks he is Babe Ruth or something . Reggie helped pave the way for arrogant ballplayers like Dave Winfield , Ricky Henderson and Roger Clemons .

Every player that ever came out of Pittsburgh was always high.

Doc

Those A's uniforms were great

Doc was on an LSD trip during this game. True story.

The beginning of Reggie’s legacy.

Rest in blessed Peace, my precious friend.

Every aspect of this is awesome. Where are the 231,978 constant stats that are usually on the screen and that fucking insulting, video game, strike zone overlay that is on the live broadcast? Disgrace.

Luis Aparicio was near the end of his stellar career in 71. I was surprised to hear his name.. He was short stop for my beloved 59 White Sox. He and Nellie Fox were a premier double play duo. He's still alive (2024) and 90 years old.

Johnny Bench called the pitch

His swing was absolutely amazing and sooo faaast

I seen it on tv when it happened!
