This track was originally by the ‘60’s group Classics IV. Two members of ARS were members of that group and I believe wrote the original… so they’re effectively covering their own material.

[@Vee1music-lover]

Perfect analogy of this group. Pretty underrated but damn they were GREAT! Loved them then and love them now! Like my music loud, gritty, and OLD!‼️✌🏻😎

[@amandathibodeau4996]

So Into You, Imaginary Lover definitely!

[@guykelley8532]

I've seen these Guys in Concert very entertaining...

[@cog4life]

Tommy James and the Shondelles!! Yes!!!! Crystal Blue Persuasion!! Eric Clapton, too! Bring it

[@markb4188]

Love love love this song. This song reminds me of my wife but a girl who rocks my world every night.

[@pattimiranda8679]

Love Atlanta Rhythm Section!

[@teverly5150]

Love Nick's stank face during the solos. They are their own genre.

[@Talentseeker4]

Love your reactions and think you guys will also love 'Who'll be the fool tonight" by the Larsen-Feiten Band.

One of the most underrated guitar solos in rock by Barry Baily (R.I.P.) ARS's most famous song is probably Champaign Jam.

[@marygoodson4920]

Love this song! And Crystal Blue Persuasion is one of my favorite songs ever!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@bryanCJC2105]

"So Into You" and "Imaginary Lover" are other Atlanta Rhythm Section hits. I call this band a "Rock & Soul" group.

[@craigedwards2940]

Don't forget Doraville. 🙂

[@anitamartin4452]

Absolutely!! My two favorites.

[@soniadenison1690]

Absolutely and don't forget Champagne Jam! 🥰

[@kenperkins7921]

You should listen to ther RAW SONG, COCAIN CHARLIE! The Super 70s to a TEe

[@kenperkins7921]

​​@@anitamartin4452 Lead Singer, Ronnie HAMMOND. HE WAS ONE OF THE BEST IN TTHIS 70s BOMBER! And he was a CHICK MAGNET!

[@tommythompson9565]

I just watched y'all's reaction to "So Into You" and had to check out your reaction to this song, too [ thanks to a provided link by a subscriber ]. Both great songs. Both great reactions. On to "Imaginary Lover" and "Champagne Jam." Happy Halloween .

[@brendawoodson3230]

Good taste fellas also try So into you, and Imaginary lover

[@yourebusted5786]

1979 Grant Field/Bobby Dodd Stadium, Georgia Tech. I was there. This song is from the 60s. The Classics IV, which later became Atlanta Rhythm Section, recorded it.

[@williamweiss6128]

Champagne Jam...

[@Alexandrovna97]

"Imaginary Lover" really good stuff as well "So into you". "Georgia Rhythm" listens great on the way home after a hard day at work

[@mikemerck5701]

Check out Large Time from ARS.

[@janetnadeau690]

Three cool guys giving their "Spooky" reactions to this song!

[@williamcabell142]

Rock/Jazz/Funk Fusion...GREAT ICONIC BAND! 😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@BooLarue]

Large Time is a good song. Try it. I was at the concert they are referring to in the song. ARS played in Macon with Lynyrd Skynyrd. Those were the days…..late 70s!

[@RonnieCarter-um1ir]

Check out Traces and Spooky by The Classics Four also.

[@allenlunsford5498]

Black Oak Arkansas another great southern rock band

[@richardparlier3283]

Omg 😲 I just commented on So Into you about the lead guitarist with ARS and Eric!!! Check it out! And the bass guitarist I saw them play in what was called underground Atlanta absolutely awesome solo!!

[@amandathibodeau4996]

So impressed that you know the term alliteration!

[@nancysmith38]

Classics IV (4) version is my favorite-

[@Coowallsky]

Champagne Jam is a worthy listen of these guys.

[@TruthSeeker13]

Southern Rock at its finest 🤘🏼😎

[@yourebusted5786]

If you like Paul Goddard on bass, play "Another Man's Woman" for his bad-ass solo.

[@cdfdesantis699]

Really great cover by the southern legends - ARS. Thanks for your reaction.

[@waynecox3958]

THE BONAFIDE TRUE VERSION OF THIS IS BY THE CLASSICS IV.

[@anthonyblakely399]

It's called the "Double Lead." when two electric guitars harmonize with each other. It's called "Double Lead." And no one today are doing double leads.

[@jadalizmercedes7579]

try ARS 'Shanghai'd' 'another mans woman' 'angel' much more jammin' stuff, their stuff, 'spooky' is a cover

[@michellejones-zu1kq]

Its about a guy who is dating a girl who flirts a lot. He doesn't know where he stands. But he wants more.

[@michellejones-zu1kq]

The spooky part is similar to horse situations. When a horse gets scared it is spooked. The guy is referring to the girl as spooky when they are in situations where she's unsure if even insecure she starts acting spooky.

[@mikemerck5701]

I'm from Atlanta and the Atlanta Rhythm Section/ARS is a great band with a lot of great songs and musicianship. And Spooky is a cover.

[@N_Georgia_Trout]

I've been listening to these guys for going on 55 years. Lived in Chamblee, not too far from them. ARS is one of THE most under=rated bands ever. Over the years, they headlined for some major rock talent. They're still my favorites.

[@teensymom1420]

So Into You and Imaginary Lover are must from this band.

[@EricJohn2008]

These guys were all studio musicians working at Studio One in Doraville, Ga. There are former members of The Classics Four who first recorded the vocal version. Info from a former studio guitarist from Atlanta, Ga.

[@Free-flyBE]

Sadly; keyboardist & founding member & co-writer Dean Daughtry just passed away last week:(

[@kenperkins7921]

He had just retired and had came home to Huntsville, AABAMA AND HE PASSED AWAY AT HOME.

[@conniekat3424]

That's not Rodney on lead vocals...that's the last great Ronnie Hammond...best voice in rock history with the exception of Paul Rodgers (Bad Company) IMO. Some people think ARS's version of this is a cover but technically it's not...Classics IV kinda turned into ARS...producer Buddy Buie & guitarist for both bands JR Cobb wrote the lyrics to Spooky...it was originally just an instrumental

[@beancounter5380]

The tone, the pinch harmonics from Barry on that gold top is….well, gold.

[@lilpoohbear653]

Great band, great song...great reaction guys!! Always been on my permanent playlist

[@stevedem76]

Classics IV put this song on the map, they have a more keyboard friendly version. People already loved this song before ARS attempted it, but both versions are great.

[@jimd1968]

You need to cover Classic IV on this song it's the original group. Your reaction to Year of the Cat is the best. Please take a look at this song by Classic IV. It's the best version and the original version.

[@cog4life]

“IMAGINARY LOVER”…..PLEEZE. 😊

[@AmyW-qo4se]

Good one! On my Halloween play list!

[@tjtampa214]

Killer song. 💜 Love, Love this & glad you got the right video of the performance too! I have listened to this nonstop for days, this and So Into You and Imaginary Lover.

[@davidbordonaro1631]

My late wife and I were married on Halloween day - we danced to this at our wedding . has a special place in my heart .

[@dianegoldeneye7363]

My first marriage ( very young high school sweethearts) was on Halloween 1970. Still friends to this day , just too young. ❤

[@rustyknyffe88]

💔

[@richardparlier3283]

And btw they sounded just as great live as in the studio!!#

[@ChrisKrolak]

Love the song (always have) but what's spooky in this video is the singer putting his face right into the camera most of the time.

[@kken7764]

Dig out the Classic IV's version it is the best in my opinion, but then I'm an oldie too and appreciate them all.

[@dvincentblack]

Okay spooky has nothing to do with the music. The chick is "Spooky." I know you all know the type. Lol. It's like a rollercoaster ride from hell but you never want to get off of it! Lol. 😂😅😮

[@tonythegoodman]

Took my 9 y.o. grandson with me to see ARS at the Hellen Keller festival 9 years ago..They music still sounded so clean after all these years...What a treat for me to carry my grandson with me...

[@cjpew]

For me the Classics IV version is the best - but I love ARS and you guys should check out some of their other songs others have mentioned.

[@thomasbell5417]

Agreed. I remember the Classic IV version when I was still in high school back in 67.

[@frankbaumann1084]

Nice cover, but Yost & Classics IV certainly is Better.

[@scoots66]

ARS is actually a spinoff band from Classics IV. Daughtry & Cobb, who were members of Classics IV were also inaugural members of ARS: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlanta_Rhythm_Section

[@wayfaringstranger8256]

For me, THIS is the definitive version.

[@SquirminHermanthe1eyedGerman]

I was at that concert....it was ARS's Champagne Jam '79 at Grant Field {Georgia Tech Stadium} downtown Atlanta! Also there was Aerosmith, Dixie Dregs, Whiteface, The Cars & another one of my favorite local ATL bands Mother's Finest! ARS have many great songs that you should check out - PEACE LOVE n HIPPYNESS ✌💖☮

[@mikeelko8527]

So into you is the shit by them

[@georgekininmonth2070]

Since you mentioned "Smooth", you should hear smooth by Santana. It's a SMOOOOOOOOOOOOTH song. Trust me.

[@DebraElliott-pn9tq]

Thank you so much for my trip down memory lane, this 65yr. old lady caught major smiles on this one!

[@richardparlier3283]

If that underground concert was recorded please do all of us the honere of listening to that bass solo!!!!!!!

[@robertmiller9207]

I consider them more of a soft rock band. Very EZ to listen to. Great instrumentation and arranging. Vocals are strong yet quite soothing.

[@daledodson1279]

The ARS version is by far the grooviest

[@susanarbogast5224]

Great song! Also loved their song Dog Days.

[@sylviatroy2896]

In this video the lead singer is the late Ronnie Hammond. He's the lead singer on, So into You and Imaginary Lover. You'll like both of those jams.

[@inkey2]

I love the way the dude with the gold Les Paul plays.......squealing , choking notes.....great attack on the instrument.

[@MrDeansamson1]

The link below is a link to April wine being interviewed by some mtv dude. It’s a good watch

[@TheWhanfried]

These studio musicians formed the group.

[@notgivennotgiven7776]

When they toured in Japan, the women over there loved the bass player. And I think he was in the Classics 4 before joining ARS. Peace

[@robinschulze934]

Try “ Imaginary Lover” and “So Into You” !!!

[@kevindavis7620]

Check out “Imaginary Lover” by these guys.

[@deannajones3849]

One of my favorites!

[@JAMESMOORE-gq4vv]

HOMESICK, from one of the original Southern Rock Bands.

[@angelajakem366]

Deep rabbit hole for this band.

[@brucewozniak9473]

So into you, is their top hit.

[@gregrodriguez5697]

These guys were in the group Classics IV

[@sweetjunegirl]

I love this song and the Classic 4's is awesome also.

[@EricJohn2008]

Check out "Champaign Jam" from these guys.They could rock!

[@completecharleston7142]

Two founding members of ARS were also in the group Classics IV, which recorded the original version of this song. Worth a listen!

[@lesliespeck8717]

They were session musicians...but the best.

[@andreaschmall5560]

The original was performed and recorded by The Classics IV and IMO....the better version, although I do like this one too.

[@Zeb-gb2uk]

When your song gets covered by the velvet monkeys you have arrived 😳🤣

[@michaeltipton5500]

I was a teen when this came out. Now 65.

[@jalawoods1192]

Legendary Timeless Music Artist Group 🤩

[@lindastafford9548]

Loved this!

[@non-alphagamer3618]

Atlanta Rhythm Section is a solid band. I have listened to them since way back then and they have never left my playlist. They are great musicians, so their music is always smooth. ARS, Al Stewart, Boston, Boz Scaggs, Steely Dan are the bands that I have consistently listened to the most since the 70s.

[@richg0404]

You mentioned Eric Clapton's "Cocaine" as a similar song. I just want to point out that the song "Cocaine" was written by JJ Cale who does a better version. Very similar but more low key. He has a MASSIVE catalog and would be well worth a dive for you guys. Maybe start with "Cocaine" though

[@sjcantigamente]

A great song to Halloween marathon is the video clip Duran Duran - Night Boat.

[@peterwalsh2470]

"so into you" is their banger that you should check out.

[@danielrustom9732]

And now you know why they are called "ARS"

[@dougreed2257]

Al stewart "road to moscow"next please😊

[@dagmar.6954]

Atlantic Rhythm Section is a great southern rock band from the 70's. Quite a few artists have recorded this song "Spooky". It started out as just an instrumental song in 1967 & lyrics were added later. Atlantic Rhythm Section do a good version of the song in 1979 but the most famous & best version was done by the Classics IV in 1968. The ARS had some great songs such as "I'm Not Gonna Let It Bother Me Tonight", "So Into You", "Imaginary Lover", "Large Time" (tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd), "Do It Or Die" etc.

[@docjavat.v.6007]

It's spooky what a classic this song is 👻

[@odannyboy3338]

Atlantic Rhythm Section is so underrated! Such a great sound, soulful and definitely Southern!

[@sharonstark1014]

Other good songs by Atlanta Rhythm Section are "Do it or Die" and "Champagne Jam."

[@taylortyler1867]

"So Into You" and "Homesick" are 2 other great ARS tunes.

[@taterdawg]

"So into you" and "Imaginary Lover" were huge songs for ARS, but where's the love for "Champagne Jam"? That's their best sleeper banger!

[@GaryColemanNC]

Oh, Lawd... Y'all so young! If you only knew about ARS. 😔

[@markhaus2830]

Great Band! I saw them live a few times.

[@dannymoore6886]

ARS's first hit Doraville came out when I was in the Army stationed in Georgia 1974. It got a lot of airplay because they were from Georgia. Good song.

[@markb4188]

Don’t forget to listen to “Not going to let it bother me tonight”.

[@brucewozniak9473]

I won't let it bother me tonite, is a great tune too.

[@silvercash64]

Great Channel guys and thanks for covering an era for me that is full of fun …..
