Average White Band live at Montreux 1977, featuring Hamish Stuart.

[@tomrawley6549]

hamish stuart is still singing this classic, still touring, still showing his class, a one off, the best soul/funk singer to come out of scotland bar none.

[@annesanders4201]

That is some serious funk, loose and tight at the same time....

[@whosoever9198]

Wow! I remember this song on the 70’s when I was a tween. It still stands up today!

[@rickykenny4257]

Stevie Wonder said it best; music is an universal language , and Average White Band from Scotland stabilized that statement! Nothing average about this band, one of the all time great bands! 🎷🎺🥁🎸🎹🎼🎵🎶🎙🎤

[@allen6924]

They were the truth. No band could out funky them. Just one of the best bands out there. Damn they were funky.

[@murraykins1952]

One of my favourite tracks, those vocals are so on point.

[@KLIPAMSoulRadioStation]

Love how AWB slows down the rhythm - bass line and drums dripping big and slow like molasses. Nice.

[@Below-Average_Joe]

KLIP1220 AM Soul Radio Station , slowing down was AWB’s secret weapon.

[@herberthoward2077]

Saw them at fast lanes with my cousins in Asbury Park 1980. Sounded as good when I heard them on the radio in 73 when I was a sophomore in high school. Every body thought they were black. Soul is from the heart. One of my best funk and soul bands.

[@jazzfusionaire]

Funk From Scotland! Killin' It! Hard!

[@michaelwoodard726]

Scotland ain't that a blip, very funky.

[@geminigrrl66]

100% pure grade A funk. No additives, fillers or auto-tune. Remember listening to these guys on KGFJ in LA back in the day. My dad still has this on vinyl.

[@donguiddodilozzo1906]

I do still have the vinyl as well 🙂

[@citydrums7525]

The vinyl's probably worth a lot...

This funky sound came out of Scotland, Scotland? Can you believe it? I certainly didn't, when I first heard AWB, I thought they were a group from Philadelphia, they had that Philly groove.

True BlueEye SOUL 2023 JAMS on the One.

[@K.J.734]

I was 14 when this came out & right away I was blown away by the drummer, Steve Ferrone & bassist, Alan Gorrie. I loved the whole album & then the following year, in '75, Bowie, along with some great players, including David Sanborn on sax, released Young Americans. I miss my old final collection. It was kinda like a point of pride among my friends and me to see who could come up with the coolest new album every month or two. This was my '74 pick. for the year 🤟❤

[@scottysfishinss]

Had the pleasure of seeing them at the Concord Pavilion in California. Amazing Live. Have been a fan from the beginning. Pick up the pieces forward.

I went to the AWB concert in San Diego back in 1970-something. My date, Peggy, looked like Lauren Bacall! I remember dancing with her in the isle. My father dropped us off at the SD Sports Arena for the show. I couldn’t drive yet. Good times!!!!!

Another incredible band from an incredible era…AWB STILL, can rock the house!!! They continue to tour this very day. As with most 70’s bands, they are minus all of they original members…but they groove is always hot! Those of us who grew up during the 70’s are spoiled rotten, when it comes to music…it was and still is…the best! 🕶🥁🎶🎼🎵🎤🎸🎹🎭

So about five years ago I met a friend of my wife's who was Scottish. Like off the boat Scottish. We started talking about music and AWB was mentioned. He said something like, "Another fine Scottish band," and I laughed, because I thought he was joking. And he's just looking at me, until I realized he wasn't. And I was like, "GTFO." I had NO idea.

RIP Malcolm (Molly) Duncan AWB October 8th 2019

[@o.b.v.i.u.s]

😢

[@cd5340]

I didn't realize that he passed away. I last saw AWB in Orlando, at the House of Blues in the late 90s. I think they were promoting their Soul Tattoo album. At one point, I had noticed he was in the audience area near the bar. I briefly spoke to him, and complemented him and his band. He was so gracious, and humble! He seemed very laid back and at ease. He related a few things to me, and I remember his very heavy Scottish accent. Their music was awesome! So yes, RIP Malcolm (Molly) Duncan.

[@cd5340]

Correction:. It was Onnie McIntire, the rhythm guitar player, I was referencing in my last comment, not Malcolm Duncan. I got their names mixed up. Nevertheless, RIP MALCOLM (Molly) Duncan.

[@cheesetoast8312]

These guys have always been down for the movement. I saw them so many times as a kid and they were as kind and appreciative of our people welcoming them so hard. Guys from Europe never fully understood the confederacy crap that caused such a divide in this country but at every Kool Jazz Fest they showed out in outstanding fashion.

[@chrisjackson1733]

I live in Atlanta I just saw them last night with Jodie Whatley. AWB brought back a lot of memories man they were still performing well
