[@yuenthem7662]

THIS is my very favorite BLACKFOOT Track - and I have ALL their wonderful albums - Just can't get enough of them - Guitar magic as it should be played, and songs as they should be sung, straight from the quickened pulse - Long Live Blackfoot!!!!

[@neurosis333]

AWESOME!!! GREAT voice and HIGHLY UNDERRATED!!!

[@willstill7233]

2020 and Blackfoot is still kicking ass and taking names

[@kjellesperas5132]

Are they still rpckin' ????

[@scrapeyhawkins5299]

No...they are NOT

[@willstill7233]

Meaning that they still rock

Totally different personel.

I sure do miss the 70s and 80s. The music today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?

[@jkalewine]

One of their best albums....period.

[@jaxflfreebird]

Suck It Or Get Out. SIOGO. Classy band.

[@Metalmelting]

Dedicated to Rickey Medlocke and the Blackfooties for create the Best Southern Rock Band (I like them more than the Skynyrds)since I was a teenager. Thanks So Much !!!Salud y Vida Pa'lante !!! Cheers and Life On !!!

[@fidodido664]

Great song. That's how great songs work, they last forever.

[@zarkopetrovic7472]

God, how I love this song... it takes me back to my teenage 80s! Thanks for the video👍

[@MarkBoyd]

GREAT track from their most underrated album, featuring Ken Hensley of Uriah Heep fame. Man this was a really cool album. Because of my age, it is the one that introduced me to their superior back catalogue. This was still a great album, though, and this song was, I believe, a bit to real to be consumed by the masses. Viva Blackfoot...forever my Southern Jam.

Seen Blackfoot 6 times too , Love Blackfoot and Ricky ✌️👀✌️ Medlock

First time I saw this video was back in the 80s on U68 in NYC. Memories.

[@janispetku4450]

Excellent. One of all time favourites in 80's

[@myerkord]

Great Band 👍 Great Record 1983 Siogo with Ken Hensley on the Keys

[@doomguy1430]

Masterpiece on 2021 and forever!!!

[@IamLamech]

Stumbled across this while down a Uriah Heep rabbit hole this evening. Wow. Need to check out more Blackfoot!

[@DavidRagan3134]

I love the super heavy Marauder, but I like this song and "Morning Dew," too. Completely different sound, but still great!

[@DavidRagan3134]

Also, "Send Me an Angel" is probably Blackfoot's best song. The power is insane, and Hensley's keys add to it.

[@holderi8893]

Use to love them back i the 80's . Fantastic vokal. Think i've still got all the LP 👊👊👊👊

[@RorysStrat]

RIP Jackson!!!! Best Drummer EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@brianwood7369]

Years since i istened to Blackfoot. PROPER ROCK MUSIC.

[@ArxisRolo]

Siempre e Sido un fan del metal, más sin embargo desde que descubrí a fondo el southern rock, estoy conmocionado ! Es mi género favorito y está banda en particular... Excelente !!!

[@francescodellasegna6891]

Lo mismo por acá. La energía y presencia del Southern Rock es incomparable. Tiene más bolas que el Metal (de donde me inicié en el rock) debo reconocer jajajaja. Lynyrd Skynyrd se convirtió en mi banda favorita y Blackfoot no lo hace menos. Y los discos de Skynyrd con Medlocke tienen mucho power; escucha el God and Guns de Lynyrd Skynyrd donde el toca guitarra y también hace algunas voces y coros.

[@AMCmachine]

Dad in the rocking chair with the pipe....: D : ) I remember this chestnut well from the U-68 Power Hour.

[@zakharegorov3232]

Sometimes i think music is dead cause we still don't understand how many great songs people did before

[@vaarakuningas]

That's true..

[@katherineskrzynecki3347]

Truth!

[@davidjenkins2691]

Blackfoot added keyboards WAY before 38 Special. Yet, they both kept the southern rock flavor. Now I think Ricky is with Skynard, good catch by those guys.

[@carolinacordoba7325]

Me identifico con esta csncion y vibra mi alma y mi espiritu con ella

Love this! 😘

[@zancraft7865]

Blackfoot as an entire band was underrated. They are up there with Skynyrd Hatchet and Almond brothers. Of course this song isn't one of there best.

[@SlotraceDK]

Siogo is simply their best album! I’m glad Ken Hensley is on that album too!

[@gabriela87325]

emblemática para mi esa canción, resulta todavía me acuerdo del disco de acetato llamado heavy metal del año 1984, con los que compartieron créditos con grupos como dokken, ac/dc, motley crue, inclusive el mismísimo foreigner, van halen, zebra, zztop, vanderberg, axe, y kix, simplemente grandes recuerdos

[@pepegudino264]

[@annemarie5273]

Love Rickey Medlock! Awesome guitarist. THE last surviving member of Lynyrd Skynyrd

[@CraigSvoboda]

Huh?

[@jaxflfreebird]

@@CraigSvoboda Rickey played drums on the Complete Muscle Shoals album and he sang four songs. Rickey and Greg T Walker both needed a job when Blackfoot ran out of gigs to play. So they ran to Ronnie, the smart singer/manager of Skynyrd. Ronnie hired the guys on the record. Greg T Walker played bass and his bass parts replaced the bass parts of Larry Junstrom, who moved on to 38 Special. But I'm sure Larry had many lean years in between.
