Ozark Mountain Daredevils-If You Wanna Get to Heaven

[@obtucewillie]

I don't often listen to the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, but when I do - my neighbors do too.

[@6828Lu]

Lucky neighbors!

[@bobberguy1]

Stay thirsty, my friend.

[@Teresia12]

Mine listen as well although quite often. I'm 62 n they're 30 somethings and now they are fans too. So when I'm not playing their vinyl my neighbors are. And yes vinyl from my teen years.

[@redcaddiedaddie]

... snorted my coffee through my nose, bro! LOLLOLLOL

[@dedduk]

amen on the neighbors !

[@genemullen]

Funny, I haven't heard this song in over 25 years, but I could sing every word.

[@richardkey4289]

Me too! Almost all the words, that is

[@johnsunde4339]

We all heard it in the alley!

[@davidregan9872]

Now 9 years later HERE IT IS AGAIN!

[@chuckchaika7837]

I don’t think it gets any better than this,,, Woo Hoo 🎶💃🏿🕺🏿🎶🎶🕺🏿💃🏿, they’re Awesome!! Jackie Blue is Really Good too!!

[@joanmarkiewicz3042]

You are so right. Joan from NY

[@NachoBuster390]

this was one of my grandpas favorite bands he passed away Monday so this song is for him

[@robinmartz9052]

AWWWW! May he rest easy. I bet he loved you too, Ben! Bless your heart!

[@deborama525]

Blessings for peace and comfort...

[@TenthStudios]

Your Grandpa? Dude!?! Back in the day, these guys were the "Shit"! The old fart had pretty good taste, in the end.

[@TenthStudios]

Yours truly, Grandpa.

[@nickcox3026]

ben Thomas Heard these about 8yrs ago, loved em from the first moment!!!! Dare I say the Ozarks are better than the Eagles....

[@cadillacslim73]

One of the coolest harmonica licks ever … Perfect 💕

[@dkbsoulman]

Why would anyone downvote this? It's an awesome song! Takes me back to my youth. And that harmonica - awesome!

[@MarciaCarolMiller]

These guys make me feel lucky to live in the Ozark Mountains. Growing up, I heard them play all around this area. And their music is now truly classic. Very cool.

[@musiccollector]

One of the greatest songs of the 70's - wait, of all time! This LP is fabulous end to end. Every cut is a gem. Thanks for the memories of 1974.

[@Sagitaricorn]

God bless the Hill Billies from the Ozarks to the Smokies to Ohio, WV, Kentuck, and up through the Northern Appalacians. Great folks!!

[@Superman-zq5ep]

Sagitaricorn For America!

[@Teresia12]

Yes we are TN hillbilly here thank you very much. And dont forget Popcorn Suttons contribution to our KY, WVA, TN state of mind.

[@alankelley5575]

Well, I guess us old codgers can be thankful you young un's got to hear and appreciate some decent music. :) Even if you did hear it first in a game... at least you did hear it. Some of the best music made was from this era.

[@rhysnichols8608]

You don't have to be an old codger to know that the best music is from this era my friend haha

[@mr.warmth1511]

i will show you old

[@alankelley5575]

Well... I'm 62

[@ih1206]

Alan Kelley well you're not wrong. You're from the generation I should've been born in. I'm 24 and heard Nine Pound Hammer's cover of this song. I never heard of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils until now and everything I've clicked on has been right up my alley. Anything classic rock, southern rock, outlaw country, and bluegrass front hat era is my kind of music.

[@dawnwelch6579]

Back in the 70’s I definitely remember this music! I’m 49 now, but when I was a kid, my first stepfather had this vinyl...this and Chicken Train are the ones I remember!!! I hadn’t heard this stuff in AGES...but suddenly tonight I remembered the riffs from Chicken Train, so I ran to KZbin...and OH HOW GOOD IT FELT to hear this stuff again! Seeing now that they also did this song - man, I feel like I am back together again!!! GREAT memories!

[@Helmi1775]

The best song in GTA V

[@あん-n9p]

me too

[@ondras156]

+The Biggest FNaF Expert PL *the best one

[@ondras156]

+The Biggest FNaF Expert PL but which one is better?😀

[@jameslaytonsr.7392]

I know that I partied to the song long time long time.

[@jameslaytonsr.7392]

Thanks for the heads again

[@dereckanthonymolina8183]

Proud to live in Ozark Mo! These boys killed it! I'm still backroading up and down the Finley river and still raising hell!

[@brasso4u]

I'm only 58 and I feel the same way! Good for you, son. This is good music and there is a veritable inexhaustible mine of good music from the past.

[@TheAzmountaineer]

This song is still badass after all these years.

[@robinrose2639]

That brings back such good memories when I was about 13 in Bolingbrook Illinois listening to all the new music .my friends had older siblings. They listened to yall. So I loved it. Being from south eastern KY. I never knew music. Or heard it. It's still the same ol feelings. Pease and Kindness..Robin

[@dresqueda]

They were so great back in the 70s in live concerts. Still great music today!

[@vivinm9640]

❤❤❤

[@cirruscop]

I lived in the Ozarks for ten years, great people and great place to live, Great music to boot!

[@teenonator]

This tune jumped into my mind tonight. I'd forgotten how much fun these guys were. Cool!

[@enzothebaker22]

I quoted this song to my Mom once when I was in my teens and getting chewed out for being too...rowdy. My Mom, the daughter of a Baptist minister replied "Oh really? Well you keep on acting like a fool in this house and I'm going to provide you the opportunity to find out!"

[@jeanniecarle1322]

LOL

[@rosemarydaughter]

Ha-ha-ha******

[@dkbsoulman]

The irony here is that I loved this song as a teenager. I grew up and I still so love this song...and I became a Baptist minister. And I still think this song is awesome. It takes me back to my youth.

[@enzothebaker22]

@@dkbsoulman The Lord moves in mysterious ways, preacher.May He bless you and keep you and may His face shine upon you.

[@dkbsoulman]

@@enzothebaker22 Thank you, my friend, God does indeed work in mysterious ways. And may God's peace reign in your heart.

[@RaatkiRaani]

This brought back sweet memories. First band I ever saw live, over 4 decades ago. Haven't seen or heard the Daredevils since but often think about that Grey Whistle Test concert in London. Thanks to a friend for evoking those memories.

[@dompos8954]

Rebel radio! :D

[@billdogcamp]

im sure that this comment will be reassuring for many out there. I am an 18 year old, and i LOVE music like this! this here is what i like to call, REAL music. not this new age stuff that has no soul, no feeling in it what so ever. as long as i can, im going to keep this music alive! like their album, ALIVE! haha

[@jerrywatkins7851]

great song from my childhood :-) amen to that

[@ricardocerrillo3472]

I sure ain't from the Ozarks...but I'll tell you what...I've loved listening to the DareDevils since day one. Everlasting satisfaction to my ears👍

[@MrAKJonny]

It's amazing that a video game brought people here & introduced millions to this genre. Now that you realize you like this music, explore it.

[@wthjrtx1]

Man, We had the best. Lord I miss it. The Southern Rock seen was just killin it. All us Southern Boys raised HELL! Thank You for postin. I'm callin for a coalition to petition all of our beloved Southern bands to go back down to Muscle Shoals, Lock the doors ,Don't come out till ya got somthin that rocks our asses off again! Now give me a beer and a hairy little beaver!!

[@MsSoozy]

Oh the sweet memories!!!! These guys were in my "record" collection FOR SURE!

[@RobertTKellyJr13]

Witnessed these guys live in 1974 at Ozark Music Festival in Sedalia, Mo.

[@jamesdevoe2372]

I was I was there too it was one of the best moments of my life got messed up they just don't have things like that no more

[@taw31565]

Robert T. Kelly Jr. Hell yeaahhh!!!

[@ronniebeavers9530]

Robert T. Kelly Jr. I fell in love with Ozark BEAUTY QUEEN from Rolla mo. At that festival

[@gailbeckham4977]

Me too!

[@redcaddiedaddie]

Me too! Eagles, Dirt Band, Earl Scruggs- what a weekend!

[@Strongdonk1]

I'm in band with 2 other brothers and we still enjoy slipping this song into the set list on occasion. Lots of fun and the Southern Rockers love it...........

[@JG-ut8ge]

I'm currently deployed and in that time I was doing some genealogy and maybe related to one of the band members. Also I didn't realize it until reading the comments playing GTA V as well. I may have heard this song and not even realized it! This band is good whether I'm related to Michael "Supe" Granda(?) or they have one song in a videogame. I would suggest you guys checkout more of their music! Their entire show on Old Grey Whistle Test 1976is incredible, I'm just learning about them myself. The reason they didn't blow up was they chose to not move to Hollywood and leave their home and families behind. Very respectable in a day in age where people would sell their souls to make it big!

[@shelzmer]

My god havent heard this for so so long, chilling and listening to these guys

[@MYSTICRATTLER]

This was our Class Song in 1974. YUP, YUP

[@slaphappyKat]

1974, I believe. I was stationed at Ft. Carson, Colorado when I first heard this song, and I fell in love with this one & "Chicken Train". They just don't make music like this any more, and that's a shame.

[@Ozarkslover]

I love the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, our hometown favorites! Thanks for bringing back the memories!

[@MagickMusic1]

you just keep lovin the music it doesnt matter what anybody says, Our parents said the same thing about our music in the 70's.

[@ManganeseMan]

what a great jam! great band!

[@mrsbeej11]

what a true story and yes this song was more than likely made before I was born but it rings true for all generations

[@attra91]

Saw these guys back in the day. They were great. Glad to hear they are still around.

[@cardsfanok5]

One of my favorite pick me up songs. I saw the daredevils in 1980 at the Cain's Ballroom in Tulsa Okla. Had a front row TABLE! We used the beer tray to do some seed sifting! They had it all going on that night, first time to see someone play the washboard. They don't make music like this anymore, a true folk, rock icon.

[@gowman813]

Saw 'em in Calgary ('78). Awesome show! I was 16yrs old.

[@ireneparker8995]

As a result of living next door to these guys on Monroe Street in Springfield in 1970, a musician myself, I ended up with a 1.2 GPA at then called Southwest Missouri State. I remember playing my recorder with a couple band members. I also remember playing pinball with lead singer we called Superman. I turned out okay eventually, but would not trade those wild times memories for anything wholesome. They rivaled Jefferson Airplane and The Grateful Dead, I also had the privilege to hear live.

[@Abrohill]

Por fin los encuentro, amazing, hace 40 años los vi en TV una vez y dudaba si habia visto a Black Oak Arkanzas, y buscaba esta música en los álbunes de BOA pero recordaba el nombre Ozark Mountain, y he aqui que si existian, awesome.

[@kevinbowler1103]

i'm here because of tonite's episode of wheel of fortune. :-)

[@lisasweeney3266]

I'm 52 , my brother is 51 & we've always played " who sings this , lol , this was his go to song to trip me up , but I'm on to him , lolol I live 2000 miles away now & I'm still raising HELL !

[@musiccollector]

I have, and LOVE, the entire LP. Wicked harp! Great memories of summer, 1974. Released on April 6, 1974, reaching # 25 on June 29.

[@007captain1]

i have some friends from my home town that did some shows with OMD back around78 ,79 or 80 in flordia.''RIVERSTREET'' was the band. and they told they had a great experience with these guys and they were very humble and talented players. came driving up to the gig in a couple of ford pick-up trucks and a ford econoline van. unloaded their own equipment and set it up with maybe one roadie. sounded great and played even better.

[@lichtenschteinstrass]

Always loved this song if this doesn’t get one up dancing 🕺 💃 nothing will 👍

[@KevinSaundersPaperAirplaneGuru]

Great version with original lyrics. "Find her where she fell"

[@cardsfanok5]

Wow brings back the good memories. I saw them in 1980 at a little place in Tulsa called the Cain's Ballroom. People were siftin seeds off the budweiser trays and rolin j's! They had every kind of instrument you could imagine....even the washboard!

[@H2oRainwitch]

Still love these guys! I wore out an LP, then wore out the 8 track, then wore out the cassette, then....yep...wore out a cd! (someone scratched it and I freaked cuz it skipped on all the good songs..yeah, all of them!) It'll Shine When It Shines, my all time favorite album!

[@cardsfanok5]

Saw them in 1980 at Cain's Balroom in Tulsa, Okla. One of my faves, true rockabilly icons!

[@atomicpunk48]

Good rock 'n roll crosses all the boundaries. I'm from Boston but I grew up lovin this band

[@limabeat]

This the Best song from the 70s! I believe God wants us to enjoy Life! This song is soooo soulful!!!

[@salminella7114]

Missouri's finest.

[@sloopynumber1]

Best song to dance to. Love this band!!

[@kituwahband]

I love the harmonica! I've heard this many times but never knew who sang it until I played.........well you know!

[@CrozetBob]

Saw these boys at the Rainbow in Denver in 1980, they had as much fun as the audience did. Great show!

[@DuckieOnQuack00]

What a fantastic memory drinking beer, skinny-dipping at the old swimming pond listening to OMD. Wore out the old 8 track tape this was on. Great concert at Kansas City breathing in all that wonderful smoke that was floating around.

[@pjb1290]

I heard this song on Supernatural series, OMG! I fell in love with it and I searched for it on SpotiFY. Its catchy! Why have I not heard it long ago???? Good song guys!!

[@maddaddy420]

.I saw these guys in 74 or 75 at the Iowa state fair, had a toe tappin',foot stompin' good time thanks to the Daredevils and MadDog 20/20

[@tinaholcomb1989]

warm summer day cold beer this tune cranked "lets get the party started "

[@stevenmassey7586]

Now let's have some Marshall Tucker band and Allman Bros, James Gang etcetera. 😁

[@JLJameson]

I see that several of you have referred to OMD as a Southern rock band, Well, not really........think Jackie Blue here. They are, much more specifically, an Ozark Mountain rock-fusion band. This is a music found only in a few counties of southwest Missouri, northwest Arkansas and northeast Oklahoma. Started in the 70's, continues today. The Daredevils did a reunion last year in their hometown of Springfield, Missouri and were as good as ever. Everyone was there except Dr. Brayfield. Awesome!!

[@HLS6935]

I love how he calls out the sax guy when the harp man was doing his thing!

[@AnthonyT50]

Saw them live at Hastings (Nebr) College in 1977. Loudest concert I ever attended.

[@jaysheets6561]

can remember going to see these guys back in the day i was in the army. had weekend cq duty had paid another guy to take my place so i could go the the show but didnt clear it with the 1sgt boy did i get my butt chewed out that following monday the had to do cq duty for a month but have to say iot was worth it

[@rhysnichols8608]

Cool experience also thanks for the service

[@Teresia12]

CQ better than cleaning pidgeon shit off the fire exit steps. Miss the 70s. Miss the Air Force and miss my late husband. We met in the Air Force. He from GA and I from TN. Married 32 years. We shared our love for the Daredevils, riding back roads and doing things we shouldn't, especially while in the Air Force if you smell my smoke.
