(FIRST TIME HEARING) Marshall Tucker Band | Fire On The Mountain | Reaction Video

[@patwood4990]

Favorite group since the 60's when this band was called Toy Factory. Toy Caldwell wrote 95% of the songs and said he could hear the arrangements in his head! Also, he never spent days writing the songs, only like minutes,, because he said the spontaneous songs kept more of the meaning. Also, this band tried to record "live" because they didn't like dubbing. Wow! Today's so called bands can't come close to the southern boys and southern country rock, as Toy called it in an interview.

[@christinadiane4257]

Marshall Tucker Band Take the Highway This old Cowboy

[@skydogfan4671]

The Marshall Tucker Band was a great band. I recommend listening to This Ole Cowboy by them. Studio version.

[@StevenEverett7]

It's always a pleasure to listen to The Marshall Tucker Band. A little country, a little rock, maybe a dash of blues. Really tasty! Thanks DramaSydE. Cheers, Steve

[@MonicaDBrini]

It just feels like home

[@raymondreid4987]

I was born in Texas in the Rio Grand Valley and we have a saying born in Texas Die in Texas and I will be buried in Texas. Our country music is a rich history and our southern rock.

[@TheKayzieMichelle]

You can watch a beautiful live rendition. It’s the Grand Ole Opera 1973 show. It’s awesome.

[@sonorandesert3491]

Hey DramaSyde, I am right there with you - I also have Cherokee in my blood and I truly believe are people are finding each other in this world through this music! I found your channel through the Curtis Lowe video retraction you did. These are the songs I grew up listening to as a kid. I go back to them for the same reasons you say you enjoy listening to them! It’s more of a better place in time that makes me feel okay again vs in the times we are living in now. I cannot wait to hear the rest of your life story my friend! Thank you for speaking up and sharing as it is letting me know I have a kindred spirit out there feeling much in the same way I am in this crazy ass world we are living in now. You have a friend here - I appreciate you!

[@NG-Lespaul]

Tucker was BADASS!!! 73-80' is great and the first 4 albums are AWESOME!!!!

[@annalykins1579]

American by birth, Southern by the Grace of God❤️✌️😁

[@marcduclos9789]

I am 60-1/2 y old now and Marshall Tucker was big for me coming up in the 70s 80s. I got lost in the rat race being a brick and stone mason. Today I have the time to learn to listen a listen to learn. When you say true stuff I get to lean forward and say I could be this guys friend threw thick and thin coming up. You know 10,000 may fall around you and you don't have to be in that mix. My boxing coach would always say a 1/4 miss is as good as a mile. Your grand mother story is wicked cool.

[@gregwatts8508]

Great song,by an very talented, but underrated band

[@ritahopkins8544]

I totally understand! At 68, I grew up on all genres. music speaks!!. ❤

[@michaelkeefe8494]

The Caldwell boys, Spartanburg South Carolina. Top four on that playlist are all great. Toy (guitar, vocal) passed away at 45, brother Tommy (bass) at 30.

[@GuinsWIN1]

Heard It in a Love Song is great too

[@katrina7940]

“Did I mention I was a Carolina boy?” 😂😂😂

[@shirleymongold9491]

Growing up around Cherokee NC, music was just part of life. Impromptu gatherings on porches and somebody always singing or playing and instrument. Gospel, folk, blues, lots of harmony. That stuff never leaves me even tho I've lived all over the world

[@johnkendall6558]

Spartanburg SC - we call them "The Home Team"

[@scottmcintosh1636]

Throughly enjoy your videos

[@cathybrown1910]

One of my all time favs Thank You

[@cmstand]

Wish I had a dollar for every time I played this song! One of my favorites. Saw MTB in New Orleans when they opened for Allman Brothers in early 70’s. Fire!

[@donaldtorrencejr5798]

Toy Caldwell.... Miss him daily.

[@frndofbear]

Thank you, THANK YOU. Thank you and all the kids taking those of us who listened to this music in high school on the journey of experiencing it again for the first time.

[@bespoke6719]

When I started watching reaction videos I watched all of them but now I've narrowed down to 3 and your the number 1!!!! Your my brother from another mother!!! Much love brother....

[@IKenichiSmithI]

I love Marshall Tucker Band a buddy of mines daddy who we called papa jig introduced me to them by far my favorite of theirs is desert skies.

[@rondawildey5801]

There is nothing like southern rock...

[@brewswillis9783]

Appreciate the heartfelt sharing, glad to be with you on this journey.

[@bluesrock1]

I always wondered how a bunch of fellas from Spartranburg, SC could write so many cowboy songs? Can't be mad at em, though. Always liked MT. Toy Caldwell is very much overlooked in that era of great guitarists. He could pick!

[@bugvswindshield]

Bravo good sir Bravo. MTB is great. This old cowboy. Great great song. My fav.

[@raymondreid4987]

That steel lap guitar just drives the song so much emotion.

[@emilyflotilla931]

Those fiddles curl my toes!

[@coolasbeans]

Love this song . Thank you !

[@tgwife1964]

This song was written for Charlie Daniels' album "Fire On The Mountain" because the two were very close. Charlie Daniels said thank you, he wanted to use his own material, so The Marshall Tucker Recorded for themselves.

[@anitamorgan366]

Beautiful reaction. Your heart sways with the music its showing in your response loved it

[@DramaSydETV]

Thank you so much!!

[@loupi4bama]

Over my 62 yrs of life, the bagillion songs I've heard, the bagillion songs I've performed live, the intro to this song is one of my top faves.

[@hah3456]

Southerners can all connect to each other no matter race or class, because we have such a shared cultural experience. God bless you

[@charlesbishop4000]

James Taylor... "Carolina In My Mind." It is a must. You would love it!

[@1bigrowdy]

Please watch Muscle Shoals it will enrich your music IQ

[@jamesreagle245]

This song speaks to human greed + beautiful and sad who we are.

[@keithetherington4824]

I still have all there albums on vinyl. They have been in my life for over 45 years.

[@sharipetkovsek5502]

Happy to know someone feels what I feel with this song. Also, Marshall Tucker has been long drive essential for me for years! Pop in the cassette and drive up through the mountains and lakes of upstate NY

[@clintwaddell4482]

You're correct. Throw their music in, put ot the cruise control on, roll down the window and cruise down the road without a care.

[@viking0079]

Classic song of teenage years, took me back to driving down a gravel road in my Ford

[@jamestate5059]

Listen to the song Am I Losin by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Ed King said he tuned his guitar and played it like the Marshal Tucker Band in the solo as a tribute to Marshal Tucker Band. Once you hear it you can not unhear it

[@MegaEaglelover]

Loooooong Road Trip Music Right Here Y’all 🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼🤠😳🎶🎧🎸🎤🎶🎧🎸🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜

[@crystalprice7858]

I understand where you’re coming from, with your love of music. It can take me to another place and time. Sometimes joyful, sometimes very painful, but always moving. It gets down in your soul and won’t let go.

[@tjhorne82]

One band just came to mind that you may enjoy. Check out the Carolina Chocolate Drops and listen to "Cornbread and Butterbeans"

[@kathyfarrow309]

Preach brother preach! Love the channel love the attitude. Keep up the great work!

[@Cashcrop54]

This song is totally bringing back memories. Top line pickers. Thanks for doing them!

[@keithetherington4824]

You have just started on Marshall Tucker Band. I've seen them live twice in the 70's. They have a style that most southern rock bands don't have. They were very unique in their style of playing and writing music. I love this band, many of the original band members are gone but not forgot by me.

[@Acoustic_strings]

I have listened to this song for maybe 35 years and this is the first time that the opening beat reminds me of a horse trotting on a dirt road.

[@erinobenchain5160]

It's definitely the feelings/memories that these songs awaken that make them so great to me! Love it!

[@NG-Lespaul]

Many people don't know that the writer of this song George McCorkle(rhythm guitar) first offered this song to Charlie Daniels for his album of the same title but Charlie respectfully declined. Kinda cool

[@deannacrownover3]

Brother, this music is more precious to us Southerners now then when it first was released! It reflects a way of life, a mindset and a freedom that we are fighting desperately to hold on to. Southern Rock feels like the last Bastion of freedom in an insane world. Yes, life is hard in the South and always has been. However, we have a deep, ingrained culture that binds us together through our faith, our manners, our cooking, our word on a handshake and even our Strange language that people don't understand! Oh...and we will overcome those hardships together, like we always have.

[@raymcarthur3870]

This song puts you right in the middle of that California Gold Rush!

[@Smootman1]

Skynyrd, Charlie Daniels Band (CDB) and Marshall Tucker Band were trailblazers in Southern Rock. Do some CDB. Start with Legend of Wooly Swamp, Devil Went Down To Georgia or Saddle Tramp.

[@rickb4079]

Your good man thats been on a hard journey my friend, I feel your pain. Love to listen to your story. Keep it up your helping someone that needs it. Thanks.

[@thereseerickson7462]

I love your reactions! The sharing of how the music hits you emotionally makes them even better. Music is so powerful. One of my favorite MTB songs is, Heard it in a Love Song! This has been great hearing these great bands again.

[@LEO1WOLF]

"Heard It In a Love Song" is one of my all-time Fave's from them. I'll tell you what, I wish more REAL people would be more forthcoming in their own life experiences like you do. I not only learn, but I can relate on some levels too. Do we have a like upbringing, even the on the remotest of levels? Probably not. I could sit right next to you at a bar counter of any kind & listen to your stories for hours Pal. I'd be honored if one day down the road, something in this twisted world would allow that to happen. Two cool cats from two different backgrounds, kicking a couple drinks back & just shooting the shit. Anyway, PEACE to you & man, your story sure tugs at the heart-strings Bro (kinda' like a good Fender).

[@LEO1WOLF]

(You mentioned you're from Carolina, "Heard It In a Love Song" is from Carolina Dreams)

[@stanrock2225]

MTB legendary

[@phyllisb4634]

They were my go to road trip music back in the day. Very underrated. You explained perfectly why they have always struck a chord in my soul.

[@keithetherington4824]

Both my grandmothers are 100% Cherokee, I've always been proud of my heritage. Good for you for explaining your story.

[@rockinredneck57]

You've gotta check our Bob Away My Blues by Marshall Tucker. You'll love it.

[@generichardson4771]

to me its the story thy tell

[@joeschmitz11]

24 hours at a time (live feat Charlie Daniels from the volunteer jam) is a absolute must!

[@Gashouse69]

You and I share many things in common Drama. My love of music comes from my mother through her mother as well. I'm born and raised in NC just North of the SC state line. I'm half Tarheel and half Sandlapper I've always said. Your reaction to this song is dead on. It is a open highway, windows down kind of song. But it isn't your 1st time hearing the Marshall Tucker Band. You reacted to Can't You See a few days ago.

[@DramaSydETV]

I’ll reiterate again, this in fact was the first Marshall Tucker Band video I did, it was originally blocked by KZbin and magically appeared today, though it still says it’s blocked for me. I can provide screenshot if need be. I never lie to the people

[@Gashouse69]

@@DramaSydETV I apologize if I came across wrong. It's the reason I hate the written word, it can lack context at times. I wasn't trying to infer that you were lying. I just assumed you didn't immediately realize the earlier song was by them as well. I remembered you liking it too and was merely attempting to remind you. I didn't realize this one was actually the 1st, was blocked, then reappeared. It shows todays date which added to my confusion as well. It was a simple misunderstanding and the questioning of your character was never my intention. I've been watching you too long to think you are anything but honorable. Please accept my apologies.

[@mng7096]

Brother Cain-Got no shame. I opened for them back in the day

[@rockinredneck57]

Lead guitar player Toy Caldwell plays pedal steel guitar on this.

[@deannacrownover3]

You'll love this band! You're a Southern Rock kinda guy!

[@TheJakeUtube]

Virginia is highly underrated. it's on the same album as this song. It portrays a different style but they really do it well.

[@ad9aggie]

As a displaced country boy, you have an understanding of music that many of us Military/Overseas Brats have. It takes us back to places/people we've been/known. Music is a very powerful memory trigger, good or bad, and it can instantly remind of you of something you had not thought of for years/decades. This is some of the music I grew up with in Germany, and it always brings back those memories. Thank you for sharing your memory of your grandmother and making that connection. You're right, I subscribed because it is easy to see you don't just listen to the music, you also feel it.

[@Frankincensedjb123]

Testify!

[@mookie7688]

Love and appreciate your genuine perspective. This Ol' Cowboy is another great groove track, a little more on the jazzy side.

[@IPfreely333]

"Desert Skies" and "See You Later, I'm Gone" are 2 of my fav MTB songs.

[@paulstewart6203]

Yes, great songs. I still have the record "Carolina dreams" I bought in early 80s.

[@mrtoad8585]

I could listen to see ya later I’m gone all the time

[@debvit2353]

Loving listening to this. It’s been a while.

[@robhaunui3343]

Apart from The Allman Brothers Band,The Marshall Tucker Band would have to be my pick as the best representatives of the Southern Rock genre. Pick any of their albums between 1973 and 1981,and you will not be disappointed in any track. If youre from Carolina,then you'll love their "Carolina Dreams" album from 1977,especially the track "I Should've Never Started Loving You",but if you want a real tear-jerker ballad,you have to listen to "Asking Too Much Of You" from 1978s "Together Forever - vocalist Doug Gray is in his realm.Something a bit more upbeat,you gotta listen to "Ramblin" live from their 1974 album "Where We All Belong",but the list could go on and on - regardless,its a journey you will enjoy,especially getting to know the late great Toy Caldwells expressive guitar work.

[@annkline6183]

Yes it

[@SicSemperTyrannis74]

You nailed it bro. I'm born n from Macon GA. Home to Capricorn Records at the time so I had a front row seat to all the action. Toy and Duane could tear a place down by themselves. The bands were just beyond words

[@cornbread6616]

I dig it, man. 👍
