ELVIN BISHOP - FOOLED AROUND AND FELL IN LOVE | REACTION

[@nrich5127]

The entire performance is so soulful but the lead vocals are on another level .... his timing on the delivery and vibrato are just mind blowing ..

[@jamesfreeman2258]

Ditto

[@caseygleason576]

That's Micky Thomas singing. He was Elvin's backup singer and after Elvin wrote this he realized he couldn't do the song justice, so he had Micky sing it. And then the next thing you know Jefferson Starship hires him as their new lead singer because Grace Slick was wasted so often they couldn't count on her any more, and he sounded quite a bit like her. The song "Jane" by Jefferson Starship was one of my faves. Then Grace got clean and they ended up singing a lot of stuff together, including some pretty irritating 80's fluff like "We Built This City" and others.

[@christopherpilkington8375]

Mickey Thomas is actually a backup singer in this band. Elvin Bishop is the guitarist with the badge on. He didn’t have the vocal range for the song so he gave Mickey the lead. This song propelled Mickey to the lead vocal in Starship.

Thanks that was confusing me, Micky was in Jeffersom after this, thanks for the info.

I can't remember but... Thomas looks older there but I think he was in his teens when he sang this song?

Fun story: I was browsing your videos with my dad (70) when he was visiting a few days ago. He saw this song and said, “hey that’s my college roommate - let’s watch that one”. His roommate in college was Mickey Thomas, who sang lead on this track. Eventually Mickey joined Jefferson Airplane and sang/wrote big hits for them as Jefferson Starship/Starship, but I never knew he sang this tune. My dad saw him play a few months ago and got to go backstage and the two caught up for a while and had some laughs...it had been nearly 50 years since they had hung out.. edit - my dad said he can still hit all those notes at 70

A few years ago one of my best friends passed away. He always told me that if something should happen to him he wanted me to have his music collection. While some greedy relatives got involved, I only ended up with a fraction of his music. However while going thru the boxes, I discovered the entire "Midnight Special" video collection. Thankfully a few years earlier he had given me his extensive vinyl collection. R.I.P. Ric, not a day goes by that I don't miss and think of you.

[@mtnbikertx6134]

The story behind this is Mickey Thomas was in the same studio recording, and Elvin Bishop was playing this but just could not get the vocal down. Mickey heard it down the hall and popped in and asked Elvin if he could give it a shot. He did and nailed it perfectly. It took off and it showcased Mickey's voice and Elvin's guitar together even today they both still play together..

[@timvest8141]

That's just a story. Mickey was a backup singer for Elvin who wrote the song but thought his vocals were too raspy so he got Mickey to sing it.

[@mikehawkins4752]

I was wondering. Mickey looks a lot like Burton Cummings.

[@gevlar]

As Charlie Daniels said, “Elvin Bishop sitting on a bale of hay, he ain’t good lookin’ but he sure can play”. It’s hard to believe, but back then The Midnight Special & Saturday Night Live were about the only places to actually see the artists you heard all the time on the radio, except for maybe some music variety shows. This was way before MTV.

david walker Yeah, and another great Gino Vannelli song to react to would be a live version of Brother to Brother.

Magnet and steel great song. Lead singer had a look a little before his time.

Music was just better back in the day.

You had me almost falling off he chair laughing when you said at 3:18 that Mickey Thomas' outfit made him look like after he finished singing, he was going to go change the oil on the car in a gas station! Great stuff! By the way, your comparison to Mungo Jerry's sideburns to Kareem's Lew Alcindor era sideburns was priceless. You have great comedic timing!

[@drcornelius8275]

When you started to describe those outfits, I spit my soda out all over my keyboard. Too funny my man!
