The more I hear the new stuff they call music the more I keep going back to my time in the 60,s and 70,s to listen to real music that touch the soul .

[@user-uk6tc1em8y]

Timeless, right?

Watching Solid Gold on Saturday night made my childhood so much better

[@paultreadaway102]

Solid Gold we had it in this bottom island country of the World 🌍 we only had 2channels.Like the other Music Shows so fantastic to see them live on stage an audience to the World 🌍 we viewed like this and so many Artists played on.Firefall what a massive Band setup with the ballads this so catchy they could be a Supergroup some of the guys would helped many others over the years.This could have been so much longer but a huge hit otherwise

[@dawnmason4062]

GREAT SONG !! FANTASTIC GROUP !! THE 70'S HAD SOME OF THE BEST MUSIC !! LOVE THIS SONG 💙💙💙💙

I just think this is the most beautiful song ever. I will always stop and appreciate it every time I hear it.

[@robertfeinberg748]

Cheryl, I had this going on in my head today. Reminds me of Still the One, and What you're doin' doin' me with your love, songs I was hearing while driving in LA in the '80s.

[@robertfeinberg748]

Also, You are the Woman, which I see in the Queue. These are all classics, speaking of which, Classics Four and Traces of Love.

pondering this so called life we are in that has become nothing but dark times and remembering the way it used to be, I weep for the times we have lost, so much loss, all the moments, gone in the blink of an eye, it is over

[@jamisondean9385]

Dark Skies, I feel your pain cause I too miss they way it used to be and when music was music and not the crap that it is today. But life is a gift and there are better things ahead. Would be happy to talk about it more if your interested

[@lisaanndavis3289]

I grew up in a cult. My times sucked. I think the entire point is to listen & hear/believe the lyrics of this song.

[@dawnmason4062]

Got through many hard moments with this song- this is when music was good!

[@chriswylie253]

Miss the days when you could look like this and still be a musician..Today only pretty young kids are in front of camera...Nice to see some age and character in the songwriter/performers face....Today these guys would be songwriters writing a beautiful song like this for Justin Bieber to sing to swooning, screaming teens...Sad...still great song..great memories..btw..MAJOR props for singing live(apparently)...on a show like Solid Gold...Only seen lyp sync on that show.

[@mikespencer3518]

Had to absolutely buy this on 8 track in 70's

[@user-uk6tc1em8y]

Back in those days, there wasn't this thing called instant gratification when it came to entertainment. We had weekly programs on TV and had to wait to see the next episode or the next show, like Solid Gold. But, oh god, it was worth the wait!

[@jonathanbreland8260]

This band is awesome. The lead vocalist puts it into gear. It definitely brings back old memories for sure!!!

[@irishoconnell6283]

Rite on this tune off the chain

[@drewnogy]

This might be the only time in the history of Solid Gold that a band actually played live. I wonder how Firefall was able to pull that off. I always watched the show during its eight-year run and don't remember anybody playing live, ever.

[@nosajsam]

They actually played to a track that was recorded the day before. My Dad didn't mind performing the song but wasn't going to lip sync to Rick Roberts voice. They went into a sound studio the day before, recorded and submitted it. Then lip sync to that 😊

[@astroman30]

WKRP and Solid Gold were my two favorite shows.

[@Zickcermacity]

Great recording of an actual LIVE performance of this classic! No dubs, lip-syncs, 'auto-tune' or other 21st century gimmickery.

[@chuckkirkpatrick6712]

I feel I owe you and honest explanation, "Zick". This appearance / performance was a total lip-sync and the reason was, Solid Gold had no facilities in their studio that would allow for a live band performance. We were instructed to provide an audio tape to the preproduction department prior to our appearance. The show producers naturally wanted a known 'hit' by the group and "JRILY" was chosen. This presented a huge problem because #1, there was only ONE original member left (Jock, playing the blue guitar), and the new lead singer John Sambataro flatly refused to lip-sync to the original singer Rick Roberts' voice. We tried to get Atlantic Records to send us a mix minus vocal from the original album master tapes, but they refused. Problem #2 was, we had NO recording of the 'new' band playing the song. So, the night before the show, we had to go to a recording studio and cut the whole song from scratch - which we did and we were on the plane later that night to Los Angeles with tape in hand. I think if you compare the original album recording by the original band with ours (done in about 3 hours' time; instruments, vocals, everything), you'll agree that it holds up pretty darn good....

[@chuckkirkpatrick6712]

If you'd like a real treat, look for "Firefall / Nashville Now". THAT was TOTALLY live, on camera. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmeqqmunqbSkaa8

Beautiful memories awesome music love them one of my favorites ❤️

[@JackRowsey]

One of the drummers, Michael Clarke, dated my sister, Barbara. We had him over for dinner in Ft Lauderdale, when I was a kid, maybe 15. So that maybe 1979-80. I remember him just starring at my sister. I think I giggled about it. My sister is 9 years older than me. He took her out to Colorado for a few months. Out of the blue, he showed up at our house around 1982 and proposed to my sister. I’m not sure why she said no. They hadn’t seen each other in about 2 years. It may have been his drinking. I can’t remember. I’ve been a fanatic photographer all my life. Im sure I got a picture of him and my sister. I’ll have to look through the thousands of negatives I have in that period. I’m sorry he passed so early. I’ll have to tell my sister. She doesn’t have a computer and could never figure out the Internet. She’s 64 now. I’m sure she’ll be sad.

[@vincewarren1271]

That's really neat to hear. Wonder what she thinks of him after all of these years.

[@rhondaweldonwells3798]

Yes he was drinking heavily all his life, so sad that he left us so soon.

[@paultreadaway102]

Firefall classy Song up there with the others indeed blend of ballads with Rock they do vibes space age 70s had and head into the 80s words to describe list is endless.We grow old with this it suxs tho getting old omg scary yikes gosh who would have thought in its 40s and 50s

Patty Chambers Sorry Patty ! I think the recorded version is far superior to this by a long-shot! The singer sounds somewhat "bland" and doesn't carry any feeling to the song!

[@1789publius]

Respectfully disagree. Rick Roberts' voice was what made Firefall great. This is a cheap substitute and big disappointment.

[@chuckkirkpatrick6712]

Thank you, Patty. This was actually a re-record because Solid Gold would not allow us to perform live on air.
