[@kimcutts6153]

Gerry Rafferty's "Baker Street" is a must listen to (if you haven't already) its pure gold. ❤🎷 RIP Gezza 🩵

Do you really want to see SalvoG melt in his chair? 😂

[@dizastro5437]

I would like that. Is that wrong?

[@wgandy9541]

Gerry had many great hits. His voice was like velvet. Since you liked this one you've got to listen to his song Baker Street. The sax solo is epic.

[@markcollins730]

Baker Street still stands tall as a poignant meditation on despondency and inertia, striking a chord with listeners who embraced it as an emotionally-charged classic-rock staple

[@jamesdignanmusic2765]

Great description!

[@rk41gator]

SalvoG will LOVE Baker Street. (as do I)

[@richardmccarley281]

Gerry's Baker Street is one of my top five favorite songs.

[@johntreboryen1149]

Welcome to the absolute joy that is Gerry Rafferty. Baker Street is an absolute masterpiece, I highly recommend the album version for the extended outro, you will not be disappointed

[@impudentdomain]

Probably the most beautiful heart felt lyrics ever. What a great love song.

[@FireMunki63]

Gerry is pure Gold. What a voice, what a song writer.

[@FloridaHiker619]

"Stuck In The Middle With You" is a must listen. Its upbeat and more of a rock song.

[@patrickdoake6022]

Pop song was chart hit (singles, 45rpm)in uk

[@DavidShealy-bj7jg]

A-Plus with this song, A masterful balance of guitars, bass line, light snare, synthesizer,velvet lyrics, vocal harmony blends this smooth soft rock composition as a Top 5 on any published list.

[@tinapatterson5022]

I Remember 35 Years ago My Husband Played this song and After it was over, He asked me to marry Him. We plays it every year on our Anniversary💍

[@km4844]

That’s so sweet! A great song to slow dance to, too!

[@sassymess7111]

OMG, that's so beautiful ❤️

[@jessicaleblanc-nh1yl]

One of the best love songs ever written. He was a true gift & this piece shows that.

[@imRehnzy]

This whole album is one of the best albums made. unarguably.

[@DeniseDavila-yq8qu]

Love this song!! I hope you do Baker Street soon!! ❤

[@rogers.5153]

ABBA, Olivia Newton-John, The Carpenters and now Gerry Rafferty. You have managed to hit the quadfecta on my top favorite artists of the 70s. This is aging myself, but I still have my original vinyl for these artists and they still sound great! There are so many songs by each of these artists that you still need to experience. I am looking forward to experiencing them with you. Thank you!

[@alvarocoutinho9143]

Beautiful song. I hope you do Baker Street too. It has one of the iconic guitar solos. I always enjoy hearing the sax and lead guitar play off each other.

[@dagmar.6954]

Love this song. In 1972 Gerry Rafferty was in the Scottish folk rock band Stealers Wheel & had a big hit with "Stuck In The Middle With You". Later on, he went out on his own & then had the big hits "Baker's Street", "Right Down The Line" & "Night Owl".

[@joymoore1904]

RIP Gerry. Gone way too soon. Always been at the top of my list of fave artists. ❤

[@TheTraktergirl]

Gerry Rafferty's songs get to me just like Alan Parsons project does❤

[@beeseewill2407]

Right Down the Line is a beautiful,happy song. The music is addictive,it just lays on my brain.

[@ericmorgan204]

Every channel has featured his hit “Baker Street” and for good reason, but for some reason, no one has done his studio version of “Get it right next time”, Please be the first SalvoG.

[@cindiherriott3259]

It’s just such a fun song. We’ve been singing these songs for years and years. They never grow old or tiresome. Baker Street is just another fav of mine. A must listen to.

[@LoneRanger100]

Whatever’s written in your heart from City to City - just beautiful

[@rodolfomahtiss4970]

Gerry rafferty was a highly talented perfectionist his unique voice reminds me of those crazy seventies his magic album city to city is epic l love his music his voice and I always will, RIP gerry

[@mocknburd23]

Baker Street is his biggest hit, and definitely a must-listen!! I also really love Home and Dry, just some incredible sounds and incredible music!

[@greeleyman]

This was high school music for me; his hit Baker Street is still a favorite. You are reviewing SO MANY of my old faves (including ELO)- a lot of nostalgia!

[@glennmallery]

Such a perfect song. What a groove..doesn't get any better than that.

[@carolcoker9862]

This is one of my all time favorite songs Im 65 and I still love it, such a great love song!

[@mitchridder4071]

You'll love Gerry's "Get it Right Next Time," great beat!

[@rafehr1378]

He's special to me for a long time.

[@lawrenceb5236]

One of my favorite songs of the 70s. Thanks for sharing it.

[@jonicantrell7849]

Love that slight Caribbean vibe to it. Wonderful thank you to his wife for trying to help him off the bottle

[@HollisDuty60]

Gerry Rafferty has such a unique voice. This song plus Baker’s Street are two of my favorite songs. It takes me back to a specific time in my younger years. Great memories and feelings. ❤

[@sandrahernandez569]

You Get it!!!! Loved your Reaction!!!!

[@flom7850]

My wedding song from my husband. His music is amazing!!!

[@paulrogers4483]

Glad you got to this one, it's me and my lady's song. Baker Street should be the next Rafferty song to do. Then I would suggest Dr John's Right place, Wrong Time, it'll blow your mind. ✌️Peace✌️

[@monicataylor9977]

Yes to Dr John, I was just thinking that a couple days ago!!

[@paulrogers4483]

@@monicataylor9977 Great tune

[@lufshpq]

I remember when this song was new....God I'm old.

[@ferleiva7080]

Man this is one of my favorite songs of any artist, ever. I've heard it a zillion times and never get tired, in fact I wish that ending was longer. For groovy, you should check out from Gerry "Get it right next time", from his album Night Owl (the one right after this one). Also more classy tracks like "Night owl" itself, "Baker Street", "Waiting for the day", etc.

[@kristenheaslip8668]

Love this song, it is a regular on my weekend playlist!

[@SusanPeterson-l7i]

I love love love this song!! Baker street is another really good song, you must listen to it!❤

[@brentgunderson1349]

"Baker Street", "Home And Dry", "Days Gone Down", "Get It Right Next Time", all Top 40 hits. Had all his singles, including one that peaked in the 50's "Royal Mile (Sweet Darlin')" that's really good too.

[@beckiramsey9561]

Yeah, this is a really great song!!🔥🔥 I love it!❤ Glad you did too! Awesome reaction!!👏👏👏

[@TheMikeman1971]

Love this song And Baker street is a great one he sings too.

[@mayabairey]

Soft. Chill. Needed this today.

[@janeteckhart4886]

I haven't been able to keep up with you for a while. What a great song to come back to! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@EchoesDaBear]

Great reaction Salvo! Indeed, this song is such a groove, that bassline is fire...and the lyrics are beautiful! Gerry Rafferty (RIP) was a real talented chap. I love singing this to my wife - and if the opportunity presents, dancing in the kitchen! The entire City to City album is wonderful. Baker Street and The Ark from the album are also must listens. This made my Friday. Cheers!

[@ptrlxc]

A must listen to after this from Gerry Rafferty is Baker Street.

[@johnnyhancock76]

City to City is one of the best albums ever. It’s one of my desert island albums.

[@TheBurr75]

This is so darn smooth

[@verulamwalla4999]

music and lyrics are amazing !

[@martinmorris5997]

You missed that Gerry joined the Humblebums in 1969, with Billy Connelly (comedian, actor, musician) and Tam Harvey, for Tam to leave shortly afterwards. Billy and Gerry carried on as a duo until 1971 when they went their separate ways. Gerry became huge as a musician, and Billy became huge as a comedian and later an actor. Next track to listen to is his classic song “Bakers Street” as you won’t get better. After that maybe Steelers Wheel “Stuck in the Middle with You”

[@ChrisSmith-xh9wb]

I saw Gerry and Billy perform as a duo before either of them were famous. I could not predict at that time how far they would go. It is tragic that, despite asserting a wish to "give up the booze" in the lyrics of Baker Street alcoholism got the better of him and took him from us far too early.

[@SWLinPHX]

I love this song and perform it often too, but you MUST check out his huge classic hit "Baker Street" (heavenly saxophone) and his first hit with Stealer's Wheel "Stuck In The Middle".

[@laneykehel5057]

I love it that you do the research first. I haven't seen any of your reaction videos that I didn't enjoy. Thank you!

[@marcelotto6825]

This song is one of my most loved songs of all time of any genre. Thank you for the reaction.

[@user-jn6bi7mn4m]

Baker Street and Get It Right Next Time, two of my favorite Gerry Rafferty tunes!!

[@fhdz505]

I was 8 yrs old when this song was released. I recall 'cruising' with teen brother to this song. Even at that age, that song gave me what I can only explain now as calm/euphoric/unexplainable feeling. 🧘‍♀️

[@karenmikalofsky5287]

Stealers Wheel, Stuck in the Middle with You is a vibe. It’s been in soooooo many movies. 🔥

[@penelopehornswaggle102]

Gerry is so great I forgot about these songs.❤Another great reaction ❤

[@Spiderific]

Love this song. You gotta do "Baker Street"!!

[@stevesnow315]

I'd heard "Baker Street" over and over. Great song. But it took this song to make me desperately want the album. BTW, the title cut is awesome.

[@yvonnephillips3888]

Isn't this one of the most relaxing and uplifting songs. I have no musical ability at all but hey, someone needs to be listening.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

I bet you'd absolutely love his massive hit Baker Street.

[@mikeb36240]

Daughtry - "It's Not Over"🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@timetravellingone]

He has a fairly unknown album "On a wing and a prayer" 1992 with some great songs "Time's caught up on you" "It's easy to talk" "Don't give up on me" "I see red"

[@toniboydston2744]

Salvo. Thank you. So happy you appreciate these great classics. I think you are a bit of a romantic too. 😊❤

[@GR65330]

One of my favorite songs from back in the day. That and Rafferty's 'Baker Street'. RIP.

[@Jahbs]

Good friend of Billy Connely☮️ ❤️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@orphu88]

"Baker Street" is one of my favorite songs ever; I hope you listen to it soon.

[@jollyrodgers7272]

BAKER STREET was his most famous song, but do not forget GET IT RIGHT NEXT TIME - it's a another gem with Raphael Ravenscroft on Sax, again (his name was as cool as his play).

[@amyjones9144]

I love this song

[@VicEclectica]

Gotta do Baker Street. Can't even think about Gerry Rafferty without hearing Baker Street. Iconic.

[@1aigrobe]

Next one from him should be Baker Street: His best song

[@tlucas9798]

The piano is subtle and beautifu.

[@dizastro5437]

Smoothed out. Nice discovery. Keep turning over suggestions.

[@rescuelover7891]

I've always thought Gerry was never given the recognition he deserved. Of course Baker Street is just gold.❤

[@rogerbear60]

I always liked Get it Right Next Time, and the "in-studio" video is fun to watch.

[@glenndespres5317]

Salvo G. You are my last hope of getting someone to react to this man’s song The Ark. Yes, Baker Street is great and was rightly a huge hit. Please do The Ark. Thank you!

[@DebraPrezioso]

Love this great song along with your genuine reaction!!😊😊

[@johnfarkas3429]

Simply a pleasure to listen to this song every time! One of my favorites by Gerry that gets overlooked is his 1979 Top 20 hit "Days Gone Down (Still Got the Light in Your Eyes)"

[@kevindavis7620]

This song was very popular in my high school years. I graduated in 1981 and City to City is an amazing album.

[@Marcus-Oh-really-yes]

Definitely check out "Baker Street" by Gerry Rafferty!!! Earlier in his career, Gerry sang lead for the band Steelers Wheel on their Top 10 hit song "Stuck in the Middle With You."

[@chrisphillips6249]

One of my favorite albums ever!

[@michellnav]

Bringing me back to my 20's!

[@stuartauld2149]

One half of The Humblebums, the other half being Billy Connolly

[@sassymess7111]

This, BAKER STREET (my absolute favorite). and Steelers wheel STUCK IN THE MIDDLE WITH YOU.

[@alanwood14]

I do love this song but my fave Rafferty song is Get It Right Next Time.

[@adammclennan2627]

Love the track and the dude is intriguing to me. I love his music/ look/vibe.

[@jamesdignanmusic2765]

A gorgeous love song, a beautiful voice, and great production, too. "Baker Street" is a must-hear hit, but I'd also recommend "Get it Right Next Time", with its propulsive bass, "Night Owl", and a deeper cut - "Sleepwalking". Fun fact - a lot of Gerry's lyrics nod back to earlier songs of his - in this song there's the line "You put something better inside of me" which is the title of a song he did with Stealers Wheel. The line "constant as the northern star" is a Shakespeare quotation, BTW :) RIP Gerry - gone too soon.

[@davechaney1452]

Absolutely MUST check out Baker Street

[@gpal86]

His song Baker Street is pure ear candy. You’ll be glad you listened to it.

[@tulyar57]

I remember Tim Robbins telling James Lipton (in Inside the Actors Studio) that his favourite word was 'mellifluous'. Well he could have been describing Gerry Rafferty.

[@douglasg.9271]

Baker street is a must hear song. I’m kinda shocked you haven’t heard it yet.

[@user-Spicoli]

Baker Street is a must!!! Facts!!

[@mischiefmanaged444]

BAKER STREET next! Easily one of the most recognizable sax moments of the 70's. The other being TURN THE PAGE by Bob Segar. Both Legendary!

[@lynnieiapichino1121]

☮️💙💙💙🔥🔥😎thank you for great evening!

[@jackgilchrist]

Most people start with Baker's Street, and while I do dig that song a lot, I'm loving this song so much more. My favorite song off that album. My dad bought the album back shortly after it came out, when I was around 12, because we were hearing Baker's Street on the radio all the time. Me, my Dad and my now 80-year-old Mom all loved it. My Mom especially loves Baker's Street. Right Down the Line is one of the greatest love songs ever, imo. Not sappy, but deep and heartfelt, expressing a real, meaningful love.

[@westridgerunner]

A well played smooth guitar always stops me in my tracks too 🤠

[@dennisflury6942]

Good pick! Baker street (lots of sax) next please!

[@deniscurran]

If you like this one Salvog, Baker Street is going to blow you away!

Gerry Rafferty - anything. Pick any album and do one of your Patreon album reactions and you won't regret it.
