Ides of March - Official Concert Video of "Vehicle"

[@jamescarter4175]

These guys still sound as great as they did in 1970!

[@Sam-qm1io]

I'm 63...and I get winded just bending over to tie my shoes. I'm guessing Jim Peterik is not a smoker.

[@charlescontreras4135]

Being that I'm from Chicago, I can tell you that The Ides of March are the pride of Berwyn IL!

[@Sam-qm1io]

The pride of Berwyn was the car-kabob...now it's Jim Peterik.

[@charlescontreras4135]

@Sam-qm1io I remember that car-kabob! I was so pissed when they took it away. But you're right, they'll always have Jim.

[@randallamirante3112]

I am from Chicago as well and lived in Berwyn for 14 years....Ides of March and Chicago had great horn sections

[@Sam-qm1io]

@@charlescontreras4135 That thing was so cheezy it was cool. I recall it found its way into a movie...I think Wayne's World? The owner of the plaza fancied himself an artist, and in addition to a dozen (or whatever) smaller interactive pieces in the mall, there was a yellow Vega exploded and affixed to a wall near Walgreen's, meant to resemble a squished bug.

[@blueridger28]

I'm hearing them loud and clear from Grassy Creek NC! Brilliant!

[@zavman109]

Awesome all around, but the brass is what makes it, oh yeah!!

[@lindabergman3127]

Leonid and friends tribute band covers this song n it’s fabulous and beautiful music and ides of March compliment them in penned comments 😂

[@charlesdobbs4570]

Classic. This song will Never get old.

[@LesterMoore]

Great music is never out of vogue and style. Just timeless.

[@lindabergman3127]

Agreed100

[@Sam-qm1io]

The song? Jim Peterik is what never seems to get old. He's much older than I am...and I get winded tying my shoes!

[@Neilfrozn]

This is one of the BEST rock songs EVER written! I'll never get tired of hearing it!

[@neilouellette3004]

Jim Peterik. One of the best songwriters ever. Hands down.

[@pjwillsr]

You can run into him in, perhaps dining in his home in Burr Ridge, IL...so approachable and still has all the style.

[@mgcmail2002]

I've been listening to this song since 1970 when I was 11 years old, and to this day it still sends shivers down my spine every time I hear it! Great God in heaven you know I LOVE this song!!!

[@johnnelson5083]

I saw them in concert last year (I think) in Glenview along with the Buckinghams and a number of other older bands and they were great. Jim Pederik is a great guy as well as we met him once at a bank (gorgeous early model red corvettte) and got a photo of him with my mom and she invited him to come to the Windy City Harmonica Club practice that week so he could add harmonica to his act.

[@vivatones66]

As a drummer it was always so empowering to play this as a cover song in 1971 in the most popular club in Chattanooga.

[@catsteele]

Great God in heaven ... fantastic line!

[@rigelmoon9030]

Jim Peterik is an American icon. My generation latched onto this tune and never let it go. It was a 'get your ass off that bleacher and dance' head banger.

[@maryroberts9233]

Phenomenal. Still the same great sounds from the seventies.

[@jondvorak659]

One of my all time favorites!!!

[@JuanGomez-mj6uq]

Para mi pasaron 51 años y no puedo olvidar esta canción. Sencillamente, “sensacional “, y ya no puedo escribir nada más, las lágrimas no me dejan. Gracias por compartir.

[@bobcaldwellrocks]

This song is the embodiment of the male psyche at its euphoric best

[@nigelwright850]

God, that's a great comment. Spot on.

[@BradleyBurks-f6r]

I was only 9 when it was released, but I still can't help but dancing when I hear it. Especially in my Camaro.

[@chejlr]

Just awesome, i was 13 when this came out. It was huge.

[@Miki981]

Incredibly enough, they sound better live than on studio recording, and some of the guys are in their 70s! Amazing!

[@johnsocha3748]

Great band!

[@ronnieparkerscott6223]

Great god in heaven you know I love this vehicle!

[@Super10071957]

The best ever. They sure haven't lost it!

[@cherriphelps0108]

God, I love this! 💘

[@NoneOfYourBeezWax13]

Me too!!!!

[@deltonkillen8024]

Oldest son was 3rd trombone in 1991 edition of the Maroon Typhoon Marching Band at Jones County Comm. College. Their field show that year closed with "Vehicle" and "I Can See For Miles". Quite exciting with these two high power numbers.

[@mauriciosandoval40]

Oh boy..... how I Love this one, heard it for the first time in 1971...was 15 at that time and still love it at my 66 years old. Never makes me grow older....

[@palcanon6888]

Sweeeeeeeeet!!!!! They kept it very close to the original!!!

[@jamesbond9291]

This is talent kiddies Live. No auto tune.

[@kcdawg2060]

I was just 7yrs old when this incredible song appeared like magic ✨ in our house 🏠...🤘🎸✌️😎🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲✨✨✨

[@markjyoung6683]

My Favorite song !! hop right in the Vehicle and lets go........

[@HistoricalOlive]

Gonna be playing this in Jazz band next year :D (we play this song every year but next year will be my first year in jazz band. I play trombone.

[@Sam-qm1io]

Cool. Good for you...more horn players are needed.

[@JerryLeeHowell2]

Oh mannn is this good! Still going soooo strong!

[@marystaab9962]

This song had a great soundtrack back then and sounds even better now!

[@jim-xj4ub]

Well after all these years I still only drive BLACK cars because of this song !!!! I am 67 now lets keep it rockin!!!!

[@ilovemusic4871]

Wow! Sounds just as good today.

[@kitsmith806]

I was in highschool when this came out, it's one of my favorites and hearing it again is such a treat❤️👍🏽

[@stopmakingsense1543]

This song popped into my head. Had to take care of the ear worm. Glad I did. Better than I remember.

[@bobbydavis888]

Loved this Song, Congrats on The Illinois Rock Hall, 2021!!! Still sounding Fabulous!!!

[@youdonaldwayne]

Great song! Saw them at Western KY Univ in 1971 - great concert. They still sound great!

Tenía yo diez años y ya me latían estás rolas. Las tocaban algunos machines del barrio en cassettes de 8 Tracs 50 años pasaron y aún las recuerdo.

[@vernahemmingson6001]

Love this song

[@maryann_bekind]

Love this song!. Love the Idea of March and grew up not far from Berwyn, my cousin's lived there and I had many friends that lived in Berwyn. One of my friends lived in Countryside and one of the members of Survivor lived in his condo building. Jim Peterik performed at an ALS Fundraiser that I participated in with one of my oldest and closest friends, she had been diagnosed with ALS just before her 50th birthday. It was a Rock-a-thon fundraiser for Les Turner ALS foundation. We had a great time. Unfortunately that was the last time I was able to see my friend. She passed away the following year.

@@Sam-qm1io Oh, I'm so sorry 😞 Yes, once and a while I have typos. I will admit I'm not a very good typist. I love this band and thought I'd leave a message about how great they sound and how their songs motivate me, make me happy. I was in a bad accident and am getting through a lot of skin graph surgeries. It's been a very painful two months in the hospital so far and I've been watching videos, movies and music videos to keep my mind off of the situation I'm going through. Sometimes I don't check my typing before I post. I'll do that from now on. Sorry I upset you. Thanks for letting me know ☺️

Bandas mundialmente famosas como Chicago, Earth Wind and Fire, Tower of Power son consideradas las mas importantes del genero funk y sus grandes temas musicales memorables sin duda por algo son respetadas a nivel mundial. Y lo seguiran siendo. Pero este tema en particular de Ides of the Marchs llamada "Vehicle" es sin duda el himno nacional de funk estadounidense. Dicho por un Méxicano sin temor a equivocarme o hacer de lado todos los temas músicales simbolicos del género Funk.🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
