Johnny Rivers - Mountain Of Love

[@PhyllisFicarrotta-yg1om]

Why isn’t this wonderfully talented man in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame??? What an injustice! There would have been no Whisk ago go in the 60’s without this man!! People start a petition!! Now!! Thanks Johnny for all the joy you brought us!! Love you!

[@jamietaylor1402]

I so respect this song I don’t know what it is was just a kid hearing this song it’s just special hearing as adult 😎❤️

[@peterlois1086]

@@jamietaylor1402 thats exactly how i feel about it, sometime when I was young I remember hearing this song either on the radio or my dad played it and 40 years later im still listening to it

[@lucianrobusto2237]

I haven't listened to this in a while. It's pretty darned great. Johnny Rivers deserves to be better remembered.

[@johnray5568]

I've only just rediscovered Johnny Rivers since my childhood. He's a legend.

[@ludvetman3928]

[@walterfisher5749]

An iconic voice from a time where music mattered. And the harmonica ain't bad neither.

[@richardschaefer4807]

Great unique voice...Still truckin' on that Mountain of Love!

[@stephanielaurenbounds4958]

I ALWAYS imagine myself being in Mississippi and Louisiana in 1964 when I hear this song. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@shirleydunbar1020]

Amazing, wonderful, this man is awesome love Johnny Rivers

[@loist7561]

Thanks for this high spirited, heavy-hearted love song. I've always liked it and sing it at every jam and camp fire get together. Johnny has a clear voice and jubilant sound. This rendition will last as the very best, and you have to dig the harmonica!

[@angelaallen340]

Love harmonica

[@alanwilson3821]

Charlie's version or Jonny's? I have no idea, five cans thru a six pack of Gennesy! What say ya'll?

[@willkittwk]

You hit the word to describe his style.. Jubilant.

[@57highland]

@@alanwilson3821 Genesee is the beer you're talking about. Are you from Western NY State?

[@57highland]

How many people coveted it. I thought there were only two, Johnny's and the original but Harold Dorman.

[@kennethmacdonald8561]

So good. Musician, composer, and great singger. Should be recognized more than he is.

[@ThePeterd156]

Johnny's version of this song is the best for sure. Also, great job with the audio on this, it sounds fantastic! Thanks for putting this up, I love this song. (original - Harold Dorman)

[@franciscoalvarezalvarez6205]

JOHNNY ROCK IN ROLL RIVER.

[@rjmcallister1888]

1964: Harold Dorman, Johnny Rivers and Charley Pride have all had big hits with this one. They're all good.

[@FlipFlopandFly]

What a great artist !

[@broadcasttttable]

Opening bass riff kills.

[@toolakea]

Have always liked this song. My favorite J.Rivers song is Poor Side of Town, but I enjoy all his songs. Love listening to him play the guitar too. Born in 1955; heard songs on the radio as a child and young teen and so on.

[@joefrisbey5252]

Poor Side of Town is one of my favorite songs too

[@doyalthomas3667]

I hear you sister borned in 55 also used to go to a place as a little kid when we cut enough grass or hauled hay in the summer or picked a little cotton in the fall called the economy ice cream parlor and ate chili dogs and put our change in a juke box a dime a song or 3 for a quarter for johnny rivers, roy Orbison and I can remember the artist right off hand but he sung juke box on a sawdust floor! DAMN I MISS THOSE GOOD OLD DAYS 👍

[@billgonzales2339]

back ground vocals are superb

[@dennicegalea1571]

great song and singer i have been playing this all my life 2020

[@biancacontti4467]

Standing on a mountain looking down on a city The way I feel is a doggone pity Teardrops fallin' down a mountainside Many times I've been here, many times I've cried We used to be so happy when we were in love High on a mountain of love Night after night I'm a-standing here alone Weepin' my heart out till cold gray dawn Prayin' that you're lonely and you come here too Hoping just by chance that I'll get a glimpse of you Tryin' hard to find you, somewhere up above High on a mountain of love A mountain of love, a mountain of love, you should be ashamed We used to be a mountain of love But you just changed your name Way down below there's a half a million people Somewhere there's a church with a big tall steeple Inside a church there's an altar filled with flowers Wedding bells are ringin' and they shoulda been ours That's why I'm so lonely, my dreams gone above High on a mountain of love A mountain of love, a mountain of love, you should be ashamed now Used to be a mountain of love But you just changed your name Way down below there's a half a million people Somewhere there's a church with a big tall steeple Inside a church there's an altar filled with flowers Wedding bells are ringin' that shoulda been ours That's why I'm so lonely, dream gone above High on a mountain of love High on a mountain of love High on a mountain of love High on a mountain of love High on a mountain of love

[@felipesants8936]

beautiful song

[@patrickbranin7065]

Johnny Rivers: one foot in the 50's, two feet in the sixties; so ahead of his time, I doubt if he even knew it...

[@jamietaylor6007]

Im glad my parents listened to good oldies I remember ;listening to as kid as adult I RESPECT hearing oldies I'm 46

[@michaelglickman1300]

For those wondering, the other musicians are bassist Joe Osborn and drummer Mickey Jones.

[@sirdavidofthelake]

Great to hear this again!

[@dntlss]

I work with this young kid and all he listens to is rap/hip hop,we go to lunch sometimes in his car and he knows i really dont care for it so he plays it just enough were its audible and i appreciate that, when someone rides with me unless its a good buddy i dont blare my music either but i cant help when we are on the road all i can think is "my boy you have no idea what your missing out on" when you have classics like this along with another 3 million killer songs why in the world would you listen to that vile filth. One of these days when i die I'm gonna be stuck in a room somewhere with little Wayne, i just know it.

[@karlfisher1864]

R&R Hall of Fame doesn't care about talent. If you are in any way implicated in counter culture activity, especially antiwar sentiment from the '60s, they will fight you. They are very corporate. Violence (even against women), anger and alcohol are OK with them, but one joint of marijuana and they will never forget (unless you are the Beatles, Stones). K

I came to the conclusion a long time ago that the Rn'R Hall of Fame means absolutely nothing. not to me and I bet a lot of artist see it that way too. The Hall of Fame is a tourist attraction in Cleveland ,Oh. Fin.

[@OlymPigs2010]

...I Agree...Fuck the "Lame Ass" Rock & Roll Hall of Fame !

[@lockedin60]

Playing little political games. I think the more legitimate hall of fame is the Musician's Hall of Fame.

[@sandsoftime1954]

@@lockedin60 I agree James, In my mind I see six or twelve people sitting around a big conference table, maybe once a month doing what ever it is they do without regard of what is right or just for the music fans ,the artists or the industry as a whole. It is all personal opinion with just a little bit of bias thrown in for good measure. And they get paid for that ! Sorry about the rant.

[@lockedin60]

​@@sandsoftime1954 No need to be sorry when you are typing the truth. The measure of an artist worth are the audiences who still show up at the artist shows. And maybe buy their albums even now whatever form that takes. I remember the generational gap when I used to listen to the Beatles. My parents didn't understand or care to listen. I am now my parents because a lot of today's music does nothing for me.
