Kentucky Headhunters - Spirit in the Sky

Rockin' Country Tour 1992

[@JasonCleghorn1975]

I think his voice is very underrated. He had(s) a very good rock and roll voice. Held up very well live.

[@MeganGoble98]

These guys rock!!!! I'm 12 and this was 1 of mine and nana's favorite songs! I played it at her funeral! 1/1/57~8/31/10

[@taboomarypaul]

[@waynegrant8982]

great band , saw them live in Vancouver BC Canada...please keep playing.. i am 54 so i love this music

[@sgtdarkness1]

Anthem for Vietnam veterans. When my brother passed in 2008 he had requested this song at his funeral also. Just saw the Headhunters today and the drummer did a 15 minute solo. These guys have been at it for 35 years and still going strong.

[@RYRocker]

Played this song last evening and channeled my inner Fred Young! Always a fun song to rock!

[@summons1000]

Told my boys this will be played and cranked to 11 on the dial at my funeral. Love it

[@RockinGuy1994]

He's playing that guitar and he is in his own little world!

[@randallandbeverly]

Love this version!! awesome!

[@MeganGoble98]

Yeah, she was too young. I was a Nana's girl and it hit me pretty hard but I'm thankful that I had the time with her that I did. Thank you. (:

[@PeterRosenqvist]

WOW , this version ROCKS, BIG TIME !!

[@hlfyoung79]

funeral music for my late ex step (LMBO) father-in-law. We miss you, Mike!

[@IndianaSurfGuitar]

My first time catching this cover of "Spirit In The Sky," and I just love it when a band not only OWNS the cover they're doing, but do it justice at the same time!

[@crusher9485]

I saw these guys at the Horseshoe River Bend Festival in Cliffton, TN back in Sep, 2010. And yes, they rocked the entire mainstreet!!!

[@MrLabruce1]

This is my favorite cover of this song

[@stiffleralec]

my brother passed away to this song it was playing when he got into his accident oh how i miss him so much!!!!

[@ilililhy1]

[@rayborngail5]

[@gilbertbarnes5667]

Toronto here When I get up at an open jam and I do Dumas Walker they all Love it Love your southern rock

[@KRISJINGLE4]

she was too young...... God Bless you and your family, and her memories you can cherish.

[@NHMntnHIGH]

@MeganGoble98 one of my favorites at about the same age...excellent tune

[@ilililhy1]

My friend and my Mother both had cancer,my mother was healed by the Stripes of Jesus.My friend called me and said he was dying,I said, I will come and pray for you and we did,he tells me months later,I am Healed by the Blood of Jesus.Just believe,take your healing by FAITH. The Devil hates for you to know the TRUTH.

[@bass1bone]

Thanks for posting, man. This was one of my favorites when I was a kid.

[@musicmandon1]

I went to see this concert in Hartford, CT, in September 1992--the Headhunters and Billy Ray Cyrus. What a wild night. Part of the barrier broke between Cyrus and his fans, and it was all his security could do to keep him from being mobbed.

[@arthurwashburn7624]

excellent version

[@rlove329]

I watched them in Daytona at the Broken Spoke Saloon bike week and they rocked the house

[@vickiemorgan2545]

Love them headhunters

[@GrantGomezRevival]

Rock and Roll Heaven.

[@ufofan1980]

Happy birthday Eric Danielson of Dawson Creek, British Columbia. Rock n roll till the end. RIP June 3rd 1952 - July 2nd 2010 ( motorcycle crash ) He died doing what he loved. As weird as it sounds, he would have refused to die any other way then on his Harley with his snakeskins on cruising the empty, traffic free roads to the Yukon.

[@lovinlemon]

my dad played a show wit them a few days ago!!!!!!!

[@DeepGreenForest]

I like these guys. For some reason I'm getting a strong Spinal Tap vibe.

[@captainfroghammer]

Saw these guys at Cheyenne Frontier days, probably right around 92', this stage setup and the guys look exactly like I remember it. These guys are cool. I usually hate country music. lol

[@gypsyseagod]

even better now. it funny how greg has those amps pointed away from the crowd- YES it's that loud.. i love my Marshalls too.

[@MEDINAHSHRINER]

If you ever partied you ain't partied until you partied in Kentucky! Wild! Try the Little Sturgis run! In Sturgis Kentucky.... Wild!

[@derdagian1]

Any suggestions? I can't quit replaying this and it might be that drummer's beat. I really need to quit coming back to this and playing it over and over. I have to stop this!

[@MeganGoble98]

Haha, yeah! (:

[@kimcampbell8750]

what happened to these guys. I've lost track. noticed other tunes with different singer. not cool.

[@richardburchett]

Look for newest album Dixie Lullabies on itunes. It's a great album. One of the Phelps brothers is back in the band and singing with them.

[@2sepgorillas]

Great version. I like rock! I love to rock n'roll! The band just needs a 'steelier' edge. Get the chubby boy on rythmn guitar to lose the specs (and some weight) and I reckon this could go even better....

[@1deanstill]

what happened to this band ?

[@doobeedoo58]

they're no Norman Greenbaum

[@SPOOKSTR]

When i die...it'll be Highway to HELL all the way.
