Ventura Highway - America Cover by F&F

[@randylacroix5450]

Just hearing the intro takes me back

[@stanguitar3044]

Great cover. I love the lead singers vocal tone and the blending of the guitars. Now a big F & F fan 👍

[@lynwessel2471]

Band leader Tim Purcell lead singer. Maggie (Adams) Preston, Darwin Conort, Sammie Purcell, Chase Truran vocals. Toby Ruckert, Darwin , Tim guitar, Johnny Pike drums, Rick Meeder bass.

[@mdogg1604]

F and F gives me hope for the historical preservation of the best music era ever, IMHO....

[@jimpowers9553]

I need to be honest here. I don’t think you know how very good you ALL are. I’ve been a musician 60 years, and I know super talent when I see it believe me.

[@DaveShmoe]

50 years for me. Completely agree.

[@WolfQuantum]

Once of my all-time favorite songs. Thanks for doing it justice with your own spin.

[@Jake1968bc]

I love to see the young kids singing the old songs!!!! The best music was the 60s 70s and early 80s 👍

[@eaubin9065]

Certified ear candy right there!! Thanks for the great music!

[@mackpainter7445]

You're bringing tears to my eyes... It's just that beautiful

[@1954crc]

Another great job by you guys! Thanks for sharing!

[@jeffbesing9884]

I work 12 hour shifts so my most favorite time to pass is watching the video’s from Foxes & Fossils. They all are so talented, pure musical talent both in instrumental and vocals. The harmonies are out of this world. This is exactly what this world needs.

[@barbaramoore5070]

Can’t get enough of this…

[@leeanneburroughs-ky5qs]

My husband happened upon this great cover of a great original by America. He said it took him back to his 20s when it first came out. He was overjoyed to hear it.

[@williampocobello5905]

Definitely the best cover band on KZbin.

[@bobgregoryvb]

Kudos to them, but you need to search for Lexington Lab Band.... Much larger group, but equally as good as F and F.

[@stevecrane4856]

Excellent absolutely, but check out Lexington Lab Band and Leonid & Friends, too.

[@marc7491]

The Fendertones (Beachboys cover) and the Lexington Lab are also excellent!

[@megattara]

@@stevecrane4856 Both bands are EXCELLENT but what sets Foxes and Fossils apart is their diversity. Their variety of music is outstanding!

[@georgehouse4747]

Wow as Amazing and Talented as they were before only better than ever ✌️

[@knuckles-3386]

One of my all time favorites!

[@markfranke6897]

Just perfect. Seen America many times. You nailed it. thx so much

[@jimbo7081]

Now that sounds tight and it sounds sooo good!!

[@suebraschio6763]

My husband is a excellent drummer of many decades he loved it and said tell the drummer he did an excellent job 👏

[@lynwessel2471]

Mr John Pike on drums.

[@lutemule]

Yep the drummer made it..

[@Vikezupa]

This couldn’t have been done better. Just perfect. Driving with the windows down, the sun shining through the windows and F&F cranked. Took me back to my teens, 40 years ago. Thank you!

[@groth3395]

America never sounded so good. LOVE IT

[@scottbreseke716]

They made America great again. 🙂

[@mattday870]

Nothing is written like this anymore, and very few have the talent to cover songs like these . F&F can ...and beautifully. Thank you.

[@duncanidaho2097]

This is fantastic. Songs I would crank up on my car radio cruisin’ with my gf in the golden age of SoCal. Thank you F & F for bringing joy to an old guy.

[@southvaron757]

I'm an old SoVA boy, who used to hit La Jolla twice each Winter during the '90s, to surf & escape the E.C. weather. I only wish I had discovered SoCal & Baja in the '80s, right after I graduated. But at least I experienced the beauty of that place, before it became the nightmare it has now become.

[@yodservant]

I lived in Del Mar just up the road from La Jolla summer of 1981.... glorious, drove down from Eugene where I was a student at UofO....so glad I lived in California during the 80s and 90s.....

[@FreedomRock44]

Tim I knew you would be the lead..............KILLED IT BROTHER........EVERYONE ELSE........SPOT ON AS WELL!!!!!!!! YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

[@krissmith3498]

You rocked it... Takes me back to my USN time in San Diego & Oxnard-Ventura in Spring '72. When this song came out, I love S Cal ❤ !

[@pabloneubie]

I love your covers! You all do a fantastic job and the end result is always so nice to listen to. Great job F&F.

[@shadmin9941]

Excellent version of this song from Foxes and Fossils. Loved this song when it came out in the mid 70's. Played this in our NZ High School band then later in the Pubs and parties of the late 70's early 80's. Thanks F&F A pleasure to listen to you Always

[@pgrwrx]

Nailed it again F&F's. Ahh the good old days of America, Chicago, ELO, Bread. Great bands all of them.

[@williammassey911]

OUTSTANDING!!!!! Thank You...Driving around listening to some GREAT music. 8 tack tapes...GOOD TIMES. SUPERB COVER...Horse with no name??? BREAD?????

[@combatmedic1980]

AS ALWAYS , NAILED it, goosebumps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@scothohl4586]

Someone on Leonid And Friends suggested you guys as well, and I am glad I found ya! GREAT MUSIC! Amazing covers!

[@dalesearcy5734]

Just as expected. AWESOME!

[@edsteadham4085]

I'm running out of ways of saying how wonderful this group is.

[@MissJensk1]

That's exactly what I was thinking!

[@paulrosebush9137]

I keep looking for the 'thumbs up' like I haven't already up voted everything they have.

[@pattiswolf8218]

Amen ! ❤❤❤

[@petrus666love]

Fox’s and fossils bring a ray of sunshine too the Depths of Winter 🥶 Nice 😊

[@frenchbrit5098]

This is really tight. great job.

[@tonymurray814]

Ah America, best band ever. Brilliant job on the song. Bravo!!👍.

[@artsilaakso7773]

Beautiful harmonies.

[@4catsnow]

Sold some serious audio with America way back in the day...Thanks for the blast from the past..

[@jennifersmall4027]

Takes me right back to the day....Happiness!

[@kramusic]

I bet that, Dewey Bunnell & Gerry Beckley are extremely proud of your cover version of their great hit song.

[@74bshs]

And Dan Peek as well, RIP. He was still in the group then, the three of them

[@kramusic]

R. I. P. Dan Peek🙏

[@lumbanator]

Still loving this version. Blessings to you all

[@jim6070]

You brought a tear to this fossil’s eye. Thank you all!

[@AlleyKatt]

Foxes & Fossil's emotional harmonising and instrumental magic has a way of playing my heartstrings to make my eyes leak. And it's all of them.

[@jerrymaxwell3978]

Yup, every song is perfect

[@TheCybertiger9]

and I thought I was the only one that felt that way. Sometimes the little things or seemingly insignificant things in life mean a lot to us

[@wolfgangjungheim7502]

Was soll ich dazu schreiben? ... Immer wieder gut, zeitlos gut. Sehr gut dargestellt ...

[@ironjaw6752]

Ah yes, an outstanding cover of this song. I was born, raised and still live in beautiful Ventura,CA. Thank you all for sharing your awesome talent.

[@cletusmorraies9370]

You guys are something special. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@JamesMKo]

Bravo! Awesome rendition! Shouts out to the performers and production team, excellent performance as well as audio, video, mixing etc. all A+ in my book!

[@suzanne2931]

As a child of the 70's I distinctly remember adoring this one; it remains one of my all-time favorites! Thank you for covering this so expertly.

[@janefriel6895]

Same here.In Ireland we didn't have alot of access to music from USA.In the 70s we craved for more and more. The hunger still lingers all these lifetimes later. Now its 24/7 is every room.

[@onelowflyer]

I missed going down that highway in the 70"s. Hope I haven't waited too long. Great song cover .

[@thomasfisher5742]

These musicians cover songs so well......the same room but with a fresh coat of paint lol

[@markedly1013]

You look like a child of the 90's. Are you pulling our legs?

[@74bshs]

No LOL, that was very well stated! :) @@thomasfisher5742

[@daleadkins2736]

Best cover I've ever heard on this iconic America hit.

[@JamesNewsomeCaiLeighAnna]

Another great cover of a great song.

[@RoyMiller-d8y]

Great. I always liked this song from a young age.

[@TheDylan6908]

As usual you took a great song and NAILED it

[@MrBuck6566]

Can’t stop listening to this…I agree this is your best song yet

[@davenc8527]

Another amazing song from this amazing bad.

[@1guarino]

a real gem. thx!

[@donaldparks6087]

You guys nailed it! I'm old enough to have heard this song maybe 500 times on the radio back in the day. Loved it then and you can look the original band right in the eye with how you do this one. I love both versions. Thanks for all you do, F and F.

[@texasrickg]

Well, well done... closed my eyes, and went off with the alligator lizards... wow.. thanks!!

[@shop970]

Did the Band call you up after this one? even America would enjoy this graceful performance! Can you imagine F& F just gets better & better!

[@TruthSerum525]

Doesn’t get any better than this. Best cover ever.

[@onlybrad]

So glad I found you guys. Really nice work.

[@Yesica1993]

One of my all time favorites! (Tip given.)

[@davidmather3451]

I never tire of listening to this rendition.

[@highway1052]

These harmonies are unmatched by anyone, anywhere.

[@roberttidmore647]

It's great to hear good music Again! Thank you guys! Ole picker from Alabama! Rock on!

Concert ppv video of the December show (26 songs) airs May 5-8. Link in the description of their newest video.

[@jillrader2842]

EXCELLENT IN EVERY WAY!!!

[@saturnn77]

One of the most California songs ever....Reminds me when I was 15 years old hitch hiking down 101, and highway 1, from Portland to LA..Again, the most California song ever. Great Cover!!

[@JohnSomerset]

Just now catching this. All compliments and appreciation from here!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@74bshs]

Oh my, I just found this. It is quite good. This from a "Child of the 70's", and I know my stuff. Thanks for the great post! :)

[@jeanroy8283]

I paused this video and went to listen to the original version of America then came back to your version, man you guys' are so goooooooood, spot on, so much talent! Thanks for posting!

[@timcrawford8744]

My favorite song from college! Great song, performed by my favorite group!

He's (Toby) pretty amazing isn't he? 🥰🎶🎸

[@brucebaer531]

This is SO good. America is one of my favs!

[@markbosnick8006]

Yeah, one of the most beautiful songs ever composed and performed. It’s always been one of my favorites.

[@rickshade5305]

An amazing cover of the theme song from my youth. I grew up and continue to farm avocados along Ventura’s highways. Truly touching

[@1guarino]

You are a lucky guy, Rick. We have an avocado farm in San Marcos.

[@shop970]

Wow! The magic is still coming trhu from all the hard work! Like butter as always . Effortless! I'm getting old! I am old! Love it!

[@michaelwilliams3257]

[@richnorman5017]

WOW….. just WOW!!!!!! F & F….SOLID GOLD!!!!!!

[@lindaleary3019]

Love this allover again…

[@rodneylouw4923]

I was transported back to the '70s ... a really good time in my life ... 😊❤❤

[@BurtGiddings]

I moved away from Ventura in February, 1972... When this song came out in November of that same year, the memories of my childhood just flooded in. I know there is no Ventura Highway, but the PCH will take you there and that's what I picture whenever I hear this song. This F&F version gives me the same goose bumps and flooding precious memories - Fantastic Job, gang!

[@franksanchezjr240]

Brought back memories of great times in America. Thank you. Made my day.

[@georgemm5]

There is almost nothing in my life I can count more on than F&F.

[@ssgrf]

Wonderful, just wonderful.

[@roberthutchison8416]

Again this i prefer to the original. Great job!

[@danjustthinking1188]

This has always been one of my favorite songs

[@Greggspies]

I love America their vocals are unmatched your rendition was a ten

[@EricSeventyOne]

Four-seam fastball right down the middle on this one - well done, folks! One that I played (and sang) for several years with a fine group o' guys!

[@davidhoffmann4114]

New video from you is Christmas morning for us😀

[@Charles-jg8dz]

Great songs of the past performed by great talent. I'm glad to have lived during a time when Rock was King.

[@suebraschio6763]

I love ❤️ that you did this song 🎵 it's a song that still is so good when it comes on the radio everyone turns it up not off and you did it beautifully ❤️ ♥️ 💕 💜 💖

[@boblittmann5721]

Great version of this song-very faithful to the original!

[@powerpopster]

Well, well, well! It's a HAPPY Saturday for all the F&F fans. My wife and I used to watch all the great videos on her TV; this is the first time I'll be here for a debut....🤗🤗

[@mikejones-dt8vj]

Man that brings back some memories, cruising on a friday night

[@camero1974jb]

I saw America sing this tun 50 years ago. F&F brought the feeling and soul to the tune. You never disappoint .

[@mdogg1604]

You are SO correct, my friend!

[@censorshipsucks9493]

I saw America about 20 years ago, They sounded the same as they did off their albums. So does F&F.

[@jerrybach1234]

I've Heard (You Never Disappoint) somewhere else!! I'm sure some of you know where I'm talking about. Any Answers?

[@pattiswolf8218]

Ditto amd Amen 😇❤️
