Rock N Roll Boogie Woogie Blues & Hanging Around - Edgar Winter Group | The Midnight Special

[@TimJackson-eq6iy]

You can imagine the environment Edgar grew up with both his parents and brother being musicians.

[@dannyvalentine468]

Every video/picture I see of Edgar from this era, he has the coolest clothing haha.

[@johnmcleod8961]

bought the album "they only come out at night" back in the day when I was in high school...drive my dad nuts, I played it so much...I loved midnight special...came on Friday nights...but prior to that on Friday night was "in concert"...now that was kickass classic rock.

[@DaveReynolds-y3v]

Forget all the blather about timeless music. Now that's good time rock'n'roll!

[@gordoh7634]

I'm closing my eyes thinking really hard. And I think Hanging Around was the flip side of Frankenstein on the 45 record. We loved it as kids. Many decades later. I'm loving it again.

[@Eltamir]

Undercover man was the flip side.

[@cottagechskitty]

With my favorite underrated musician, Dan Hartman. Edgar's "right hand man" for several years

Dan’s fantastic bass playing, really stands OUT in the mix here, heck yeah!! So hard to play bass and sing at the same time, so talented!! 😅

[@JQ127-c4e]

Don't forget Jerry Weems on the SG and the amazing Chuck Ruff on drums!!

[@michaelkerins897]

Dan is quite acclaimed

[@angelaallen340]

The lead guitar is the stuff

[@GerardFrenchy59]

This is a real gem! I'm a big fan of the Winter brothers since the early '70s.Dan was an awesome artist. R. I. P😢❤From 🇫🇷 🌹

[@SteveKraus]

Edgar is classic 70's rock.

I saw the Edgar Winter Group tape an episode of the ABC network show "IN CONCERT" at the AQUARIOUS THEATRE in Hollywood when the first LP dropped, saw the DOORS there as well, KISS BEFORE the first platter came out, the make-up was slightly different, and they had a more heavy, evil vibe, Bad Company as well there just as their first LP dropped, and ALL those shows were FREE, yes, that's right, you lined up and got in for NOTHING. Same held true when I watched Edgar Winter and Bad Company tape a "DON KIRSHNER" show at the Long Beach Arena they used a smaller room off to the side made for corporate gatherings, just awesome, free again, ditto for Peter Frampton when the first "Frampton's Camel" came out, folks too young to have been there can't grasp that Frampton was a heavy, swaggering guitarist, a FAR CRY from the rubbish that the live LP became, he just wailed with his Black Beauty Les Paul and FOUR half-stack Marshalls, it was a GOLDEN AGE for Rock/Hard Rock in Los Angeles, and as I said, many of the shows were GRATIS, one of the good things about living and rocking in the Entertainment capital of the world in that era, and even those shows we paid for were cheap, hell, I saw BLIND FAITH, DELANEY and BONNIE and FREE in 1969 with money from collecting coke bottles and taking them back to the store, $3.50 cents at the L. A. Forum, and it WAS a great seat! Now......Well, you pay more for a hot dog at a show now than when I saw utter GODHEAD LEGENDS like HENDRIX, CREAM or PINK FLOYD for less than FIVE DOLLARS, for 20 bucks you got a ticket, grub, gas, and something to tighten up your wig with, ah, the days of the TEN DOLLAR, three fingers LID! And that's NO stems or seeds!

Hot damn you know these dudes were the ones pulling all the tail in the '70's!

[@BirdTalk13]

You know it!

[@StormLaker]

The Winters brothers.......both of them so talented. I've seen both live separately at different shows. Johnny was a blues powerhouse, and Edgar could just bring down the house, he was a freak of nature with that keyboard strapped around his neck! I can see how "Frankenstein" got its title, Edgar is just a one man band up there, haha.

[@timtv2826]

Great band from my teenage years, one of my favorites. Hangin' Around is a great tune, Dan Hartman was fantastic.

[@KittyGrizGriz]

Fantastic Songs!! ❤❤❤ Blues & Boogie!! Audience is really INTO it too! 👏👏👏

[@StephanieJeanne]

Edgar always puts on a great show! I love that outfit he wore and the background with pinks and oranges in it. 🤩

[@angelaallen340]

Love the guitar riff in " hanging round"

[@michaelcollums4197]

This is after Ronnie Montrose had left to form Montrose, this guitarist is Jerry Weems, he was a friend of the drummer Chuck Ruff.

[@baritony8763]

Both off of one of my fav albums. Don't forget Free Ride and Frankenstein---4 more reasons to hear it.

[@surveyordave]

Edgar Winter got me through my junior year in high school. Saw them on the Shock Treatment tour in '74, standing on a chair on the front row. 50 years ago and I can remember it like it was yesterday.

[@VinE83656]

Hangin' Around was always a favorite of mine. I got those teenage vibes of driving around doing nothing, listening to tunes and looking for something to do and hopefully coming across some girls.

[@mpmphilpott]

Chuck Ruff on the drums is so good.

[@MaxStax1]

I seriously haven't heard either of those songs since I bought the album, They Only Come Out at Night , back in Junior High School. I wore that album out. Hangin' Around was the first song on side one if i remember right.

[@dannyvalentine468]

Hangin' Around was the first song on Side 1, yes. Rock N Roll Boogie Woogie was song 2 on Side 2

[@angelaallen340]

I wore it out also.....I'm still listening...6/3/24

[@outtathyme5679]

Oh man the best

[@joecutietta2941]

Same here..heading up to Winterland with my krew..this quad eight track on full blast accompanied by " many clouds of smoke " billowing out the window..when " Frankenstein " came on it was like traveling in a spaceship..It was albums and bands like these that made me the man I am today..A Rock-N-Roll Dee Jay.." LONG LIVE ROCK!! "

[@angelaallen340]

I saw them on the " they only come out at night" tour....in Asheville, North Carolina

[@Eltamir]

Jerry Weems on guitar.

[@louisb5563]

👨🏻‍🦱I think that's the second time I've seen that guy, he looks like he took a Time travel through a space loop from the late 90s into the early seventies. The typical guys in Rock at that time were "long hairs", that much I DO remember from my childhood at that time! He looks so outta place, I bet Edgar loved it that he was just doin' his own thing and not a "cookie cutter product" of the rock and roll look! 😄👌🏼

[@Eltamir]

@@louisb5563 Apparently, he was AWOL from the military. Hence, the short hair.

Excellent performance! Would also love to see a EWG performance from Shock Treatment that includes Rick Derringer on guitar. IMO the Edgar, Rick, Dan, and Chuck version of the band was the best!

[@gregoryduncan3067]

Did the Midnight Special just give us a double 🤔? That's new.

The Focus guitarist in the Hocus Pocus video was wearing the same shirt as this guitarist.

Awesome channel! Are there any plans to upload Robert Fripp's appearance from 1979?

[@syarbrough8510]

Whoa shit! I jus caught that guitar riff @ :50 in sho as hell sounds like the motor city madman's Cat Scratch Fever. Ol' uncle Ted didn't possibly five finger that riff did he? 😂 Not sure when CSF came out, maybe '76-77, but it wasn't B4 this tune. Same thing with Mother's Finest-Mickeys Monkey. That entire guitar riff was blatantly stolen from Zepplin's Custard Pie. Who knows maybe MF got permission to use. Jus rattling my jaws lol. Great tunes either way, all of them

[@notacynic1]

I wish they could have kept this band together, but of course Montrose wasn't going to play in someone else's band for long

[@rosskstar]

band stock always goes up when >1 lead singer imo - contrast

[@danf4447]

where rick?? where RICK??? where RICK DERRINGER!!!!

a very young Ronnie Montrose.
