Sweet City Woman by Stampeders (Official Video)

[@kenlaing9249]

This is one of the happiest songs ever recorded and I've loved it from its release way back when in 1971!

[@Richard-zi3dy]

This song made me happy back in 71 and still does now in 2022

[@mikedavison3400]

@ Ken & Richard Lifts my spirits the second I hear it. Was 15 when it came out.

[@laurametheny1008]

I was only 10 or 11 but I damned sure never forgot this song. Love it. I have to say Thank God for KZbin. Etc. So many things I would never have seen or heard. They're good for something😂🤘🏼

[@murraymadness4674]

Another one of my favorites, gotta play it once a while and enjoy it over again every time. wife and I sing along

[@280StJohnsPl]

I really like this song but can't remember hearing it back then....I was stationed in England with the USAF at the time

[@debdo1960]

Love this song. I can still see my brother dancing around our living room to this song the year b4 he died. Sweet memories. RIP Matt....this one's for you 😎💕💕💕

[@immafaint673]

Aww. So sorry for your loss.

[@bobf.5538]

Love how they merge the 1971 video with this live version all these years later...fantastic

[@markheneghan3804]

I think The Stampeders are having more fun playing as Senior Citizens than when they were young man. Gives old guys HOPE.

[@todddanforth8853]

We badly need hope!!!

[@harryodell9497]

We all get old, but can we all still jam like these dudes?

My wife (gf) saw them live at the Cominco Arena Trail BC IN THE 70’s! This is the first time Ive seen this video (2024) and yes, the old boys haven’t changed one bit unlike so many others!💕🇨🇦

Great...unlike the 1971 video, we get to actually SEE the Banjo Player!

Love me some Stampeders, I remember when it first hit the AM station WHB in Kansas City Missouri

[@johnlafleur9251]

One of the favorite feel good songs of my youth growing up in Canada. R.I.P. to Bassist Ronnie King who passed away this year at age 76.

[@eah8101]

One of the best and most underrated songs from the 1970s -- always has been a personal favorite -- such a great, happy vibe.

[@donnaogorman4935]

Oh geez...my favourite song ever. One of my best memories ever...going to visit my relatives in Calgary and my cousin surprised me...she had bought tickets to see them at the Jubilee Auditorium. Also saw them here in Toronto. The date today March 5, 2024. It was meant to be this clip popped up. It will be 20 years ago in 3 days that my dear cousin Marilyn died. 😪 Sometimes things happen for a reason and seeing this clip made me smile and tear up at the same time. Actually everything happens for a reason. 😘 From Toronto

[@karlbotkin2349]

Great song. From '70-'72, while in Highschool in Kentucky, I worked on a 350 acre Dairy Farm. We used to hear"Sweet City Woman loud and clear at 5:00 AM while milking our Holstein Cows." There were 3 of us on a milking shift and we would sing along loudly to the song. Great times, hard work, but a lot of fun with music. We used to hear music on a radio station from Fort Wayne, Indiana. The D.J.'s used to say, "music from the little Red Barns of Indiana!"Fond memories! Thank you Stampeders! Karl Botkin. Long Island New York.

[@randomguy6117]

With all the negativity in the world these days we especially need to appreciate the people who bring joy into it.

[@DaveLL500]

I was 11 when the Stampeders were parade marshalls at the Calgary Stampede in 1972. Cowtown is still home to me after all these years. Thanks Rich, Ronnie and Kim for Sweet City Woman!

[@stevealaskaman5680]

Sometimes KZbins random drops pays off….what a great song, can’t not smile. Thanks Stampeders!

[@Sam-cz2bz]

The 70s has got to be the best decade for music. Great music, lyrics, dress, character , style , the lot.

[@russellnorth1418]

I agree Sam, this era was wonderful. I hope you are doing well

[@jajakabakaugbu]

[@StratmanDarrell]

I remember as a kid in my dad's restaurant in Blind River, Northern Ontario this song would play on the Juke Box everyday for about 4 months 30X a day. Then in 1979 I invited you guys to play at my high school. You guys did an awesome job. But you played guitar and made it sound like a banjo. HOw did you do that? So many hits!

[@markstahle874]

1971-2021 50 years plus later their number 1 hit still sounds great today! The only band I know that used the candy word "Macaroons" in a song! I also loved the way The Stampeders used their old 1971 video performances and slowly go to them currently. Great job!

[@miketomasini346]

I love Macaroons yes I tell people that’s what they say in the song

[@FrankStrait-x4t]

Congrats! Y'all still sound great over 50 years later. Keep rockin'.

As an 8 year old I remember constantly hearing this song on the radio. It was everywhere and rightfully so. Fantastic vocals, playing and melody. I sang "Sweet Silly Woman" but...I was 8 years old. The only time I've ever seen anyone happier playing a cowbell was watching Will Ferrell on SNL. "I got a fever! Long Live Gene Frenkle!
