That voice ❤ INCREDIBLE.......

[@DKLGalactus5]

what a great song, reminds me of a long lost love from my youth.

[@johnnyg7899]

They deserved to be in the music hall of fame. So underrated. Music for eternity. I am so grateful to have experienced their beautiful music. Cannot ever compare to today's heartless music.

[@davelehman164]

I love their music and wish we could hear similar songs today.

[@dennismclaurin1487]

YES!!

[@mariamarinucci2251]

Me too. Love their music, brings back beautiful memories for me.

[@rayslack4120]

Dennis Yost one of the best and the band . I just learned he passed away and I'am heart broken because he will be missed.

[@MichaelBoyce-tm2vw]

His wife is now caretaker of the groups Facebook page.

[@dickdomain719]

He had a beautiful voice with a really high range when needed.

[@janeteoliveira4040]

Música linda 😍😍😍

[@grouchosays]

I saw him at an outdoor concert. It started to rain and everyone ran under the bleachers. I looked around and Dennis was standing right next to me! So was Barbara Lewis! Had a great short conversations.

That was cool man. Thee originals are dennis yost. Wally easton and english white on sax. The other two guys i dont know

[@michaelericksonmusic]

The guitar player was actually me - age 23 at the time. The drummer is the promoter that booked the show. And yes, unfortunately, it was sync'd, in front of a live audience. It was fun. :)

[@joaquinybarra8184]

[@michaelericksonmusic]

@@gordon2422 Ah! I did not know that. Sorry, and thank you!

[@gordon2422]

@@michaelericksonmusic Jacksonville has a great history of music, in particular Southern Rock, with bands that formed here such as the Allman Brothers Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, .38 Special, Molly Hatchet, Blackfoot, Rossington-Collins, etc. The Classics IV pre-dated these bands, and 3 of their band members went on to form the Atlanta Rhythm Section, which can be referred to as the Jacksonville Rhythm Section, lol. Other bands came later such as Limp Bizkit, Shinedown, etc.

[@michaelericksonmusic]

@@gordon2422 That is very cool info - none f which I knew. thank VERY much for sharing that. Jacksonville sounds like a hot region musically! 😎

[@josephnobile7451]

He sounds the same live or not,2like live is very hard2do,original LPS better, wish they had more known songs,like fab4did, his voice isA+spiral staircase also great!!

[@dennismclaurin1487]

It sounds like the original recording.

[@oldiesgeek1]

You're right, it is the original recording. The musicians are just pretending to play. They may have removed the vocal track however, so at least Dennis could sing live to it. But, it appears he's doing a lip-sync performance.

[@GalaxyDaveD]

Haven't seen this since 1986. Sad this whole performance is a lip sync.

[@TonysMusic1974]

Is this guy REALLY lip synching to the original recording 17 years later???? Wow.

[@michaelericksonmusic]

Is this guy, with a channel of himself lip syncing to his own recordings, REALLY commenting on a lip sync from 37 years ago???? Wow.

[@TonysMusic1974]

@michaelericksonmusic big difference Einstein. I'm playing all the instruments and not 17 years prior. Also, I don't describe them as live performances

[@michaelericksonmusic]

@@TonysMusic1974 ​ This is not described as a LIVE performance. It's just a very typical T.V. lip sync - happened all the time, "Einstein."

[@TonysMusic1974]

@@michaelericksonmusic sure. It happened all the time . . . . To a recently recorded track - or they sing live to the recently recorded backing track. Don't try to brush this off as normal. It wasn't - even for 1986. It was super cheesy.

[@user-Stephen-1967]

My question is simple, Why not play it live ? ? ? It appears the original instruments, but not players, are present, also without the String instruments.

[@markl5562]

The whole thing was lip synched? That's pretty lame

[@stevebobamerican8635]

This is clearly lip-syncing, that’s a shame.
