I love your content man. I've been asking this for a while, but please check out the album Liars by Todd Rundgren. You'll really enjoy it. And so will everyone watching. Todd is a legend with tons of hits. But this album isn't know as much by the masses. It's a definite gem

Steve Miller had so many great songs in the 70s and into the 80s. So talented. Glad you're checking out his stuff.

[@larryronkq586]

Most were in the 1970s ,,

[@SuperGuitarDude7]

@@larryronkq586 I agree, but Abracadabra was 1982 and was a huge hit for him, even though I didn't love it love it, and his album Living in the 20th Century came out in 1986 and had a big rock charts hit with I Want to Make The World Turn Around. I loved that album because half of it was covers of old blues songs.

Steve Miller's lyrics were like a treasure trove for the dirty mind: "Jungle love in the surf in the pouring rain, everything's better when wet" "Really love your peaches, wanna shake your tree."

[@peterthegreat996]

And he still can add in some deep commentary....but the patterns of the rain and the truth they contain...protect and keep you from harm ....we all face a scarlet confusion but we spend our time in a dream

[@hk-wr2jt]

Sorry. Steve Miller does not play guitar on this one.

[@obbor4]

@@dane_gerous1 I guess I may be mistaken. The two times that I saw him live, he played guitar the entire night. I'm assuming that the nickname Stevie "Guitar" Miller indicates something that he is noted for.

[@joannwoodworth8920]

If you want to go further back in Steve Miller’s catalog, try LIVING IN THE U.S.A. (1968, listed as Steve Miller Band). It’s a funky, soulful, edgier rock track.

[@angiespurs5773]

Oh wow, I'm just flooded with so many memories!!! I think it was 1998 or 99 a whole group of us ladies went on a camping trip and drove the whole way listening to the album. We finally get there, get ourselves to a picnic table after getting all our stuff out and continue listening to Steve Miller. We ended up on the table dancing to this song. Good times! Loved them live in concert too ❤️💯🎶

[@christopherdawson9570]

The "shaky things" are called Maracas and one of the old folk ways they're made is drying a particular kind of gourd and the dried seeds rattle inside the dried gourd shell ,others can be opened and have dried beans or corn kernels put in them and resealed with artist glue and they can also be made of wood on a lathe. They can be hand painted or finished in a natural oil rubbed or beeswax finishes and are an awesome souvenir of Latin cultures and even better if you dig music and play it too!!👌👍👊😎✌💯

[@sandybarnes887]

If by 'salt shakers' you mean rumba shaker or chac-chac, which are marakas, I agree 100% Latin vibe.

[@markmiwurdz202]

The guy on the "shakers"/maracas is the late Norton Buffalo. He was with Steve's touring band for many years on harmony vocals, harmonica and percussion. Check out the instrumental "Buffalo's Serenade" with Steve and Norton trading licks on guitar and harp respectively, They used to do this as a second encore to close the show back in the day. RIP Norton Buffalo. Thank you for the part you played in The Steve Miller Band live. You sure are missed.

Jamal , once again you bring pure joy to our hearts . Have a look at the Scottish band Del Amitri , they had a hit in the states with "roll to me " but they have gorgeous songs with beautiful lyrics , I'd recommend " be my downfall " , " driving with the brakes on " or " tell her this "

I was around 12 when I heard this Jungle Love and 19 when I the Morris Day and The Time song with the same name came out. I think most people around my age would be very familiar with both. The Steve Miller Band song was played on the radio a lot and the Time song was played on MTV a lot after the Purple Rain movie. I thoroughly enjoy both songs and they both are great for getting your feet moving. I think the salt shaker things you are thinking of are called maracas.
