[@brokl26]

@@DonJuan-09 I’m half Ojibwe born to an Irish-French mother. mother didn’t accept me whole heartedly because I came out Brown with straight black hair. But the good news is that mother’s mom, my grandmother, didn’t accept me for the same exact reason. mother ( lower case “m” is on purpose ) was very abusive to me, physical and mental. I was sixteen and was in a fistfight in a neighboring small city and I was beaten pretty bad by a dude I considered a friend, along with his father. My “friend and I were watching MTV at his house when his dad came home and he was fuming that I was in his house. As he was destroying my character and completely tearing me down, I simply told him that I had no control of how I looked. My friend came running over and blasted me in my chest. I went into survival mode and was holding my own and that’s when the dad got behind me and wrapped his arms around my neck and let my “friend” continue his assault on my face. After I drove the forty miles to my rural house, mother greeted me in the kitchen and demanded to know what happened, so I filled her in. She said that I should know better because nobody wants some Indian kid in their house and that the only reason I’m allowed in her house is because I’m a minor and her son. I asked her, “If you hate the fact I’m Native American and brown so much, why did you ever sleep with my father?” mother slapped me across my face and sent me to my room and grounded me for three weeks. Remember, I was sixteen. As bad as mother was, my step-dad was the polar opposite. My step-dad was the greatest man I’ve ever known. When my step-dad was home, mother behaved. Two weeks after my severe beating, mother made a comment, in front of Smitty ( my step-dad ) about me getting repulsively too dark in the summer. I told mother, “ I can’t really help what the Sun does to me and it’s mostly from my job working for ( a local farmer ).” Mom considered this sass and swung her hand to hit me in my face, but for the only time, I caught mother’s hand. mother stormed off. Smitty then asked me how long had mother acted like that. I told Smitty that it was my whole life and when he’s not around. Smitty went to chat with mother. And when Smitty asked mother, “Why?” mother simply said because she never wanted a “Prairie Nigger” for a son. Mother made me ashamed to be of Native American decent. It wasn’t until I had my first child in 1988 that I started to embrace my Native American Heritage. I’m fifty-seven years old and love the fact I’m Native. And Redbone has played a major part in my acceptance of my racial identity. And for that I am more than grateful. I never met my real father. He died when I was three, not knowing he had a son. mother didn’t even share his name with me. I found his family because of Ancestry.com. I’ve met about one hundred of the members of his, and my, family since. mother passed away at forty-nine years old in 1991. I do miss her daily. I love her completely. Smitty, he always loved me and I’ve always known that for a fact. I apologize for being so wordy. I just felt like this was a reasonable spot to share part of my life’s story.

@@JamesBuggemo It's called respect my man. Plus, in case you weren't aware, there is some significant history of pain and suffering of Native Americans. It's not talked about, but it's honestly on the level (and, while not a popular opinion I believe surpasses) the atrocities of slavery. We are talking genocide here. So, yeah, have some respect. The OP knows a little about genocide since Australian indigents have been struggling for centuries against abuse and genocide. It wasn't until the 80s and some enterprising people, including Midnight Oil, who brought the rest of the world vision into those atrocities. The lead singer of that group went on to serve in some political capacity as well - I don't remember the details now - so it wasn't just a bunch of young men letting out their angst.

Those concerts were a lot of fun, one of our best friends (still) is 100% Navaho, she and her 10 siblings were good friends with me and my siblings. Fun memory of playing ping pong with this guy, Glenn, at a Redbone concert, he told us he was on the Olympic team going to China, he was the real table tennis player that Forest Gump was photoshopped into. I was watching the Olympics with my dad, also named Glenn, and I saw the cute long brown haired Glenn, who wore Aviator glasses like my young dad, and I told dad I knew him and had played Ping Pong with him, and that his name was Glenn, dad knew we knew lots of people, but he was surprised by that.

From Wikipedia: Redbone is an American rock band formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1969 by brothers Pat and Lolly Vegas. All members during their commercial peak and success were of Mexican American and Native American heritage, which heavily reflected in their songs, stage costumes, and album art. They reached the Top 5 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1974 with their hit single, "Come and Get Your Love". The single went certified Gold selling over a million copies. It also made Redbone the first Native American band to reach the top five on the US Billboard Hot 100, with the song reaching number 5.[1] Redbone achieved success with their singles "We Were All Wounded at Wounded Knee", "The Witch Queen of New Orleans", "Wovoka", and "Maggie" in the United States, although these songs were more successful overseas. Pat has been the sole member of the band since Lolly's death in 2010.

@ Iamtheocean Thank you for posting this. Truly a piece of musical history. I was just a young girl when they appeared on Midnight Special. As was then as in now i couldn't sit still to this song. Just a great cheerful tune to rock out to. Be Blessed Aho!

[@PhillipManganaro]

I was like 10 and my cool big sister let me stay up and watch midnight special, I remember this. I loved growing up in the 70s best music and best of times. It was simple and free

[@dyingforpie6879]

Amen

[@dananorth895]

Yep, we had Rock Concert, Don Kirchners Rock Concert and Midnight Special. I don't think Austin City Limits was created yet. But MS and DKRC would come on at the same time diferent channels. You try to catch the opening lineups and flick back and forth to catch your fav acts! Lol

[@rudolfkurtz9847]

i´m floored, they made america great again, Thank You Gentlemen! greetings from vienna austria (no wonder Jimi Hendrix wanted to be in that band, man!!!)

[@stevesteve1198]

I remember these guys well. They were awesome. Who can forget that song, man? I'm 76 years old, still dig in it.

[@gordoh7634]

One of the great catchy tunes of the mid seventies for sure. And culturally just something that touches all of our hearts that band was really cool.

[@Koch-Locke]

This song was almost in constant play on the radio back in the day. The Drummer is sporting an LA Era C-650 Camco kit, & by far the Stradivarius of drums, still to this day…

[@marty4278]

I was wondering if he had good kick ass drums…I know nothing about drums except that I love their sound and the drummers are so great.

[@Koch-Locke]

@ What makes them Soo Brilliant is a combination of a few designs all coming together at once. And they can never be remade or recreated…The Shells are 6 plys of Old Growth North American Hardrock Maple that are approximately 1/4” smaller in diameter than standard shells so they tune like timpani. The Bearing Edges were very precise and the profile maximizes head to shell contact. The Shells were all thin with sound focusing reenforcement rings. Early Camcos Sported Triple Chrome Plated Brass Hoops which made the drums sound better than shells with steel hoops, brass just sounds better than steel. Unfortunately Jasper doesn’t make drum shells any longer and Tama owns the legal rights to the design of the shells and the bearing edge design. So they can’t ever be remade… To find a kit isn’t that easy but on a good note they are built to last hundreds of years and the cost is still reasonable…

[@rhythmista7707]

@@Koch-Locke Ron Dunnett is doing a pretty decent job with his Camco kits..

[@jackflack4253]

Looks like I'm 1 of few people who knew they were from an indigenous tribes. We felt lucky that one of three tv stations aired the midnight special and mom let us watch it.

[@1987whitez]

I love my Native Americans brothers. Enjoy the music back in the day

Note to modern performers: Notice how when he looks down and comes away from the mic, that his vocals drop a bit? Yea, that’s called “live performance”. The real kind.

[@autumnishotterthansummer]

This! Like when you can hear a radio host turn their head. I love live shows when they sound great.

[@neonmeate8180]

Why does literally every video of music before like 2000 have some cornball variation of this comment or “No autotune here”?

[@kermitefrog64]

This is incredible. I still here this song on the radio. I did not realize that this was a group from Native Americans. This is great. They were the first musicians on the continent.

[@kermitefrog64]

My Great Great Grandmother was from the Ho-Chunk people of Nebraska often referred to as the Winnebago people.

[@zephyrk994]

awww Lolly and Pat .... Redbone, such a great and underrated band ... I was a very young girl when this song came out but remember dancing to it at the youth center in Vogelweh Germany ...KTown Raiders forever ...RIP Tony and Lolly ...

[@ritamontoya-ur6kt]

I was so in love with guys. I was so proud they were Native & my people were being represented.

[@YANN69440]

great - I am 74 old I live in France and have all LP from REDBONE ! Thanks for this sharing

I have loved this song since it first came out! And I remember this Midnight Special! Awww!

[@bytornsnowdog2112]

The drummer is awesome! I like the way he plays.

[@traceymicolucci1151]

I'm truly blessed to have gotten a pair of drumsticks signed by Butch. I had him sign them to my son.

[@rockahbilly76]

Tightest native American rock band ever! Probably the ONLY one.

[@NellieKAdaba]

The only Native American rock band I know, I think.

[@zeidenmedia]

They were brilliant, talented hotties that showcased their rich culture. I want more of that, please!

[@ellendolloff9127]

Loved it when it first came out and still love it at 70 years young.

[@relytj321]

I was watching season 1, episode 5 of "Reservation Dogs" where the Lighthorseman was telling the kid about Redbone being a band made up of Native Americans. They even named the episode "Come and Get Your Love." Pretty cool. And they perform this live very well. Also cool how Midnight Special actually has bands play live.

Wow...the intro of the native dance was fantastic...👍👍🇸🇻🇸🇻

[@keithchatting6597]

Never knew Redbone was a Native American Band. Always loved this song.

[@jamesfox8191]

Great music, great band, great show. Always watched Midnight Special - wish it was still around.

[@debbieblaylock9997]

Love this song and love Redbone RIP Pat and Lolly .❤❤❤

[@kiwigirl49]

Pat Vegas is still alive. Pete Depoe is still alive. Maybe you mean Butch Rillera who passed over in February 2024.

[@cherylalikhani5957]

I'm glad I didn't see this video when I was a teen, I would have fallen deeply in love with the dancer.

[@pablohernandez1159]

I went to school with their brother Ray and sister Terry Vasquez. They maybe native Americans. I m of the Humano Indians who were mainly killed and absorbed into Apache in Chi. Mexico all the way to San Angelo Texas. Like the music.Good people.Heard helped a lot of new people in town.

[@jbocaboss2025]

RIP Lolly! Your creational masterpiece is a fabric of 70's music!

[@Sandi-ke9mi]

I don’t remember any bad songs from the 70s❣️🥰

[@skwrttj]

Every Decade had its share of great AND awful songs. The good ones tend to be played decades later. Life is like that … 🥰

[@surfjunkie7925]

I was spending the night at friend’s house in JR High. We stayed up and watched this. Wow, I would have never dreamed of seeing this again

[@jamesearlcash1758]

It would be really cool to see something like this on the mainstream in 2024. All ya need is that one good song like this one to ignite the fire.

[@Matticus289]

That snare drum...so clean and tight

[@cristianmolina8148]

I was thinking the same..drummer had nice groove and some funky chops...

[@CarmencCasillas]

Thank you he will. Never be forgotten in his song Come & get your Love 🕊 🇲🇽 🇺🇸

Back I'm the 70s my dad saw this incredible band live and passed a joint to lead singer Lolly Vegas ...he hit it and proceeded to play this song...my dad (65) is a legend

[@kathyweeks8222]

What an amazingly talented group of individuals and group IMO, they didn't get recognized nearly so much as they richly deserved!

[@saulovernow]

They were recognized a lot. There was tons of music out there. Unless you were hooked on one band you had a lot to digest in those day.check out lolly and pat in their younger years, they were very popular😃

[@christinaragsdale9067]

This was a big hit everywhere, but especially in California's Central Valley where I grew up. This was my senior year of high school and it was in constant play on local radio stations. Still sounds awesome!

My great-great-grandmother was also native, she was an Indian, I believe she was of Cherokkee blood too, her name was Clementine she ran away from the village, from the bush running with my grandfather who became her husband, and they ran away from the bush , from the indigenous reserve in thoses ancient times, and married my grandfather, my great-great-grandfather was almost killed, burned alive while tied to a dry tree trunk, my great-great-grandmother, that Indian woman, felt sorry, she had compassion, she felt sorry for him then he untied my grandfather from the trunk, while the other's Indians were looking for firewood, sticks to make a fire to burn my great-great-grandfather alive at the stake, then he took her to the big city, to the urban area, they got married, and untill my great-great-grandmother captured the our language, our local language in my country, was a lot of work, and for him to live the habits, the tradition, the habits, and customs of high society, of the urban area, it took work, it gave her something to do to get used to it. All things!!.

[@AmandaHugandKiss411]

Yes we know how everyone in America has a great great grandmother of Cherokee decent, a warrior princess that was captured, but fought her way to her lover who was Apache and they took a canoe across the Mojave desert and then they climbed the Colorado Mountains during a Blizzard, where she kept them alive by using her own flesh she cut from her thigh to use as bait to feed him and their first child. Then she was captured by the Iroquois who killed her husband and son. But she was brave and courageous and won over the chief's highest council, who helped the 5 Nation's to fight and win against the Algonquin and to help over throw the British and formed what we now know as the state of New York. Yes we all know about your Great Great Native Grandmothers.
