Chris Hillman has always been a great player and singer.

[@thomasmarthinussen8978]

A natural progression from their Folk Rock days as The Byrds. Here they were in the late 70s brining a contemporary Soft Rock to their music and its smooth sounding indeed!

[@wolfgangflywheel4307]

This clip is in great condition better than anything else coming out of the 70's!

[@pattichapinschneidermaluze3247]

I would like to thank the Dutch people for allowing us to see this. I am also happy that they like our music, cool

[@douglasdegraff8335]

When this album, no hesitation whatsoever. Beautiful Songs. Chris Hillman and Gene Clark, genius! Miss him

[@gsrae1199]

Great song from a great album

[@MaureenDeVries-wd9mh]

Good song

[@hermanschwartz2705]

I used to write popular songs on 'diary' calendars I kept for posterity...this is one of those song titles I had forgotten from early 1979. Wow. The memories came flowing back in. Thanks to TopPop for those memories.

Chris Hillman es una leyenda .

[@ronthompson7450]

A great song with a great performance!!

[@coachaggie14]

Great album

[@karyluhernandez5966]

Bonita voz de Hillman

[@evimlck4579]

One of the most beautiful guitar solos is in this song. The album came out in about '79 and Istill kept this one.

I've been looking for this song for years!! (Have the album, this is my favorite song.) Thank you so much for posting this.

[@petergustaf7234]

Ramona Roffe Like many of the songs on the album. The one that struck me most, still does, love to sing along with "Feelin' Higher."

[@artistglyn]

Ooohhhh.....takes me back. We were just soooo cool then.

[@frankhanssens3431]

The legendary Byrds in 1979. A great album!

[@Rickytwelvestring]

3/5th of the Byrds....

[@tapewormbreath8878]

@@Rickytwelvestring with about 1/100th of their previous ability still intact...this is just bad stuff...heavily-produced and strictly for $$$...

[@thetruthfornow6045]

A little Fleetwood Mac here. I can hear Stevie singing. That steady Fleetwood beat.

[@patriciagullickson2046]

I like the way they harmonize better than CSN

[@jecv7253]

You keep comin' back to me again and again I think you want to love me but you won't say when How do I deal with this longing in my heart So wait for our love affair to start Surrender to me with your heart and soul Stay by my side my love will keep you whole Surrender to me with your own free will Say you will, say you will You've got to give me some kind of sign If I knew how you felt I'd have more peace of mind Ain't gonna let you just walk out of my life If I wind up a fool, baby that's all right Surrender to me with your heart and soul Stay by my side my love will keep you whole Surrender to me with your own free will Say you will, say you will Surrender to me with your heart and soul Stay by my side my love will keep you whole Surrender to me with your own free will Say you will, say you will Say you will Surrender to me, surrender to me Surrender to me, surrender to me

[@RobbyLakeMusic]

Awesome!

[@TheShadowfakx]

Awesome. Beautifully wrought instrumental at the end pleads as the lyrics do ( who is that guy playing ?? ).... and wow the orchestral tuneup at the outset.

[@tapewormbreath8878]

That's Klaus the Klingon...on the ghe-tar

[@beestie666]

John Sambataro

[@leefeldmanredick]

The sound transmission is much better on this upload; but, I'm not enthused by the stage theatrics. Regardless, this is a beautiful rendition of a beautiful song. I very much appreciate the hopping bass driven melody. Good stuff, yes?

[@PAULLONDEN]

Lee Redick ___No

[@connieperry1575]

lost touch with Kathy Kessler- love you

[@johnstephen7610]

This is a very odd video. At the start (after the orchestral tuneup and Mc/H/C come in), they're not actually playing those instruments. You can see McGuinn isn't playing, even though the guitar is making noise from somewhere, and at one point Hillman stops playing his bass guitar but the bass guitar keeps on sounding. I guess they were just lip-synching to a recording, but in an odd way.

[@fanmaxis3004]

Oh what a 70s Byrds could have been

[@the-np4mr]

0:30 lmao

[@ljamkraut7796]

Sorry about poor quality of video

[@dennisdemark8151]

Like this...but I have to say it's very, very far from the influential sounds of The Byrds by leaps and bounds 🎤🎶🎶🎶🎸🎸🎸🎸🥁

[@robertbrendler1703]

The Eagles before there were Eagles

[@digiman47]

Nope

[@michaelavonka.7550]

The Byrds after they were the Byrds. But it sounds very "Eagle-ish" ;)

[@tapewormbreath8878]

Hillman is SOOO burnt-out...cocaine-eyes, no sleep...the end of the post-Byrds...great guitar solo by Klaus the Klingon...

[@danoblue]

Not live, but lip-synched.

[@Tom-bs3zh]

I'm sorry, but with Gene, Rodger, and Chris being musical geniuses, I can't help but feel that they were trying to cash out on the disco era sound. I think this album would have been better, had they stayed true to their sound and their roots.

[@patriciagullickson2046]

$$$$$$$ talks..... Why should they be different than any other rock band

[@Tom-bs3zh]

@@patriciagullickson2046 That's the thing, they might have thought jumping on the disco train would earn them money, but if they made an album true to themselves it definitely would have had more of an impact, and probably do better that this album that didn't do too well.

[@padraigreynolds]

Agree 1000% listen to the acoustic live sessions of same songs. So much better.

[@connieperry1575]

1I love these guys but Chris Hillman is so icky in this!!!!!

[@jimratzlaff3112]

Too poppy for my taste. That changed with the addition of Clarence White.

[@randallkennedy2066]

Cheesy production and arrangements.They deserved better.
