Jay, the conga player (percussionist) on this track is Eddied Guzman. Drummer Pete Rivera is their lead singer. In 1985 I had the honor of playing in a band that warmed them up in a club in Palatine Il.. The stage power went out in the middle of this song but the drummer kept playing. While the stage hands were all scrambling to find the problem, everyone in the crowd started singing the chorus, 'I just want to Celebrate" along with the drummer till the issue was fixed. Was a GREAT time!

If you do 'Get Ready', you will probably do the single version. But do yourselves a big favor and at least take the time to listen to the album version, where they totally stretch out as a band. The song takes up a whole album side and when it's done (about 21 minutes), you still want more! They also do a fantastic cover of The Beatles 'Eleanor Rigby'.

Dear Fam, I am thrilled y’all finally got to hear some Rate Earth. The drummer Peter Rivera is the lead singer. This is IMHO one of the best live bands of the late ‘60s-early ‘70s. The Motown classic “Get Ready” is probably their most popular song. They jam to it. Most versions are 17-23 minutes long on their live albums. Jay you will love this as everyone in the band gets a solo in it to amazing effect. Amber will love the trippy quality and the brass in it. This song was also recorded by the Temptations and also Gladys Knight and the Pips. An anthem of the era. I hope you check it out.

Jay is right. Music really became a business in the 70's and a lot of people attribute that to Frampton Comes Alive.

I saw Rare Earth in Vegas for free. Outdoors at the freemont exspirence Summer of love 2009. The original drummer wasn't there. The drummer was a black man who was a singer an awesome drummer. The show was gifted by the casino's the last song they sung before their half time break was Papa Was A Rolling Stone where ever he layed his hat was his home. Well, a lady showed up late she was a CEO from the Casino that paid for the show. She didn't get to hear her favorite song so she requested they play it again. Out of all the concerts I've been to this was the first an only time a band played a song twice. I was blown away . It was perfect. It sounded like they just played the record over again but it was live . Not one note was out of place. I got to see the original drummer that played with a band that warmed up for Elvin Bishop. In Henderson NV. The one thing that a lot of people don't know is Rare Earth is the only white band excepted into Motown record label.

Yet another band I have seen live. I'm talking mid 1970's and not the old folk's rendition that toured 30 years later. The lead singer plays a stand-up snare. Their percussion section often goes 3-4 people strong depending on the tune. The band "Stories" (Brother Louise) opened for them. My favorite songs by Rare Earth: "Born to Wander" (by far my favorite tune by them and if you liked the flute in Jethro Tull's "Locomotive Breath", then this tune is right up your alley) and "Big Brother". "Tobacco Road" is really good as well.

Rare Earth, the one and only ( at least 70’s or before ) Motown white rock band. They did a lot of Motown covers as Berry Gordy kept all his band under tight control, great Jams. I would recommend live versions of “Get Ready” or “I Know I’m losing You”. The Album In Concert is one of my favorites, not just this band but any band, top ten for me. The two songs I recommended are long but worth the extra time. Such a cool band, glad you finally got around to them, hope you explore more!

Yesterday the standard was talent. Pure and simple. Today it's about style over substance. Packaging a look. And the technical applications of the computer that give the music a sterile perfection and auto-mechanics that Rob it of emotion and bite. There is very little if any authenticity left in music today. The human element has been sacrificed for cosmetic efficiency and the bottom line. Nothing new is created. Which makes old music all the more valuable. Enjoy.

Back in 1992. I was working an outdoor job with a partner that I wasn't getting along with and was a lot of tension. It was a chilly gloomy day in February and the sun hadn't been out all day. As soon as this song came on the radio the sun came out for the duration of the song and didn't come back out again the rest of the day. True story.

I just love how you guys have expanded your musical horizon with so much wonderful music. It's great seeing the new generations enjoying what we boomers brought into this world, authentic ageless music, pure voices, so many talented musicians and singers. Each one with their particular voice and style. Each one different from the other. It's so satisfying seeing you guys discovering this new world of music and being blown away by it. Love you guys. You're awesome.

Rare Earth was the first white band to sign with Mowtown! THEY ARE GREAT!!! Listen to the 20 minute version of Get Ready. Absolutely a magical ride!

Studio version....not live, although they add a live crowd to the song. It's a studio mix.

"I'm Losing You" was another hit by them. This is another band you can hear on the radio. Classic. Patreon Movie Suggestions: Besieged (1998), Best In Show (2000) (dog show movie), Best Laid Plans (1999).

Has to be the 11 minute version of I Know I’m Losing You. The radio version is only 3 minutes! The best parts are cut out.

Jay & Amber, they are the 1st all white group to be signed by Barry Gordy of Motown records to a recording contract in 1969 or 1970

Two of my favourite bands on the same day. O'Jays and Rare Earth.😁 Rare Earth were one of the few white acts on the Motown label, which speaks to their soulful sound. Losing You, and Big Brother are both great songs.
