Sitting here for the past 2 hours .. Twighlights,Billy thorpe & Aztecs, Chain , Masters Apprentices the list goes on .. reliving my teens .. how spoilt were we !! Cmon Aussies Cmon !!!

What a unique voice Matt taylor has. Instantly recognisable. How strong was Aussie rock in their time.. Memories.

bloody hell ! we just didn't know how good we had it back then ay ,we lived in the best times and had the best music and talent life was fantastic , that was so good listening and watching phil and mat again god bless em

Matt Taylor what a legend

I might not remember everything when I was young ... But damn I remember feeling the power of Matt, Phil and Chain

First time hearing this.. I was born in 82... Seems as tho I was late to the party haha. Man, how awesome is this gig?!! I've just purchased to vinyl to play it on my record player!

Absolutely LOVED Chain. Produced some of the best Blues rock,ever!!

There was something magical about watching these guys live. It's impossible to describe but I will never forget it.

My kids don’t believe how good things were back in our day. Some of the ‘unbelievable’ events that we witnessed, experienced and practiced ARE to be believed !!!

Long gone are the days when music of this calibre was written and performed.

i was there...what an incredible 2 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Long gone are the days when music of this calibre was written and performed. Aussie bands are THE BEST!!!

Matt Taylor Phil Manning Band, Subiaco Hotel 1981, I was only 19 and boy did they light a fire in my music life. Cherished days from long ago will never be forgotten. They knew how to perform live music and thrill the crowd.

If you remember what 3XY was, your a Melbournian and classic rock was played on AM.

at 68 i remember when i was young. this song is my life story. love chain.

Memories! I remember when I was young - the Beatles Turned Me on, they Really Blew My Mind.... And to think Matt's lyric was written in the early 70's, that makes me feel old.... What a hard rock CLASSIC!

My oldest brother passed this morning at 2am and he was Chains roadie. So I'm just doing some reminiscing ❤ Love you Matty, Phil & Co. We definitely had fantastic live music. ❤

Two of my best memories are seeing both Matt and Phil perform the old Chain songs - sadly not together - but they were both awesome. Huge talents and great music.

Great stuff. I was absolutely blessed to work during this golden age of Australian music. I played and had a small sound and lighting company from the mid 70s until 84 based in Sydney. Just before this performance I was doing FOH for a young band for three weeks at a den of iniquity called The Bombay Rock in Surfers Paradise. The last weekend Matt and Chain came in for two nights. I still remember how well they treated the young band I worked for. Spent a lot of time talking to them, encouraging them etc. Great musicians, even better people.

Live at Sunbury was soooo good!

One thing about Chain . . . they understood bass guitar

Matt Taylor.. Very underrated Talent..

Matt rocks. I also loved the back up band he had at the Mosman Park Hotel in Perth The Sneakers. Ah 1985 owned...

I used to go down the Shents and listen to Matt Taylor with Dave Hole. Awesome.

Absolutely awesome!!! I remember when I was young too - when they first released this song!!! :)

Listen how good Barry Sullivan on bass is so solid .one of the best players

I had never herd of these guys until I went to the Hacienda Hotel in Ferntree Gully in the early eighties and wow did they blow my socks off. To this day, the best pub gig I have ever experienced.

Went and saw them last Saturday night at Eumundi, still pumping out the good music 30years on - awesome!

Fabulous..saw chain a few month's ago..sounding great..with an added sense of humour..you are legends!

My son loved this song when he was 14 years old . He is now 29 years old . This song is amazing .

One day, I was waiting for some friends at the Principal Bar and Restaurant in Midland, WA. I bought a beer and went out side to to drink it. I was sitting at a table and I noticed this bloke sitting at another table who looked very familiar, but I couldn't put a name to the face. Like me, he was by himself, rolling his own and drinking a few beers. I have worked on about 35 remote mine sites in my working life, so I assumed he was someone I had worked with. So, as I do in these situations, I began to go through all of the sites in my head, hoping to make a connection, but I kept coming up with a blank. Finally, this bloke got up and left, walking past me and out to onto Cale Street. When he was out of sight, it suddenly hit me - that was Matt Taylor! Like Matt, I too remember when I was young. Had my memory been better, I might have been able to have a beer with a muso I've admired since Moses played at full back for the Jews. Sorry Matt, I think I owe you a beer, mate!

aussie rocknblues,cannot be beaten!, when music was music!!!

Still getting it right after all these years. Great bloke, raconteur...pretty average cricketer. Love ya', mate. And Phil Manning? Don't get me started. My band did supports for them in the early eighties - great musos, fantastic blokes.

I was there standing in the wings. A brilliant concert and the 'Super Group' that got together as the encore....... WOW

Remember seeing chai n at the driftwood room in Frankston in the early 70s great night's!!!!!!

Masterpiece, masterpiece!

Chain, Aztecs, Meteors, and Daddy Cool at the Catcher in Melb! “I remember when I was young”

Aussie bands are THE BEST!!!

Damm I miss Australia !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guarantee that STATUS QUO would love this boogie. This is in my Top list of all time. Reminds me of SUNBURY '73

I saw these fellas live a couple of times many years ago ... they were sensational !!! ❤♥

Phil Manning magic on that Tele. Shot at Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Melbourne.

FANTASTIC SONG MAKES YA WANT TO DANCE ...

Did the 2 people that thumbs downed this just hit the wrong button.? Classic.

Phil Manning ! What a legendary guitarist!!!

I remember when I was young, too. I was trying to pass maths, pluck fish out of rivers and convince visiting Americans that the black kitten sleeping on our lounge floor was a baby Australian panther. I certainly wasn't writing or performing anything amazing like this! Jeez they could do music back then. Ah, what do I know. I thought it was a panther too!

TAKES ME BACK.......''

Love Love this.. the good old days Matt Taylor your a legend

I remember when I was young, Fell in love, Never recovered, Never did that again.

we have certainly had some of the best music around, chain, billy Thorpe, ac/dc, easybeats, dingos, spectrum, the list goes on...... then w have the kiwis we claimed, max merritt and meteors, dragon, split enz/crowded house. spoilt for choice

ANOTHER GREAT SONG/BAND THAT PLANTED ME IN TO BLUES MUSIC .LONG LIVE BLUES TRADITION / MUSIC OOOOH, YEAH!!!!

I remember when I was young this was on 3XY 😊, the 70s full of fun n treachery!

What a great band Chain was!! Never missed a gig they did in Sydney back in the day.

Don't forget to see Chain when they are around next. Phil Mannings website lists all the latest gig information (Chain's gigs are listed below Phil's solo gigs on his Tour page).

More Classic Aussie Rock......Some Excellent Bass Playing going on here as well, Great Performance by all......

Aww yeah. Shouts to Matt, and JOEL!

I first heard this song when I was 14, love it so much!

Are the great Aussie band songs they were great days

Great song I now appreciate given age.

Myer music bowl, Melbourne. Many a great band played there.

Matt Taylor, Phil Manning & Chain performing a great Australian classic, Matt playing his Schecter Stratocaster and Phil his Schecter Telecaster both guitars custom built for them in Australia by RAM Music Imports Sth Yarra.....Enjoy

Remembering now

I was at this concert. With a bottle of Bundy tipped into a 2 litre bottle of TAB diet cola. You couldn't find a bottle of Coke anywhere in Melbourne before the show 😂

Shan, you Dad "Big Goose" was a Legend, one of Australia's Great bass players. RIP Barry Sullivan

Flippin' awesome !!!!

i was there...what an incredible 2 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remember when I was young at Devonport High School and Phil Manning played us a motivational visit during assembly (he being a former student), one day...say about '74-'75 (".)

Supersational Band, Best Music, Still Rocking ❤🧡💚💜💙🎼🎶🎵🎸🎸🎸

Here they are 41 years ago, at Mushroom Records concert, today Mushroom are celebrating 50 year and they don"t want to know them, for shame Mushroom

matt you rocked me last time I seen you in bris . it was that old church in the valley ...... many years ago .....

the great Phil Manning on guitar, one of Australia's best.

Matt Taylor sings the blues like they should from the guts, howling wolf

I was at this gig too, both days. At the time, I wasn't as interested in the 'old hippy stuff' like Chain, being at that time more into the New Wave groups who were mostly on the first day. It was only later that I've come to appreciate how great some of the early 70s Aussie bands were. So in retrospect, I'm glad to able to say, 'yeah, I was there, I saw this'.

Greastest of all Aussie blues!

Better than tops. Thanks matey.

Amazing band! One of the best ever.

Chain just played Byron Bay East Coast Festival 2022. First time without Matt Taylor as he couldn't get there and back home due to Covid. I wasn't there but apparently it went well with fill ins. x

Every single second I am younger than the next second following! great song!

SHIT, I remembered those good AUSSIE bands from the early 70s. CHAIN, spectrum , blackfeather , la de das, sherbet , master apprentice, music express , zoot , Billy Thorpe, fraternity ( with bon Scott as frontman , haha. )

I was very young 17years old when I 1st heard this song & Chain . Gavin Walsh Australia xxx

saw these guys at the Fitzroy Windsor nsw 20 or so years ago, 1 of the best nites ever""""""""""""""""""""

I remember when I was young and still play great OZ blues at 68.❤❤❤❤

awesome!!! ty for sharing this really cool song!! brings bk great memories..remembering when I was young.

Wow, I would like a time machine to go back to the happy days, I was very fortunate to have Phil Sign my Phil Manning Custom Stereo Maton Guitar Number 13, Who said 13 was unlucky! Phil signed it at the Piping Hot Chicken Shop is in Ocean Grove this year, and still kicks ass it was an awesome night!

Shannon...My great mate. I used to be your live-in babysitter with you and your Mum in Moorabin. You were only 5 and I took you to see ACDC. Wow! I still live in California. Write back, Heather

What things combined at this period to make such great music? I can´t think of a period that produced anything nearly as good as this sort of stuff. I not only refer to Oz but internationally too.BIG Thx for the upload.Here´s hoping the "right" combination returns again someday

You’re the best at this! I feel like I’m at Van Halen live when watching you brotha.

Thank mate for the harp✌️🎤

I was there...both day's. Chain were fantastic.

Chain,was Awesome!!!!

Love this song it takes me to when I lived in Whyalla SA and Bunbury WA and hung out with so many great people , especially Justine McGuire

Awesome, thank you
