RIP Lolly. You made a lot of people proud.

Even with having suffered a stroke this great man's mind is sharp as a tack! What a great gift he was to us all.

I met Lolly in 1978. We became fast friends. He hosted my bachelor party at his home in 1981 and honored us by singing "Come and Get Your Love" at our wedding! He was a warm, funny, talented and loyal friend.

The reporter, Christy Martínez, did an excellent job filming and interviewing Lolly Vegas, his family, and friends at Lolly's house.

One of a kind rock band from the '70s. The "Come and Get Your Love" song is a timeless song, a true classic. May Lolly Vega rest in peace, and God, Jehovah, bless him.

I graduated from high school in 1974. What a gift he gave to all of us.

I'm wounded but not slain. That's courage I admire.

August 21, 2023...your the best REDBONE. Come and get your love is such a beautiful song LOVE YOU LOLLY..RIP WITH OUR LORD SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST ❤

The best thing about 60's-70's Rock is that just about every bit of it is still great over 50 years later.

The Vegas family is awesome live on brother

Love you FOREVER Lolly ❤️

Its 2021 here in Italy, l Love Lolly Vegas . Best wishes 🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹

If the Vegas family sees this message, I want you to know that Come and Get Your Love was my favorite song in 1974. That song just hit me! Hands-down nothing was close. He created a masterpiece and I so appreciated it. You all should be so proud of his accomplishment where he had a # 5 song in 1974 with a ton of airplay in Boston and around the USA. I will never forget it. As a matter of fact, I was going to exercise today and the song came on the radio so I waited till the song was over before I shut the car off. Just like back in 1974. Rest In Peace and thank you Lolly Vegas!

What a handsome man. I'm in love with him.

What a nice guy Lolly was, he was so kind to this interviewer in spite of her inexperience.

I have been doing a lot of research, and watching every video and reading every interview and watching every interview from people who knew Lolly, who were members of the band, family members, and anyone who happened to come in contact with him. I have not heard one person who has ever said anything negative about Lolly Vegas. Everyone who ever met him, came in contact with him, or knew him, loved him and talked about what a wonderful and sweet and loyal person that he was. In spite of all his Fame and popularity, Lolly was married to the same woman for 46 years! That should tell you something about this man. He also attended Dr Reverend Della Reese's Church in Los Angeles, and was a member as he put it "of her flock". He spent his last few years on this Earth helping people whenever and wherever he could.

RIP Lolly Vegas! Your legacy will live on forever!

Lolly Vegas is one of my favorite rock musicians of all time. I’m not even sure why, but I just really like the guy Spirit and his strength.

I still love that song , still play it everyday while camping in the in Quachita mountains.thank u brother , Respect ""

Great songs come and get your love 💘❤

2023 and i still love Lolly and Pat Vegas. The most gorgeous men ever.

I had the hugest crush on Lolly. I still play their music. My 3 year old Granddaughters favorite dance song is "come And Get Your Love". Lolly is missed. I am so thankful my teen years were the 70's. Truly legends 💕

Lolly Vegas was talent extraordinairre, an unmatched voice that cut to the soul, and a genius song writer. His spirit lives on......top great man!

My heart is broken....didn't know he had passed....I have been in love with him since forever !!!!

god bless you red brother from a black brother. rest in peace (tears in my eyes) rest in peace warrior,lolly. may the most high be pleased with you.

I. Loved. Come. And. Get. Ur. Love. The signature. Native American. Percussion. Background. Sound. Was. A self. Fulfilling. Prophecy. Indeed. Redbone. Blew. Me. Away. Big-time. Just. The. Greatest. Sound. I. Still. Can't. Believe. This. Melody❤🌈☘️

Love the Native Indian culture. Beautiful family🌷 My great-great grandmother full blooded Cherokee Indian. We have her picture dressed in Beautiful Indian Attire.

RIP Lolly, one of the best guitarists of the 60's and 70's. Hendrix said Lolly was one of his favorite players. That is bonafides!!! I loved the Creole influence he brought, Redbone could get thick and swampy!!

You Came And Got My Love. Thank You So Much

Hi Lolly - It’s October 1, 2021and I still watch your videos of “Come & Get Your Love” from 1974 - Love it!! You have an awesome voice and stage presence - Love to hear and watch you all sing - Love your voice! Congratulations for your success! You deserve the best life has to offer ♥️

RIP Lolly Vegas

What a bunch of judgemental people. She did fine. And at least she took the time to use her resources and go and interview the man.That alone shows her interest. I don't think any of you people judging her did that. Good job Christina Martinez! And Raza Hookups And Baddest Oldies! And thank you. You brought to light things I never knew about this group that I love.

This man was a pioneer in writing catchy tunes, deeper contemplative songs with important societal messages, and complex improvisational pieces. I first heard Redbone from my brother's album collection in 1970 when I was eleven years old. I am so blessed to have experienced this man's work, and I am forever touched by his creativity. God Bless Lolly Vegas and Redbone.

Lolly Vegas.. Thanks for all.. one of a kind.. No goodbyes.. just a farewell..

You watch their performance on Midnight Special, when Lolly was this magnificently fine young man, and then this -- it blows your mind to think how time and disability seem to have altered him so completely, but then towards the end when he is standing up with Joe, he flashes that big smile and you see he is the same person inside. Don't waste time, young 'uns. Even the greatest possible talent and beauty are not yours forever. Though I agree the interview is poorly done, the part where his nieces and nephews flood in at the end is priceless. You can tell how much they love him and that is pretty cool.

My band shared the stage with Lolly at the Hollywood Palladium in 1967. His band came on before us and they kicked ass. Did a couple of R&B tracks. All were impressed.

What a great singer/songwriter.

I sing Come And Get Your Love to myself all the time at work and around the house and have loved it every since the first time I heard it. Those were some great guys and created some great timeless music. They are missed.

Such a beautiful family. Family first for this group...you can see it and how connected they all are. Lovely.

I appreciate that Christina spent time with this class act. Anytime filmed means we can still have a part of him.

Poor baby. He doesn't look very good here. Like the color has drained for him. My Mom had a huge crush on him, back in the day. Must've been fighting the cancer, even 4 years before he died. So sad to know he passed. Thank you for sharing your talent and music with us. Blessings to your family.

In 1974, I was the Video Tape Engineer at the (then) WKID-TV-51 in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. when one day, these guys just showed up in the studio and they were there to do a lip-sync to this (their hit song at the time) and no one was there to run cameras. I put on a video tape, set it to record and let it roll... then went out into the large Studio B to operate a camera, where these guys were dressed (as shown) and they proceeded to lip-sync to the song for a video for later airing. They were truly very funny and a joy to work with. They lip-synced but actually verbalized OTHER words to it, and it was hilariously funny. We had to do a few takes to get it right. I even have some photos I took that day but they are on slides. I clearly remember the feathers they then had hanging from the neck of their guitars. If you were in your 20's then... you would remember this group for sure...

Great band and a very beautiful family.

I didn't even know this interview existed. I'm young, only 38. Definitely appreciate the graces of Redbone music. Plus my mom got me into back when I was a real youngster. So many thanks here. ✌️👍

Love that song, "Come and get your love." RIP.

This artist will be always in my heart... he set the pace for acceptance of diversity back in the old days... I love him!

My respect for Lolly Vegas and Redbone has never diminished. Living in LA during the '60, I heard Pat & Lolly many times, before Redbone was born. I could not agree more with Joe A., that the interviewer was ill-prepared, unprofessional, having little talent for the process, lacking sufficient background to properly do honor to the subject.

May you rest in peace, you and your group was the best, may you sing with our ancestors !! Megwich

Thank you Mr. Lolly & Patrick Vegas for this awesome music. I'm going on a treasure hunt to find all your albums to add to my collection.

Lolly and Redbone - the best. Nothing comes close to the niche you guys carved in rock music. Wish musicians today had the same talent. Rock on.

awesome interview. huge fan of redbone. big fan of Custer Had It Coming.

I'm one sixteenth native love these guys . I thought he was so handsome . Finly a native American role model.

I just love all their songs, especially Come and Get Your Love. Loll y was so handsome and a great guitarist. RIP Lolly

we loved your music thank you rest in peace brother

It is tragic that Guardians of the Galaxy would use the song after Lolly died and he would not have enjoyed all that renewed fame. Thanks so much Redbone!

I loved the end of the interview when family members came in. Very real and sweet! 💕

13:30 I am wounded, but not slain - Lolly Vegas

Loved Redbone...Lolly was Brilliant singer, songwriter, guitarist... I am happy to have found this. Sorry to learn he had passed. RIP You brought me such happiness! Gorgeous man too!

Lolly was a great talent and contributed to the heart of music....in a big way....future generations will never understand the beauty he gave to music. Thanks for all you gave.

Just bumped into this video and very say that this native passed away. Loved their hit song and heard it a dozen times. "Come and get your love" forever man. a classic that will last forever. RIP

Redbone are part of the fabric that is me, that is my life. Thank you so much for that. RIP somewhere over the rainbow.

Redbone was essential to a most wonderful time in American music- we had top 40 hits in any language or cultural influence- we even had gospel hits with the Staple Singers and the Edwin Hawkins Singers. Eres Tu was a hit in America sang entirely in Spanish. When I heard Redbone's "Chant the 13th Hour" I was enthralled- their debut album was among the greatest ever written and recorded.

Amazing talent...rest in peace,Lolly.

I wish I would of known you, so talented RIP

Thanks for capturing these moments for us.

Redbone was so much more. Before redbone you were hollywood The number one on sunset strip. So much more than the world knows. I love and appreciate your contribution to the music I love so much . No more like you

OMG HE LOOKS LIKE MY DAD ... MAY THEY BOTH REST IN PARADISE I LOVE YOU DAD.

'SLIT A NUN'S THROAT 4 A BURRITO' I LOVE IT & KNOW EXACTLY HOW THAT FEELS!!!

Redbone-come and get your love is my favorite song of all time. And I’ve listened to a lot of music. I’ve decided out of all the stuff I’ve listened to, this is my favorite song ever.

Thank you for great music.

Born & raised SF... 1950's. SANTANA & many music artists like Redbone gave foundation. Music is DOPAMINE & and I'm no spring 🐣🐥🐤. Ty kindly

In Ireland we were introduced to Redbone when Witch Queen of New Orleans was released. That was in late 71. Loved that song.

This was very nice to see. It is as if I was there taking it in. Enjoy every day folks Thank you for making so much great music

Wow they wrote for some top names, I'm glad to find this interview the history is priceless!

ONE OF THE GREATEST BANDS EVER!!! LOVE YOU !!! come to miami

Lolly . I hope you are now roaming the Great Plains and Deserts of the Spirit world with your ancestors . The songs you wrote will live on in this world until th End of Days. when all will become clear .

You are still so fine looking I love all of your music specially come and get your love your hair is like Silk in that song

Great laid back , informal interview. Grew up with Redbone music here in the UK, fantastic times...

Great song!... and great job because of a great band with a fantastic leader.

Lolly was such a great talent and an inspiration to me. A void that will never be filled.

Redbone !great band, thanks so much for being a part of my life back then !

I love Christina's interview with Lolly; she is guileless and it makes it so much the better; it's nice to see Lolly so at ease and so kind, and it gives him a chance to talk about his career and the memories of the strip, etc. and plus we get to see him tease her over asking if the portrait of the chief is a relative of his oxoxoxo we get to see Acela come in w/ Pat's kids when they were younger; it's adorable to me. Love Lolly's smile!

I remember them. Was standing outside listening to them, didn't have tickets but still listened to them.

may you RIP redbone forever

I was looking for a interview of Lolly in his later years. This is wonderful, thank you so much for sharing. I hope he is smiling down on us today. Rest In Peace ✌🏼😇

how sad, she had no idea what she had in her hands! the patronizing "okays" are a testament. from 1974 on, i wanted to marry him. all the other girls liked pat's pants, but i knew lolly had all the best parts.

What a great interview!. I've always loved this band. Lolly seemed like such a nice guy.

Legend. ❤️ . I listen to Redbone when I was a teenager. Massive influence on my playing. So funky . I’m Sure the Chili peppers and many others were influenced as well.

I could listen to him for hours!!!!!!!! Wonderful story’s !!!!

He was so fine, I didn't know he died. Looks like he had a stroke. RIP luv you. ❤💚💛💜💟

I was so Lucky to see Redbone in concert in Rotterdam in 1971 , the best concert in the 1000 concerts i saw!!!

I don't care what anybody says but this was and still is the jam that will get anybody start to dance and it is a must to hear at any kick back best song of all time it's one of the top five of all time even with the 80,90's music and of today and to top it off native bros ,and a fellow artist in more ways than one

Thank you for having the insight to interview and document this Native American group. I am sure that they met with much predjudice. They were told to change their names because of this. But there tenacity and talent shown on like diamonds!!🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇

I LOVE Redbone! This was my JAM. Everytime I heard this song my behind would dance with a big smile on my face.

Great band....I discovered Redbone in the early 70s. Loved them ever since.

National treasure.

This was a really neat interview. It’s laid back and really great interaction.🦋💜

Thanks for the interview... Very informative.... Maybe not professional and maybe not supposed to be... What matters most is its digital and online for all to reference and enjoy... There is no shame here, but certainly would have been a shame if this person had not taken the initiative and held an interview... Thanks

I never get tired of listening to Redbone, they make me proud. Love you always

I've always enjoyed your music and I'm also a Native American I am an Aztec I don't like to be called Indian I'm not from India and I also love burritos
