Dude! I still have the original tracks that were recorded on Goliad that Eric gave me. I had them remastered by Rob N Sh¡t “Robs Chop Shop” now.

Loved Ray Charles’ cover!

Phenomenal!

Still listening. Red Young does a cover version which is also good. I’ve been listening since this first came out. Great tune!

Had this album from it’s first release back in the day. Never saw this video until now! WHEW!!!

GODDAMMIT!!!!!

1970 The Cave, a student club in Heidelberg, Germany - it was the most popular song for dancing, plotting and change....It changed my live and my outlook. We did try to make it real...compared to what? Rest in Peace Les.

so cool, the whole band flying

_Thank you for uploading!!_

KAMALA HARRIS VS TRUMP!! COMPARED TOO WHAT??!!😂😂❤❤

VA Thomases strengths VS Clarences

Love the song and have listened to it for decades, but I still can't stomach Les using the G d in the lyrics. 😢

1969 was a big year in my life. Long time ago now, but the music lives on.

nane the wiser

Sweet creator and Jesus this is still so relevant today as it was mid 60's. The lyrics alone say it all, so listen up honkies! Save the god damn planet or else!!?? How long does it have to take for people to open their god damn ears and get with the program??? And to all the idiots who want that fascist Chump in our people's house, not a f'n chance, no way, no how. Destroyer of planets that one. Greed and money, call girls and adultery, that;s what you want in a leader? JFC! Rock n roll, jazz and blues, soul and hip-hop united to STOP all this bullsit once and for all. Come on kamala, sock it to us baby, get on the good foot darling, lets save our beautiful Earth before it's to late.

CONQUERING OUR NEST Black Man full of Life ABC and our families of strifes

Tremendous song!

I love this song, always have.

When I heard this song in 1970 my life was changed. Musically, working without a net.

Shame on you. You left off Benny Bailey.

Hard to compare this Live Jazz tune with any other! The magnificence of this is just stupendous! Thank You guys!

Mom loved this song when I was a kid ❤

For fifty years.

IT WILL NEVER EVER GET OLD!!

The first Time I will Always WOW Like THIS One 💯💯💯💯

He seems to briefly quote from "Age of Aquarius" near the beginning.

I used to play it

No comparison with anyone.

Enjoying it? I’ve been around since this album came out. This is one kick-ass protest song, we could use more than a few of them today! Makin’ it real is. today’s “woke.” The pathetic thing is that not much has changed! Nope, we’re still runnin’ in mud!

Who’s enjoying this song in 2024?

Used in the movie Casino when deniro "ace" is talking about all the casino men watching each other

Il ne faudrait jamais oublier ces grands messieurs du jazz

Harris new to this craziness ?

Party music at I.U. in the '70's. Got down, sometimes too much.

This Les Mcann set put Montreux on the map.

Never knew there was a video. In 69 and 70 you'd hear it on the radio - underground stations, pirates flaring up and closing down every few days, rockers, jazz stations pretending to be underground even if they weren't. America as it was being lived was being brushed aside for an America you could fabricate and feed to readers, viewers. The anger we get in this clip was always real enough - all that smirking because McCann was crossing lines, and Benny Bailey is absolutely hilarious (he said in an interview once that he actually hated this kind of music, so who knew he was having such fun?) - but it's validated by a media that told itself "well, somebody has to do it" - so Tonto and the Lone Ranger (Media and the Ivy League) - saddled up and brought us right to marxism, Joe Biden, and the Democrat's looting of the American Promise. When you're 18 though, this music goes through you like a blast of dynamite.
