Video

Wow, that was terrific, thank you so much for sharing that! You are the man.

Great video recap and how it got started. I can relate to the song lyrics as I had a 9th grade English teacher that said we are going to spend the next few weeks studying poetry - the class all groaned. Then she said the poetry would be song lyrics. The first song was a Beatles song. That was the first time I connected music and song lyrics to poetry. That approach made learning fun. I’m glad you are able to share all the knowledge you have learned over the years about the songs and artists. Congratulations on the 1 million subscribers.

Adam, you are awesome!

Fantastic episode. Thanks for all you do for us, Professor!

Great insight as to the origins of how Adam became the Professor of Rock. Thanks for sharing your story. Too bad that teacher wasn’t forward thinking enough to see that todays emphasis is finding ways to make useless information useful. Thats why the stars enjoy being interviewed by you Adam. Your channel is always a pleasure to watch and it’s why you now have 1 million subscribers. Congrats!

Great episode Adam and congratulations on hitting a million

Congrats! Excellent video--perfect for this milestone! ❤

Ah ha !!! I finally got a glimpse of what you look like without that hat 😄.. Congrats for reaching that 1 million milestone, you deserved it..

Cinderella Rockefeller by Esther & Abi Ofarim was actually the worst song ever. What made it even worse was it was an earworm. Catchy even though you hated it - you would hear it popping up in your head all the time ! It should have come with a health warning ! Yoko yes terrible but you can't count much of Yoko's stuff as music . Though I did give ''Who Can See The Wind" a couple of spins...😂

Love ya dude! I’m so proud of you!

Thank You. Long live Rock and You!

Congratulations, Adam!! Very well deserved indeed, this video is incredible! It's so cool to see the awesome amount of respect you have earned in the music community, thank you for sharing this with us all!! You are an absolute treasure, and an inspiration for those of us that would dare to chase our dreams, to reach out to our heroes (like this), and to live such an authentic life of passion and service. YOU rock. Thank you for so much great content, looking forward to the future of your channel and career.

It was phenomenal…

Ann I took the song as the woman who otherwise had all she wants and needs with the Man she still is so in love with, but she never been able fill her longing to have a baby. He husband is unable to give her a child. As she's riding along with this soaking wet hitchhiker she thinks to herself, ya know he's kinda cute and his are like fire blue. If I was Abby to have a child wouldn't it be awesome to have eye like his? If you let your mind wander on that long enough could easily end up in a room as they did . There's still a certain amount of human nature there. It didn't seem as though she was out for that purpose at the time just ended up happening that way. Whether or not it was right or wrong isn't the point but now she has the child she'd always long for. If I've completely misinterpreted your song I'm sorry. It was purely unintentional. But that's what I got out of your song. Something good can come out of life even if we didn't exactly do it the way we were supposed to be . 😅 We have to receive a plastic I was situation that wasn't ideal to begin with even when we mess up that doesn't mean we need to hold it against ourselves for simple infraction in the past today's a new day so choose to do good for this day for open Thank you for your fine work on the song it means a lot to me.

Nancy Gets Complimented For Her Good Looks~ But ANN Is F'ing HOTT!❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Hey Adam! Great video! So cool to see how it all started for you. I too grew up in a small Idaho town. It’s amazing that you have gotten to meet so many of the people we grew up listening to! Congrats on a million subscribers!😊 Thanks for the amazing interviews.

Love this video .. EWF is one of my top2-3 favorite bands, and you honored them very well Adam...great song choices also

Phenomenal episode professor. Keep up the fantastic work.

Three Dog Night was the first album I ever purchased.

This was pretty damn cool. I wish more channels would do this. Congrats on the 1 million subs.

I love that ! Your so awesome !

That opening riff is very similar to Canned Heat's version of 'On The Road Again'.

So glad you have such nice video with your parents and grandparents, friends, etc it was a nice cheesy video, loved it. Congratulations again on a million subs. Small town life was great, I grew up in a very small town and lived rural out of town, I would sneak off and get a whooping for not telling anyone I was going somewhere. By the time I was 10 I was working all over for farmers, by 14 I was climbing on things to fix the roof or antennae. Led to traveling places for work by 16 I would never have seen otherwise and I got to listen to the radio or music all day long. I got to travel to other countries to work on copper roofs and high steep roofs, but it gave me a chance to see concerts I would never have seen. You made music history your life, music can bring so many people together, you have a great skill. I hope you soon break 2 million subs.

Discovered this channel about three months ago. Was shocked by how good of a channel this was. Have seen at least 50 or so videos so far and this video quadrupled my respect for Adam. Loved seeing these legends giving him accolades. Well deserved! And that old teacher who said you wouldn’t matter to much is probably eating his own hat now.

I have this song on my playlist ✌️

I like Sweet. Little Willy was the first song of theirs I heard and that was on a jukebox in Missouri.

First time viewer for this channel and must say a good interview. I really love the fact Norman said the song was given to him with the unique rift from the Spirit and how it touched him. You know the song started a fire in the souls of so many with it's magic and to Believe in "it" "something" God,, and that spirit is still touching people like myself when hearing Norman talk about that magic at work.

It is a broken speaker and you can do this with a broken speaker and a EQ. I mean I did it back in the 70's and 80's man come on

1,000,000: Epic, Legendary, Timeless - The Professor has gone Platinum. Nice to see the rest of the Reader Clan, and thank you for sharing your relationship with your father.

Thumb up... but, I LOVED this video. Laughs and a lump in the throat, lightning blinks to dry the eyes. Keep doing YOU! ❤

"Pink Floyd without Wright, is just wrong"

Thank you sir for such an enjoyable CZcams channel, I honestly look forward each day to your next video story, keep going professor.

Outstanding episode!

Every now and then I'll get on a disco kick and "Dancing Queen" is definitely getting played lol

Love this!

Dude, Beautiful and Amazing story!! Adam your story is TRULY AWESOME!! And CONGRATULATIONS on a MILLION Subscribers brother!! Keep up the good work!! Blessings Brother Man!

Congrats on 1 million. I have been into music all my life, including playing multiple instruments. I am very passionate about my music but, when I watch your videos, it always amazes me how passionate and excited you are to tell us these stories. I even watch the ones from bands that I’m not in to or ever cared that much about just to see a different side of those bands. I actually started liking some of these bands because of the way you tell their stories. Thanks Adam for opening up my eyes on some great music that I would have normally passed over.

I need to know, Professor; who are the biggest, greatest musical entertainers who have eluded you for an interview,for whatever reason ?

Congrats! Just goes to show how a person’s passion and hard work can work in harmony for all music lovers in the world. Encore!

I remember seeing his first album at RadioShack, A&B and others in BC, but other than Runaway, which I thought was alright, I didn’t give him much thought. That changed when my brother bought Slippery When Wet.

My favorite song is "See You in Everyone" ❤❤❤❤

Professor of Rock 👓 should be nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, there. Let's start the nomination

Thanks for making me young again and keeping me there everyday

Great episode Prof! Loved seeing you at home, the interviews with family (especially your dad), and the artists praising you that you don't usually show... You really are great. I appreciate you. Congrats on a million! Lets go for 2!!!

He was an outstanding artist and musician. Missing You for instance...Great post.

ABBA has so many not-so-known songs that are so great. Some of my favorites are; He is your Brother, Dance while the music still goes on, Why did it have to be me, Soldiers, If it wasn't for the nights, That's me, One Man one Woman, Tiger and so much more!

Congrats! Riding bikes to places take me back. I had a Mongoose and ride to 7-11 or heck all over Arlington Tx

That was a wonderful program, enjoyed seeing how you got started. It was wonderful seeing your father after hearing so much about how he influenced you as you were growing up. I believe most music nowadays has become boring and not all singers have good voices, too many use digital means to fill in what they can’t do naturally. Again great show.

Soon as I had seen this I had to listen to The Spirit In The Sky

Way to go Professor!!! 🎉
