    Mike Harrison has one of the greatest voices in rock music!

    WOW ! THIS IS GREAT ! Their 1969 lp 'Spooky Two' is genuine classic .....still stands up to this day. Superb writing, singing and production. I remember wishing their label would have promoted them better, t6hey should have been much bigger in the States. This song, Waiting for The Wind, is a gem and this performance sounds like they never aged.....

    Born in "51", this music guided me through the early days and nights of College in the North of Wisconsin 70,71,72 and 73. Underground FM ruled the airwaves....long live us all.

    This is evergreen!! The sound is amazingly intact. Gary Wright has aged remarkably well!

    His voice is still perfect, so perfect. I was singing Feelin' Bad all day to day and resisted listening to it until I could sing more than one verse. Of course I had to listen to Waitin' for the Wind, I cannot hear one song off of Spooky Two without going in for the whole thing. Those five drum notes and my heart soars, Waitin', you bet!

    SPOOKY TOOTH REALLY STATED THE EMOTIONAL OUTBIRSTS OF THE YOUNGER GENERATION....IN THE 60S.....LIKE NO OTHER GROUP.....AND I MUST SAY....THAT HEARING THEIR MUSIK.....THESE DAYS....PUTS ME BACK IN THE 60S GENERATION.....LIKE NO OTHER.....

    Sadly underrated group back in the day. Amazing reunion-voices still intact and great instrumental chops-I would have love to have been in Hamburg that day..

  • @gotopcat
    @gotopcat Před 16 lety +11

    These guys are about as good as they come; 1970's to 2008...It's special to hear them again through this medium. Mr. Harrison, Mr. Wright, and Mr. Kellie, I hope you keep up the fine work!

  • @defpixel
    @defpixel Před 16 lety +5

    I remember these guys when I was in Highschool back in the late 60s. A comment was made earlier about this type of music and today's so called "classic rock". I couldn't agree more. Bands like this were so far "above" mainstream music,even for when they were really popular. For someone my age (55), it does my heart good to see that they still have what it takes to deliver the goods.

    Wow! Surprised how good they still sound...remember we are talking about 60+ year old blokes! If you didn't see Mike Harrison, you would think his voice is still that of someone in their prime!

  • @jonfish1000
    @jonfish1000 Před 13 lety +1

    I found this song on a live recording ( last track on 'Mike Harrison meets the Hamburg Blues Band' CD ). Apparently, audio engineers from Singapore to Auckland in NZ and cities in Australia, play this track when demonstrating up-market audio equipment, e.g. speaker values in region of NZ$20,000. The song is a classic, the dynamics are incredible, and it is possibly the finest live band recording - - much better than the original studio version.
