I saw them at IU in Nov. 1970, I was at the front of the stage the whole time they played.
DRUMMER IS LEAD SINGER!!! SAW THEM LIVE IN 80'S.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🎹🎸🎤🎶🎵🎸🎹👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
The only other time I've seen that is "The Romantics" What I like About You video, you can watch it there.
Pete Riviera drummer and lead singer. Rare Earth could do R&B,Funk, rock Glad you liked this. Excellent reaction fellas. Much appreciated 🙏 ❤
I'm 66 and I never heard of this version either.
@@AtomicSquirrelHunterI'm 67... same here
Same here! 70 y.o.
@@jordimoore2167 I'm 72 never heard this version, I was really surprised.
Bands back in the late 60s early 70s could jam, don't know if today's bands could jam for 20 minutes and keep the groove
Phish
They definitely did great justice to this song, Rare Earth doesn't get enough credit. An interesting thought for you guys, Motown records made the rock n roll branch of the label because of these guys, so ive read numerous times
Yeah I remember the 45 being on rare earth records a division of Motown I read that a thousand times while I was playing the record!
First off, thank you for taking on the long version of this. Not many reactors will give a full album side track a listen. It's obvious that these guys had a lot of love and respect for Motown. Good stuff.
Best cover of a song. 🎵
Rare Earth was the only white band Motown ever signed. They could get psychedelic, and funky within the framework of one song! Very nice!
Nick and the Jaguars was the first white Band recorded by Motown. Rare Earth was the first with success.
One of my top five favorite songs of all time! Headphones, black lights, attitudinal adjustment. 24 minutes gone in a flash. Thanks for sharing.
Headphones - check. Black lights - um, LED? Attitude -- sativa ready!
How great was that version? Wow, they were so underrated, catch their live videos from the early to mid 70s and see along with hearing, how great they really were. Great jam.
Kickin it live is the way to go for me. Vibin and watching makes the experience timeless.!
That drummer can sang!
Most props to the drummer... Pete Hoorelbeke he was a monster. So much track, so much voice, so much funk.
Great tune. The live version is so amazing. The album cover was designed to look like a backpack and opened by flipping up the lid.
Welcome to 1960's/1970' when bands left it all on the stage.
No computers,studio electronic wizardry and fake crap.Just talent and groove.
HECK YEAH!!!
As a bass player for the past 50 years....that bass was the most! Josh Parrish on bass, locked in like a beast
Y'all were NOT ready for this, but I'm enjoying the reaction and I can see the appreciation on your faces🤗
This band was White and was on the Motown label. Motown knew what they were doing when they signed these guys. They could be funky and they could rock..
Wow, I always consider myself so lucky to have been a teenager in the 70's. Rare Earth was the 1st concert I went to.
Thanks for this one! This band didn't get the credit they deserved.
This is off of Rare Earth's debut album, and every song is a well-oiled and well-harmonized mix of Detroit soul, Rythem, and Blues.
Gil Bridges' saxophone solos are always the album's highlight, along with the soulful singing. They had a way of putting just a little
extra flare to the cover songs they recorded. This debut album is by far their best effort. Great commentary and input
on the vocals and musicianship, guys. No one can break down a song like Airplay Beats.
I don’t know…I loved their Ecology album as well
Another hit written by Smokey Robinson, which resulted in two hit records for the label: a U.S. No. 29 version by The Temptations in 1966, and a U.S. No. 4 version by Rare Earth in 1970.
Great song and reaction. The bass player was absolute 🔥🔥🔥. Haven’t heard thus version in over 40+ years.
Excellent choice . Love the older rock you've been reacting to. Haven't heard Rare Earth in ages ❤
The drummer's name is Peter Rivera. He is also the lead singer. He is still rocking these songs today. HELL YEAH!!
That snare drum sound Is 🔥. It's cracking!
The tonal quality of the drums can really make or break the way a song sounds. Most snare drums are kind of flat IMO. I love that fast, snappy sound!
That's called rim shots
. What a great bass line. Lead vocals fantastic. Sax amazing. Man, I LLOVED it! Motown with fantastic instrumental playing..and jamming. What’s not to love?
Wow. You did the album cut. Well, kudos to you guys.
This BAND had it going on for a few years. Rivera is one of the most underrated drummers in rock history. Nice job on the reaction, lads.
OUTSTANDING JOB! THANK YOU FOR PLAYING THIS. RARE EARTH IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS OF ALL TIME. GREAT MUSICIANS AND PETER RIVIERA SOULFUL VOCALS
Somebody knew what they were doing when they mic'ed that kit for the board, shit is gorgeous and warm and even has a bit of shimmer in that hi-hat in the central jam underneath all the guitarcrobatics - I wonder if the key is in the ambient parts of the recording - That and the tambourine are star players. Only the second time I've heard this version and the album is right in the basement
Shame on you!!! Play that vinyl. 😊 ❤
@@6916dog lmao I totally agree, I need a new slipmat for the turntable so I can use it
Love Rare Earth. Saw them in concert. On my feet the whole time.
I always thought this version was funkier then the Temps, grew up with this stuff
Peter is a friend of mine.
He still is this kind of singer
This is the best cover song of all time in my opinion !! Keep up the great work fellas !!
The live versions of Get Ready can run between 20 - 30 minutes. It never got boring. One f my favorite bands of all time. Great reaction.
Love love this song,I was 23 when it came out. Good times great music! Thanks for the reaction.
That was reminiscent of most of the concerts I saw in the 70's in which the rest of the band would take a break mid song and the drummer would do a solo when the rest of the band got a drink.
For more Psychedelic Rock please react to IRON BUTTERFLY - IN A GADDA DA VIDA - 1968 (ORIGINAL FULL VERSION)
Warning - acid trippy, shroomy, psychedelic flashing lights for those that have focal triggers
PARTY SONG WITH OTHERS ON REEL TO REEL TAPES!!!! LIVE CONCERT!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🎸🎹🎵🎶🎤
One of my favorites from the 70s!
That snare drum is iconic.
Always thought they had a Motown sound and vibe to them and if I’m not mistaken the drummer was their lead singer
Motown gave them their own label.... One of the few White bands signed by Motown.. Check out the Cover of Ray Charles What'd I Say.
No this is how I saw concerts.
This song is on my all time favorites playlist, along with "I Just Want to Celebrate" by them is also FIRE! I ALWAYS have to get up and dance when this comes on! 😂 Deep dive on them is well worth it. Their "California Jam" LIVE concert is so worth checking out!
Thank you both.
So smooth, but sooo energetic, Rare Earth gets down
Y'all probably already reacted to it, but I JUST WANNA CELEBRATE by Rare Earth is also a banger.
Hearing this on the juke box at the beach arcade in the summer as a kid the year it was released. God it was killer. Great time to be alive.
Those were the days my friends 🚻
I've never heard this live track before in my life I'm 64 years old! This is just outstanding! Glad I subscribe to your channel! Peace!
you are kidding....wowo
@@michaelbeerbados3291 I've heard the song 1,000 times but not the live track. Believe me!
not live
64 next week, never heard this version either! 👍
I think this record is superior over The Temps record....just my opinion obvi
Dennis Coffey was guitar 🎸 player was one of the bango bros is one best guitar players in the world this one that people know live the way to listening
Anyone who hates a proper jam session will hate this . This is FRICKING GOLD.
The drummer is also the lead singer. Very unusual, and hard to do. As a drummer myself, we know, it's way more difficult to sing as a drummer, than as a guitar, Bass, or even a keyboard player.
I admire the hell out of Phil Collins, Don Henley, this dude and other drummers who sing. I cannot imagine it.
Best cover of a song ever !!
Drummer Never misses a beat !
YES, THEY PLAY ALL INSTRUMENTS!!! TALENT!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤❤❤❤❤
They wanted to pay tribute & show absolute respect to the original,, they not only 100% achieved that,, but they were also even able to expand upon it.
I think I had only ever heard the single release (radio) version of this. '69 was an eventful year.
Took guts to follow the Temps.
Whoa! Taking us back to different times...
I think the base is really holding this whole thing together, you gotta really listen to it
High School bands we grooved to (70's): Rare Earth, War, Edgar Winter Group, Isley Brothers, Led Zepp, The Who.....
The 30 min. version from their live album is also a killer
AND...after just a few short rehearsals, they recorded this full version in ONE TAKE..!!
you need to do there I Know Im Losing You Live great song
These guys were awesome. The drummer is the lead singer. Funky!
Always loved this track. Rare Earth had a garage band sound that’s just so raw and fun. Good stuff!
This was a fantastic live band and growing up not far from Detroit we got to see them play many times. Got to meet the guys in the band 17 years ago when I took my wife and daughter to see them
The only way to describe the lead singer's voice, he has a superb, soulful quality that fits in any category of music!
I'm hearing "more" in the future!
Thing is,he still doin it,has a song chain reaction
Definitely one of the better covers you'll hear.
Great cover of the Temptations classic. The flip side Tobacco Road is another great song by Rare Earth!
Dennis Coffy was another White Motown group or artist!
I always have 20 minutes or so to enjoy this blast from the past...great one guys !
Wow!!! 🔥
This is LIVE! Can’t you tell? The whistles from the audience is proof.
I vaguely remember hearing about Rare Earth years ago but this is the first time actually hearing them unless I caught them on AM radio back then.
Was a group in my youth that was amazing. Never got the fame it should have. I . Dont remember this intro. Mostly on the radio during this era. More please
The lead singer is the drummer also, which is no easy feat.
There's another banger on this album called "Tobacco Road." Great reaction, as usual! 😊
Peter Rivera was the drummer and lead vocalist! Best!
My favorite male singing drummer of all time. I've been a Rare Earth fan from the first moment I heard them.
I just found your channel. You've got great taste. It's like you raided my teen record collection. Thank you!
I saw Rare Earth with Three Dog NIght back in the mid 80's. Arguably the best concert I ever saw that Rush wasn't playing at.
Saw them in 73’ and opening band was BB King . The guitarist for rare earth was extraordinary.
I saw them in '72 (?) with The Doobie Brothers as the opening band. Don't know how they managed to get so many great bands to take 2nd billing.
Old school friend and I , went to Pleasant Grove Elementary School in Lansing, MI ... Floyd Stokes Jr ... has been their drummer for 3 decades.
This recording was done where we were in Grade School .
This was the best version you could have picked to represent RE
No way! I didn't know that. (I went to Lewton & Elmhurst.) Thanks for great info! 😃👍
I wasn't expecting the long version! Awesome way to end the night.
Great band…Pete Rivera is badass!
Hard to beat rare earth when it comes to classic rock. Peace!
That's the first time I ever heard that intro part. Sounded pretty sweet like it was in concert.
Nice! When bands jammed at shows. This is late 60's early 70's style!
Battlefield Vietnam baby! Flying Hue gunship helicopters over the jungle in Nam - rockets and music blazing and blaring - Get ready fitted perfectly.
Get Ready, Here they come..
Most artists/groups want/do put on great shows,, but there were a certain few that truly went out of their way/above & beyond to not only put on a great show,, but also were very interactive with the audience to make SURE you truly had fun/enjoyed yourself,, like Rare Earth,, The J. Geils Band & Grand Funk Railroad.
I play in a band with this keyboard player right now. Man his stories about those years are insane. Of course we do a cover of this song.
WOW, the long version! 🤘🙌👍
This is the best and the definitive version of this song. It is just too good! I always get disappointed when I hear it come on the radio, cuz I know it's going to be the super short radio version.
Hello La & Che. Love your reactions and believe you need to listen to Loggins & Messina "Angry Eyes" its another long song but worth taking the time to hear it. I LIVE IN Detroit and
I played in a golf league with the brother of Rare Earths John Parrish AKA Persh. Also went to High School with the Marvelettes. I'm a lucky man. At 77 I still love my music.
This One SERIOUS Jam session!
They were Very popular back in the day. Saw them in a smaller venue in the 90s. Still got the crowd up on their feet & groovin. They always played lengthy instrumental in their songs. Killer organ!☮️ and each instrument showed up...🔥
Check out 'I know I'm Losing You'...ANY version👍🏼
Bought this LP about a zillion years ago. Still got it but man does it have some wear.
Such an underrated band! Saw them live in the ‘70s….wasn’t disappointed ❤
I’ve only heard the radio 45 version never this live full 20 minutes; loved it! A very cool rendition of the Temptations classic perhaps a bit too lengthy but not complaining 🥴
The band was on fire! Nice job as usual gentlemen ✌️😎
Can anyone be better than the Temps doing their own song? No. But these guys made their own version--a bit of rock injected, retaining the soul and respect for the Temps' original. I loved this when I was a kid (which, BTW, you could hear on the same station back then sandwiched between Cream "Sunshine of Your Love" and Dylan "Like a Rolling Stone", for example--the golden age of FM radio!) and holds up now.
It was the golden age before commercialization and over- categorization. My journey started in 1969, when my parents bought me an
AM/FM radio and I listened to the “cool”stations. Of course, we never knew it was the golden age at the time.
It sounded like them with a kick! I think alot of people were shocked back then.
