I dont even smoke weed but when I listen to this I smell it
If you love this song my friend, we are soul brothers
man did we party to canned heat boogie in the early 70's. boy was that the time to live as a teenager :).
One of the (if not THE) best harmonica performances ever.
I'm a disabled veteran at 60 yrs of age in Boyle Heights ELA ... My walking song always ... Classic 😎🇺🇸
"Don't Forget To Boogie" Even in a Wheelchair, our Singer Bob "The Bear" Hite had to perform in a Wheelchair after accident with Metal Doors.
Al Wilson was pure genius... musically, intelligence and as with most gifted people, introverted and socially awkward. Reminds me a lot of Sid of Pink Floyd. God puts these extraordinarily gifted people in front of us to enjoy for only a short time ... so enjoy their greatness.
A lot of people think they can play the harmonica, this guy really could.
I was born 1959 Houston Texas Mexican American I joined the US Navy at the age of 17 I served 6 years always out at sea and then on the road again I'm just glad that now approaching 61 years old I don't have to be on the road any more God is good to those that want to be good in their heart peace to every one!👍💪😎 Paul Garcia.
It's ironic that songs so full of sadness, pain and suffering give us such joy and happiness.
GONNA SIT RIGHT DOWN HERE AND SMOKE A JOINT AND REMEMBER HEARING THIS ON THE RADIO,, GOOD TIMES
once there was time, when we were so free in heart, mind and spirit, we could travel in any and all musical directions... no limits or boundaries of thought an creativity... this fabulous song encapsulates that Spirit
The long version. This is a masterpiece.
love this song. the drone is so hypnotic, along with the harmonica, they should have made it a 20m track, covering one side of the album. never get tired of this.
I didn't realize that Alan Wilson was a member of the "27" club. He died 2 weeks before Jimi and 4 weeks before Joplin. What a cool haunting voice he left us.
50 years since the Blind Owl left this world but his musical legacy has never left us.
I worked at a McDonalds in the San Fernando Valley in 1967-68 and they would come in (before they were famous) and eat burgers inside the enclosure where they ordered instead of eating outside at a table (no inside seating yet at McD's at that time)
They had a VW bus and had the cover of their first album taped in the window as an advertisement
Later I met one of them at AA meeting in West LA and Bear would sometimes sing at the Topanga Corral where I used to go before sobriety, but I was never there when he was
Great group and great sound
It´s my favorite Canned Heat song - followed by 'Going Up The Country'.
Thanks!
One of the greatest songs of all time. I want it played at my funeral!!
...YEH...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.....THANKS....GRACIES...CONGRATULATIONS...___________________________-THE...FINEST...SONG..OF...ALL..TIME...AND...TIMES...______THANKS..._______________________@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
I GET THE CHILLS every time I HERE THIS!!!! LOVE IT! REAL MUSIC REAL TIMES!!!!.
LYRICS:
Well, I'm so tired of crying
But I'm out on the road again
I'm on the road again
Well, I'm so tired of crying
But I'm out on the road again
I'm on the road again
I ain't got no woman
Just to call my special friend
You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
You know the first time I traveled
Out in the rain and snow
In the rain and snow
I didn't have no payroll
Not even no place to go
And my dear mother left me
When I was quite young
When I was quite young
And my dear mother left me
When I was quite young
When I was quite young
She said, "Lord, have mercy
On my wicked son."
Take a hint from me, mama
Please don't you cry no more
Don't you cry no more
Take a hint from me, mama
Please don't you cry no more
Don't you cry no more
'Cause it's soon one morning
Down the road I'm going
But I ain't going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
But I ain't going down
That long old lonesome road
All by myself
I can't carry you, baby
Gonna carry somebody else
Never forget walking into a mammoth, darkened cave-like bar in Boulder with friends in '68 after traveling from western PA to bring a bud who'd transferred to U of Colorado back east for Christmas break, and this Canned Heat classic was reverberating off the rock walls adding the mellowest touch to the coolest place i"d ever seen before or since.
This song is Alan Wilson at his best- a few years before madness planted its flag in Wilson`s great mind.
As Hooker said, Wilson was one of the great harp players-right there with Little Walter.The tembura-with its mysticism-was Alan`s idea.And the vocals-pure Skip James.
Hite, Vestine, Taylor and Fito were talented .But Wilson was in a class of his own-an example of Schopenhauer`s dictum: "Genius and madness are sure near allied-and thin is the partition that between them does divide."
J'écoute cette chanson depuis plus de 50 années et jamais, jamais, jamais je ne me lasse de l'écouter ! Je trouve même que plus le temps passe et plus mon plaisir est immense !!!
Thanks Haake for posting the whole song, the extended solo is oft left out. This version if you know nothing of Alan is the epitome of blues harp. Yes they had to double, triple etc. the harpsichord sound but the harp is so rich. And his vocals live on in commercials, on the radio an in our heads still to this day. The real deal!
You become Instantly Awesome when you hear this.
This song starts in your bones
ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGS OF ALL TIME, CLASSIC !
Story of my life, then and now over 50 years later and still kickin' it!
I was born 1959 Houston Texas Mexican American my older cousins exposed me to good music starting at the age of 10 I joined the US Navy at the age of 17 I was always on the road for 6 years nice beautiful song Paul Garcia👍💪😎
I love his harp playin and he was also a master with the bottlekneck!!!
this song haunts me everytime i heart it.
a masterpiece!
There are a lot of Best Ever songs.
And this is certainly one of them.
This song 'Defined' the 1960's...........I know, I was there and lived it!!!..................Local, So Cal guys!............I use to eat at Bobs, 'BIG BOY' and see "BIG BEAR", Bob Hite! there!............He picked up my tab one afternoon!..........They were Great!......RIP, Guys!!!
Boogie On B.W.
One of my favorite bands ever.
Best I've ever heard this. It's like sunlight sparkling on water.
Thanks
I have a vision of myself driving my Citroen down a desert road in New Mexico with the sun going down, a tumbleweed passing on the side, with this song playing full-blast.
My momma loved this song and so do I. Takes me back. Smoove.
When my friends and I first heard this back in the 60's we laughed because it was so different especially the vocals. It sounded like he was singing out of tune, like they picked somebody off the street to sing this song. It sounded great! I always picture a train engine when I hear the beginning and the end of the song, that drone sound. When I hear this tune now I'm amazed at how good it is.
Excellent falsetto and harp! Saw them in FL in 1968 I think. 😁 Missed them in Woodstock.
the voice is art of music..
ive always adored this intro ,,,what a very special voice this lovely guy as ,,,,This classic will live until eternity,,,, sadly we wont xxx the sound is so stunning xxlol
what a piece of sound recording man. hats off sir/madam.
blind owl always seemed to paint a visual that you could feel by floating in between the notes, while being hypnotically lulled by his voice
Again keep coming back to listen to this ! Every time gets better and better 👌
The Owl lives! He shall never die!
This is music. ❤️

Sipping an ice cold cane sugar 𝒞𝑜𝒸𝒶-𝒞𝑜𝓁𝒶 with tequila and lime; while *On The Road Again* is playing from an unlicensed Mexican radio station at a fuel stop convenience store, in a hot two road southern Arizona town in the middle of nowhere.
This song defines a generation.
J'ai toujours adoré et j'adore encore, indémodable, pure merveille !
What 1 helluva time to be alive. Canned heat Janis, Etta,Muddy, Johnny Winter, Joe Cocker...way too many to list. Mercy, mercy.
On the Road Again est une chanson du groupe de musique américain Canned Heat parue le 21 janvier 1968 sur leur second album Boogie with Canned Head puis en single le 24 avril 1968 aux États-Unis, avec Boogie Music en face B.
This tune is a wonderful drug.
My band n I used to play there music,back in the day.i played the drums n still do..I also play the hermonica to this as well love canned heat..listen to it still ..
If I were to be fortunate enough to get a radio job ever again, I would love to play this version, not the edited version, just like I did when I spent a couple of years at
KSHE-95
Adore this song!!
Oh the days, even saw them live at the Texas International Festival between Fort Worth and Dallas at a racetrack in Lewisville.
Blind Al was and is the best, his version of Skippy James vocal style is fantastic. Alan left to soon. This song is simple but like all great blues, works very very well.
Wow can Al Wilson ever blow that Blues Harp.... This just makes me want to take off and drive.
I could listen to their music all day and and it's the best music theme all this rap carp they have out, canned heat IS and will be the best.
Brilliant 👌 just amazing musicians 🎸😎
This tune is so way trippy. If you listen to this and it doesn't get your head straight, there is no hope for you.
Must one of the greatest blues harpists.
Had Permission from EMI as this is the OFFICIAL CANNED HEAT You Tube Channel - Don't Forget To Boogie
I will never forget
Goes great with a trip.
Don't ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever forget to boogie!

This is the Original Full Length L.P. Version from BOOGIE WITH CANNED HEAT - 1968

greetings to all my friends here
Read Fito's book. The Heat used to depend on Wilson to write HITS for them. And he never failed.
hermosa, eterna, sin igual para siempre
love this band always make me think of sterno.
Very nice piece. Different genres of music expresses parts of my personality. This one is more of a constant expression.
This sounds like driving a motorcycle at a high speed on a highway around the great plains
a song to ride on a powerful bike on a sunny day :D
