Nothing makes me happier than seeing our younger generations appreciating good music and doing it justice. As a 40 yr old music lover I would pay to see you guys before I'd take a free concert to half the so called "artists" out there today. You guys are awesome and this video made my day a little better.........rock on!!!!!!!!!!!
When wife and I met, she never listened to Rock or Classic rock. She grew to love it as much as me. We make several concerts a year. Styx and Lynyrd Skynyrd are her favorite
Tgis is awesome guys! Just popped up in my thumbnail and I'm always a glutton for a little Head East! That guitar player playing lead on the keyboard parts is spot on and sounds great! She's talented as all heck. Great cover young guns! So happy to see this that the younger generation understands how great these songs are! Thank you Collision Course
@@gonzovlogs2505 Keep playing those drums, though. I started on drums and made a living doing it for several years before switching to a couple of full-time gigs on the guitar, as well. I still love doing BOTH, equally. :)
As a fan of Head East and this song and an old fart lol You guys were great.I know this was 5 years ago but I hope all members are still playing!!!! WELL DONE!
Does my heart some good to check these kids out. There are an awful lot of comments on CZcams by kids denouncing today's music. Here are a few trying to keep the good stuff alive. Good going guys.
One of my favorite songs and also one of the top 2 covers of this song I've heard. Probably the best cover without a keyboard. The bass player was spot on also. Could've used more cowbell but I still rate it a+!!! Great job overall.
The band looks to be 10 or 13 if they play this good now soon be covered by someone on CZcams this is one damn good cover. My favorite is the drummer. The cowbell and drum rythym is right on cue.
My crew was chillin right here, watching this vid and we were all saying “bro needs more cow bell”.....then sure as shit drummer starts pounding that cow bell like a Schmidt’s beer! Oh hell yeah!!!!
This was fun. Pulled it off without a synthesizer too! Very impressive. Each had their own look and personality. Low slung bass player and everyone talented. That guitarist could really play and sing. Dude singing talented!
Fantastic job done by these young musicians. I've seen Head East back in the day when they played small night clubs and when there was the Iowa Jam. The vocals were split and had the cowbell, but didn't know how it would work without a keyboard, but the gal pulled it off!
I MOVED FROM COLORADO SPRINGS TO A TOWN IN NORTHWESTERN IOWA AND SAW UEAD EAST AND "VIXEN", ANOTHER BAND CIRCA 1972-78, AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE. I AM A RETIRED LOCATION SOUND BOOM OPERATOR NOW. AFTER SEEING HOW WELL THE ADULTS OF NOW CAN ROCK, I WILL NEVER WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING AGAIN. THANK YOU.
My band played this when it was new, pretty sure it wasn't close to being this good. Jeez, I sure hope they're still doing music. The young lady on guitar is a natural, a pro in the making
I'm a Head East Fan and started listening to them when they 1st "broke out big" in 1975. I bought "Flat as a Pancake" as soon as it was re-released on 8-track and My Wife and Sons will tell you that everytime "Never been Any Reason" comes on the Radio, I'll tell them "That's the BEST Dang Song in the Whole Dang World!", LOL! I love everything about the song, not to mention most of their others (my next favorite is "Gettin' Lucky). So hearing these Young People cover "Never Been Any Reason" WITHOUT a Synthesizer pretty much blew me away. I've found other videos out on the Drummer and he is fairly well known but I can't find anything on the Young Lady, not even her name. I'd love to see what she's been doing lately (I hope she'd still Playing, as it'd be a shame to waste that much Talent).
Are you kidding me thought just another cover, oh how wrong I was these kids have it. Keep on this course, I managed several local bands you keep on you will draw a crowd and a following
I was surfing some old favorite tunes this evening and stumbled upon this gem... So glad I clicked on this video instead of the usual CD rip with cover art from the album. I was curious to see what another band might do with this song, and you guys delivered the goods. Thanks. Keep on rockin!
As a veteran Boston Sound Engineer and Audio Tech with over 45 years working with bands from Aerosmith to The Zulus, all I can say is.... FUCKING GREAT! This performance restores my faith in today's youth! Thank you kids; you made my year.
I just realized this clip is now 6 years old. And six years time is like more than a decade for kids that age. Anyone know where any of these kids are now and if any of them are still involved with music? They were pretty damned talented for their time. Thanks again kids!
@@jackdonahue6588 If you click on the channel, my father recorded us through the years. I stopped playing drums around the time of the last video he posted and started playing guitar.
Made me cry !!!
Unreal to see kids kick the sh!t out that song that’s btw one of my all time favorites. I’m 64 and still a rocker !
Roger-Out
I'm a welder named Richie as well. And this had exactly the same effect on my 61 yr. old self.
The music of my youth!! 🤘
She is amazing! Covering all of those keyboard parts on the guitar and making it sound right! Great job by all!
The original Head East version would have sounded MUCH better if the keyboard parts had been guitar instead. ;)
the girl......... awesome artist. you can tell she loves playing, and shes damn good at it.
I agree but I give kudos to the drummer I drum
Yup!

AGREE 1000%
Jason Morris it is good to see 👍

Amen.

Girl on the guitar is spot on. Color me impressed
Chick on guitar is badass
Freakin AWESOME JOB guys! Covering that synth part was BRILLIANT! And the drummer nailed it too. All you guys deserve a major hand!!! NOICE!!!!!!

You're hired. Especially the girl doing the keyboard parts on her guitar. Love it!
Wow i didnt notice that!
very impressed especially by the girl playing guitar and singing
she deserves a raise for the solo, drummer is a prodigy
@@michaelkennedy5126 Thank you so much! I don't play drums anymore, I wound up switching to guitar but I still love to get compliments on my drumming!
Yeah, she did a great job playing the synth parts on the guitar, too! \m/ \m/
@@gonzovlogs2505 Keep playing those drums, though. I started on drums and made a living doing it for several years before switching to a couple of full-time gigs on the guitar, as well. I still love doing BOTH, equally. :)
@@gonzovlogs2505 Dude, you kicked ASS on drums! And I'll bet you're great on guitar as well.
That drummer and lead guitarist have some serious skills, the rest aren't too shabby either. We need more!
the girl on the gibson is the talent of the whole show
This video makes this 57 year-old smile....bigly! ;-)
As a fan of Head East and this song and an old fart lol You guys were great.I know this was 5 years ago but I hope all members are still playing!!!! WELL DONE!
@@gonzovlogs2505 Wow, so happy to hear most all of you are still rocking! Would love to connect with you guys online, jackdonahue1972@gmail.com
Love the fact the girl is playing the keyboard parts on the guitar and doing them GREAT!
Ha! The young girl on guitar is FEARLESS pulling off keyboard solos on guitar! Way to go!
A big thumbs up for the drummer! Some body "Hire" that guitarist!!! Wow!!!
OK this blew me away! Kids doing songs from my generation. I had given up hope. WOW!
Very cool how you played the keyboard parts on guitar. Loved it!
excellent! nailed the cowbell!
This is insanely awesome and totally adorable! Next gen kids handling classic 70s rock like nobodies biz. Fantastic! 🤘🏼
I swear this video made my life better in sooooooooooooo many ways! AMAZING performance. I love this song and now these little Rockers! TOP NOTCH!!!!
Does my heart some good to check these kids out. There are an awful lot of comments on CZcams by kids denouncing today's music. Here are a few trying to keep the good stuff alive. Good going guys.
As good as everyone is doing, the drummer is kicking it!
Oh heck yeah!!! Young lady with the SKILLS, you guys rock!!!

Check out the Red Hots cover
@@RTBryant1964 I already did!
Does anyone know if they still play?
I hope these kids look back on this with pride, they did a wonderful job
That girl is awesome, I would pay to see these kids play. Also love their video of Deep Purples version of Hush
Almost didn't watch this one, glad I did. Great job kids, keep it up
Holy cow that band is so tight! Nobody's missing a trick, but needs more cowbell!
My crew was chillin right here, watching this vid and we were all saying “bro needs more cow bell”.....then sure as shit drummer starts pounding that cow bell like a Schmidt’s beer! Oh hell yeah!!!!
ok...its been 10 years... where are they NOW?? COME ON! THIS IS FREAKING RIGHTEOUS!
Can't believe I'm just finding this. Awesome!
Killer! Great job guys!!
Love seeing the young ones playing the classics, and enjoying it!! Job well done, extra Kudos to the gal on guitar!!
wow what a lead ! Love it when the younger ones discover R & R and kick it out
This was fun. Pulled it off without a synthesizer too! Very impressive. Each had their own look and personality. Low slung bass player and everyone talented. That guitarist could really play and sing. Dude singing talented!
DRUMMER SPOT ON
those keyboard parts on guitar are really great!
never have seen that attempted in any of the covers I have seen of this Head East tune.
wow that's great!
Fantastic job done by these young musicians. I've seen Head East back in the day when they played small night clubs and when there was the Iowa Jam. The vocals were split and had the cowbell, but didn't know how it would work without a keyboard, but the gal pulled it off!
Girl doing the keyboard stuff on guitar has the chops!!!
Wow the intro solo on guitar... It sounds great.... Excellent vocals. Keep on rocking!!!!
There is hope for the future of music ...

Damn this is awesome! Great job on one of the best rhythm guitar songs ever! And the lead guitar is just as awesome too!
six years old. These kids are grown now but wow....did they rock out this classic song! Hope they moved on and continued rockin'
I like the choreography as she points to the singer as she sings her part, like she’s singing to him
Great job, bravo, you youngsters rock!!
Great cover. Made my day. Good luck to all of you.
All great musicians past and present started out like this. If you're gifted, you're gifted!!
Awesome. I played this song when it came out. This kids killed it. Look for them in 10 years. Keep doin it!
These kids are really good, keep on keeping on. The girl is rocking out big time.
The guy on bass with it knee level. Legend
