From Austin City Limits, I remember seeing this made me a Delbert fan for life, still buying his music. Classic!

Thank you for allowing others to watch this even today in 2023. Brilliant! Cheers from NZ :)

My Dad turned me on to Delbert and I have been a fan ever since. This footage is GOLD.

Loved the Cate Bros back in the day but didn't really appreciate what a smokin' hot band they were too. Great footage of Delbert and the boys in concert. Many thanks for sharing this.

Tell the Cate bros Sylvia said HAY!!! ~barflySue the₩ildTyp£!!!

Saw the Cate bros. with Levon Helm in Montreal twice. The first time it was at the McGill auditorium and the second it was at a club on the West Island called Mapes I think. They were 3 feet away form me on stage the size of a drumset! Played just like they were for 10,000! Grateful to have lived to see all this talent so close up. Glad to hear the Cate Bros. are still playing. My old band used to cover Union Man!

The Cate Brothers are gods here in NW Arkansas.🎶💕👍

The great Billy Sanders on the ES-335. Rest easy, Billy.

In 1985 a friend showed me the 145 progression on a bass and many good times came of that. He also gave me a Cate Brothers album. When I heard Yield not to temptation I was so taken that it helped me to understand what playing in the pocket means. Wonderful ! As for Delbert what can I say ? Simply Amazing !

Saw him alot back in Houston tight tight band even way back then - Thanks for posting !!

Thanks for uploading this! I'm 31...and sad to say one of the few people of my generation that love Delbert...I've been trying to find any video footage of Delbert pre '81 but it's tough...so thanks! The Cate Brothers always deliver too!

saw Earl and them last night, Terry is still with them, very good time

Thank you, put on as many as you have. They are the best local band I think we've had . Dance all night long with these guys!!!

Thank you for sharing this....what a great combination of Delbert McClinton and The Cate Brothers! I've included this in one of my playlists!

Thank you so much for this! LOVE The Cate Brothers!!

Man! I've been looking for this for ages! Thank you for sharing this.

Great to see this old footage from the UK. We love 'em too! Earl really socks it from 43:00 onwards - great to see them all those years ago before they did their one and only European Tour . Thanks for posting - keep them coming if you have any more as we haven't seen thisfootage in the UK

Thank you so much for sharing this, holds a special place in my heart ❤️

DELBERT RULES !!

Season 4 Austin City Limits # 408 aired 1979. Levon Helm with the Cate Brother were on SCTV season 4 #1 in season #79 in Series aired date 5/15 1981 ie One On the Town

Delbert said this is his favorite song. "Because it's my life." I know it's so.

FANTASTIC

'I Don't Know Why'. One of my favorite Cate songs. Right up there with I'm Losing You'. Is that Jim Spake on sax?

Robert Johnson - It is. (My first "tour")

I love that there's some little kid on rhythm guitar. Who did he grow up to be? Also I love Take It Easy in G! I sing it in Bb like on the album with my band but this would be much easier to cut that vocal in.

The youngest 'member' of the band is probably Delbert's son, Clay.

Yep, I've known Ron since long before the Cate Bros, back when he was silk screening up in Johnson...

It's definitely Duck on :Where can we go?", the last track.

I don't know whether he ever played at a Warehouse, but Delbert played some shit holes, SLU Union, there were Seats for days, but only 14 persons were there, all from Bogalusa, from Austin to Pensacola, from Nawlins to Memphis, any I am rambling, jűs sāyīn !😎✌😎!

I hear ya, Freak. I once saw Bob Seger at a local VFW hall. There were about two dozen folks there. I was standing close enough to shake his hand. Sometimes ya gotta pay yer dues.

I got to see him in Glenwood Springs, Co in the early 90' s. That night I "tried out" in the crowd and got to get up and sing with him. Wish I could remember which one. I've got it on cassette, Ha! Saw them outside Portland, Or at an outdoor concert in the late 90's. Probably in Springfield, Mo, as I saw tons of greats who came through if Chicago was on their curcuit.

Three chords and the truth

Someone asked about who is the sax player. Is it Don Wise?

@gonzalotrevino4733

Sax player is Robert Harwell, Ronnie Cobb on keys, Billy Sanders on guitar, and I think Randy Keen on the other sax. All from Fort Worth. The drummer is Ernie Durawa from San Antonio.
