News to me. Sad to hear. Rest in peace. The man. I think love is alive is just a little bit better than Dreamweaver lots would disagree perhaps

The 70s were such a great decade for music great songwriters musicians, before MTV

Gary Wright passed away last month. I was a little kid when this song came out and I remember this song because it reminds me of an older brother I once had and I would hear him and his girlfriend doing "I don't know what" in his room when he played his albums, and this was usually one of the songs.

I was 10 years old when I heard dream weaver and I’m 56 now and I’m still jamming to this song !!

Little kid in the car with my dad, turning up the radio just a little... Thanks, ya done it again💙

RIP Gary.

This is definitely a love making song! My husband is 62 and I am 61 and we always listen to music when we love ❤! Probably the reason we have 4 kids and after that we both got fixed 😂! Now they are out of the house, it’s on like Donkey Kong! Music is love that you share with your soulmate ❤! Been married 35 years, so that’s a lot of music 😊

Rock on Hippychic723! 59 and 58 and , in many ways, has never been better!

Chaka Khan does a cover of this, but at a much faster tempo. Like a club song. You mentioned "dream weaver". You should try it. It has a dreamier mood. Also "I really want to know you".

RIP Gary🥹 y’all so dang cute! I love watching you guys interact 🥰 that song had me dancin’.. and remembering 😊 keep on watching the 70’s music.. Best era for Rock n Roll!

He was with a group called Spooky Tooth. You should give Waiting for the Wind a listen

I did not know he passed away. 😢 I hope he continues to sing. Rest in peace, Gary. ❤

RIP Gary Wright! This was my Jam when I was about 8!

My God... I saw Gary Wright open for Peter Frampton in 1976... He was all keyboards, no guitars until 1979....

I did, too. The British Invasion Tour, something like that. I saw him here in San Diego, CA at Balboa Stadium on July 18, 1976. Gentle Giant, Gary Wright, Yes and Peter Frampton. ❤🎉

​@@isleJaneThere is footage of this song live @ that 1976 show out on KZread. So cool.

R.I.P. Gary.

Oh boy ! This one took me back in the day...hadn't a care in the world and was just enjoying life...living and learning. Gonna be 60 on the 16th. That tells the age of this song. Killer tune. Thanks for sharing. Blessings

RIP Gary! Thanks for making great music sir. You'll be missed. Nice reaction guys.

The riff was sampled by 3rd Bass in Wordz of Wisdom.

Saw him with Peter Frampton back in the 70s. Nice. Thank you.

I can't remember the last time I heard this song, but I still know all the words.

Gary Wright's music was the soundtrack of my teenage years. I had this album, and there wasn't a bad song in it. Rest in peace, Gary.

1:46 Ya, Gary has/had (R.I.P.) that effect on the ladies back then. Looking foxy and digging the tunes. He made ya tingle a bit there, didn't he? I've seen that spell since the '70's! The knock out punch is Dream Weaver to follow up with.

This album came out right after I graduated from high school. I remember jammin’ out to this on my little portable 8-track player in my car .. 😁❤️. I thought it was amazing that all that music was made by keyboards except for the drums.

I knew you two were going to dig this one!!! VERY Soulful and Funky. You can groove to this one. Excellent reaction.

When this came out everyone thought it was strange. He was a hit with the custom van guys. Shag carpet. pull out couch , the works.

This is such a great song, Remember when it came out

Great song. It’s one of those songs that come on and just hits your ears in a different way. A song you can groove to in silence.

You'll definitely like " POWER OF LOVE " by GARY WRIGHT 1975 . He left a Legacy of Wonderful music 🎶 🎸 for all of us to enjoy. R.I.P. Gary Wright.

Grew up with this song in the 70s. Rip gary❤

I rememder this from when i was a younster. Long time ago! Thanks you guy's,love the reactions.😃🇨🇦

All keyboards and a drum machine. That's it!!!

Woa!❤ you 2 havin a moment 💥

Features Wright on vocals and keyboards and Andy Newmark on drums, with all music except for the drums produced on the keyboards.

One of my favorites!!!! 😊

Rip Gary

This song brings me back to a simpler time. I know there are some who agree.

One of my favs..definitely got super soul brother vibes...sing it Sir!

Gary Malcolm Wright (April 26, 1943 - August 30, 2023) was an American musician and composer best known for his 1976 hit songs "Dream Weaver" and "Love Is Alive". Wright's breakthrough album, The Dream Weaver (1975), came after he had spent seven years in London as, alternately, a member of the British blues rock band Spooky Tooth and a solo artist on A&M Records. While in England, he played keyboards on former Beatle George Harrison's triple album All Things Must Pass (1970), so beginning a friendship that inspired the Indian religious themes and spirituality inherent in Wright's subsequent songwriting. His work from the late 1980s onwards embraced world music and the new age genre, although none of his post-1976 releases matched the same level of popularity as The Dream Weaver. Wikipedia. ✌️🎶

Dreamwaver album was so great!

Before on his own, he was with Spooky Tooth, who had some pretty good music imo

Such a great song. It's so funky and soulful and hot. I always took it as a song about someone who finally found that one great love we all dream of. And he finally feels alive in that love.

this was a big song at the skating rinks back in the day!! Love it, I miss those days.

Oh Memories RIP

lets go! R.I.P. Gary!

One of the great albums.

I think he's saying his spirit has awakened, and he feels alive with all the right feelings! It was a good time in the seventies, as many people "love's were alive"! Spiritual awakening in the Seventies. Gary's Dream Weaver is about God waking him up! Or the Spirit moving him! The seventies were a really good time for spiritual awakening, as proven by Gary! Chakras, and just general overall feeling good!

Classic S tier song! Fantastic for all time! 😎

You can't beat this song and "Dream Weaver". Have you guys heard that one?

Yall have a merry Christmas all the way from Memphis ✌️😎 Also: check out Little River band -Lonesome looser or he’ll really anything they do. Lol Lastly: Cry of love is a great band a lot of folks forgot about

I keep expecting him to open his eyes lol

When I was a kid and glanced at this image, even though his eyes are closed, my first reaction was, "Whoa! Dude's got some sort of white blank eyes or something! That's too creepy for me!"

About a year ago you did his "Dream Weaver".

Unfortunately Gary passed in 2023 , super talented man. R I P

Nothing like a seventies groove! As a teen then this was very important to me. :)

Check out "Water Sign"

The last thing he did with ringo star great live music

Cliff Richard -"Devil Woman"

My middle daughter used to think that the proper way for a day to go was to wake up about 10:30, have a bite to eat and then go back to bed until lunch. She was incredibly grouchy if you woke her up early. And then school started. She had some teachers who claimed that they didn’t know she could smile because they had her in the morning. End of the story even now, it depends on the time of day what her mood is going to be and at 35 years old I don’t see it changing anytime soon.

Please play 'The Walk ' by Mayer Hawthorne

He aint wrong!

Oh yes cool beans 😊

Classic

❤

Nope, no guitar on this. The entire album is electronic except for drums, and guitar by Ronnie Montrose on one song.

Nice react... 🙂

Gary Wright was proud of the fact that he used absolutely no guitars on his music. He even bragged about it on his album covers.

RIP.

😢❤

Spooky Tooth

Angela...showin...growin... oh sorry! I meant... goin.😂

Why don't you guys do a reactions with Rob squad? It could be fun🎉

And except for the drummer and vocals, it's all keyboards!

You guys didnt know this?

Too bad the Dreamweaver is no longer alive.

Angela, you went on forever...mayne you cluld write a book. It will be called...my love is alive. A porn book. And I wish you guys would stop saying...My Love is Alive.
