It's pure talent, without egos getting in the way. When musicians all pull together in the same direction, amazing things can happen. God bless the real players, they do make a joyful noise unto the Lord (translation for the non-believers: they kick mother f-in ass).

same way when Marty had Roger Mc of the Byrds on

Johnny still has the great voice. Playing with Marty and his band, they have created the best version of "Poor Side of Town". Fabulous!This sounds better than 90% of the new music coming out anymore.Don't worry, Johnny, you are in many people's Hall of Fame.

His performing gets most of the attention, but he also had a huge run of success as a producer, bringing The Fifth Dimension and Jimmy Webb to the public.

Thanks Lester. Could never get enough of Johnny Rivers. It is a travesty that he was never inducted into the Rock "N Roll Hall of Fame. He is a genuine talent, on the scene for nearly 50 years!

pure talent,that magic voice just wont let him and us down long live johnny rivers

He still sounds as good as he did when I was his roadie in the 70s. Great artist, great guy.

One of his great songs and yes he should be in rocking roll hall of fame.

"Summer Rain" is probably one of the five best American songs ever and its is one of the most underated songs. "Summer Rain" actually gains in popularity every year. Rivers has a voice that stokes up emotions and can capture magic in all songs that he does.....

Johnny's voice hasn't lost a whit.

Great legendary performer. Johnny has done some of my favorite music my entire life. A voice like Roy Orbison...an excellent entertainer like Elvis. Rivers is an American treasure....Such a wonderful singer and rock star...Johnny helped give rock radio stations their Golden Age with his songs. He is really one of the best ever.

He still sounds great so glad to see him doing so well.

Born in 1942, New York Italian man, grew up in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. A great person, great musician and singer. Time for HOF !

I’ve seen Johnny twice at Billy Bob’s Texas back in the early 2000’s. He always puts on a good show and is one of the nicest guys you may meet. He always hangs out at the end of his show and sins autographs and chats with fans. Great guy.

Marty Stewart a legend and phenomenal hasn't changed..great guitar stringer and his solar voice is terrific..Band is fantastic

I really did´nt know Johnny Rivers was that good. Sensationel singing and guitarplaying. I remember him from the radio in the 1960´s. These days he´s even much better ! Thank you for first class intertaintment!

I have been a Johnny Rivers fan for over 45 years.

How can you tell the story of rock n roll without Johnny Rivers !!!

I love Johnny's music even after 50 years

WOW... I missed this show... Mr. Rivers is a super great and playing with another great, Mr. Stuart!!!

My favorite artist ever...After seeing so many shows, and meeting artists. Johnny Rivers put on my all time favorite show outside of Santa Fe, New Mexico. A true gentleman, humble, sounds like he did in 1964. He is absolutely the best entertainer...Every live show is great. You have to see Johnny while he is still touring. NOT TO BE MISSED EVER.

I saw Johnny Rivers a haft dozen times or more in my 20s back in the 70s he was playing every free show in the Washington State Parks around the Seattle area usually put on by the Rainier Beer Brewing Co. Local radio Stations and the bigger night clubs, a great show every time , he also played lead guitar on every song , an excellent guitar player ,it was legal to drink alcohol in the state parks back in those hippie days , they always had kegs of beer , , ,

Just listened to Johnny Rivers' second song on the show. He has the greatest accent. So nice to know he still looks and sounds great!

Jonny you did it thanks keep it up

Wow! I've drifted a long way down life's river since first hearing Johnny Rivers sing this in 1968. Grateful he can still sing it so well and that I can still hear him!

I always have loved to listen to Michael Bloomfield and never strayed. But Mr: Rivers came through Santa Cruz and he played two sets and I wanted to hear more he really changed my world of music. I keep looking for him playing live somewhere, but no luck. Johnny Rivers just puts a smile on my face thinking about fantastic memories. Thank you Mr: Rivers.

What performances! Johnny Rivers sounds so great with a great band behind him! He is so underrated! Marty's songs too are so great! I love this!

Hearing all of these talented people sing and play together puts me in a great state of mind. Thank you Marty, Johnny, and the Superlatives!

I think what we have go with Johnny has been great the way it played out. And you know even if Johnny doesn't realize how many fans and appreciation he has it sure seems like he has and does truly enjoy what he has and is doing, and that is the most important part.

Johnny is such a class act! The best...thanks Marty for producing this video...love it..band sounds so goooood!

Johnny's always been one of my favorites. Of course I love his Whisky A Go Go stuff, but if you like Poor Side Of Town, I really recommend that you check out all of the Rewind album. It is one end to the other all great songs. He covered a lot of songs in his career, but no one does 'em like Johnny does. He still performs and does a lot of great guitarin'. And who cares about hall of fames. They are all more problems than they are worth. We all have our own favortites. God's got Johnny's spot in his HOF one day.

What does one do if he knows/and his mates know that what they see and hear is a 70 plus man who is one monstrous music box- the diners with the choices in them, that he would fill everyone ever made, "superlatively" WELL TO ALL WRITERS!!!! HERe IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO WRITE a biography that will ROCK ROCK!! THe king of "sleepers" . Start with this fact. This low key man is worth $150 Million. He did not do that in a vacuum,, he never sold an athletic piece of crap, nor his name- rather he bought belief in himself. But owning your own label is the smartest, gutsiest thing, as the hate comes down on you for actually acting as a capitalist in America- how dare he... the writer would have to open up this mans heart- which i believe is in a tight lock bock, he is the initiate to the Whiskey, and his name someone had enough integrity to list his name first, then landing mccoo, then the new bachrach , namely jimmy webb!! THe book would tellme if for X millions Webb's rights were sold?? Then how did he get the very finest back-ups that one can see at JR's Monterey appearance==Jim Gordon for one played a lot of drums for jr. Did JR pay the SCALE? or did they say to jr- "This one is on us" Recently I have figured his favorite genre was the blues!! notice his jaw muscles going apalaflective plus his body gets into it, and he plays a very righteous lead guitar- in rooster-a whole new vibe happens. anyway Jr it is ok to BRAGG as peole have no clue, and your BRAGG is backed up...

Among the best things I have ever seen or heard.

Saw Marty Stuart and his Fabulous Superlatives at a show in a very small converted church turned into a concert venue called "The Tabernacle" in Mt. Tabor, NJ a few years back during the "Way Out West" tour...that tight little hall couldn't have sat more than a couple hundred people...best show I ever attended!
