The 70's, early/mid 80's were Awesome!! There will never be another Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet, Auman Brothers, Marshal Tucker, Outlaws, Lynyrd Skynyrd, 38 Special, Ozark Mountain Daredevils or Atlanta Rythm Section, NEVER!!! Just thankful I was alive, there and listening when it was all fresh and new!!

Got to see Blackfoot several times in the late 70s. 38 Special was on fire back then as well. Rock shows in those days were the real deal.

Ricky Medlocke wrote and performed a big part of the soundtrack to millions of lives. He’s an Icon. An American badass. And a living legend. Plays every show like it was his first and last. I respect his work more than ai can adequately put into words. Wish I could shake his hand and just say “thanks, for everything.” I know it wasn’t easy. But, he makes it look that way.

I was 13 it was AWESOME! and glad to see him with a great band and doing it! wish he would do something in 2018

After all these years this song is still a timeless toe tapper🤘🤘🤘🤘.

More than just a classic,this song is ICONIC.

One of my top 10 bands of all time!!! Rickey & "Shorty" Medlocke NICE INDIAN IS NOT A BAD WORD!!!

I saw them on the Strikes tour as an opening act. Rick Medlocke is an underrated musician, much less a guitarist! He writes, plays multiple instruments & arranges some of the best songs around! He plays these riffs as if were nothing, but they are fast & he is smooth!

Crankin' this song tonight for my man up in heaven. All the excellent jams we shared together over the years..Love ya and thank you babe for being so damn awesome. This song will always remind me of you, so many will....Rock on in eternity until we meet again!

Jackson spires was the man kept the back beat .rip thunderfoot

Blackfoot was one of the first cassettes I bought as a teenager Money well spent!

This is classic Southern rock

I saw Deep purple with Blackfoot in the mid 1980's. It was in a little League baseball park in Flint Michigan. What a show! Blackfoot rocked my world that day! More so than Deep purple. Great to see they are still rocking! Love it!

Rock and Roll will never die nor will Blackfoot.So mote it be!

Upon hearing this song, mid/late 1970s...become their "signature" song! Keep that train a-rollin' on them tracks, Rickey!

Got my first speeding ticket while cranking this tune! It was worth it!!

Legend indeed.......

Fantastic example of country meets rock and roll. Took the country music scene another 20-30 years to catch on. Now half the new country acts are fusion country/rock. About time and long live rock and roll.

One of my favorite songs, love this band, always wished I could see them in person 🎶🤗🤩💖

Love Ricky, loved Blackfoot back in their day. I can respect working hard to keep a legacy alive too. But with a couple youngsters and their Mohawks it begins to resemble one of a billion garage bands around the world. Long live those old boys who weren't scared to put a little twang in those songs!!

That was awesome.....WOW!!!

this had me smiling..everyone on stage looks like they enjoy being there and the crowd too..great song..
