Average White Band Pick Up The Pieces Comments
  1. F.... K....

    Who's in 2020 watching this???

  2. R.... R....

    Melo da locomotiva era muito bom.

  3. R.... R....

    This is old school locking popping ticking and waving hitting hard snapping!!!.

  4. A.... B....

    Chiama Cappella, chiama, chiama Cappella!

  5. 0.... K....

    Taxi the movie brought me here

  6. f.... ....

    Been playing this song on guitar since it came out! Now learning to play it on sax. Always FRESH!

  7. J.... T....

    739 dislikes? Are you out of your Vulcan mind?

  8. J.... M....

    Steve Harvey just gave these guys a massive shut out as one of his favorite bands when he was a teenager. They were the first band to play live at Soul Train tv show. All others were on auto tune. This was a great band indeed.

  9. C.... X....

    Average White Band!!
    LONG LIVE SCOTLAND!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
    ALBA GU BRAGH!!

  10. J.... H....

    I love hearing this song everywhere I go. I used to work at Home Depot, too, and when I heard this song, it reminded me of my former manager, Deb. The woman was so nice to me, and this is a song to help me remember her.

  11. C.... B....

    My Son was born to this track, it was playing on the radio in the delivery room almost 22 years ago 👌

  12. -.... ....

    I'd pay some big cash to see Vulfpeck cover this masterpiece.

  13. E.... W....

    Iron Man 2 anyone?

  14. M.... T....

    And this reached the summit of hot 100 in 1975 and stayed atop for a week. Who would've thought?

  15. M.... I....

    Heard this song live at a bar in Winnipeg, Canada. Pretty good

  16. J.... G....

    Scotland Rocks! Hogmanay with General Zod!

  17. M.... L....

    They be some bad ass soul brothers, eh Scotsmen, playing this tune...

  18. L.... o....

    We're getting the fuck outta dodge. We're going to Vegas baby

  19. A.... A....

    who else came here from iron man 2 lol

  20. J.... R....

    That’s funny. I’ve never seen garbage eat garbage before.

  21. S.... F....

    Am I the only one who thinks this song served as the inspiration for KC and the Sunshine Band's Get Down Tonight?

  22. F.... P....

    Chiama Cappella, chiama chiama Cappella

  23. S.... G....

    On a episode of Good Times Thelma played that record on a 45rpm when Henrietta J..J.s girlfriend pregnant dancing while having a pep talk with Thelma

  24. S.... G....

    Hustle Man Pick Up Da Pieces got me die laughing on an episode of Martin

  25. J.... W....

    Hearing this makes me think of Swingers when they drive each individual car to the house party lol

  26. B.... M....

    tracy morgan's cover has to be the most iconic

  27. M.... M....

    The drummer stole from Purdie, and why not?

    M.... M....

    Steve Ferrone is a drum genius in his own right. I doubt he stole from the great Bernard Purdy, nor was probably not even influenced by him. Steve is from England and has a Jazz Drumming background. In 1973 I highly doubt he knew much--if anything--about Purdy.

    M.... M....

    @7mileshi Purdie played on so my R@B and soul music hit records before 1973 that Ferrone would have been very ignorant not to have known of him.

  28. v.... r....

    one of the many vinyls i own

  29. E.... ....

    This tune defines the '70's.

  30. C.... O....

    Master piece

  31. S.... B....

    FOREVER CLAAAAASSSICK!!!!!!!

  32. S.... W....

    STILL the jam in 2019!

  33. J.... H....

    RYTHM.THIS SONG HAS GOT IT...DOWN TO EVERY NOTE...

  34. g.... ....

    Chiama cappella

  35. D.... ....

    CHIAMA CHIAMA CAPPELLAH

  36. W.... S....

    Hey, sweet thing! Sit those buns down here!

  37. T.... D....

    CHIAMA, CHIAMA, CHIAMA CAPPELLA

  38. J.... S....

    Dr Funk's cover brought me here

  39. S.... t....

    Disco, Funk, Pop

  40. P.... D....

    Pick up the pieces of of my fragile eggshell mind...KOOKOOKACHOO

  41. P.... ....

    Good song in the corny movie scene when superman kicked that bully's ass. Too bad the YT copyright laws banned this song during that superman YT clip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nu3CLQm-SI

  42. R.... C....

    AWB THEY BROKE IT DOWN AT 2:12. WOO WEE GET FUNKY WIT IT!!!!

  43. D.... W....

    Brings back some GooD memories!

  44. D.... V....

    God Bless this generation !!!

  45. K.... K....

    Afro-funk straight from the Highlands of Scotland. This is the music that had me shaking those black kids out of their socks in the 70s, going strong in the paint, making the winning shot in a championship game. Word.

  46. C.... H....

    Dr West spoke about them on Rogan. The AWB where I grew up stood for the Afrikaner Weerstangsbeweging. I thought wtf why is he referencing them in music. Both my parents are born and breed Glaswegian. Still never heard of them. Thank you Dr West.

  47. D.... J....

    I NEVER knew this was them 😧🤯...I’m MAD at myself 😤😭

  48. L.... J....

    I play this while holding my junk in a mirror

  49. J.... M....

    wow , so found out this is a scotish band from dundee. not a american black funk band

  50. O.... A....

    Is this the original cover?

    O.... A....

    Yes, it is

  51. G.... L....

    Can't sit still when this tune plays.

  52. L.... C....

    .s.t.a.r.k.

  53. c.... ....

    Candy Dulfer's remake is better.

  54. S.... S....

    Excelente música!

  55. S.... M....

    No one doesn't lover that album cover, though can we agree it gives white girl a little TOO much credit, statistically speaking?! God bless her, though, if she's someone they knew.

  56. S.... ....

    Wow..everyone was high all the time, drunk or both and all we could think about was sex. Too bad life didn’t stay that way.

  57. R.... C....

    Best band to come out of Scotland EVER

  58. C.... O....

    Another cool anthem of a generation. Baby boomers RULE American music...Try to find a good band today that has a horn section.

  59. M.... ....

    Who knew the Scots were so funky?

  60. s.... h....

    This is a bonafide classic!!!!

  61. V.... A....

    When your in a bad mood...just listen to any funk song (like this one)...you'll get over it. Perhaps this is the real meaning of "pick up the pieces."

  62. D.... S....

    Doesn't this song make you want to go gambling? :D

  63. R.... T....

    Grover Washington Jr??

  64. J.... P....

    S W I N G E R S

  65. W.... S....

    Awesome...

  66. L.... T....

    You're so money, baby and you don't even know it.

  67. C.... B....

    R.I.P. Sax player Malcolm Duncan. Everytime I hear this song I think of the diner from Superman II and the fleet footed Justin Hammer. 🤣 Thank you Sam Rockwell!

  68. j.... P....

    bonne musique des années 70 ....

  69. A.... M....

    Humpty Dumpty's theme song

  70. T.... P....

    RIP MOLLY DUNCAN!!!

  71. s.... f....

    I love this song! I have been a fan of Awb since I bought this album in 1974.I'm still a fan even today! So sad to hear about Molly's passing! I cried when I heard about this. Molly was such a fantastic musician, and I love his sax solo on "Pick up the pieces "! That song just rocks.Molly's sax just screams out out with soul! That's my favorite part of the song Molly's solo.I love the Dundee Horns! Thanks Molly for all of the soul music you gave us! RIP! God bless your family, and Awb thanks for rocking us with lots of soul! Molly and Robbie will be playing up in heaven! Robbie McIntosh former drummer Awb,who died in 1974.🎵🎵🎵🎼🎼🎼😊😊😊😂😂🤣🤣🤣🎙🎙🎶🎶🎹🎹🥁🥁🥁🥁

    RIP to Molly Duncan, and even moreso that he died on Hamish Stuart's 70th birthday! But what a gift he left to us all with this legendary funk masterpiece!

  92. J.... M....

    So sorry to hear that Malcolm (molly)Duncan is no longer with us, RIP molly thanks for the music.

  93. J.... C....

    My Senior prom theme song; The playing is too stiff except for the hot sax solo. The year before that it was Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven", and I said to my then girl friend, "Let's get outta here and I stick in an 8 track and play "The Song Remains the same" or "The Bridge" or "The Crunge", maybe listen to Looking Glass doing Brandy, or Jr. Walker and The All Stars doing anything.

  94. S.... C....

    RIP MALCOLM DUNCAN😭🎧🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
