Heart - Cook With Fire Lyrics

Was waiting for “Good evening - welcome” at the end.

And "please welcome for their first time in Memphis" at the beginning! LOL!

moviebuff Indeed!

The live recording of this song that appeared on the dog and butterfly album (I believe) was recorded in Memphis TN. If you listed closely you can hear me screaming.

Taylor swift just got some kind of a 10 year reward for.............?????

Feel real good about seeing Heart and alot of other bands with there Original members...Met Michael DeRoshier and Carmine Appice...at a Drum Contest...a friend of mine won a Brand new Ludwig set of Drums...!!! Me and my Girlfriend at the time did a photo shoot for Oui magazine...l mean she did the shoot...l was there and eventually we got married...but she is now my Ex wife but those were the daze...time flys...were both about 60 now...damn...Time does fly...!!!

My first concert. Heart at International Ampitheater in Chicago 1978! Seen them almost 30 times since. Seen them with a couple girls from high school,one who has passed and one I didn't know,and one I dated. Good time!

Holy crap! Ann and Nancy are SUCH bad asses!!!!

Janis Joplin is the only one, in my view, that matches Ann Wilson's vocal quality, raw power and charisma as a female lead vocalist. Dreamboat Annie is simply the best and next to Zeppelin, Heart is my favorite rock band. Ann Wilson has often been called the female Robert Plant and if anyone viewed her performance singing Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Centers Honors to Led Zeppelin, they will see why.

I meant to add Aretha Franklin to that list as well. Joplin, Franklin, & Wilson: The Mount Rushmore of blues, soul, and rock.

Gerber that's an understatment

Had this footage on beta tape from Midnight Special those were good times,damn good times!!!

I have a red and white Strat like the one Nancy played.

It'll learn you, way way better than school!

The *real* Heart sound. Still a great band (late 80s can be forgiven!), but legendary in the 70s, w/Fisher/Fossen/Derosier — noteworthy in their ability to take a simple riff, pound it to death, make it great. Its here! Combined w/High Time, their epitome...

Still infatuated after all these years...marry me Annie 💍💖

My favorite era of the band

Unsurpassed

Highly professional band, top notch performance.

This is so bad ass if someone asked me what rock n roll is, this would be part of my definition. The energy is intoxicating. I love this song & they're damn sure cooking with fire. Girl is my favorite female vocalist good lord @ their magic

No villa here

I don't know if anyone remembers this but at 2:03 to 2:06 the footage was also inserted into the "coffee achievers"  commercial campaign in the mid 80's.  It was a strange set of commercials that one did know if they funny or serious.  But it worked...

The Bo Diddley Beat.

Check out those legs on Ann, I'd spend 30minutes just lustfully peeling them off slowly right before the love making. A dream that requires a time machine and a lot of luck.

Ooh what an imagination what nice things you said about me send me your phone number I will call you love Ann

Waouw! Such a high quality - '78 .. Mhm!

til Roger had to go fuck it up

Definitely at their peak in opinion! Everything afterwards was a slow decent....

Annie, you r THE babe of rock 🖤

Where is the video of this, their best ever concert. Who owns it and why aren't they selling it?

I saw them in either 77 or 78, at Alpine Valley in Wisconsin, I was 13, best concert I have ever seen, amazing vocals and musicianship. The whole band was amazing.

This has to be from about 1977 because Roger Fisher left the band by 1978 due to being frustrated with his love life going sour with Nancy Wilson.

I've seen a few tracks from this show. Clearly someone owns the whole thing. Whoever that is, shame, shame, shame, for sitting on it. It should have had an official release long ago.

whats the name of the song in 0:15 ??

It's the chorus from "The Boxer" by Simon & Garfunkel (Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel). It's one of the duo's most famous tracks. Ann and Nancy were into folk music (among other genres) back when they first started their career and this song is a great one to play on an acoustic guitar so I guess it made a natural fit for them to play backstage before a gig.

When music was pure and real...

Ann was so hot back then, holy moly.

Gerber Bernstein Amen brother, so sexy!

This is from PIR (Portland International Raceway). Sat. September 2 1978. Opening acts were Randy Hansen, Little River Band and Bob Welch. Was there with about 25,000 others fans. GA ticket was $ 10.00 dollars! There is another video from this concert on YouTube. Straight On Live 1978. Pretty good deal for one of my first concerts.

I love this!! Vintage, raw and intense energy! Heart!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Great footage! Why isn't there high quality DVD release of it? Roger Fisher, Ann Wilson and Michael Derosier bring so much dynamic to the band. Does anyone know where it was filmed?

Steve Fossen looks like Rudolf Nureyev.....

Rock and roll...This is casting a spell.

this is when rock bands could really play as a unit and when good rock and roll was really on the map! how I miss the solid rock of the seventies!!

What is this docu-whatever
it is that you got this from?

Does Ann work it or what?!? Love her!

this band kicked ass I went to a couple of their shows:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

These so-called girl singers of today need to take some lessons from Ann, they're just a bunch of bubble butted no talent hacks with their auto tune crap. Ann was also hotter than any of them could ever hope too be!

I agree 1k % saw them on this tour  they opened w/ this tune  amazing band amazing time  too bad they couldn't hold it together..they should have taken cues from Fleetwood Mac and stuck it out for the band and the music..

Ok so im all for classic rock. And Ann is a beast! However, im not for tearing modern music down. Sure its not everyome cup of tea(sure isnt mine) that doesnt mean, tear it down and call modern artist trash becuase you prefer a diffrent type of music.

Hottest sisters...ever? This songs bangs so hard! Deroshire laid down some of the heaviest grooves with them Ludwigs.

Jeff Porcaro Groove I love the guitars in this song.. It wasn't played much on the radio but I played it ALOT cause it's one of my favorites! It's so unique, energetic and edgy!

Every time I hear this song I wanna get up dance and get crazyyyy YEAHHH

Couldn't have picked a better song to begin the Dog & Butterfly album with.  I have loved this song since the first time I heard it and it still rocks all these years later.

luv the tribal/war beat

cadirector Right ??

From a Limeys point of view, it's strange hearing Ann speak (would love to hear Nancy talk!).  It contradicts that Dreamboat look of  *down to the salt of the Earth, Little House On The Prarie, Hippy girl look*  they had on The Old Grey Whistle Test/Midnight Special video's.  *LOVE* the tough Rock-Chick accent though! :)

This is interesting! Did you imagine her to sound, maybe, northern English? Just curious. I love hearing other cultures' (than mine) ideas/thoughts.

This is a band at the top of their game. Roger Fisher, Howard Leese, Derosier - just a magic time in this bands long career. Hard to top them at this stage. A stunning performance !

Mark Cox ..you too !! What about Ann and Nancy.... WOW !!!!

Ann marry me, I still love you after all these years.

Send me your phone number and I will call you. I.lpve you top

I must ask this, has the Band Heart ever sounded better than this? I doubt that.

1978 Roanoke Va Civic Center...Amazing performance & crystal clear music !!!

with the advent of auto tune all the assholr record execs nedd is a pretty face. you are right ann is the best female rock singers ever..the music execs during the video age basically drove ann out of the business for her weight gain,hoping nancy wouldnt leave with her but she did.hey dumbasses family comes first

Most powerful female singer on earth--Ann Wilson. No woman has performed as many live concerts as Ann Wilson has AND performed them so exceptionally well. The media promoted so many talentless hags over the last 25-30 years  but none had the talent and stamina Ann Wilson had.

Amen...to that; I saw them Three times and all shows were pure energy, amazing vocals and great music.

I see your Ann Wilson and I raise you Chrissie Hynde!

tough girls gotta love em

Pretty

Thank you this is a awesome upload

........   and the moral of the story --------- enjoy your youth!!!!!

I've been a huge fan of Heart and have been following them since the begining(I'M IN MY 50'S) and I have to say they keep getting better and better..especially Ann...her voice is incredible and as much as I've always loved her, I prefer to listen to her from the 80's on..(except the live version of Down on me in 1980--fantastic).you can hear her voice just keeps getting better and better..she is one of a kind and I hope they keep making records because I'll keep buying them..We love you Ann and Nancy!

@robert owen I like "both Anns," but prefer the original line-up of Fisher, Fossen, Leese, Derosier. Current back-up band can't hold a candle to these guys.

+ChartreuseKitty Agreed, but Craig Bartock did a nice job shredding tonight. I was impressed and that's not easy since I was a guitarists wife for a bit.

@MrsCaptJack Craig sucks

Heart-I-Fact >

This was from the  ........... Portland Jam 78'

Saturday ~ September 2, 1978 @ The Portland International Raceway

'Heart' was the headliner for this outdoor concert, where 25,000 attended.

Appearing Bands
* Heart
* Bob Welch
* Little River Band
* Randy Hansen {A Seattle-based guitarist who did a 'Jimi Hendrix Tribute Show'}

Ann Wilson opens up on stage by saying >
"We're going to start off with something new."

The band started playing 'Cook With Fire' in June 1978, and used this song
for their how opener throughout the rest of the 1978 year, and into early-1979

This song was the opening track on their album 'Dog and Butterfly' which was
released on October 7, 1978.

This may have been Heart's most 'edgy' hard-rock song, as it employs raw-power
with an energetic Lead-Guitar from Roger Fisher, a power-beat from Drummer Mike DeRossier, and Harmonica from Nancy Wilson.

Ann Wilson, was 'awesome' as usual.

It goes without saying, that 1978 was probably the best year for Heart, as the
band was at it's tightest on stage 'live'.

'Cook With Fire'

Tuesday ~ June 5, 1979

This was at the 'Mississippi River Festival' in Edwardsville, Illinois.

This was the 1979 Festival Opener, which ran from June 5th thru August 19th,
and held every Tuesday Night.

This was part of the 1978/1979 ~ 'Dog and Butterfly Tour'.

Heart was touring with the band 'TKO' , who also were out of Seattle, and were managed by Mike Flicker, who produced the Heart albums.

As for the song on the album. 'Cook With Fire' was recorded in the studio, but
the 'live audience' was overdubbed from an earlier {1978} show in Memphis, Tennessee

what's that song hummed at 1.11 ? can't seem to recall

I'd sell my soul to sing like that.  She's so damned excellent!!

now  wasn't it better when they didn't play led zeppelin as much

JohnAllanification this was the sweet spot

Ann never sounded better than this! And that's saying a lot! By the way, Ann and Nancy's memoirs are out and the book is amazingly good--you Heart fans will love it!

Fantastic. Chemistry! Alchemy!

I lo ve this song

kicks so much ass

Ann said she suffered with a weight problem all her life, well, if she handled it now like she did in the 70's, we wouldnt know she had a weight problem, cause she looked fine then.

One of my all-time fav Heart songs which was only played for one year during the Dog & Butterfly album tour. THIS was the first live performance of this song as the album had not yet been released. But they kicked major butt at the Cal Jam II in 1978!! This is the original Heart band at its finest!!!!!

nice wardrobe switch Ann ...before coming on stage... :)

ur dream is answered...they are now in the R and R Hall of Fame

The bEST!

душа

I agree that the band members who were "let go" gave the band the hard rock edge, which I miss. But Ann, Roger, and this "keeping in line" thing? Nah.

Good times!!! Thank you so much for posting this for all of us to feast on!!

2:14 Sexy motion Detected! I love Heart :3

It wasn't Ann that was effected by Zepplin...it was Fisher..he had those Jimmy esk minor licks as well as some pre-Eddie Van Major licks and some of that classical stuff as well. He was the guitarist...and when he left the band was never the same. Its not putting down what Howard contributed but if I had to pick I'd take Ann with Fisher and the drummer. Ann should have dated Fisher not his brother...I'm sure she could have kept him inline.

Ann was dating Roger, Nancy was dating the brother. Ann dumped Roger and Nancy dumped the brother and started dating the drummer.

First time I have seen this or heard this song. Freaking awesome. I loved it. "Like".

Rock and Roll...played the way it was meant to be....

Zep worship.

AMEN!!! I HAVE SAID THE SAME THING FOR YEARS. HEART AND RUSH ....SHOULD TELL THEM STICK IT IN THEIR @#$%^!!!!!!!

This really was the best lineup! Roger Fisher is half the show, Love his tight jeans. If only Ann and Nancy would let them back in it would be perfection.

FINALLY THIS YEAR!

JUST LIKE when I saw them here in Vegas....stage, costumes...it's like being there all over again, thanks for posting this!

@Laury: Yep this also is the version that appeared on Dog and Butterfly: no studio version ever appeared,

DJKEOS1 - - - COOK WITH FIRE is a studio recording...........see last paragraph below.

From Wikipedia,
Dog and Butterfly

Dog & Butterfly is the fourth studio album by American rock band Heart, released on October 7, 1978 through Portrait Records. Heart rebounded from their legal dispute with Mushroom Records over the release of the platinum-selling Magazine in April 1978, as Dog & Butterfly was certified double platinum,[6] spent 36 weeks on the charts, and peaked at No. 17 on the US Billboard 200.[7] The album was the 'proper' successor to 1977's hit Little Queen in terms of musical development and direction, and contained two hit singles: "Straight On", and "Dog & Butterfly".

As Heart themselves noted on the album's release, side 1 was the "Dog" side, and was the more "rocking" compared to the "Butterfly" side 2, which was all ballads, with the exception of the closer "Mistral Wind", which, in many ways, epitomized the trademark sound for which Heart would be remembered: folksy ballads shifting into searing hard rock explosions.

Though the first song, "Cook with Fire", sounds like a live recording, the liner notes to the 2004 CD say that it was actually recorded at Sea-West Studios along with the rest of the album. Audience sounds from a live performance were overdubbed on the studio recording.

the absolute best vocalist that there ever was and will be...ann still sends shivers up and down my spine...wow

Mick Jagger ....eat your "HEART" OUT!! NOBADY EVER ROCKS HARDER THAN HEART!

It's really cool to "see" them doing this song live. As far as I'm concerned, Heart are equals to any of the top (male) heavy hitters in rock history. Also I must say, Anne Wilson is a fucking powerhouse! Her and Nancy are rock icons! I fucking love them!

Love it send me your phone number or address I will get in touch Ann

Awesome! No other line up could make this kind of magic. Thanks for posting!

as Eddie Trunk would say "The Rock N Roll Hall Of Shame" Unfortunately another Cleveland joke. No Heart?? No Rush?? No Iron Maiden>>>BLECH!!!!

Ann Wilson = perfection ( 'nuff said )...

Fisher class on guitar, Nancy class on guitar. Ann, the best female rock vocalist of all time too. All brilliant in fact

Mike Derosier was the closest thing to Bonzo, this entire band was killer

NICE SONG

Sheer awesomeness.

F**K the R&RHOF.

Honestly... it shouldn't even be questioned. It should have just been, HEART'S IN! Plain and simple. You know? Lol.

I don't even want to ponder what's wrong with people. Everyone knows Heart kicks ass and is one of the best rock bands of all time... even if they aren't in the Hall of Fame... but still, what's with these pricks? Give them the recognition they deserve and SOON!

Is this part of a film/available on dvd?
