Felt Forum - Madison Square Garden

Pig comes alive during this song as well as this entire show, and Jerry respond's to his energy level, as does the whole band. I love this show!

Pigs vocals and harmonica are at a high and energetic level on this version. Jerry's guitar playing is a must listen, really!

West High Auditorium

This is a call to all Candyman lovers, listen and vote for this version. The vocals, are just outstanding. Jerry's effect driven solo is perfect for this rendition. The mix is just right on this one. This whole show is great, in the land of the midnight sun.

West High Auditorium

At the end of Jerry's solo the crowd went crazy, for good reason. This was a special Loser, for shure. Jerry's voice was strong and athritative. Listen and vote loser fans.

Hartford Civic Center

Jerry really attacks that solo. His vocals really deliver this song, and the harmonies by Bobby and Donna are stellar. The absence of piano with just a hint of organ make Bobby's guitar stand out more. This may be the definitive version.

This one of the most truthful and energetic versions that I've heard.

This another 77 gem, for sure.
