Super-fun + life-affirming closer to a blast of a show!

Powerful version from another under-appreciated spring ‘78 show.

Good Lovin'
Oct. 6, 1977
Activity Center. Arizona State U

The “Bertha” is both solid and fairly tame by ‘77 standards, but this “Good Lovin’” absolutely rips. Bobby takes over + gets after it + they’re all firing, though Jerr, uncharacteristically, hangs back. Odd version, but still rippin’…

Nobody’s upset about anything, Seaplant; just always interested in the level of research that the good listeners are doing before they vote on songs. How many versions do you typically listen to before proclaiming one to be better than another…? (Which is far different than saying: “I love this one, for “xxx” reason!”)

Again, very indicative of the show. No highlights, but hot as fuck.

Fuck yeah, Donna! (And fuck absolutely anyone who doesn’t get down with the DG! If you don’t like her, you should’ve confronted Jerry face-to-face back in the day, to tell him how much his musical choices for the band sucked. You wouldn’t have lasted a day inside the band/on tour, yet she fuckin’ owned it for years. Here’s an Angel for you to make your complaint to…)
