Ballsy strut. Donna and Bobby are perfectly in sync, the mix is great, and Jerry's on fire. Check out the Miller cleanup.

Baffling that this isn't here yet. Perfect tight ensemble playing, exhuberence and one idea flowing into another. Great recent C.Miller cleanup too.

Beautifully cleaned up version up now showcases the tight ensemble playing here. Bobby's tone is crystal clear and his fills are a treat to hear.

If you've passed by this show, you're missing out a sweetheart of a Roses here. Check out the new C.Miller clean pane of glass in the window.

New C.Miller cleanup (10/17) brings in the love. Brilliant show opener with everything '76 has to offer: Hot mellow, lyricisms, and DJG at her best.

Super fine yes, but chilled out? I'm not so sure... By '74 standards the whole year is chilled out, but this SB grooves hard and goes deep in for over 10 minutes. One of the best stand alone versions, for sure.

This is an absolute beauty. Good call. This show needs a bit more love, folks.

Can't update the version that I submitted, but I can recommend that you heads get yer asses over to July 13, 1976 and give this one a spin. It has one of the tightest, musically coherent and spotless drum solos in LIG that I know, and the whole thing just lights everything around it on chemical fire.

Play this for anyone who still insists a) that '76 was a chronic drag; or that b) Donna didn't sing beautifully when mic'd and mixed correctly.

Peggy-O doesn't usually strut or swagger, but this one does. There's a bit more oomph to it, even at the laid-back tempo of the era. Seems like Billy and Mickey kick it forward, adding a back-beat shuffle that serves the song nicely.
