Good Lovin'

Winterland Arena

Blissful dancealong. As clear a statement of what the good times feeling of the later Donna era could sound like. Nice times.

19 minutes, man it gets weird: whistles, gamelans, melodica solo, bird calls, kazoos, explosions: was every one in on the jam? Anyone remember?

Playin' In The Band

Easttown Theatre

Adrenaline bursting hard driver. Exciting. Jerry at 3:00 solos in all 720 degrees, just propulsive. Give her a spin.

Olympia Theater

Flawless trance-inducing NFA with a perfect transition into GDTRFB. Note for note perfect show.

Sing Me Back Home

Hollywood Palladium

Perfect. May have the best vocal harmonies of all of them. Not here because of low-level boards? Try headphones, heads.

Acoustic bliss and the coolest vocal outro out there.
Candyman
Dec. 26, 1970
Legion Stadium

This whole show is filled with killer '70 gems. And Bobby, Jerry and Pig seem like they were all trying to out sing the other. Rare the show with such consistent vocal excellence. And this Candyman just blows me away again and again.

Sweet and short with Bobby sounding great.

Hill Auditorium

Goes pretty far out, but never loses the intense melodicism and rhythmic driving that characterises this great show. A beauty.
