Rock music as it should be. The band is really on this night and this song just flies.

Donna and Bobby really sing it-NO screeching. Their singing throughout this June 76 run is just fine. For all you Donna haters, listen to this

Solid,well sung, nice little solo, and it is so sweet after the huge UJB>Wharf Rat>DS>Sugar Mag that comes before it. It just fits in so well.

Just watching this on You Tube and it's so wonderful. Lovely to see Jerry well and in his prime, sweetly jamming with Donna. very jazzy, very sweet. Go run and see!
He's Gone

Stanley Theatre

Can't be beat. I think it's really hard to judge the He's Gone from this period, Starting in the August shows, through September. even trying to pick the best of the 3 nights at the Stanley is impossible! Listen to them all. Phil's bass playing is remarkable. The outro jams all so yummy. I do love this song.
Chinatown Shuffle

Olympia Theater

Top rate, 100% Rock and roll. listen to Keith's playing,but the whole band is spot on...Then one of THE BEST EVER China Cat >Riders ever.

Great version from a very good show that lives in the shadow of the night before. Still a spectacular 3 night run at the Stanley Theatre in a year of brilliant shows, no brilliant TOURS!
