Allan Kirby Field House

The early Brent era can really be jaw dropping, as this is...epic Jack straws were aplenty in 79....

Everything is gold in this show, and this tune is particularly shiny

Slow groove...all parts are on point...so much tenderness and yet so much power

Seattle Center Coliseum

Swingin' and groovin'...Phil takes charge on forgotten first verse..Bob drops an f-bomb but seems to censor himself on "ain't it a shame" line. Funny

Heady heights hit here by all parties...Donna really stepped it up for Tuscaloosa

Auditorium Theatre

The '76 Cassidys are laid back for sure, but this one and the entire show lope like no other, and in the best possible way. Epic PeggyO, Mission, Jed, epic top-to-bottom

Swing Auditorium

Your analysis may have merit...all I can say is that I love listening to this version...maybe it's the moodiness, or the Phil-heaviness, but whatever it is, it is awesome...there may be better versions, but this one is pretty great to my ears

...Listen to this and just TRY not to grin from ear to ear...especially the banter before it
