Wow.. can Donna's voice be any worse on Music Never Stopped ?
-Roh (08/16/2009)


ok, maybe it's me but....i don't have that much of a problem with donna's voice, save for some horrible screams on "Playin'"

One of the most innovative St. Stephens you will ever hear! A distinctly '76 version with some '74 improve to boot. Just listen...
-Andrew (04/15/2010)


Definately pleasantly surprised by this one (as 76 is often seen as a "clunky" year). Very groovy
-Rob (03/11/2011)


We hadn't had a small venue show back our way since the Fall of '72, so this short stay at the Beacon was water to a parched landscape. Everyone enjoyed the bath.

This was my first show. We had no tickets, but I knew if we went to the stage door and showed our Fireman badges, we might get in, we did. We were so excited we started to climb the steps into the fly, someone started yelling at us. We apologized, and said, we didn't know. We walked out into the floor stage right of the band, and just mingled with the crowd. If you listen closely, you can hear me ask the band to, "play something about NY" just before the band goes into Dancin in the Street!

Best St. Stephen?

Stella,,,indeed

Absolutely love the St Stephen - Not Fade Away from this show. The '76 mellow jamming is ooey gooey goodness to my ears, mind, & spirit. Another standout in this show is Phil's fantastic playing. I'm always in awe of Phil's bass groove, and this night he is on fire throughout. Check out his frenetic style on Samson...Mind blowing. And the Phil-bomb meter is maxed out on Scarlet.

On the 'not-so-good side', I think Stella Blue is kind-of a train wreck (Jerry forgets the first verse and never fully recovers). Timing just does not seem right from Stella to the end of the show. On multiple occasions Jerry's guitar kind of fades away, and the band's cohesion during transitions between songs is less than stellar.

All that said, I have thoroughly been enjoying the new June 1976 boxed set. I'd rate this particular show near or at the bottom of the featured five shows, but even with 'warts & all', I'm so happy to have this concert in my library.
