To the guy who said that "Live [Dan] was shit" - you must have been to someone else's concert(s); because, LIVE, he was "Spot-On" every time (saw him 8-9 times, even during his scratchy-blues-voice stage); it was like watching an album, only better.
Perhaps celticlofts was a little under-the-weather (or under the bleachers, instead)
I saw Dan live in Peoria on August 9th, 1974 at the band shell in Glen Oak Park and he was fantasic. He was not shit live as you have stated. I disagree with you.
If Dan wrote this song for me, I would have believed!! You can hear his sincereity in each word. What a beautiful song, beautiful man!!! His voice is pure heaven-loved it when he was a young 20 and still at a mature 40!! Magical!!!
I was actually in the audience at the Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre when he said "You are the first people who are ever gonna hear this song" -- It was a very surreal and INCREDIBLE moment for such a BEAUTIFUL song -- It made me cry that night and it still does to this very day...I miss him so much, and I never even met him in person...
The best and most beautiful version of this song I've seen... thank you for posting all of these videos from Jones Beach (about 10 miles from my home...) Miss you, Dan...
