Someone tell me why my comments don't post.I first Steve when "Alive on Arrival" was out. "Goin Down to Laurel"! He was so great with a backing band!He played for hours and every show was great.Along with Bob, Neil and a few others, Steve helped me through some rough times.I showed him and his band where to buy a sandwich in Harvard Square in 1984.I told him what his songs meant to me, and he seemed to appreciate it. Play on, Steve.
so surprised he's not been covered by country and folk artists; he's writing so much better than most of them. Very likeable and wise. Alive on Arrival album still in my record collection. Saw him in Glasgow and was very pleased to see him at last.
Boy...I just love him. Back in middle school while my friends were buying Go-Go's albums, I was playing Alive on Arrival on my record player in my parent's basement over and over and over...he had a major influence on a young girl's musical tastes...I got to thank him in person when he played here in Vermont about a year ago. He signed my old, banged up, worn out album cover. Thanks for posting!
What was the venue in Haddon Heights? I wish I knew about this show. Is he still doing shows? I saw him in a bar in Browns Mills, NJ in 1980. To this day I still tell stories about that show.
Good job Steve
Keep up the good work

romeo and juliet. What a great man. Gave up fame for real life. If only the rest would follow. maybe there could be real peace and love.

The song is called "I'm in love with you" from his 2nd album, Jackrabbit Slim. You can find it on Rhapsody.
