Love this live version! That 1st Modern Lovers album was just incredible. Although I will always love Jonathan's music, I wonder what would happened had he kept on THIS path instead of ditching The Modern Lovers sound for more 'simple' songs. I would have loved to see how the band would have evolved. Hell, the Modern Lovers album, which was more or less glorified demos, sounded better than 95% of what was coming out at the time. Oh, what might have been.....

@KoenHead I hear you. This stuff remains all the more magical and tantalizing.

Who is this "Hippie Ernie?" Is he related to Hippie Johnny? So many hippies running around Boston in the early '70s! :) Great post. Thanks for sharing!

Thank You SOOO much for posting this. This is the best version I've heard! I have the Berkley LB Saloon show & a unknown 1972 show on 2 LP's. Would you want to trade for this show?
