@philcourty What a great experience! When I was in college (Cal State Fullerton), I actually had a marketing class with Vinnie Appice's sister. She had nothing but good things to say about Ronnie. She liked visiting his home because he had such a cool collection of Medieval things. She used to la...

@hess168 My story as well! Summer of '77 in the OC when I first heard this album along with "You Get What You Play For" by REO. Good times!

@NoSteveNoPoint Comparing Queen with Journey is definitely a case of apples and oranges. Steve Perry's soaring tenor was unrivaled and Journey were arguably one of the best blues/rock bands of their day. But I'm not sure you can hold "Lights," "Stay Awhile" (same tune, different lyric) and "Lovin...

@Boogenhagen100 Not sure Ian Gillan had this much vocal support in 1990 :-) but it's definitely a different version than what was released on "Made in Japan" - or at least all three copies I've owned over the years

Yet another tune performed in its original key. Well done, lads!

@TheRockinPajamas Right - it's a perfect solo for a 3-piece. There's no keyboard or rhythm guitar to comp behind him so just fill the space melodically. Nicely done!

Love Keith's guitar playing about as much as his singing. Reminds me of Mark Knopfler

Is that Vince Neil on bass? :-)

These are great clips, Tim! Saw some of the Toronto shows, too. Nicely done and thanks for posting!

@Grabme777 Same here. Come on, Country radio - bring Mary back!

Take a look at this four-piece. Was there NOTHING these guys COULDN'T do? Rock? Soul? Pop? They make it all look so easy!

@footballmafia62 Seriously! Viv, too. But it looks like Phil's sticking with water and veggies these days

I could listen to David Hidalgo sing all day long. Love these guys. My grandfather was from Baja CA so these tunes feel like home to me. Thanks for posting!

Nice recording - well done! (She's a bit "pitch-y," as Randy Jackson might say. But the camera-work is great!)

My senior year in high school, 4 of us got together a group and tried our best to cover it. Our school's choir director had a variety show each year of Broadway tunes but we convinced him to let us play this at intermission. It was great fun trying to "record copy" a chart that was so far over ou...

@CherokeeMusic It matters - and you're right. :-)

Best arrangement EVER of this song! Love the groove!

Wow - the band sounds great and this recording is TIGHT! Nicely done!

Lowell's slide playing on this song is incredible!!

Love this arrangement. The guitar really adds a lot, as do the "bridges" that I believe were not on the original. What a rhythm section!

How about somebody make a bio-pic on the life of Mark Knopfler with Jason Siegel from "How I Met Your Mother" playing Mark?

LOVE THIS ALBUM!!!! Thank you so much for posting!!

Love the vocal @ 1:24 - "His sister's BLAAACCCKKK!" Love it!

@dairenn Me too! Took my 19-year-old daughter who loved it. They were really on it that night, eh? :-0

@rammsteinrulz16 That's hilarious! I am American - and that comment is SO TRUE! :-) This is the best video in the history of country music. Like Ronnie Dunn said, "The great thing about this tune is that you get it the first time you hear it." There's no pretense . . . it just "is what it is."

@pike9346 Seriously! RT's playing is first-rate. And don't you just love how solid Lordan and Dewar are behind him?!

Bill Lordan's drumming is unbelievably good! And "James Dewar on vocals!" RIP JD

Well played by the band but Steve sounds like he's having a hard time keeping up.

@javernot Totally agree! Joe Jackson was an amazing talent. Loved how he and Elvis Costello were so deeply creative and yet first burst on to the music scene with a sort of punk-ish sound.

@jjflashjj Same here. Only got to attend one of the 3 days because a friend could only make the other two. So he got to hear Jerry Jeff Walker and I got the Police, et al. Not a bad trade, eh? :-)

@MrFalcon61 Seriously. Hold the #$%@ camera still!!

@avclubman I think that's why I love this track so much - because I believe it was actually left over from "Aja." Can you imagine that record with this on it as well???!!

Loved this line-up of the band. Mickey Thomas fresh (sort of) off of singing "Fooled Around and Fell in Love" for Elvin Bishop. Dunbar on drums. And yay "Fridays" for getting some great talent. Remember when they had Devo singing "Through Being Cool" while walking on those weird conveyor belts? :-0

@MrHardrod2 Rob Halford and Judas Priest fans may disagree with you. :-) Both Metallica and Queen have left a powerful imprint on the musical landscape. And this clip from AC/DC was truly stunning. Well done!

I love this tune but really hated all the drum machines that country producers used in the 80's

Walter - stop soloing over the second verse!!!

@gebass6 Agree. Jan's a decent drummer as far as keyboardists go but it would have been cool if they'd spent a few bucks and hired a drummer for the studio - like Simon Phillips or Chester Thompson
