Elvin Bishop live at the Aurora Blues on the Fox festival June 13, 2008. The band really rips it up on this 1974 classic originally off EBs album Let It Flow.
As for Manny's question about dropping the "tenderize her head" line, Elvin's ex-wife and daughter were brutally murdered in California abut ten years ago and he probably just doesn't find the line very amusing anymore...
Saw him at Fillmore West, summer '69, where he played frequently as a favorite, on a blues bill. Great performer. I think they trade off leads in this song as it develops. Love the piano work, too, and the sax.
What can we say it's ELVIN we love him!!!

Definitely showing , (and feeling), his age. Can't beat the Let It Flow version...

What's he doing? Sleepwalking through this song? Doesn't have nearly the kick of the 70s versions. Getting old I guess.

What happened to: "Gonna get me Hank Aaron's Baseball Bat and Tenderize Her Head?" LOL - I guess it's dated and politically incorrect!

Hey, you do know that the first killer guitar solo is not Elvin right? I say this because
you kept the camera on him the whole
first guitar solo but his hand movements
don't match the riffage.

I wish someone could put his Hey Good Lookin' version of Hank Williams song on here too.
