@madmikeastoria for sure he was a huge Brian Wilson fan

I saw Henry Gross live in concert in 1977, Montgomery, AL at the Civic Center- he was the opening act for the Doobie Brothers during their "Livin' On the Fault Line" tour. I was afraid his performance would be sappy stuff like this (brilliant though it is), but he put on a rockin' show! I miss honest, pure artists like him- this was a great, great song that put a tear in your eye.

Admit it.... How many of us as teenagers tried to hit those high notes? Usually ended up with your friends either joining in or laughing at your rendition:)

I like the fact that Henry Gross was a founding member of Sha Na Na and their lead guitarist. He performed with them at Woodstock. He was quite a versatile artist.

It's a sad song but it's also a showcase for the talent in the band, and shows what happens when all of the band members are at their best. The guitar work is bright and very good, the drumming is first rate, the bass is strong and right on and Henrys tenor vocal work steals the show. Yes?
