After listening to JGW I started watching some Sly and The Family Stone too. Totally funky! Check them out as well.

You know, I totally love this song...but hate this "performance" and couldnt imagine a whole show.

Almost hard to tell its the Steve Miller song, eh?

Actually, looking at the lyrics of the Steve Miller version, It credits John Watson with writing the song.

I never knew that Johnny Watson was the original writer of the song I always thought it was the other way around because of the whole Gangster of Love personna that Steve Miller had.

I dont know about not enjoying a whole show. Judging by the other videos from that show, its seemed like it would have been like going to see the Blues Brothers sans John Belushi and Dan Akroyd and a whole lot more soul

In this song hes on fire on his guitar.
