    My husband and I would play this song, every Friday night before we went out to our favorite beach bar. He died this week. The day after, I was standing in line at the Target pharmacy, waiting to pick up a prescription.This song came on. I don't remember ever hearing music in Target before. I think this was his way of contacting me. We were married 58 years.

If you go back into the catalog, he’s a big part of the magic on every song. Don’t Do Me Like That sounds like they wrote it to put him out front. Whole band is in top form on this one.

    I was lucky enough to see him 3 times.When he did this concert in Gainesville my wife was undergoing a bone marrow transplant at Shands in Gainesville and unfortunately we were so caught up in her that I didn't even realize he was playing. It was only until a few years later when I saw this on you tube that I figured out what I had missed. Still kick myself in the ass over that one.
