Post a better live performance...

My favorite version of this song. Alan Lanier (R.I.P.) is amazing on this track, and shows why this band was so bloody incredible because of everyone involved, not just one person. The classic line up is still my favorite. Al Bouchard's song writing and vocals were incomparable. Donald's playing just set them over the top.

So appropriate today!
I saw them in that era at Lupo’s, and Hampton Beach.
 
Dammit Adrian, now you've gone and done it.

:mad:

I hate the Bee Gees.
I have hated them since day one.
I have hated everything they have ever done.
(except some tracks from that dopey disco movie. Go figure...)
Some of them are dead and I don't care. I hate the dead ones too.
I hate them all with the burning intensity of a hundred thousand supernovas.
They are, always have been and always will be a festering boil on the skin of music.
A billion years from now the average overall quality of all the music ever composed and
performed throughout the entire universe will still be significantly lower than it would have been
had they never existed.
I hate them.

This I 100% agree with. Disco was bad enough, but the Bee Gees made it more dislikeable. Thank God they were born on the Ilse of Man, so us Aussies can throw off on "they're not from f'n here mate". Cheers
 
OK.
This is a little bit out of left field
and may be odd coming from me,
but it is a good performance
and has a relentless groove.

Never seen them live but playing that song live is always a gas. The beat is very infectious. You start playing it and all of a sudden it’s fifteen minutes later and you’re still playing it.
 
Great White 'Rock Me' live 2/02/1988

Note Guitarist Mark Kendall (in Western hat) who grew up in nearby Loma Linda, California and now lives in Palm Springs. Great live guitar tone here!!!
