We've Got Tonight (Live from Culver City, 1997)
4m 13s
Hi Friends,
Act 2 is here — and it does not disappoint.
This is the closing half of a 1997 rehearsal concert Barry performed before hitting the road on the Clicker Tour in support of Summer of '78. The setlist is deep, the performances are sharp, and "We've Got Tonight" — from the then-current album — is a highlight worth watching twice.
Then there's the medley.
So many great album cuts filled Act 1 that Barry had to find a way to fit eight more songs into Act 2 without losing momentum. The solution was a seamless medley running from "The Old Songs" through "This One's For You." What sounds effortless on stage represents an enormous amount of work behind the scenes — weaving that many songs together, keeping the energy alive through each transition, is the art of arranging. And nobody does it better than Barry.
Only a few hundred people were in that room. Now you can be too.
Enjoy,
