Miami 2017(Seen the lights go out on Broadway) live from the Songs in the Attic album! The energy of this song recorded to a sold out Madison square Garden crowd will blow you away!!

I've always liked You May Be Right,we played that in just about every band that I played in since it came out and it always filled the dance floor. It was a good fast song to play,real fun and I liked the harmonies.

might be cliche to say it, but 'Piano Man' is a maudlin masterpiece. Compelling in the desolation of the lyrical content as contrasted by a fairly vibrant arrangement.

Only The Good Die Young. Friends of mine used to play this and it brings back great memories of dancing and laughing at the pub

Another vote for "Only the Good Die Young" -- decent lounge/pop song that works even if you don't have a keyboard player.

Allentown for me, I'm not a big fan, but this song has some particularly fine memories for me.

The Downeaster Alexa.

Love that song. Fun song to play to since it translates well to guitar.

Also love Captain Jack
