Set List Archive -> 1978 Set Lists



With a year of Successful touring under Jimmy and the band’s belt, it didn’t look like things could get any better: But they did. With another change on Guitar, adding Barry Chance to the lineup and picking up Deborah McColl to add a female voice to the band, a great band just got better. This band flat-out rocked, as everyone knows with the live document from August “You Had to be There.” Again a few non album songs popped up, this time being “Morris’ Nightmare,” which was played all year, and “Perrier Blues,” which apparently was only played in August.
