Here's a link to a video from my band's open air gig about 100 yards from my house in a lakefront park bordering Lake Simcoe in Ontario.
The boys were playing around with a chord progression, and our singer Chris suddenly started singing Stand By Me... and we liked it! I hope you do too.
Guitar player Dave came up with the riff and Steve plays a soulful lead that ties it all together.
