Chuck Leavell Performs 3 songs at Paste Studio, NYC

Tuesday, July 30, Chuck had a few days off before their next Stones show, and so visited NYC’s Paste Studio where he offered up a three-song performance for his own Paste session. He played “Tumbling Dice”, then “Living A Dream” by Sea Level, the jazz fusion band he became a founding member of following his tenure in the Allman Brothers Band and finally closing it with Blind Willie McTell‘s “Statesboro Blues”.

At liveforlivemusic.com, you can read more of the details of his performance as well as see the videos of him playing …

Much to our joy, many fans have contributed their videos of the great show in Philadelphia to YouTube. So here we go!

Remember, these videos can never come near to the experience and sound you have if you were there in person. But then – it’s still very good and great fun! So just enjoy! 🙂

Here’s Out Of Control:

Interesting: a pro-shot from the first 2 songs, JJF and LSTNT, taken from the soundboard, so there’s almost no audience to be heared; this is what the news agencies use for their reports…

You were there? Got some review or story to tell? Well, SEND IT TO ME! 🙂

The show starts:

The Press:

TAPinto – The Rolling Stones concert tour gives satisfaction to fans

The Morning Call  (mcall.com) – REVIEW: The Rolling Stones at Philly’s Lincoln Financial Field seems to show time is on their side
Short quote:

But all The Stones needed to assuage those doubts was to what they ultimately did: Play a show that blasted out of the gate at full bore, its energy rarely flagging over two hours of 19 of some of the best songs ever written, to finish with the band seeming to have given its all.

It was a stunning display of not only how The Rolling Stones remain The World’s Greatest Rock ‘n’ Roll Band, but of how no one else really is even very close.

Mick Jagger’s performance skills, even as he prepares to turn 76 on Friday, remain unparalleled.

Thanks for sticking with us through the rain last night Philly! We still had a great show!#stonesnofilter pic.twitter.com/TdovDONeid
