Top Five Live Versions of TCYR's Gonna Breakdown
On today’s #ThrowbackThursday, DJ Caterina counts down the TOP 5 live versions of “Gonna Breakdown” by Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers on YouTube. Why? Because…TOMMY CONWELL AND THE YOUNG RUMBLERS PLAY THIS SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19!!!
Phew. Got that out of my system.
HONORABLE MENTION: Gonna Breakdown - Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers at the Ambler Music Festival, 6/14/14.
What would a Tommy-Conwell-guitar-solo™ be without seeing Tommy precariously perched from a very high point on the concert stage? Exactly.
===== ===== =====
#5. Gonna Breakdown – Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers, Nov 6, 2010.
The audience sing-along, a tight band and great concert energy at the now-gone Blockley Pourhouse.
===== ===== =====
#4. Gonna Breakdown - Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers at the Electric Factory in Philadelphia, November 23, 2012.
What a great venue. What a great night of music. Tommy’s vocals are amazing. EVERYTHING IS AMAZING! And I was there!
===== ===== =====
#3. Gonna Breakdown - Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers at the Bay Center in Dewey Beach, Delaware, Aug. 21, 2010.
This concert was a rehearsal (of sorts) for TCYR’s “reunion” Philadelphia concert (see #5) at the Blockley three months later.
===== ===== =====
#2. Gonna Breakdown - Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers in Italy, 1989.
It’s the third month of 1989 and this is the best band on tour in Europe. What band am I talking about? Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers, that’s who. And listen for Chris Day’s soaring background vocals!
Other dates in Europe:
- 03 MAR 1989 :::: Lund, Sweden – Mejeriet
- 06 MAR 1989 :::: Hamburg, Germany - Grosse Freiheit
- 10 MAR 1989 :::: Amsterdam, Netherlands – The Paradiso
===== ===== =====
#1. Gonna Breakdown - Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers at the Pennsylvania State Fair in Bensalem, PA, Memorial Day 1989.
The 80s. Enough said.
