On Wednesday, January 15, 2014, an historic concert was held at the

night at the Whiskey a Go Go exactly 50 years before. Johnny looked and
sounded great. Here is the final encore - Bob Marley's "One Love" and

Interview on "Entertainment Tonight". (Bob Dylan's Chronicles Vol. One)
Interview on "Entertainment Tonight". (Bob Dylan's Chronicles Vol. One, Quote):
"Of all the versions of my recorded songs, the Johnny Rivers one was my favorite. It was obvious that we were from the same side of town, had been read the same citations, came from the same musical family and were cut from the same cloth. When I listened to Johnny's version of "Positively 4th Street," I liked his version better than mine. I listened to it over and over again........When I heard Johnny sing my song, it was obvious that life had the same external grip on him as it did on me."
