The Knack - "My Sharona" - Bremen, 1980

[@KillerKev1961]

Saw them for the first time in L.A. Whiskey 1976. Bruce Gary was one of the fastest drummers out there and impeccably well timed. Great band, RIP Bruce and Doug.

[@jacksnipe1051]

R.I.P. Doug Fieger and Bruce Gary.

[@THESTEVESBAND]

Awesome! The Guitar Solo is amazing!..Berton Averre , one of the best guitar players of all the time ! ...and all the band...Rock On !!!

[@pizzagirl597]

Watching Bruce go crazy on the drums is awesome. Amazing chops. He's one of the greats. ❤

[@golden.lights.twinkle2329]

The Berton Averre guitar solo is epic 2:32

Wow, that must have been amazing! They were an amazing band!!

[@davidricardoblas751]

Perfection!

[@bluepool6969]

I've never heard a band sound as close to their recorded music as The Knack. I read somewhere that it was simply because they recorded the songs the exact same way they had been performing them in the clubs. It's great to see a band that meets/exceeds your expectations.

[@gregoryyoung8819]

I read that the studio producer didn't have that much to do. The Knack was so well prepared and rehearsed, all he had to do was hit the record button.

[@DavidSmith-xr8js]

I was 15 when this song came out. I feel bad for todays kids with the crap they have to listen to. This song blew my socks off!

[@007artimus]

BG was a savage drummer

Awesome song 🎶❤️❤️

[@soulsin97]

I saw this band in the summer of 1987 at the catalyst in Santa Cruz Northern California!! And by the way the original lineup was at the catalyst at that time!!! Rest in peace Bruce and the lead singer!

The bassist is in the Witness Protection Program, apparently.

[@rothsuede]

Best all- time lead ever and the camera man screws it up.

[@michaelmattis1586]

Director. He might have been the boyfriend of the drummer with all the camera time during the lead guitar solo. Just a theory.

[@scottgould6590]

Maybe they did that on purpose, so as not to give away the guitar playing of the solo to others. They wanted to protect it at some level.

[@pendragonU]

Cameramen know what they're doing. It was the lead production, editing at the broadcast control room who wasn't listening, nor even looking

[@Reespeck4all]

Make sure you hear it with the guitar riffs, because their timing is always the same as the original recording. If you listen to this for the first time, you'll see what you missed in the 70's. Although this song hit it big in very early 1980, but the 70's had it all music wise. Ask your Momma. Love to all of you. Nothing but good health and happiness.(3 more great riffs, Come and get your love( with the Native Dance in the beginning), Smoke on the Water, Indian reservation(Paul Revere and the Raiders)

[@8angst8]

Berton Averre on guitar!

[@kiss-acdc]

The Knack ............... PERÚ !

[@mihbtoeri8825]

ma ma ma my sheronaaa aaa ww

[@VirginiaBeach742]

What a great live tune. They could have turned Fieger's guitar up, especially during the solo. Flawless performance. Underrated band. Great lead guitar.

[@class3times]

I'm just here to watch Bruce Gary beat the sh!t out of those drums!

[@GOGO-fx9ip]

Same phenomenal drummer

[@binxbolling]

The singer's brother is a high-powered elite lawyer.

[@shovelheadseven]

Doug looks like a cross of Keith Moon mixed with Paul Simon.

[@jasonpp1973]

Also a bit of Pete Townshend.

[@pendragonU]

​@@jasonpp1973without Townsend's Cyrano like NOSE

[@interestedlen8823]

Another cameraman who didn't know who was playing what, so missed most of Berton's Dickie Betts inspired break. Great performance though.

[@pendragonU]

Betts must have been inspired in his turn by some Scotsman's piper, because parts of those progressions are from Scottish traditional pieces for bagpipes.

[@evaannavonbehne8605]

No kidding about the camera.

Did you see Sharona bouncing in the audience? If not look again

[@theshaker6458]

Yes

[@ginjirou1919]

何故、リードギターの顔が出ない？

[@Dan-zq5wt]

The guitar solo is really tasty. Burton Averre? Sounds like a cross between Dickie Betts and Jimmy Page.

[@charliecarpenter-o3p]

the song more honestly ... sexually speaking....cheerful you can write to a girlfriend...i always thought of Doug Fieger looked like someone and after doing the swirling,,, walk to the guitarist from the who....besides having a look something Beatles.....this song will be at my funeral
