            Hey, Mike, that was actually a cover by a fellow named Sean Mann.

              In the Stevie clip I heard hints of a few songs that hadn’t been written yet, ie. “Are You Gonna Go My Way” and ” Smells Like Teen Spirit”.
              What a magician he was.

                Oh snap! The tats, watch and lack of rings should have been a hint. “I Won’t Get Fooled Again!” at least till next time…🙄
