Hayes demonstrates his versatility by getting \"Shaft\" out of the way right off the bat and alternating between originals and covers of a wide range of tunes, including \"Light My Fire,\" \"Never Can Say Goodbye,\" \"Rock Me Baby,\" \"Stormy Monday Blues,\" \"Feelin' Alright,\" and \"It's Too Late\" (yes, the Carole King song). Often these are linked together, of course, by Hayes' brotherly raps; for Bill Withers' \"Ain't No Sunshine,\" he tests the limits, stretching the tune just past the ten-minute mark. ~ Richie Unterberger","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45290522542367,"sku":"025218880428","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/d8f2711755122c43b6cfa9c356c746de.jpg?v=1777664088","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/live-at-the-sahara-tahoe","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
