Stand By Me-this became his semi-regular closing song in 2000 before Linda Gail arrived and usually was done with Chris Farlowe. This version is without Farlowe and is the last song performed before Linda Gail made her appearance and changed things forever??? At the end of the song Johnny Scott says "We'll Meet Again-Don't Know Where-Don't Know When". Well Johnny-I'm still waiting for you!!!!!!!!
