Coverinfo

Bruce performed the song only once:
 
One of the first songs the Castiles learnt to play and quite for sure included in their first shows 1965-1967.
 
 
2008-08-24 Sprint Center, Kansas City, MO 
 
Final official show of the Magic tour. The Shirelles' "Boys" was sung by Max, probably because the song was also covered by the Beatles and sung by Ringo Starr.
