Steve Miller Band - Fly Like an Eagle

Love these Midnight Special clips. This one's really cool since it's from January 1974, over two years before Fly Like an Eagle would be released on record. It's certainly a different arrangement from what the end result would be. It's an interesting choice of songs to perform then. At this time he was still riding the success of The Joker, so I'm surprised he didn't perform another song from that album; instead, going for an unrecorded song. Maybe he really believed in the song, in which case his belief was well-justified.
