"While the world doesn't really need another version of Chuck Berry's chestnut "Johnny B. Goode" that closes the show, Zito, who recorded an entire 2019 tribute album to the rock and roll legend, rips into it like Johnny Winter on a tear. After almost two hours of blues rocking, it's a fitting acknowledgment to one of St. Louis' favorite sons, and likely a strong influence on Zito growing up. Like Berry, he will clearly never stop touring and if Zito's shows are even half as explosive as this one, that's a life well lived on the never-ending road".
