Happy 52nd young lady !

Jung,

you’re welcome.

you realize that Petty didn’t make it right ?

He passed a few years ago.  No Last Dance with Mary Jane.  (:

I did not know Ravi Shankar performed.

Did i see Ken Kesey’s Magic Bus or a good likeness at the 9:00 minute mark?

It’s hard to say.

[Tom Fones]

I think i agree with McCartney here.

Keep it lean and mean and let the vocals and core instruments shine through.

Evidently Lennon DIDN’T agree. Maybe it was time to go on separately.

The great blessing was All Thing Must Pass.  IMHO.

What are others thinking.

I had seen this just recently.

I think that girl’s face has been popping up on youtube thumbnails.

I did not know it was a benefit concert.

I would like to have seen David Crosby subbing for Neil Young in Buffalo Springfield.

Well there’s always more.

Thanks Jung

[Tom Fones]

Thanks Joseph,

Is there any chance that this concert is at The Fox Theatre – where Buffet recorded his 1st live album a loooong time ago?  Just asking.

[Tom Fones]

Jung, Jacki & The Mounties.

What a photo op! 🙂

Keep us informed.

[Tom Fones]

Howard – nice research.

When did it take off?

After The Ed Sullivan show(s) in early ’64 ?

[Tom Fones]

Has anyone ever taken the train all the way across?

It’s on my list.

Has anyone seen “Festival Express” ?

Welcome.

The music videos and photos of places they have been will keep you entertained for hours. 🙂

In My Humble Opinion,

The Beatles were the premier pop ensemble – at the time – as soon as they were

recording their own material.

I am not sure what album that was but it was early.

I feel that they stayed on the crest of a growing wave as long as they were together as a band.

They improved and the genre grew and improved.

I think they could have retired as a foursome any time and been regarded as the best

at that time.

But i think to be regarded as the best band of the sixties they needed to stay together throughout the sixties.

Just my two cents.  🙂

I know what you mean Jung.

I know the Smithsonian as well as i do because relatives would come visiting

in the summer-time.  I have an update about The Sound of Music in Austria

but i won’t burden the twins with it for a couple of weeks.

[Tom Fones]

Maybe that’s why they took up distance running.

Me & Leslie West would have knocked each other into the 1st row.

 

Actually he really slimmed down – but he passed recently.  (:

Hi Jung,

there just aren’t any bad choices.

But their harmonies knock me out.

My best numbers are when the instrumentation doesn’t overwhelm the voices.

Cheers.

[Tom Fones]

I didn’t receive it until after Christmas.

I am enjoying this album more and more.

Cheers
