Love the NRPS. I used to see them opening for the Grateful Dead when I lived in California.
Thanks!

Nice sounding show with the Commander sitting in for a set and elevating the sound a bit in the process. What a great 'back door' way to get some NRPS, ie. thru the Skippy connection. Everyone is in pretty good voice here, even Mr. Battin when he gets a lead. David Nelson continues to carry on with NRPS as well as his 'own' band and I believe Buddy Cage is along too. Marmaduke Dawson died a few months ago, I believe of emphysema.
