With guests Tut Taylor and The Spencers
The Tut Taylor Archive Reel #29 features a Kentucky Colonels live performance that was probably recorded at the Ash Grove, Santa Monica, CA, circa mid-1960s. Tut's recording does a nice job of capturing Clarence White's fine backing guitar. A nice treat is to hear the masterful fiddling of "Eight Time National Champion Fiddler" Scotty Stoneman, who is announced as a guest at this show. Some dobro is heard in the background on tracks 9-10, and may be Tut. "The Spencers" (Dave and Lou), a popular California country act in the 1960s, sing two songs (tracks 12-13) backed by the Colonels. This recording is notable for featuring a number of tunes not found on other circulating Kentucky Colonels shows.

Many thanks for this, Rockingbyrd. Have not yet had the chance to listen to it, but it does look interesting.
Dear Rockingbyrd:
I am truly sorry you will be removing your blog. I would have participated more often, but I live in a very rural area with only very poor dialup internet which always makes it difficult for me to download anything large. I've always had to go into town to do anything heavy on the internet. I want to express my personal thanks for all the many hours of great music you have shared. I would have participated more if I had been able to!
I hope that you will consider posting the joint Byrds-Flying Burrito Brothers concert from 1969 as one of your last two posts. That is one that I would really like to have!
Anyway, thanks again for all you have done for us Byrds fans!
Sincerely, MisterBill593
