I was unable to download this concert using the link provided by the Byrdmaniax list, and was pleased to see that you had uploaded it for us old faithfuls that keep checking your lists for anything we might have forgotten. You are a very generous guy/gal, whoever you are, to provide one more concert before you go, plus all these restored links, a couple of which I've used myself. This is a fascinating concert due to the presence of John Guerin and the absence of Gene Parsons. Guerin never quite fit into the Byrds sound, and Gene Parsons' dismissal meant not only the loss of a drummer the band was used to but also the major harmony singer for the group. But Clarence White shines in this concert, and Skip Battin, the next to go, played pretty well, considering he had not yet jelled with the new drummer. Thanks for this final gift, Rockingbyrd, and once again my heartfelt thanks for all the fine music you have so selflessly provided.
Thanks again Rockingbyrd - much appreciated.
