The Byrds – Summerthing, Allston 1970
Summerthing, Ringer Playground, Allston, Boston, MA – July 27, 1970
Roger McGuinn (guitar, vocals)
Clarence White (guitar, vocals)
Gene Parsons (drums, harmonica, vocals)
Skip Battin (bass, vocals)
Note: this was engineer Dinky
Dawson’s first concert with the Byrds, and it turned out that due to a
defective PA part (a faulty stereo splitter), the sound was heavily distorted
at times. This nearly cost Dawson his job with the band. One can imagine how
angry McGuinn was at him.

I'm having trouble downloading this one - I get a message from freakshare saying that no file is selected.
The counter says 17 people have downloaded it already. So I don't know why it works for some people and doesn't for others. I'll re-up it and post a second link for those who encouter problems.

ciao Rockingbyrd...

zippy is working for me - thanks, RB
Nice to hear All the Things for a change. I also noticed that Clarence had his high e string tuned down for Nashville West - you can hear him bring it back up at the end. Keith-Scruggs Tuners!
I had no trouble downloading from the first link now or before. Good concert, though very similar playlist to others from this time. The sound is better than I expected after reading the caveats about Dinky Dawson--good work, RB! And thanks--it's a pleasure listening to these guys.
Hello Rocking-Byrd
Could you re-up this one please.
