Gene Parsons (drums, banjo, vocals)

Although not mentioned by the file provider, this seems to be one of the joint Byrds / Flying Burrito Brothers concerts. Listen closely to tracks 4, 5 and 6 from set 2.

The Flying Burrito Brothers were:

Chris Hillman, Michael Clarke, Sneaky Pete Kleinow, Bernie Leadon, Rick Roberts.

The last track sounds so different, it probably originates from another concert.
