Note | This is a surprisingly nice-sounding show. Only four cuts feature Steve performing one of his songs ("City of New Orleans"), one by Prine ("Donald & Lydia"), one by Hank Williams ("Mind Your Own Business"), and one by Billy Joe Shaver ("Hard to Be a Christian Soldier" -- which sounds suspiciously like the prototype for Goodman and Prine's "You Don't Even Call Me by My Name"). David Bromberg plays mandolin in Steve's band (which was put together at the last minute for this festival) and has a short solo break during the Williams song. Also featured on this disc and show is Bromberg for four cuts, The Calvary Gospel Group for four songs, and Happy and Arty Traum for one song, the uplifting "Cocaine Gonna Kill My Honey Dead". (I wish there were more of these guys on here -- they're great.) The sequencing is out of order on here (Bromberg closes the festival but is the first artist to appear on the disc); all-in-all, a great show to own. |
