(before One More Cup Of Coffee (Valley Below)). Thank you. That was called Bird On The Horizon [refering to You’re A Big Girl Now]. This is one I wrote over a year, a few years ago. I can’t remember, how this thing happened.

(before It’s Alright Ma, I’m Only Bleeding) Thank you. On the tenor saxophone tonight, former Beach Boy, Steve Douglas. On the drums, a man responsible for much of the punk rock you hear these days, from Kingston Jamaica, give him a warm round of applause, Ian Wallace. On the violin and the mandolin a young gentleman, really fast that’s what he is, ask anybody, David Mansfield, give him a hand. Out of south eastern Texas we have kind of musical outlaw the man that’s responsible for that sort of music in this group, from San Antonio, Texas, on rhythm guitar Mr. Steve Soles. On bass guitar, a man who’s played with everybody from George
Benson to The Rolling Stones, Rob Stoner. On the keyboards, from the Bahamas, Alan Pasqua. Conga drums, from Detroit,

Dye. Then my cousin Jo Ann Harris. On the left my current girlfriend Miss Helena Springs. This is called It’s Alright Ma, I’m
Only Bleeding,

(before Forever Young) Thank you. You’ve been a very appreciative audience, like playing in Chicago, before I left. We’re gonna leave you all with this tune. Hope you feel all right.

(before The Times They Are A-Changin’) Thank you. We’ll play this song now. Been playing it for almost 20 years or more now.

I am using the corrected track titles, not the ones listed on the bootleg covers. Mingus himself announces some of the
tunes with different names, but he would do that a lot, so to keep things simple I’m sticking to the most commonly used
titles of these tunes.

The original bootleg CDs had tracks 1-4 on Vol. 1, and the rest on Vol. 2. The show as presented here is not in the correct
running order. Surely, the first track played that evening was “AT-FW-YOU”, the second probably “So Long Eric.” But without
me knowing for sure, I have left the running order the same as the original 2 bootleg CDs.
