Giving a Big Thanks to Ken G. for passing his masters over to me, so they can finally be heard.
BTW. I do tape transfers for various collectors here on Dime, so if you have some tapes that need transferred, send me a PM.

Excellent Sound Quality
This version of The Band has 3 of the original members (Rick, Levon and Garth) with the addition of Jim Weider who replaced original guitarist Robbie Robertson.
Sadly missing in this line up is the orignal piano player Richard Manuel who had passed away 6 months earlier.
As i was digging through Ken’s box of tapes i spotted this recording and i instantly knew i had a gem here.
In fact this particular concert has never surfaced anywhere in circulation.
The Band played 2 nights here at the Talkhouse. This is the first nights recording.
To be honest I didn’t know much about The Band.
I was basically hearing them for the first time while transferring the tapes.
I really enjoyed it and became an instant fan.
I did a search here on Dime and only saw a couple old torrents.
I looked over on db.etree.org and noticed that many of there shows were taped,
but hardly traded and almost none were flac’d and torrented.
Why isn’t there a flood of The Band here?
They played different set lists all the time. Not boring in the least.
They had influenced a lot of musicians through the decades,
such as The Beatles, The Grateful Dead, The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan.
Along with a countless newer bands.
Check out the samples and grab up this gem, brought to light for the first time ever.
I need help on the set list. please chime in with song titles.
I expect this show to get some attention. The Quality is Great..
