- Thank you. We’re gonna take a break right here for a short time.
Anyway this is a song that was out as a single, on Colombia Records.
I think it was a few weeks ago, months ago. Sold 25 copies.
I got them all myself! (before Baby Stop Crying)
- All right this is a song I wrote overseas, in a place called Corsica, of all places.
I’d had one bad night. (before One More Cup Of Coffee (Valley Below))
- Thank you, I wanna introduce you to some of the players in the band.
On the drums tonight, give him a warm hand, Ian Wallace. Bass guitar, Jerry Scheff.
Everything all right? On the keyboards, ladies and gentlemen, from Detroit, Alan Pasqua.
Ok, on lead guitar, the oldest member of this group, born in 1921, it’s a wonder he’s
still alive. Ladies and gentlemen, Billy Cross.
On the rhythm guitar a man who gave up a career to be a sports car driver, down in
Colombia, Bogota. Ladies and gentlemen, he doesn’t speak a word of English and he’s
deaf! Mr. Steve Soles! Ok, all right, on the mandolin and the violin, this young man
is only fifteen years old. He’s been with me five years. Ladies and gentlemen
David Mansfield. On the tenor saxophone, a young man who used to play with Duane Eddy,
remember Duane Eddy? Anyway, he plays on all those Phil Spector records too, back in
the sixties. That’s where you’ve heard him before. Ladies and gentlemen, the phenomenal
Steve Douglas. All right, on the backup vocals, there are three girls I couldn’t do
without, they make me sound so good. Anyway, on the right, my ex-girlfriend,
Jo Ann Harris. In the middle, my current girlfriend, Helena Springs. Helena can sing
the blues too. Anyway, on the left, my fiancÈe, Carolyn Dennis. Over from Detroit City,
on the conga drums the most amazing Miss Bobbye Hall. This is called It’s Alright Ma,
I’m Only Bleeding.
- Alright we’re gonna leave now, get out of here. Hey, I wish we could stay here all night,
that we could stay all the time, this is really a beautiful place. (….) I wrote this a
while back for one of my babies, when he was a baby. He’s not here tonight, but I wanna
play it anyway. (before Forever Young)
