Hey gang, just a few random thoughts...I'm listening to the ABB from Watkins Glen (one of my favourite eras in the history of the band); thanks bird, hope everything is going okay for you, our prayers and thoughts are with you.This is the first time I've heard this show, and I enjoyed listening to it, especially hearing a version of Blue Sky for the first time featuring Chuck Leavell, I always loved his playing on Jessica, its an integral part of the song, but Blue Sky was meant for him too. This got me thinking about plans I heard some time back, (we're talking years now) to release a live box set, a Duane box set and perhaps a live series similar to the Dead's "Dick's Picks" series. I used to read Kirk West's updates in "Hittin' The Note" but he doesn't seem to be a regular contributor there anymore.Anyone out there shed any light on these plans, are they shelved (can't be due to lack of interest) or are there legal problems- don't you hate those:mad: holding things up. Look how long it took for the Gregg anthology...and now its out of print:confused:I'm sure there's lots of quality recordings of the band just sitting somewhere begging to be edited, pressed and sold to us eager folk, till then...keep the faith, thanks Lana and Rowland for this great site. Peace all.:cool:
