BobTalk:
-Thank you very much. That was Alan Pasqua on the organ. Steve Douglas on the tenor saxophone.
This is an old song I wrote about 15 years ago, there was a man working on the Village Voice.
Anyway, I wrote it for him. (before Ballad Of A Thin Man)
-Thank you. This is an old song too. It's called I Ain't Gonna Work On Maggie's Farm No More.
-Thank you. We're gonna take a break right here. This is a song I recorded a few years ago with The Band. You all know The Band?
Anyway, we did this on an album called Planet Waves. We used to play it sometimes. (before Going, Going, Gone)
-Thank you, this next tune I wrote in Mexico, I can't remember which place. I know it was on the train I was travelin' on. (before Se�or (Tales Of Yankee Power))
-Thank you! All right, we already played it. You really want us to play it? You really wanna hear that? That's unfortunate.
I wanna introduce the band I know you wanna know who they are. I hope we played a few songs right tonight.
Anyway, on the drums from Kingston, Jamaica, give him a warm welcome, Mr. Ian Wallace. On the bass guitar, Mr. Jerry Scheff.
He's been around a long time. You can clap harder than that! Jerry Scheff. All right on the keyboards Alan Pasqua.
On the lead guitar the brilliant, dangerous, Mr. Billy Cross. All right, on the rhythm guitar, Mr. Steven Soles from Tombstone, Arizona.
One of the ones most responsible for what they call outlaw music. On the mandolin and violin the youngest member of this particular group.
A young man, who doesn't smoke dope, go out with women or drink whiskey. That the reason�s he's so good. You can boo him or cheer him, Mr. David Mansfield.
His mama is proud. All right, on the tenor saxophone Mr. Steve Douglas. On the backup vocals tonight three beautiful young ladies.
None of them are available ha ha ha ! All right on the right, my cousin, Jo Ann Harris. On the left my fianc�e Carolyn Dennis.
And in the middle my current girlfriend, Helena Springs. All right on the conga drums from Detroit Miss Bobbye Hall. OK. (before It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding))
-Ok we're gonna have to leave right now. Getting on down the line. We gotta go down to New York. We hear they're waiting for us.
So next time we come back and play all night. All right so we'll see you later. Remember now don't let obstruction get in your way.
You can do anything. (before Forever Young)

two tracks (Just Like a Woman & Don't Think Twice) plus most of Watchtower were missing,
so I patched them in from an alternat but regretably much poorer tape.
