This previously uncirculated recording comes to us from the "Anthony1" archives via JL member "Damien" and is the first in a series of uncirculated recordings to be shared.
Up until now we only had shaky you tube video and audio for one of the best early birds pre-show mini sets of the WB tour. Highlights include a rare playing of "Maria's Bed" (not played since the Seeger Sessions tour) and an impromptu playing of "In Dreams" to a request for "California Blue".
We also get a touching "Surprise Surprise", the you can never have enough versions of it, "Growin' Up" and a wonderful rendition of "This Hard Land".
Unfortunately, due to a catastrophic equipment failure the full show remains un-circulated, but what we are left with is an exceptional recording of an exceptional mini-set.
Big thanks to Anthony1 and Damien for supplying such a beautiful recording for all of us to enjoy�stay tuned!
