Comment:
Alternate audience recording to the version I posted in 2012 http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=95244.
Longer Intro. Sound is not as clean but less audience up front noise.

A slightly differently constituted version of the RCO All-Stars (without Dr. John, Paul Butterfield, Booker T. and Fred Carter Jr. but adding the Cate Brothers who later toured with the reformed Band in the 80's) played some dates in Japan in June 1978. Very good audience recording with a rare appearance by Bobby Charles performing Down South In New Orleans.
