About The Show:

This was part of a special series of shows on the occassion of the closing of the Jabberwocky. This night was a double bill with Jorma Kaukonen. Roger opened for both the early and late shows. Performers on other nights included John Hammond, Junior Wells, James Brown, John Cale. The Jab only held 200-250 people so it operated at a huge loss for these special appearances.
