ljs_54 Notes: Don't remember who I got this from but I believe it was a weed on the Cipollina Yahoo group. It was originally transferred and seeded there by Dave Tamarkin. I cleaned it up a bit in Cool Edit, raised the volume, re-tracked it in CDWAV, and FLAC'ed it.


From Dave T:

Dave mentioned that this wasn't really billed as Nick Gravenites & Friends, even though that's the way they're introduced for the 2nd set, but more like Nick Gravenites & John Cipollina.

He said for those wondering, Alex Ligertwood is not on this show, as Ligertwood didn't hook up with Cip until the 80's with Sounds of San Francisco.

Although not introduced by Nick in the outro, Roger Troy plays bass and provides added vocals.

The sets were short as they were opening for Sam & Dave.

Dave actually made the recording with Cip's ok.

The term "Thunder & Lightning" was still a couple of years away from being used.
