Don’t forget the late, great Lowell George. One of my cherished old cassettes was from a show where Raitt and George were pretty well toasted. To the point they didn’t know what town they were in.
But when they started playing, it was magic. "Willin’ and "Angel from Montgomery" stand out.
I sent the tape to a girlfriend, never to see it again. But thanks to a peer to peer sharing service that won’t be named, I found it again.
Every now and then when I get in that frame of mind, I play it again, digitally though ancient stereo speakers.
