Thats me, Marge Raymond on the background vocals along with Susan Collins. We were a group called SuMagNa we went on to sing with ELO and many other groups on recordings as well as touring. Wow, what a blast from the past!! So great and such fun with the NRPS. What a great bunch of talented musicians. So great to see this. Thank you
Wow!! Cool to see you here, Marge!!
+Marge Raymond what animates you and Sumagna today??
SuMagNa went on to record with ELO Face the Music Album. Huge hit Evil Women. I was signed to RCA after SuMagNa with a band called Flame. We recorded 2 albums. I have many decades of music. I constantly perform with the Generation Gap and other bands every weekend in NYC. Im a featured artist in newly released book called Lost Rockers. Im always singing.
good job Marge, keep on singing like a bird you are...
Thank you!!
RIP "Marmaduke" Dawson. One of the best.
I went to a Hells Angels party down on Spring Street NYC back in the day and there was a guy playing pedal steel on stage with the band and it was Buddy cage and I talked to him for a while what a cool guy.
I met him once at an annual Dead Tribute picnic in NJ. Me and a few friends did an opening acoustic set for the headliner he was playing with. Nice guy.
@@MichaelHattem was it Blue Highways?
Those 81 parties rocked.
I
What do cage was one of the greatest pedal steel guitar players! The whole band were very talented and really nice guys! It was a great tour
RIP Buddy you were the best along with this Band !!
💐
Buddy Cage, one of the greatest pedal steel guitar players in the world. Rest in peace
@@Starz723 Amen to that
Saw these guys at the Blue Note club in Boulder CO. in 1976. Best small venue concert I was ever at. During intermission they came out to the audience and sat at the bar drinking a few beers. I was lucky enough to talk to Spencer briefly but he was just a regular guy and didn't exude "star" in the least.
this was the Classic lineup best they had got me thru the early 70's so many special shows such a treat to watch again thanks
A fun band live and on album. Love them.
Jeez, I remember the days when a good country bar band, which was not hard to find, had a damn good steel guitar!
Holy crap! I was half way thru Navy boot camp when they played yhis show... Great version of Henry, one my favorites...
The early 70's lineup was the classic lineup, with Dave Torbert on bass and vocals!
I've got Panama Red vinyl. Yup. I cherish it. I play it.
Thought nobody my age ever even heard of them I'm 63 by the way wrong I guess
@@debbieduplessis2337 They were very popular when we were teens though. Grin. Cheers!
Panama Red such great album. Takes me back to some very good times.
I saw these guys at the Family Dog on the Great Highway. Jerry played petal steel !!!
I was on leave form nam !
total respect, my friend. Thank you.
Did a lot of dancing during those spring days at college in upstate NY to this album and group, loved these guys.
Phil Henningsen I find it hard to stay still when NRPS comes on. Always a toe-tappin time!
I was actually at this show...old Jersey Boy...such fun times...
I was there in the audience that night. Amazing show!
Lighters,,,no cell phones
Love it
This is great, love Skip Battin in there as well. He brings his own thing into the band. So does Dave Nelson. Not sure why anyone would complain, less'n they just don't get it.
Gotta Love them Hippies :)
Awesome, I had a bunch of New Riders 8tracks and albums back in the 70's, Oh What a Mighty Time was one of my favorite albums and they did purt near the whole album here, too bad Sly couldn't guest on Oh What a Mighty Time, still great
RIP John. You were one of kind.
just so good to hear and see them on video. thanks!!
Excelente banda. Powerglide y panama Red dos long plays excelentes.
Marmaduke was a great yodeller! RIP.
Rip Buddy
Seeing Marmaduke bust into Instant Armadillo Blues just brought tears to my eyes
I watch this every time I recommend it, which is about 6-7 times a year. Listen to Skip Battin 'Skip' , and watch his Byrds live Filmore East solo.
Thank You so Very Much , Thumbs Up and Shared :) QC
I'm not up to date with NRPS change of personnel, I can always tell without an intro who's playing, Skip Batten fits like a glove. I love his work with Rodger McGuinn, Gram Parsons and the late Clarence LeBlanc White.
Saw this band in Gardiner, MT in the summer of 1979. North Entrance to Yellowstone and some great acts there that year. What a blast.
THANKFUL ...
I was here!!! Plenty of PotHeads at this show.. Nobody complained about the Smoke.. Ah, them good old daze..
Glendale Train kicked ass. During Cage's solo, Dryden is seriously smokin' the snare and toms.
I was there in the 4th row, GREAT SHOW!!
I saw a triple bill at the Capitol, probably 1978. The New Riders headlined, with Roger McGuinn and Gene Clark warming up, and opening was Kinderhook Creek. NRPS played for nearly 5 hours straight. At the end Marmaduke said they had run out of songs. What a night!
Jeff K I remember that show Jeff, I had just got my license and 71 Chevelle. NRPS was my favorite and Kinderhook Creek was a Jersey country rock band we went to see nearly every weekend. Great memories!
Kinderhook Creek - wow THAT brings back memories. Short dude playing "Amie" on an Ovation guitar. Jersey bars rocked! Art Stock's Playpen I think it was, not sure.
@@richardglickman9206 Kinderhook (they dropped the Creek cuz thats what everybody called them anyway, I guess.) is still gigging. I saw them do a great show at the park in Woodbridge last summer!
@@donnieblue1007dm Kinderhook wow. Brings back memories of Northern NJ in the 70's
Thank you
🌠
The world is a better place because of you guys
I]m blowin' away!
I Love This.
When I was very little I idolized Nelson, '65 or so, he once told me " awe, go jump out the window" so I did from second story land in a rhododendron bush, mom almost killed him!
💫
Gone but never forgotten
Guitar gods are dime a dozen -- but there's only one steel guitar god.
+johannesgrimm Ol' Buddy has a unique style . . He was and still is a rockin' steeler . .
johannesgrimm! Absolutely!! There is only one Buddy Cage. He plays with such feeling. He can make you cry with Last Lonely Eagle, boogie your ass off on She's No Angel, etc. A true legend. Started going to see NRPS when I was 15. In my opinion, the most under-rated band ever - great musicians - great songs - always a great time with NRPS!!
Ralph Mooney?
Maximus Wolfe Sneaky Pete Kleinow, Al Perkins.
Buddy Cage had nothing but respect for the players who were considered "steel guitar gods" back in the day, like Buddy Emmons, Buddy Charleton and Curly Chalker. Especially Charleton, whom he always cited as a major influence. If you listen to some Texas Troubadours from the early 1960s, it becomes clear where Buddy Cage's style came from.
Nothing else to say but WOW
Sweet!!!!!!!!
Gold
Love
I was there :-)
CD Pre-Orders now available for upcoming release of Thanksgiving In New York City 11/23/72 in NRPS Store at stores.portmerch.com/newridersofthepurplesage/
RIP
Buddy
Yay
That's the stuff people.
🌙💥🌎
RIP Buddy Cage
named the old wagon "White Horse Mescalido" after the song!
Was probably at that show, but things were a little bit blurry back then!
saw them in Vegas in 75, Skip Battin from Byrds fame?
Skip going even further back with Gary Paxton 1959. It was I, Skip and Flip here on youtube
I am looking for info on a (mint condition) album I found at a SF flea market, John Dawson - Guitar and Autoharp ( R4RM-0738/9) pressed in 1964 by RCA Victor Custom Records. It was recorded by Forrest Boothe who was an employee of William Palmer Films in Palo Alto, CA. This record seems to be completely unknown by NRPS fans. It's unique apparently, never commercially released, includes original Dawson songs and folk music covers including two Dylan songs.
Ike Carumba great find, man
I believe Marge Raymond was also in a group called Flame , if it,s the same M. Raymond. Been out to see the N.R.P.S. quite a few times myself.
them new rider boys aren't too bad, but that girl back- up section really puts them over.
It's a SERIOUS pedal steeler who brings TWO doubleneck pedal steels onstage!
Now THAT'S a fact! Buddy was that dude!
Instant Armadillo Blues

was a great band that originated in Cincinnati Ohio.
NO dummy they grew up in Forest Park OH. Played many gigs in Newport KY
you are right, I apologise. It was Pure Pairie League I was thinking of.
Excellent...and i like the one at 44:38 :)
OP, fyi, your timeline is a bit off.
😁
God bless Henry
Marmaduke !!
SHAEF ARE YOU OUT THERE .. , THIS ONES FOR YOU BABY , GREAT CONCERT ,. ..
This is just after Skip Battin replaced David Torbert.
☮️🇺🇦🪐✨🌏
😁
✌🏽

I was there. Disappointed that Dave Torbert wasn't on bass....
Replaced by Skip Batten. Not only was Dave great on the bass but a damned decent singer as well....check out Hello Mary Lou where he does the vocals....
@@wakeupcall49 You can see him singing Mary Lou live here on German TV. ua-cam.com/video/MZWw87UgrwI/v-deo.html He was great with Kingfish and sang on some of their best sings.

Just country music.
I am happy for those who have great memories about this concert, but the opposition to this genre of music was what triggered the Punk and New Wave movement. , that was the year that Patti Smith recorded her first album and a new era began which buried the NRPS, Grateful dead, Hot Tuna and that genre
That would be me then. Pretty sure it was August 1973, I went to see my favorite band The New Riders of the Purple Sage! I was 13 years old and it was my very first "Rock" concert. I had been listening to NRPS since their debut album so, I was a little bit late "turning on" to this genre, that I would say was peaking right about then. Working Man's Dead, American Beauty and Europe 72 were among my favorite records then and we had a great little radio station near Chicago out of Elgin, WJKL, "The Fox Radio" that played lots of Folk, Bluegrass, Country Rock, and stuff like that. To be honest, NRPS never got much radio play. Neither did Poco, Pure Prariie League , Flying Burrito Bros. The Dead got some but it was usually the same couple of tunes, Bertha, Not Fade Away. So, we bought the records and eight tracks to listen to our favorite music and I was totally pumped to see the New Riders for my very first show. Auditorium Theater in Chicago, I'm standing in line checking out the crowd, all dressed up in really fancily embroidered Western shirts, Tony Lama cowboy boots, Stetson Cowboy Hats. big-ass belt buckles I mean, the ENTIRE crowd, except for me. I was too young to be able to afford that stuff. Everyone's finally seated and the warm up band comes on. They were wearing high heel platform shoes, tons of make up, big crazy hair-dos, sincerely, looking like something that just stepped off a spaceship. I looked around at the crowd. We were stunned and silent. When Mott the Hoople started playing, the reaction barely changed. Mouths wide open while Mott ripped through some music that I honestly had difficulty understanding. I only remember one song, Angeline (Classic). Then NRPS came out, opened with She's No Angel, and everything was fine again. I now realize I was witness to the Evolution of Popular Music. I loved NRPS and the Dead and all those bands for the rest of my life but Lou Reed, New York Dolls, MC5, and other Proto-Punk had already been going on for several years and it was a reaction to the disaffection that many had for American Policies at that time. When record companies find something that really sells and it becomes "commercial" is what causes the demise of many of the originators of that particular type of music. Same thing happened to the original "New Wave" of bands that came over in the Second British Invasion of the Mid-Seventies. They achieved some modest success, got some radio play until record companies commercialized it. Still love Elvis Costello, Graham Parker, Roxy Music, Kinks. In the Early Seventies, New Wave, Punk, Glam Rock were already coming when Country Rock was peaking. It was truly awesome to be a teenager for the entire Seventies. So much to choose from. "Outlaw" Country Rock did not commit suicide. It was killed by the commercial success of the Eagles, The Out Laws, Willie Nelson, Jackson Brown and ironically Neil Young's Harvest. It's similar to how The Allman Brothers killed "Blues Rock" with the success of Brothers and Sisters. Sorry for the long and boring story but I felt your comment needed clarification. Besides, authentic Punk and the original Second British "Wave" is still among the best shit in rock history. Funny thing, when I stopped listening to radio in the Eighties and lost or used up all my records and eight tracks, It made me sad to think that I'd never hear most of my favorite tunes again. I'm very grateful for You tube. It's fantastic to be able to listen to almost anything and unbelievably, actually see concerts that I attended over forty years ago! Incredible.!!! P.S. If you like Hot Tuna you should love The Airplane's, Thirty Seconds over Winter Land and Starship's, Dragon Fly and Red Octopus.
Didn't 'bury' bands like NRPS or the Dead anymore than rock and roll buried jazz.
Victor Morgado your kinda explaining what amounts to the first "alternative bands".....
Wrong!
Thank goodness it was buried. These guys and the Dead are terrible. No one can sing and the musicianship is primitive.
Really loved the band until their live performances really began to suffer as their substance abuse increased. No excuse for performing for pay and not being able to sing on key. Some of their recorded performances were truly bad with the exception of Buddy who always seemed to take his responsibility to his fans seriously. Listen to the ‘72 live show with Dave Torberg on bass and singing. Now that was a professional sounding band. Self titled and Powerglide were two of finest country rock albums of the 70’s. Try and get the steel guitar from Dont Need No Doctor out of your head after listening a couple of times!
Dave Torbert
Where was the great Dave Torbert? It's a buzzkill w/out him; Buddy can't even make up the slack. Dave Nelson: history's most worthless member of a good band, except for Danny Federici & someone else I can't recall. But sincere thanks for posting.
+Bob Laughlin If you are going to Bitch about Danny, Bruce is really all you need! The E Street Band was thrown in for free.
That's a hell of stupid ass comment, Bob!!! Buddy Cage, albeit, we went our separate ways....is STILL the bad ass of country rock Pedal Steel Guitar! David Nelson, holds his own AWESOMELY.
+Bob Laughlin what?? your not serious.....maybe nelson was stoned for this show but I can assure you, he's no slouch...who is keeping new riders alive today???....b.t.w. The Bruce Springsteen sound is organ driven...... I'd have to say that federeech is pretty tight!!
@@keithgorgas6201 I concur. He still thrives and writes. Carrying on the show. WTF he ever do to you BOB. You look in the dictionary for asshole there is a picture of you.
Torbert was a better singer than Battin but the rest of the were exceptionally talented. BTW Battin's was top notch too!
I don’t like it at all! Scares scares me I don’t like being scared anymore with masks!
Awful vocals
