- Live at the Palomino Club, North Hollywood on 19 Feb 1987. In the Spring of 1987, The Graffiti Band performed with Taj Mahal at the Palomino Club in Hollywood. At this show, George Harrison, Bob Dylan and John Fogerty rose from the audience to join Davis and Taj Mahal in an unrehearsed set which included Fogerty's "Proud Mary" (played live for the 1st time since CCR per Bob Dylan's request), Dylan's "Watching the River Flow" , and other classic rock n roll including "Blue Suede Shoes", "Peggy Sue", "Honey Don't", "Matchbox", and "Gone, Gone, Gone". This is Part 1. Bootleg cds/VHS/DVDs exist, but no official recordings were made as this was not a formal concert, and not publicized.
LINEUP:
George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Mark Shark, , Bobby Tsukamoto, Gary Ray, John Fogerty Jesse Ed Davis, & Taj Mahal

I was actually there. Tickets for Taj were sold out for the first set, so we slept in the car waiting for second set because there were some tickets. I am not even sure these guys played for the first set, as I doubt anyone would have left. We walked in past the bar and the guy with me said 'That's Dylan'. We didn't even recognize the other guys until they got up on stage. Sat down at a picnic table and drank Bud long necks and watched it happen. It took them a while to coax Dylan up to the stage as he was just hanging at the bar.
Kismet, awesome.
The world grew less interesting and bright when George left the planet.
Very interesting... A friend of mine and I were announcers on a popular L.A. radio station but this is the first we've ever HEARD of this!!! We were often at the Pal, but this event escaped even a mention in the local rumor mill until this video, some 47 years later!!!! Thanks for posting!!!!
On the night of February 19, 1987, Taj Mahal and the Graffiti Band-featuring Jesse Ed Davis on guitar-were performing at the little ol' Palomino Club in North Hollywood. In the audience were George Harrison, Bob Dylan and John Fogerty, all of whom-you guessed it-found their way onstage as surprise guests.
The Pal had a video camera mounted on the bar by the spotlight. It was used for the CCTV system and projected to the monitors mounted on the patio so people seated out there could see the show. In places it was the only way to see what was going on on the stage. Nobody manned that camera. The other videos of this show are from that camera. This video however was shot by a patron who brought in his own camcorder. Lucky us that this even exists !
This is the club I did my first gig Sober on march 15 1983 with Etta James. Bonnie Bramlett tower of power horns I was Drumming. Fred Beckmeir Bass Leo Nocentelli guitar cant remember the keyboard player-- my name is John BEEDO Dzubak That gig I got a patt on the back from the whole Band-- you kicked us off the stage tonight Beedo-- 36 yrs Later today still Sober.. Beedo
Wow! A long sober life!! Congratulations
Where you living John? I was a regular there back in the day... live in Newport Beach, Ca
Jesse Ed Davis, one of the best guitarists in RNR, ever!
LONG LIVE GEORGE HARRISON!
Taj has a way of laying it out there that is totally, 100% his own.
My older brother gave me the album with Fishin' blues when I was
still a kid. I played it until it wouldn't.
That voice and phrasing is beyond imitation.
I'm going to move out to the country baby. Goina paint my mail box blue.
I was there ... the next day!!! Damn, damn, damn. I flew all the way from Belgium to be in LA and then missed this by an inch. The next day I was at the Palomino Club to see Tim Scott as I was invited by his recordcompany to check him out. It is when I went to the gents that another guy told mme about what happpened the night before
John Bollenberg I have you beat. I WAS there that night. With my wife who was 9 months pregnant. We had to LEAVE after the first set (before Harrison, Dylan, Fogerty, etc. got onstage and played!! ) If you read the article in the next-day's Herald Examiner, they mention how sorry the people who left early were going to be! That would be us.
George and Bob: "Fogerty, if you don't get back to singing Creedence stuff NOW, the whole world's gonna remember 'Proud Mary' as Ike and Tina Turner's song!"
Ah LA! I had the fortune to see Clapton in concert at the 'Fabulous Forum'. During the encore, from our birds' eye view, we noticed an extra musician onstage playing guitar. There were binoculars to hand, and we all discussed with excitement that it was George Harrison singing and playing. It was still before he embarked upon the Japanese tour with Clapton and his band doing his own show. A very magical moment. I am completely certain (time?) they played 'Badge'. Special timeless moment!
Hardcore Rock n Roll by legendary musicians!
this is incredible, imagine just hangin there, and BAM! history is hapnin.. this would be on my bucket list- next lifetime
Harrison, Dylan, Fogerty, Mark Shark, Bobby Tsukamoto, Gary Ray, Davis and Taj Mahal-playing Carl Perkins' "Matchbox"(which the Beatles recorded in 1964). Harrison sings a few verses and plays a Chuck Berry-style guitar solo.
Other songs that night include: "Knock on Wood" (Fogerty), "In the Midnight Hour" (Fogerty), "Honey Don't"(Harrison), "Blue Suede Shoes"(Fogerty/Harrison), "Watching the River Flow" (Harrison), "Proud Mary" (Fogerty), "Johnny B. Goode" (Taj Mahal) and a whole lot more. Decent versions of "Peggy Sue"and "Dizzy Miss Lizzy" are in there somewhere.
I am so thankful that I found this here on youtube. The Palomino club was an amazing place! To bad it is gone... :o(
If anything this demonstrates how challenging it is to play anything well straight off-the-cuff with no rehearsals. I've played hundreds of "blues jams" that sounded as tight as this, and I would have LOVED to be playing the drums when this happened. It's the pure stuff.
Love George Harrison's vocal. He obviously listened to Carl Perkins.
There is an amazing video here on YT of George playing with Carl Perkins. They became close friends. George sang at his funeral.
I love how Taj brings MATCHBOX all the way back home and inserts lyrics from Blind Lemon Jefferson in the song.
I wish the entire show had been filmed and on UA-cam.
So great to see My Sweet Nelson & Dylan in there!
Thanx! Two men, Carl Perkins and George Harrison with two great souls. Last night at my gig I played one of my favourites, Bobbin' The Blues.
Perkins was one of Georges first, if not the first of his, guitar idols growing up. At one point before he was famous and the Beatles were called The Silver Beatles, Georges stage name was Carl Harrison... after Carl Perkins!
Its actually true that Harrison and Orbison weitw some songs before they passed away. Orbison wrote and played on the Wilburys first album and wrote some material for their 2 nd album, but passed away before the album was finished. The remaining Wilburys paid tribute to him in one of their music videos for a song Roy sang on for the album, showing his guitar in a chair beside them during the part Roy sang. Harrison lived until long after the Wilburys moved on an returned to their normal lives
also on piano is the inimitable Jim Erhinger. recognized his sound the first 10 seconds. played the Palamino @ the same time while on the road w/ Hoyt Axton. and a few x with my own band and a couple x with Jim Erhinger. He is a one of a kind keyboard player. It was a one of a kind venue. Thanks for sharing this great recording
Didn't know there was a video of this. Every second is pure musical gold. Thank you.
This is so cool. I didn't even know that this film existed. Thank you.
I'd have loved to have been there....the greats 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎤🎤
Never thought I'd see this rarity, or hear it--only read about it at the time and heard or read George and John Fogerty speak of it in interviews. Thank you for this all-so-rare find.
you are only right about one thing. George, Zimmy, and John Fogerty were there to see Jesse. I was there! enough said.
Beautiful song
Informal jam. All together in 1987
George Harrison and Dylan & friends
I wish someone could clean this Legendary Concert up and make a dvd out of it
Great music and musicians at first ❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Beatles covered this and a couple of other Perkins; songs, and he was very good friends with them, especially George and Ringo. If you search for combinations of Carl Perkins, George Harrison, Ringo Starr and Eric Clapton on here you'll find quite a bit of material with them together. You can also search for Carl Perkins and Friends and find some shows they did together. You'll even find Clapton with Derrick and The Dominoes with Carl Perkins on the Johnny Cash show.
Harrison and Perkins did a lot of work together... thanks for this great post. I was a regular at The Palomino before the idiots closed it down :(
I was there!! Stood right next to Dylan and Harrison. Harrison had brought Dylan to see a mystic indian band...but I can't remember their name. Anyone????
Just found it...Graffiti Man Band
Sounds great.
THis is very good...Rockabilly turned BLUES! thanks-
Mr Jessie Ed Davis, indeed.
Quite the gem this is
This is so great ! Thanks for taking the time & effort to place this priceless clip on you tube for the enjoyment of music lovers. It's often people like you who have the interests of music at heart & not the "breadheads" of the music industry, who only have $'s at heart ! We need more rare clips of he 60's & 70's on You Tube ! Oh yes, THANKS You Tube or allowing people to post these treasures on your web ! We love you all ! We need some of the treasues of Wolfgangs Vault have the same status!
This is incredible. Taj Mahal FTW!
What a blessed anodyne this is after a truly lousy week at work. Fab, thanks for puttin' this on the tube.
cannot believe that a friend of mine who was at this show waited until the next day to call me. to tell me about it. sure wish he had had a cell phone back then.
Thanks for this fantastic posting! What a show!
Wish wish I could have been there
How fucking cool is Taj Mahal when you get Bob Dylan, George Harrison and John Fogerty come out of your audience at a small club and ask if they could possibly come on stage and be your rhythm section? This was recorded in '87, about the time Taj was rediscovered. He's booked solid today at Blues Festivals and Roots Music tours. But just before this was shot he used to come to Pittsburgh 2 or 3 times a year because he would sell out a 400 seat club that I can't remember the name of.
You don't know how frantic I'm gonna be tomorrow, looking for a working cassette recorder... I gotta have a copy of this on tape.
SENSACIONAL
The band included George Harrison, Bob Dylan, John Fogerty, Taj Mahal, Jesse Ed Davis (Kiowa lead guitarist from Taj's band) Mark Shark, Bobby Tsukamoto and Gary Ray. In other videos, Dylan's just happy being one of the boys
Let's insist a bit on the " Kiowa guitarist"...he is the real deal, just talking about guitar. In don't know if he sang , in taht bunch, but he was a sensitive srong singer. As a musician, and about what I hear, he is the best musician of the crowd.
Love Jesse Ed Lewis! It's important to acknowledge his Kiowa roots he blew John Lennon's mind, the UK having none like him. RIP
not sure we needed a Taj harmonica solo EVERY break---I was waiting for Dylan and Jesse Ed to have a go....
This is pure magic! Thank you for posting.
A friend who produced one of the Wilbury's videos told me that Dylan comes to the set on his own steam, no limo, and brown bag's his lunch. He'll give younger dudes the 411 about how every single limo, lunch, bottle of water an artist is given while shooting his own video is charged right back to that artist's account. A banjo player friend did some studio work with Dylan and told me that Dylan would walk in and like instantly count off, start playing. Made for highly motivated bunch of players.
Amazing! Thanks for posting!
Wonderful. Thank you.
This is incredible- thank you 4fabBEATLES for this and to the commenters for telling the story...what an incredible nexus of talent. What I don't get is whether Dylan, Harrison and Fogerty just carry their guitars where ever they go or if they knew they were gonna play. And how can you tell who's playing lead or is it changing back and forth? I must say, George seems to sing American styles really well, here the blues, rockabilly, fantastic with Carl Perkins, the Wilburys
They just had to carry their guitars and wait til Jesse Ed Davis do the real job.
Taj in his prime. Legend.
Great stuff here! Thanks!
Wonderful..merci.
Amazing👏👏👏
Holy Cow! This was great!
This is wonderful!
There is an hour & 55 min of this on UA-cam (somewhere) & on some blogs. A bootleg CD of the "oldies" is on the market as "The Silver Wilburys"
@doubleotwentyone the guy who recorded this was a young news reporter at the back of a club in crowds of dancing people. Nobody knew this show was going to happen- it was totally spontaneous and was never officially recorded or filmed, and this lineup of people never played together again. pure luck that someone heard about it from a friend and was nearby with a camera.
The Travelin Wilburys came along not long after this. Could this been an inspiration?
OutFlippin'Standing!!!thx
well done!
Thanks very much.
Jesse Ed Davis is playing that hot lead!
Good show guys,sounding great.GARYV.
What strikes me is how happy and relaxed George sounds...don't think he had that with his former band mates.
beatlelover111 I know, I was glad he seemed to find some happiness and peace post Beatles, where he had to compete with the 2 greatest songwriters of the century, not to mention the strong personalities there! Imagine having to compete with those two on anything. Or maybe it was just a better time in his life. He always seemed so happy around Dylan, Clapton (notwithstanding Patty)! and supergroup,The Traveling Wilburys. He really seemed to love Tom Petty, too.
This was just before cloud nine broke cloud nine hadn’t broken yet
yes! its divided up in parts, but its all there.
Great, Thanks
What a line up! By the way, that's Jim Ehinger on piano.
Have no idea on where you found this but it is so cool. I have the entire show on Bootleg but never seen any video before. I have been In this club to see one of my favorite Los Angeles Bands and there is an autographed photo of George hanging on the wall. So Cool

Treasure. Thanks
awesome thx.
YEAH BOYS AND ANGELS OR WHATEWER LET ME LISTEN SOME GOOD TUNES
i agree
@55KatDaddy bought that cd many moons ago. didn't know of this video footage till today!!! Another gem!!!
@doubleotwentyone Fogarty didn't come up and plug in till the end ot the tune, the hot solo was Jesse Ed Davis.
I haven't seen anyone mention John Trudell yet so I guess I should. The Graffiti band and Taj Mahal was who was on the bill that night. The Graffiti band was John Trudell (Santee Dakota) and Jesse Ed Davis (Kiowa) doing poetry and spoken word with musical accompaniment. Jesse Ed had been Taj's guitarist so Taj came to try to draw more people to the gig.
George Harrison knew Jesse Ed and brought Bob Dylan (and maybe more) to check out the Graffiti Band. After the Graffiti Band finished their act then all these other guys got on stage.
Jesse Ed passed away the next year and John just passed a few weeks ago.
+Danimalman I was there that night! The video was horrible but look at the year! Ha! My band played a benefit in memory of Jesse at the Ventura Theater in 89. Arranged the whole gig with his wife Kelly and and a lad who ran a 12 steps house from Semi Valley. It was all quite a lovely time!
Danimalman The "other" player that night was none other than John Fogerty
Jesse Ed Dsvis!!
The Bootleg official title is (The Traveling Wilburys-Live at the Palomino Club 2-18-87
@TheSuziamazon You're welcome. I think bootleg CDs,VHS, and maybe even DVDs exist of this show if you really like it-
Hah Hah -- you gotta love it when the camera zooms in on George H when Jesse Ed Davis plays his first lead -- duhh.
Apparently the camera person was only interested in George and Taj...he barely even panned over to Dylan!
no..nobody sponsored it..it was just a jam for fun. Old friends playing together for old times' sake..
Hi, any idea when The Palomino closed, I was in US late 1980's and again approx 1993-1995 my only claim to fame is I performed, by invitation, at the Palomino .twice. Great club,
Top de chez top
Taj reeked cool.
Where was John Fogerty? I never saw him. Fogertys one of my favorite musicians.
Jim Chumley Me too. Going to see him again this summer, 2018. Best concert ever, 3 yrs ago when on tour!!
I didn't see him either. Thought he was on our left in the ref plaid shirt but that's George.
he is in part two
At 7:23 in this video - John Fogerty goes up on the stage. You can see him walk between Bob Dylan and George Harrison and then he goes behind them and starts to put on his guitar. He did not play on this song ("Matchbox") but would begin playing with them after this song.
@randlec6 That's JED half sitting on a stool next to the drums, he was getting around with a cane by then.
Nagyok még ma is!
WOW..wow..kinda like one of those "when the planets line up" moments.
The late Jesse Ed Davis on lead, right? He hung around with George (played on Concert for Bangledesh and several albums)
Great!
Are the other songs available anywhere?
Duh! I read the letters from Gearge to Carl that were in the Perkins' restaurant shortly after Carl's heart attack.
@doubleotwentyone The guitar solo is played by Jesse Ed Davis - not Fogerty. But you're right - the camera is not in the right place.
