This is a really stellar line-up: Bob Margolin from Muddy Waters' band and Jeff Lodsun, his frequent drummer, plus Tom "Little Red" Corradino on accordion (on Tex' songs) and guitar strangler Evan Johns on bass. I remember the show. The only downside, typical on a Charlie Feathers show, were the long Charlie stories. (And note that Evan takes a nip every time Charlie starts one.) Plus I remember the sound went out at one point. This is probably one of the last shows that I remember where Charlie could give that much energy to it. His health got worse not long after. A year or two later, they were doing benefits for his medical expenses. Going to these shows was a big part of my life in my 20s. Again, Tex, thanks for posting.

Quite a combination.
