Hi There!
I saw the concert 38years ago.

In the middle part of the show, Olivia sang some songs.
I remember "If", "Banks Of The Ohio","If Not For You","If You Could Read Mind".
I was deeply impressed on her singing abillity.

But so sorry that there were no microphones for Hank and John's chorus.
They had got to sing with michrophones for their acoustic guitars !
What a shame blunder it was !! :oops:

Hank&John used Fender Amps.
Trever Spencer played drums on Olivia set.

Olivia&Pat's backing chorus for Cliff was marvelous.
The songs remind me of young Olivia's blond hair turning.
And one of the nights after the show.
Pat Caroll atttended to the recording of the Japanese famous rock band called "Creation".

The CD does not include the Marvin/Farrar set - sorry...........

I used to have it as 'Cliff Goes East' on double album. A great album and one which I shall be buying soon on CD. Fantastic picture on the reverse. Just read a biography of Olivia and there is quite a bit of coverage of this period in her life.

Hi iefje !

Yes they backed olvia.

And, I remember Hank & John played only with ordinary plectrums on the three finger style tunes.

Without thumpicks.

That was great !

You're right about that. Earlier today, a copy was being auctioned, which ended not very long ago, I forgot about that.
