Location: Earth·SolarSystem·LocalInterstellarCloud·Local Bub | I saw that performance when it originally aired...
I couldn't believe they got all those guys together at once. Still one of the best "All Star" jams i've seen...
... and still think it's funny that Steve Martin is a total banjo shedder
Thanks Bobbo. |

He barely made it through his round, and all he tried to do was repeat the basic part. Even at that he had a pretty bad stumble.
But who cares! What a cool clip!
And in the spirit of "all-star jams", here's another one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmIRgZbzoJ8 |

Location: big island | i now recall that i saw a video with earl scruggs playing along with clarence and some of the other "byrds" members. here's a great clip of clarence's muleskinner band. if ya' don't like bluegrass, don\'t click this link
by the way, clarence was loading up his equipment into the back of a vehicle in july 1973, a few months after this video was made, when a drunk driver hit and killed him. hendrix said clarence was the best guitar picker he ever knew. |
