What a great and historic find this is. A remastered live DVD featuring all of the original members of The Marshall Tucker Band, recorded on February 18, 1977 at Capitol Theatre in Passaic, New Jersey. And if that wasn’t enough, the set also includes the entire show on two audio CD’s.
Sure, there are some blips and dark spots, but considering the condition of the original source tapes, the show is magnificent.
Toy Caldwell, Tommy Caldwell, George McCorkle, Doug Gray, Paul Riddle, and Jerry Eubanks are all at the top of their game, performing songs from their biggest album ever, Carolina Dreams.
The set includes many songs that were only performed on this tour, like “Fly Like An Eagle,” “ I Should Have Never Started Lovin’ You” and “Never Trust A Stranger.” Of course they include “Heard It In A Love Song,” “Long Hard Ride” “Searchin’ For A Rainbow, “ “Take The Highway,” Fire on the Mountain.” “In My Own Way, “ “Ramblin’” “24 Hours at a Time,” “Can’t You See,” “This ol’Cowboy” and a rousing rendition of “Will The Circle Be Unbroken.”
More great stuff from the MTB archive that is sure to set many a Southern toe to tappin’. Priceless.
