31 years ago today



November 28, 1975 -

Friday night, Thanksgiving weekend, EMMYLOU HARRIS AND THE HOT BAND played at "The Boarding House" in San Francisco.








In the early 1970s, Emmylou had been singing and recording with GRAM PARSONS. After his posthumous second LP in 1974, Emmylou signed with Reprise Records and released "Pieces of the Sky" in 1975.

This is an excellent recording of a great show, from a KSAN radio broadcast. They do several songs from Gram's LPs, and NICOLETTE LARSON helps out on "Jambalaya". It's a single hour-long wma file, about 17MB:
