I'm having to make it a part of my routing on Sunday nights! Last night, I stumbled onto another really good back to back pair of programs.
The first was ANOTHER documentary on Peter, Paul & Mary. Different performances than they had last Sunday night. This one had Richie Havens with Peter Yarrow singing "The Great Mandella" along with staples "If I had a Hammer" and a couple of others. These programs are flashing me back to childhood of 45 or 50 years ago! Good Stuff.
Following this PP&M show, was an hour commerating the closing of The Filmore West. Performances by "Cold Blood", "Grateful Dead", and "The Elvin Bishop Group". Elvin Bishop was one of the commentators begging for money (you know how PBS is...annoying!) but the segment of his performance was of the song that Stevie Ray Vaughan classic "The Sky Is Cryin'". FANTASTIC!
I can recommend flipping through the listings for PBS lineups on Sunday nights! Sometimes, you can catch some gems!
