The Band - 1971-06-30 - New York, NY (HQ Aud)

Today we have a high quality audience recording of The Band during the 1971 Schaefer Festival, from June 30 of that year, 39 years ago today. The setlist features 4 songs from their 1970 album, Stage Fright - Time to Kill, The Shape I'm In, The W.S. Walcott Medicine Show and the title track - but none from the disc, Cahoots, which would be released just 3 months after this concert in September. That the group did not preview any of their new work seems curious. Perhaps that was the result of the tensions that were emerging between Robbie Robertson and Levon Helm, as the former took more and more control over the group’s direction and song writing. Perhaps that’s also why Cahoots was their last album of new material for over 4 years. In any event, those issues were not yet impacting the quality of The Band’s live performances. Later that year, they would play the famed Academy of Music shows which would be recorded for the live disc Rock Of Ages. Download this one, therefore, to hear The Band while they were still at their peak.

Merle Haggard - 2009-06-14 - Manchester, TN (HQ Aud)

After an early life of crime, Haggard became one of the leading lights of country music, with over 30 number one hits. He helped develop the “Bakersfield Sound”, a harder edged genre of country that as a reaction against the slickly produced, string orchestra-laden Nashville sound, which was becoming popular in the late 1950s. Haggard was later associated with the outlaw country movement, along with such legends as Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson. His songs, such as Sing Me Back Home and Mama Tried, were covered by such rock legends as the Grateful Dead, Joan Baez and The Everly Brothers. Twenty years after he published his autobiography, Haggard continued to record and tour. In 2010, he was recognized for his lifetime of musical contributions at the annual Kennedy Center Honors ceremony. Merle’s a living legend, and no music collection would be complete without one of his live performances. This high quality audience recording captures Merle at Bonnarro a year before the Kennedy Center ceremony, on June 14, 2009, just a year ago this very day.
