Henry Paul is the last founding member to be in The Outlaws as of this posting. Monte Yoho has retired from the music business. At the time of this recording a lot of the USA was just getting to know the Florida Guitar Army. Three lead guitar players that also were three lead vocalists gave the band an original sound. The music was pure Southern Rock but the vocals were more like that of The Eagles. This combination made The Outlaws music pour like honey into your stoned, headphone cover ears. While researching this show I was saddened by the fact that Billy Jones and Frank O'Keefe were both victims of suicide. It's such a loss to the world of music. Billy Jones had such a beautiful voice and Frank O'Keefe was a very talented bassist who could hold it all together while the Outlaws Guitar Army went of on their many tangents. At this point in the life of the band, every thing was firing on all cylinders, vocalists and instrumentalists. The lengthy set closer "Green Grass And High Tides Forever" is never played the same way twice no matter how many times you see (or saw) The Outlaws. That makes this and any other Outlaws bootleg you see a must have.
