Thanks for posting that link.
That guy has posted some cool board recordings, I've listened to many of them in the past.
Never heard these guys together live before, I just wish he could have posted who else was on stage. If it was all the same ones as on the studio album?

I loved Jernigan's solo rendition of "Streets of Laredo"-- Very cool!

Was Ellis Padgett the bass player in the band?

This is a great find. I have the vinyl double album - C Jam Blues is fantastic.
