To watch video on Gather
you need the latest Macromedia Flash Player software.
Would you like to install it now?

This is from the Summer of 1976. Fourth of July in East Fairfield, Vermont, a hotbed of great music at the time. Skeeter Camera on drums, Josh Rich on Guitar, Doug McClaran on piano and myself on bass. Doug died in 1981 but can be heard on many recordings, especially Mary McCaslin's, from the 70's. What a great musician and much loved friend. The soundtrack is overdubbed from one of Skeeter's jazz albums, the original film didn't include a soundtrack.

Casey, the recording was pretty impressive, and I love the video. By any chance, could you guess what song you might have really been playing at that jam session? It seems to me that if I'd watched it with my speakers off, I would have heard something more like Grateful Dead.
