    What a treat! To see John Dawson (rhythm guitar and vocals), David Nelson (lead guitar and back vocals), Buddy Cage (pedal steel guitar), Dave Torbert (bass and back vocals) and Spencer Dryden (drums) live was enough to put their fans in country music heaven, but to see Jerry Garcia (Fender Telecaster) and Sandy Rothman (banjo) was positively blissful. And to have that song recorded live on videotape? Awesome. Kids, this is what real music is like. Taylor Swift is all well and good, but you have to venture beyond your musical comfort zone and check out what we listened to back in the day. You’ll feel a whole lot better. I swear I ain’t lying.

      Ever heard of the Meters? They are the band that Jerry Garcia thought was the most underrated band of all time. And just to be clear, I saw the New Riders about thirty times in the seventies.

    I remember Jerry and Buddy on the stage at Kezar stadium 5/26/73. They were watching Ralph Mooney Waylon Jennings Pedal Steel player work his craft. I had the impression they were impressed by Ralph who was like 20 years older then them at the time.

    Do you happen to have the first time NRPS played public? When the show was billed as Jerry Garcia and they came on stage unannounced. This was at Long Shoremans Hall in SF. A Hells Angeles party Billed Janis Joplin and Jerry Garcia. Garcia came out and said this is going to blow everybody's mind. He sat down and played steel string guitar that nite.

    I love the NRPS, have since their 1st album in 1970, thanks to Jer Bear for forming the New Riders, so Garcia could play pedal steal guitar with them, of course they continued after Jer left and Buddy played, love and miss Marmaduke (John Dawson) & David Nelson.❤❤❤This is one of hubbys favorite songs, he loves NRPS too, coz I introduced him long ago. Glendale Train is a favorite, we sing along to them all the time. My bestie, Nancy sent me a new NRPS embroidered patch for my jeans for Christmas. I used to draw that album cover all the time in college, I love the smoke signals NRPS debut album cover so much, love them so much & I am so glad I got to see them at a Day On The Green, Bill Graham concert where they opened for the Grateful Dead.😊
