The concert also features guest appearances Dickey Betts and Chuck Leavell of the Allman Brothers Band, Jimmy Hall from Wet Willie, Dru Lombar from Grinderswitch and the entire Marshall Tucker Band.

| Good Audio, Not So Great Video | |
|  | I was disappointed in the quality of the video of this concert. You can certainly tell it was done 30 years ago. However, the audio quality is good, and there are many good jam songs on this DVD. Vintage Marshall Tucker is always good to hear, and Charlie Daniels is always great in concert. Since I couldn't be there when it happened, this was nice to see.
| |  | Charlie Daniels was the first concert I ever saw.
This vid was a great representation of the band back then.
These days Charlie Daniels is more known for his right wing jingoistic stuff and like Ted Nugent only secondarily as a musician.
This performance sort of takes me back and reminds me of the "Long Haired Country Boy" and what great instrumentalists he and his whole band was sort of before he kind of became the people he parodied in "Uneasy Rider"
On the long jams forgot how much his sound recalls the Allmans and I think this really shows a person who may only know the "Country" Charlie Daniels what an amazing instrumental group CDB was. His guitar and bass players especially shine and the camera really catches the interaction of the musicians.
Thanks for the memories!
| |  | I was disappointed with the quality of this DVD. They definitely jam on the video but the quality is not great at all. If you like Charlie Daniels and good foot stomping music, it may still be worth it.

| | The VHS tape is much shorter than 123 minutes | |
|  | I have had the VHS tape of this concert for many years (from the now defunct VIDEO CLASSICS company) and, while it is an excellent concert, on tape it only runs to 59 minutes with titles included. I am actually in the middle of transferring it from VHS to DVD as the tape is a shockingly bad reproduction on lousy quality tape. I suspect that the aforementioned company may have used pirated copies back then (early eighties) as even the back of the cover shows the run time as 90 minutes. Then again, one has to remember that this copy which I have dates back to very beginnings of videotapes being available in Australia. Thank God the music transcends such crap. I actually only tracked it down on here when I went looking to find a recording date and never knew that it had been released on DVD until now. Finances and time allowing (I am unwell) I will try to avail myself of a copy of the DVD as soon as possible. In the meantime.................
