  1. McGuinn did four nnights at this venue. I was at ( and taped) all 4. He did Copper Kettle each night as I recall.

  2. nice copy, but it's too bad they didn't do the whole show.McGuinn did two sets per night, each set almost 60 minutes long.Some new stuff, some folk stuff, some familiar and obscure Byrds things Probably the best series of McGuinn gigs I've ever seen.Bonus: got to meet and talk to him for a couple minutes on his way in. As I mentioned earlier, he did four concurrent nights. Great venue too, too bad it only lasted a couple of years.
