@gbgregg: good observation. Wish she'd borrowed Velveeta Boy's shorts.
Ain't that Billy K on tambourine?

There's no mistaking Jerry's guitar style in this performance.

@pinz2022 -Yep, one the best drummers around in the 60's and 70's. i think he got his teeth knocked out boxing. He was into kung fu fighting,. I guess like one of the original ultimate fighters. He played with the Remains, Leslie West, Gram Parsons, Todd Rundgren, Emmy Lou Harris.

What blows my doors off is the contrast between Sylvia's performance here and her innocent folkie black & white rendition of the same song just a few years earlier. Dress code notwithstanding, that warbling was something she had never done before.

I did some looking. So that was Norman Smart the 2nd as gap-toothed idjit on drums. Good though...
A little bit of history.
God, this version is amazing. Beautiful live performance.

I wish I could get a puff of what they were doing on the train. In all seriousness, Festival Express was a great documentary with a lot of great lost footage from some true rock legends. I highly recommend it to fans of the bands from the period.
