I saw Corky preform in Chicago, 1978??, along with Shawn Phillips headlining, can't remember much. ~I Think it Was the Wine~ A miracle we survived those days & can almost remember them ---- but the memories are still floating somewhere in the back of my brain.
I loved these guys when I was a teenager back in the '70s. I have carried around three of their albums for 30+ years waiting for a turntable to fall into my lap. I didn't think to try on U-Tube. I have spent the entire evening listening and watching. Thank you for the videos. This has been fun. I love these guys.
I also first saw these guys at the same show - Nov 6, 1970 - but it was Wilderness Road on the bill, not Mott the Hoople. Worm played first, then Siegel-Schwall, and even though Traffic was next up, the crowd brought 'em back for a couple of encores - finishing with this rave-up. During the equipment setup for Traffic, somebody shorted something out on stage, and the PA system was knocked out for a while. Traffic left early after a listless set, and Wilderness Road closed the show.
Fun gig.
