I’ve heard of that Eagles band. How were they there?

Their first album had just come out and Peaceful, Easy Feeling was getting airplay. Not the style of music people going to that show wanted to hear. When The Eagles came on stage, whoever the front man was commented on the small number present and encouraged the paltry few in the audience to move in front, close to the stage - mentioning "having a party". Myself and a companion were already in that area. Someone, audience member or road crew, walked the perimeter and tossed rolled joints into the group.

They played OK and did not get booed but were too country for a blues rock concert. Witchy Woman was the nearest thing they played to hard rock.
For some reason though I got their album a day or two after that show. Never played it much except for Witchy Woman - probably why I bought it. That was not the first time I bought an LP because I liked one song.
 
Assemblage of Thrift Store Acquisitions

Today was spent listening to my Sansui AU-101 integrated amplifier before putting it up for consignment sale. I bought it perhaps 15 years ago for $15. The tech repaired it last week and for such a diminutively powered amplifier, it's a good one from 1973-1974.

Are you still consigning through Innovative Audio?

What became of Gord and his venture in the US?
 
Hi Gary: Yes, I am still selling gear through Innovative Audio. Gordon will be returning to Canada to help out with family. About three weeks ago he listed his house for sale in Denison, Iowa.

Sorry to hear that. I was hoping he could set up shop down here. The little Sansui is a nice one, btw.

Reminded me of early Jefferson Airplane and similar American progressive rock from the late 60's.
I think side 2 was more "Bluesy" and slower cadence, more to my liking.
Going to listen to it again tomorrow morning, find the lyrics, and empty the coffee pot while l enjoy it again.
