Band Introduction - Live at the Sydney Opera House, Australia - November 1977
متن موزیک
Before we go any further this evening
I'd like you to meet my friends up here
Some old friends and some new friends
They all have one thing in common
The rest of us in the United States
Who share with them in making music
They're simply the best
I'd like to start off with a gentleman on my right
Who plays electric and acoustic guitar and dobro
Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. James Burton. (Applause)
A little bit behind James
On piano and electric rhodes piano
And ARP synthesizer, Mr. Glenn D. Hardin. (Applause)
The gentleman who's playing the electric bass
A little bit later on this evening
When we do some bluegrass music for you
Will be playing mandolin. Mr. Emory Gordy. (Applause)
Gentleman, you may remember from our last tour
Over here, who's playing the drums
And all the little percussive things
That go on throughout the evening. Mr. Hal Blaine. (Applause)
All the way to my left over here on banjo
And six string guitar and singing along
Every once in a while Mr. Herb Peterson. (Applause)
Just to his right and a little bit behind on 12 string guitar
And helping me sing every once In a while, Mr. Mike Crumb. (Applause)
The lovely lady who joins us on stage
Is a dear friend from Los Angeles
Whom you'll be hearing later on, I hope
On Windsong Records, Ms. Renee Armand. (Applause)
The gentleman to her right, plays harmonica
And mandolin and fiddle and all kinds
Of stuff like that, and sings bass, Mr. Danny Wheatman. (Applause)
And it is with great pleasure that I introduce
To you my dear friend, Mr. Lee Holdridge and the orchestra. (Applause)
