    Marquee photo is Bill Graham playing cowbell after being dosed (I think a Fillmore West show). Search Bill Graham Cowbell and a red dit thread comes up that has a cropped photo with Pigpen singing and Bill on cowbell on side of stage. Edit - now I'm reading that at 2/11/69 shows Mickey gave Bill a cowbell to commemorate the earlier dosed show event (exact date unknown). And that the photo could be Bill playing the gifted cowbell on 2/11/69 and not a photo of him at the show where he was dosed. An enigma wrapped in a mystery.

    Yes I know he isn’t mooning. I don’t guarantee it but the picture looks like contemporary pics of Bill Graham from the internet. You have to fight through many photos of Billy Graham and an apparently pro wrestler Bill Graham. The hair style looks right. Anyone know for sure?

    Edit Posted this before I saw the PROUDFOOT reply.

    It is indeed Bill Graham with his "more cowbell"

    Hope everyone is doing well. Sorry for the erratic posting. Trying to manage living in heart failure doesn't leave a lot of time for sitting at the computer.

    To anyone who got a copy....

    In the theater marque on the cover, there is a photo of someone,,,, anyone know who?

    I thought maybe Bill Graham, but I have no idea what he looks like.

    9/21/72 - Dicks 36

    Brushed over a bit in my last post, this is a great show. Many things stand out - one of the things I like about Fall 1972 is the way they would start jamming early on in the show. The second song is a 13min 39 second version of Bird Song. A run through El Paso then they go into China Cat-Rider. Quite a way to kick things off.
    The highlight though, is the second set, Truckin' to Morning Dew. After which they play Beat It On Down The Line. Of course. Actually a red hot take, but the show seems to end in a way after Dew - the remaining 8 songs sound a bit like add ons to me.

bringing it all back home.... https://youtu.be/MNwqV_HpMSE re Sam Price, would have had more credibility if the lead singer wasn't reading lyrics off a sheet of paper, that clip was made for radio.... ;-)
