EBBETS FIELD from ATSE [contd] | Emmylou Harris - Ebbets Field, Denver, CO USA 1975 | ALBUMS THAT SHOULD EXIST

Emmylou Harris - Ebbets Field, Denver, CO, 6-23-1975, Late Show

Paul continues his Ebbets Field series of concerts with the peerless Emmylou. He says:

In posting these Ebbets Field concerts, I've relied exclusively on radio broadcast recordings. But Emmylou Harris is a unique exception to that. Someone made an audio bootleg of one of her concerts at that venue, and it sounds good enough to post. So I have two concerts from her, one from June 23, 1975, and the other from June 24, 1975. Unfortunately, I am on vacation and I can't tell right now which one is which. But after I post both, maybe one of you can tell me which is which and I can adjust my write-up accordingly. I plan on posting the June 24th concert immediately after this one.

I decided to post both concerts because there was some overlap in terms of the songs that are played, but there also were a lot of unique songs in both shows. Luckily, both concerts started with the song "Cash on the Barrelhead." That's lucky, because the version in this concert was missing about the first minute, but the version in the June 24th concert is complete. So I used part of the June 24 version to fill the missing section. That's why that one song has "[Edit]" in its title.

In an early 1975, Harris released her first "real" solo studio album, "Pieces of the Sky." I say "real" because she had a very early solo album in 1969 that she later disavowed, as well as two albums with Gram Parsons. Later in 1975, she would release another solo studio album, "Elite Hotel." She played a few of the songs that would appear on that album in this concert as well.  

This album is 57 minutes long.
