Title: Roger- over and out(of the Byrds)
Product review: I have been a Jim/Roger Mcguinn fan since first hearing Mr. Tambourine Man on the radio. This recording finds Roger in his rocking best as a soloist.Roger had been though several band changes since the Byrds finally dissolved.I believe this was his last backing band until the formation of McGuinn, Clark, and Hillman in 1979-80. This material was recorded around the time of Roger's last Columbia record. On this tour, (and also on the record) is Rick Vito. I had not heard of Rick before McGuinn hired him to play on his record. He plays many great solos, and even sings lead on a song. He even plays Clarence White tribute riffs here and there. Rogers voice is better here. On some of the late seventies live stuff he did, his voice was rather hoarse sounding.If you want to catch a transitional period concert of Roger, you may find a place for it in your collection.Fans of Rick Vito may want this DVD too. It was the begining of his career.
