It was 1970. A friend's older brother had a 2LP set, on Rubber Dubber Records, of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young at the LA Forum. Some of the material was used on 'Four Way Street." I was fascinated by the blank white cover with the title stamped on to it in block letters on one side (ala the Who Live at Leeds) and the Rubber Dubber logo stamped on the other. It predated "Fo

Even on the big screens, you couldn't really see what he was doing. Very strange. Good show, though. Except for the Rocky Mountain Way encore, the setlist consisted entirely of material from Joe's three JG albums. I saw them near Detroit that
