Bishop's band was laying it down, but I was broke. Stood outside the fire door in the winter cold for at least an hour, loving every minute. This incarnation of his lineup sounds most like the band I heard that night. So funky!

Last time I saw The Elvin Bishop Group was at the Fillmore East in March 1971. Great Show!!! Jo Baker was singing with Elvin and the background vocals were The Pointer Sisters. The Bill was shared with Johnny Winter And. The Allman Bros were the headliners. Elvin was supposed to do a whole set with the Allmans but there was a bomb scare and "we" all had to leave the auditorium. When we came back in and got seated Elvin came out and explained that Johnny Winter demanded to go on so Elvin called out Duane and Dickey and the three of them jammed some blues. A truly memorable show. Too bad Johnny Winter acted like such an asshole. The Allmans played till the sun came up. I went home wishing Elvin's Show hadn't been shortened. I had the pleasure of seeing Paul Butterfield at the Fillmore East so Elvin was no stranger to me.
