Birmingham International Arena, National Exhibition Centre
Concert

Thank you. I hope you can hear us. This is Regina McCrary. She's from Nashville, Tennessee. She’s gonna sing a song called, what? Keep On Falling In Love Till I Get It Right.

Thank you, this is another what you call animal song. I'm gonna record a whole album pretty soon of animal songs. (before Maggie's Farm)

This is a new song off our new record called Dead Man, Dead Man When Will You Arise. This is a song about myself. I was walking right down the road about ten or twelve years ago now. I just recall I wrote this song while looking into the mirror. Dead Man, Dead Man When Will You Arise.

Thank you. Thank you, that was Slow Train Coming. I wanna introduce a young lady to you right now who's been with me for about four or five years. Miss Carolyn Dennis. She was here with me last time, this time she's gonna sing a song called Walking Around Heaven All Day. Carolyn Dennis.

Thank you. That was a song that's just been released. This is an old song that I used to sing a long time ago. I think it's an old folk ballad of some kind. Scottish ballad or English ballad. One of those ballads. See if I can do it like I used to do it. (before Barbara Allen)

Thank you for coming down here tonight. I wanna introduce the lady on my left one more time, Miss Carolyn Dennis. Standing next to her is Madelyn Quebec. Standing next to her is Regina McCrary. Standing next to her is Clydie King. On the keyboards tonight, give him a big hand ladies and gentlemen, he deserves it, Willie Smith. Like you did before. Standing next to him on guitar ,Fred Tackett. Next to him, Steve Ripley. I know the Devil’s confused tonight. Anyway, on my left on the bass guitar from Cincinnati, Ohio. A real warm bass guitar player in the world, last and left, Tim Drummond. On the drums, a man who's played with me in spirit forever really, Jim Keltner. Oh, we’ve gonna have to get out now. I hope we can come back again next year. I know we'll be here tomorrow night. Then we'll be back sometime again soon to. Goodnight. (at the end of In The Garden)
