When was it?

[@ChipMiller]

The concert was filmed over two nights in 2016 in Hollywood, and then it aired on PBS from 2016 to 2019, and still pops on sometimes, In 2020, after Bob Shane and Trini Lopez (who appears in the concert) both passed away, the concert is available on DVD and on CD soundtrack, as well as is now available on all major streaming platforms through MVD Distribution.

This isn’t the Kingston trio…they’re all dead

[@ChipMiller]

No shit, Sherlock. However, the late Bob Shane was producing, managing, touring, and appearing with this line-up from 2003 to 2018. 5 years longer than the original Trio. But this is about their music. Two of The Beatles are dead, Beethoven is dead, The Doors are practically dead, etc. Enjoy the music and meaning and don't be snide with something so friggin' obvious. Al Jardine of The Beach Boys, Timothy B. Schmit of The Eagles, Barry McGuire of the New Christy Minstrels, Trini Lopez, Henry Diltz of the Modern Folk Quartet, and many more, appeared with Shane and this Trio and had no issue about the line-up because they were honoring their late heroes. How about you do the same? And if I get a wise ass reply, you will simply be deleted. Cheers, Chip
