Chris is truly multitalented

[@ceilingsandfloors]

That's some nice playing bass playing from Chris.

[@pacapaca6307]

Yes he always had an ear for melody which made his bass playing more than “ just bass playing”. 😊

[@THEScottCampbell]

Wish I could have seen this live. Thanks SO MUCH for sharing this!

[@drrjim]

Chris Hillman is the best. Great bass player, singer songwriter, bluegrass oficionado and country rock pioneer. Funny how quiet and shy he was with the original Byrds and then went on as front man for the Desert Rose Band where you couldn't keep him quiet lol. If you don't know about the award winning DRB you should look them up. Fabulous band.

Actually “ as Gene Clark says”, not Roger, in relation to the recording of Chimes of Freedom.

Saw them at the Regent Theatre in Sydney on this tour went to both shows as they were fantastic. Gene Clark played a new song solo and brought the house down the audience went nuts with it apperation which took Gene by surprise. Is one of the best concerts I have ever attended and still reverberates with me 45 years after seeing them. Feel blessed to have seen Gene Clark before his early passing. R.I.P 🎼

Lucky guy, I would have loved to see him. I wonder i this entire show was filmed and still sitting in some tv studio tape archive somewhere

@@derekjensen4680 there is a a audio recording of the first Sydney concert it’s not the complete concert but a large part that you can hear on KZbin The ABC recorded on film the Adelaide concert. Which is on KZbin about 27 minutes of it.i would think that the full concert of one of the shows on this tour would be in some vault.

[@robertlagan8441]

Great comments. Attended 2 Sydney Regent shows & the Canberra theatre. Also the sound check at the Regent. Met the guys back stage & George Grantham. Great memories as you say. Genes solo set was out of this world.

[@PFay]

Was a Byrds fan and was aware of this reunion lineup at the time. Don’t you Write Her Off got a small amount of airplay, on JJ at least. However, for some reason I was unaware of these Australian performances back in the day. I now envy your experience.

Love Chris Hillmans bass playing! Multi talented musician

[@pauldelves3942]

Outstanding pick up this…..especially as Gene Clark loathed flying. Brilliantly shot. Thanks for sharing it😎

Those original harmonies!!!!

Gene Clark forever!💖

I enjoyed this..

[@flautalee3090]

Loving the sweet mandolin playing by Chris Hillman. Absolutely beautiful! Ty! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@davidbutler8850]

Cool song. It reminds me of slow down you move too fast..

[@robbrown4621]

What a lame and disconnected crowd.

thank you for sharing this one!

sure, I was surprised it was not already on here

[@wilhelmberend116]

@@derekjensen4680 i seem to remember this was supposed to be released on dvd at one point but the quality was to bad because of the dark picture. By the way the date was 1978 , not 1977.

[@derekjensen4680]

@@wilhelmberend116 interesting, it looks fine on their broadcast as far as darkness, couple minor glitches on their broadcast tape. curious if the whole show was filmed. Fixed the date

[@pacapaca6307]

@@derekjensen4680 I’m confident the whole Adelaide Concert was filmed. A couple other clips from this Show featuring songs not shown here are viewable on YT but they are second/third generation so visually fuzzy or very dark. Video Taped of a TV screen direct when shown on RAGE . Do you know when this ABC DIG TV Summer special shown ? How did you source this concert excerpt ?

Gene is the best singer and songwriter 🎶❤️

Was, since he died decades ago (far too young).

Ah, Pretty Boy Floyd; Woody Guthrie. 😊 Just a little bit of sweet bluegrass pickin’’ there; two guitars, 2 voices.
