peter rowan is excellent/ i saw him many times at suannee. he is always there in the crowd mixing with everyone else. one year i was looking at a program guide. my picture was in it . i discovered that i had heard him many years before at valley forge with seatrain. it blew my mind because i enjoyed seatrain big time especially him doing the song of job
I first heard this song on KFAT driving up Hwy 1. It was the Old and In the Way version, with Peter, Jerry Garcia, Vassar Clemens, David Grisman and John Kahn. What a moment! I had to pull over because such virtuosity demanded my rapt attention! I have to say I think it was Vassar Clement’s finest moment. The whole band was smokin’. I love this version, too, because it’s such a sweet love song. Whenever I’m feeling a little off, I just cue up this song and all is right with the world.
