"The Real Thing"

Post by tclements »

The Real Thing was recorded February 13, 1971 at the Fillmore East in NYC, with Taj Mahal plus Howard Johnson and the four-tuba band. There is a great photo inside of the two album jacket, which I am guessing was taken while they were playing "Diving Duck Blues." On the intro tune, Howard plays a marvelous bari sax solo, where he ascends into the extreme altissimo range on the bari. Also, there is a charming duet with Howard and Taj playing a banjo and tuba duet, "Tom and Sally Drake." My question is, does anyone know if there was any VIDEO taken at that concert? Thanks!
