If, like me, you’re a John Hartford fan, then this vid is right up your bailiwick. Just stumbled across it tonight, and have had a great time hearing these gems all in one place. It’s a radio concert by Hartford in his heyday. We’re talking a solid hour and a half of Hartford, solo, pickin’ and cloggin’ his heart out, taking no breaks, delivering the goods (John’s setlist is below the video). Enjoy, my friends.

I was there, Jeff. Wish I’d been able to pay a little better attention.
