"By 1969, Bill Keith had been playing pedal steel guitar for two or three years. Bill Keith and Jim Rooney were scheduled to play a concert at New York's Washington Square Church.
Jim Rooney recalls (p.95): "We thought it would be fun to do a split concert - one half bluegrass and folk and half country. Bill suggested that Eric Weissberg join us. On the afternoon of the concert, fiddler Richard Greene, who plays in New York in a rock band called 'Seatrain', joins this "circumstantial band" for the concert".

Producer: Erik Jacobsen; Executive-Producer: Charles Rothchild & Peter Edmiston; Released in 1979 by Seven Arts Records WS 1802.
