David Tamarkin provided the eyewitness account of Merl being
there.
An eyewitness account
corroborates and further clarifies both the list in Deadbase IX and the
previous listing here: that Set 3 is with Merl Saunders, Dickey Betts
and Butch Trucks. Based on earlier messages from folks listening to the
tapes, there is no audible evidence to support the suggestion that it is or
even is not Merl on keyboards.
I was there and I don't
remember Merle playing but more importantly, there is no mention of him in the
lineup for
It Takes A Lot To Laugh.... on the "postcards of the
hanging" album.
I know the JGB was playing around the RFK dates, maybe
somebody just saw him there
onstage/backstage.
