I don't think many people downloaded the last post.
I am not sure what to make of that.

Q: How many of those who download these files
can a handle Monroe flick encoded with
Real Player 8 or later video file?

I'd love the flick... let 'er rip.

I for one love these and hope you're able to keep them coming.

Impossible to get tired of great music, especially live music. This was another great one. Thanks again Jim

I dig it! I always like to hear Mon do things he rarelly ever does. Like the version of 'little community churchhouse' and I've never heard him do 'You gotta walk that lonesome Valley'

[Vincent]

any and all video is appreciated, Jim. And just because something doesn't get dnloaded by many doesn't mean many aren't interested. Sometimes I just get busy and can't keep up with email offers etc...

and what bowfinger said- I laughed out loud at the recent Monroe show you posted with Cheyenne- it's rare and he sounded good! Peter Rowan was clearly listening... : )

any and all video is appreciated, Jim.

Absolutely! It's the only Bill and Boys i'll ever get to see!

That's a good time. Bill was sounding pretty darn good. Love hearing Kenny play Jerusalem Ridge. Wayfaring Stranger, too... way cool.

[Coy Wylie]

Awesome Jim! There's so little video available.

[GTison]

how do I save these files in real player? Can I? or do they just down load every time?

[JMOSS99]

I don't know for sure. #I think you need
to find the path to the .rm file and copy
from that. These won't be there long.#

Making the image larger in encoding took too
much from the sound quality.

On Jerusalem Ridge do you hear Monroe pushing Kenny?
I don't think they were getting along that weekend.
In the night show Kenny goofs up big time with a
modulation, after that he is all smiles and jokes.

This was par for the course with these guys. I have a
photo I took at a Denver festival in 1974 where Baker
wanted to go off and Bill made him stick around.
As Bill was walking away I said, "Baker, let me have a
picture!". #Baker said, "I'll give you a picture!" and he
turned toward Monroe with his fiddle by his side and his
finger sticking out. #You know what I am talking about too.
I don't know where that photo is, but years ago I made
a blow up on the printer and sent it to him. #I titled it
"The Best In Tension". #

Has anyone been able to figure this out?

Yes... i did.

(for geeks only) Play the clip, use "File/Properties" to find out the clip's address. Then use whatever downloading program to download the .rm file. I used curl.

Jim ,
Thanks so much! The sepia tone made it easier to watch
on the small screen.

The story on the color of this video is
that it was shot with that florescent light
over the stage. #Florescent light looks green.
So I tried to remove the ugly green, but I ended
up with other colors. # I guess we are lucky to have
this video. #It came from a VHS camera that I thought
at first had lost a color gun, but later realized that
the problem was the florescent lights. #It was shot
by someone at the show.

It reminds me of how the cassette tape of the show
where Baker walks off the stage as he quits the band
was made.

[Coy Wylie]

Both concerts were great Jim. Got more?

[Zed]

Yep... the vids are great... the older the better. How early on did the Opry start filming or televising the show? What's the oldest vid of Mon that anyone knows about?

[Frankmc]

Jim, Do you know if Monroe ever played Hadleys Town Hall Party out of Compton CA in the late 50's ?

Thanks, Frank

[JMOSS99]

Yeah, I seem to remember a show called Town Hall Party.
It has been a while since I heard that one, like the 70s.

Love to have that one...

The terms were:
I could not even admit to having a copy.
I don't think they said that I was not to admit that it existed.
It exists!

So... #I don't know who has one, but if you want to know
about what happened on that stage that night, #you can ask me. #

I can't tell you what happened before, or after. #
I am sure of that.

You can just believe what have heard knowing that it is
mostly likely not correct... # not the real story. #

If you read it in a certain book, you can bet it is not correct!

SO I am going to take the 5th. #
... in Bluegrass that would be a D.

Maybe in 20 years...

[Spruce]

Does it involve "Jeruselem Ridge"? #

[JMOSS99]

Not really.
It was after Jerusalem Ridge, but had little to
do with it. #It was just the tune that Bill ask
him to play, and nicely at that. On the tape you
can tell that Monroe is shocked by Baker leaving
the stage. #

There is a real reason here, but it has nothing
to do with Jerusalem Ridge. #

Baker just used that time for the effect I would
say... if I could. #You could say it was an opportunity.
