New Riders of the Purple Sage - Live at the Capitol Theater October 31, 1975 [CD]

This album features New Riders of the Purple Sage (NRPS) who was initially formed as a vehicle for the Grateful Dead to explore country music beyond their own albums. NRPS developed their own identity and recorded six studio albums after signing with Columbia in 1970. Recorded live on Halloween 1975 at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, New Jersey, the band showcased tracks from their latest album, "Oh, What A Mighty Time," alongside highlights from "Brujo," "Panama Red," and "Gypsy Cowboy," as well as tracks from their 1971 debut. With the classic lineup of David Nelson, John Dawson, Buddy Cage, Skip Battin, and Spencer Dryden, this performance epitomizes 70s country rock.
