BobTalk
Thank you. Here's a song I wrote and recorded ten years ago. I sang it the first time at the folk festival at Newport. Maybe some of you have been there, at the time? Here it again, I Ain't Gonna Work On Maggie's Farm No More.

Thank you. You wanna hear a new song? This is called I Must Love You Too Much.
All right thank you. We almost played that one right. Anyway this is a tune I recorded with The Band not too long ago on an album called Planet Waves. You all remember The Band? (before Going, Going, Gone)

Thank you. This is another new song called Am I Your Stepchild?

Thank you. That last song I wrote right here in New York City a while back. (after I Want You)

This song I wrote in Mexico on a train ride. I was going from Monterey to San Diego, fell asleep and I woke up and I wrote this. (before Señor (Tales Of Yankee Power))

Thank you. We're gonna play you this song it's called Baby Stop Crying. It was out a while ago as a single. And there’s lot of people from Columbia Records here tonight, so we'll play it so they know we're doin' our job. (plays Baby Stop Crying)

Thank you. That last song was for Don DeVito, who's here tonight. Wanna say hello to Don. Wanna say hello to Carolyn and David who are here tonight.

Thank you. All right, the members of this band. The players of the band. On the drums, from England, Ian Wallace. Give him a hand please. On the bass guitar Mr. Jerry Scheff. On the keyboards from Elizabeth, New Jersey Mr. Alan Pasqua. Lead guitar, Billy Cross. On the rhythm guitar, this man lies to me all the time, on the rhythm guitar Steve Soles. On the violin and the mandolin and lead electric guitar, the youngest member of this group, doesn't smoke dope, doesn't go out with women, doesn't drink whiskey. That's why he's so good. Anyway, we're gonna try and keep him just like that, David Mansfield. On tenor saxophone, Mr. Steve Douglas. All right, on the backup vocals tonight, three beautiful young ladies, tear my heart out every night. I'm sure they do the same for you. On the right, my cousin, Jo Ann Harris. In the middle, my childhood sweetheart, Helena Springs. And on the left, my fiancée, Carolyn Dennis. On the conga drums from Detroit Miss Bobbye Hall. This is called It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding.

Thank you, all right. This is it for tonight. We're gonna head on. Hope you're all right. Hope your feeling good. And I hope we played a few of these songs right. Anyway, see you soon, be safe now. (before Forever Young)
