Thanks for the tip Chuck....gonna check that one out!

I thought it was a Macon city bus--or was that Berry Oakley?

There's a remixed "Live at the Fillmore East" album out, a double CD with all of the live cuts from "Eat a Peach" on it, supposedly all in the order they were actually played. Segues right into Mountain Jam at the end of Whipping Post on disc 2. Some throwaway studio piece is included at the end.

Thanks for posting the link, TDF. Interesting read. I couldn't believe that Oakley was actually up and walking around declining treatment after hitting the bus. If it happened today, he may have been saved.
