Twenty-Six

R E D    R O C K S . . .

A "natural" amphitheatre near Denver, this venue was apparently used as early as 1906 for performances (and one would guess it had been used before by others, before the "modern" era), but the CCC and WPA helped to get the current setting done by 1941.

I've not been to it, and I need to rectify that. I have heard plenty of stories from folks who have, and I have been jealous...especially in light of shows like the two I feature from 1978, starting today.

They are justifiably famous recordings (tomorrow is a good bit more well-known than today, but I love 'em both) and I hope you will enjoy them. I always do...
