    I picked up a 10CD set of the 1989 concert (I think it was 89 - can't remember) from KPFT during one of their fund drives about 2 years ago. Amazing recordings.

    EDIT: was 1984. Link (and no, I did not pay 500 bucks for it)

    I have an LP of Weldon "Juke Boy" Bonner at the 1983 Juneteenth Blues Festival. Used to go every year from 1977 through the mid 80s.

    Black?

    Sorry :eek: ... let me be "politically correct":
    "African-American"?

    The real question is: What parade will you be going to? :confused:
