It isn’t particularly unusual for a band at Byron’s to cover a Grateful Dead song. The Cousin Curtiss Duo did a real nice job on this “One More Saturday Night”. Due to a small amount of confusion, we arrived at the conclusion of the show but still caught this one. We didn’t have time to check our levels and to position the mics; this was from the front of our table very close to the band.
Our upload to Archive.org doesn’t include this interesting introduction to this powerful song:
From the album “Songs From A Corner Stage”
Mark Stuart of Nashville, TN (not the Christian singer by the same name) turned in a great night at Byron’s Bar, Pomeroy, Ia on 6/24/22. We’ll have the full performance up at Archive in due time, but one song in particular caught my attention because it sounded very much like the Amazing Rhythm Aces. Mark confirmed to me that he was a Russell Smith fan, and I think that’s pretty obvious to anyone else who listens to the Aces (such as myself).

If you like poodle-inspired Spanish style guitar, this one’s for you:
Sorry for the shaky stuff and jumping around; didn’t realize it was going to be a fourteen minute video, and it’s missing a couple of intro minutes at that…….anyway, that’s a long time to try to hold something still without a tripod…..
“Dupree’s Diamond Blues” first appeared on the 1969 Grateful Dead album, Aoxomoxoa.
