The Bottom Line
I was very interested to learn that JWH would be playing with Rob Wasserman at The Bottom Line. In a later year, JWH would join Hot Tuna and other bands to form one summer's traveling Further Festival lineup. The great drummer Pete Thomas of Elvis Costello and the Attractions had played on some of JWH's early albums, and his musical style through that period of time evoked comparisons to Elvis Costello's.
I really didn't think of Wasserman in that musical vein, although his "trios" album showed the great range of his musical interests and talents.
At the beginning of the show, JWH announced that a special guest would be joining them later in the show. We wondered who it might be. We were simply amazed to see Lou Reed walk out and play several songs with them, including "Busload of Faith." I later met Lou Reed one night at the Film Forum I mentioned my concert experiences to him.
The show is listed on Setlists.FM but without any details.
