The rest of the band...sound great, as well. "Job well done!!"
Sound quality...is very good.

"This is newly-revived classic NRPS material with David Nelson and Buddy Cage. Fantastic sound quality in both the CD and the DVD. "Garden of Eden", the best cut on the CD, really rocks and has a message with contemporary relevance. A must-have for any NERP or deadhead or someone who just likes country rock."
NRPS as good as ever

"This performance by the New Riders was quite a surprise. These guys can still bring it after almost forty years. There are two original members left (although technically David Nelson is the only original member since Buddy Cage stepped in for Jerry Garcia on steel guitar early in the group's history), but the fill-ins do very well.
The venue is odd, it appears that there are about thirty people on hand at some turkey ranch in New York State.
I grew up in the Bay Area and was able to experience several live performances by these guys in the 70s. This performance is just as good, if not better, that those very memorable shows. The missing piece is John Dawson, who wrote many of the original songs, but those songs are recreated here very well.
I highly recommend this for NRPS fans."

New Riders of the Purple Sage - Live at Turkey Trot

"This dvd was filmed at the Turkey Trot Lodge in New York. This is a small and intimate venue. You get a close-up look at the New Riders performing their songs. This is a very "laid-back" and relaxing dvd to watch. It contains excellent jam music, including great steel guitar work. The New Riders really jam it out on extended versions of Portland Woman, and In the Garden of Eden. They perform an encor performance of Pamana Red. If you like good smooth relaxing jam music to watch, you'll enjoy this one. Also, the dvd cover art is beatiful. Another bonus is the CD of this concert which is included in the package. This is a great dvd/cd combo."
