I haven't seen this one--nice. And they were so young. Thanks for posting, Pippinwhite.

Bringing this forward to the new page. Thanks for finding and posting this rarity!
Re: Leadon Love: The Bernie Leadon Photo Thread
You're welcome! It showed up on a Gram Parsons FB fan page I follow. I thought it was a great pic. Wish the quality were better, but you can't have everything.

Here's another pic I found of Bernie and the Burritos. It's on a Gram Parsons FB site.

Great pics! Thank you, Pippen! How I wish I could have seen Bernie on the HOTE tour.
Re: Leadon Love: The Bernie Leadon Photo Thread
He was very low-key and didn't seem like the same person. Obviously he's a mature man now, but I didn't detect any trace of the independent hippie surfer.
There's one scene of Bernie from the BBC concert where they're playing the final part of "Take It Easy," and Bernie is playing very "out" - not out of tune but just a way out there solo and he has this huge grin on his face. I didn't see any sign of that dude on the HOTE tour. He has a different vibe about him now.

I guess it probably felt a little strange after all those years to be back as an Eagle. I think I remember that part of the BBC video...Bernie changes up his guitar solo and Glenn kind of has this surprised but impressed look on his face.
It's cool you got to him on the tour though.
Re: Leadon Love: The Bernie Leadon Photo Thread
Got to see them twice on the HOTE tour, yes ma'am: November 22, 2013 and July 10, 2015, both times in Miami at the American Airlines Arena.

I had to do some backtracking but ^this^ was apparently my 2000th post!!
