Seldom Scene, 3-01-73

Here is a real classic, The Seldom Scene from 1973. They had only started as a group in 1971 (formed out of jam sessions in Ben Eldridge's basement. With the ground rules of playing only one night a week at local clubs (Thus the name Seldom Scene), doing occasional concerts and festivals on weekends, making records, and keeping their day jobs. Duffey repaired musical instruments, Eldridge was a mathematician, Starling a physician, Auldridge a graphic artist, and Gray a cartographer with National Geographic. The band's first home scene was the Red Fox Inn in Bethesda, Maryland, where they spent six years before starting weekly performances at The Birchmere Music Hall in Alexandria, Virginia. For this show they were the opening act for Doc and Merle Watson and I will post that show next.
