arnie-lawrence-jack-wilkins-1976-02-09-ramada-inn-front-cover-bannerthis is another of the fantastic csatennis recordings from the schenectady, ny area in the mid to late 1970s.

he describes this as

this is an incredible recording in my opinion and perhaps my most important because it details a period on arnie lawrence’s career that has not been captured commercially.

yup.  couldn’t agree more.  this is an amazing show, and my favorite of the csatennis schenectady/albany recordings that i’ve heard.
