October 24, 1974 · Record Plant Sausalito

Listen

Eight months after his solo acoustic session at the Record Plant that February, Jimmy Buffett came back on October 24, 1974, and this time brought Jerry Jeff Walker along. Buffett was midway through a six-night run at San Francisco's Boarding House, touring Living and Dying in 3/4 Time. The fifteen-track set runs about an hour and includes "A Pirate Looks at Forty," "Pencil Thin Mustache," and "Railroad Lady" with Walker joining in. The date is confirmed against Buffett's own tour itinerary, which places him at the Troubadour in Los Angeles on the date some other sources carry.
