CommentAnonymous Collection 1 Cassette Tape #107 presents a May or June 1972 performance by Bill Monroe & His Blue
Grass Boys at an unknown festival (perhaps in Pennsylvania). Monroe's band at the time included

Del McCoury & The Dixie Pals (Jerry McCoury-bass, Billy Sage-fiddle, Dick Staber-mandolin, and Bill Runkle-banjo)
