Backstage Weekend - Dave Guard's Whiskeyhill Singers - Complete concert 1962

(Back by popular demand - the whole show)
A few weeks ago I put up an excerpt of a Hollywood Bowl concert from 1962 featuring Dave Guard's Whiskeyhill Singers. It drew a huge response and the overwhelming request was for more. Since I had put up the initial clip before the snappy new Crooks and Liars embed player was up and running, I was only able to use YouTube and their somewhat limiting 10 minute maximum to play the piece.
Now that things are new and improved, I've decided to run the concert complete and without edits or interruptions - just as it happened that night in 1962.
Okay fans, have at it!
This is awesome that you put this up. Quality stuff. Where did you find the whole thing intact?

Awesome, sir, thank you!
Dave Guard should have stayed with the Kingston Trio!
Just as Glenn Yarbrough should have stayed with the Limeliters!

Good stuff!!
I love being just suddenly gobsmacked. That was as amazing as the first time I heard The Dillards. The Ewan Maccoll song was the icing on the cake. In the interest of the musical chain, here's Luke Kelly, another great champion of the working man and a great friend of Maccoll http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTBC7ckTWpo

Boring. Not worthy of being called "music" in my humble opinion. Each to his (or her) own I suppose.
I can't believe just how much I am enjoying this.
Thank you.
Corruption favors the wealthy.
Wow. What presence the group had.
Song choices were quirky as expected. Highlights were Salomila, Bonny Ship the Diamond and Bound for South Australia.
Really cool harmonies and the group really swung.
Thanks for retrieving this gem.
