The Final Concert, 9 October 2006
10/10
Author: OldTimerTwo from United States

This final concert of the now-legendary performer took place at Hamilton Place, Hamilton, Canada, shortly before his untimely death in an automobile accident in July, 1981. I have this on the (now defunct) RCA CED video disc and would love nothing better than to see this released to DVD.

The performance is one of Harry's best (in my opinion), featuring his usual repertoire of songs: Story of a Life, Shooting Star, Taxi, Mr. Tanner, WOLD, Better Place to Be, Cat's in the Cradle, Flowers Are Red, Dreams Go By, Mail Order Annie, 30,000 Pounds of Bananas, Sequel, You are the Olny Song, and Circle (which features solos from each of the members of his band along with a special appearance by his brother Tom Chapin). Bassist John Wallace's performance with Harry of Mr. Tanner is particularly sensitive and Steve Chapin on Piano helps out with Flowers are Red.

Someone out there – are you listening (CBS, Columbia, Sony)? Please, please, release this performance to DVD so all of us can enjoy one of best performances of this great humanitarian (he dedicated half of his 200 annual performances to charity) and performer.
