Early drum solo

[Villavic]

I must admit I have not seen many live videos of the early lineups, my favorite one is the Rumours. Though I do enjoy many early songs, specially Peter's and Christine's.

So I've seen a lot of times the Mick's drum solo in World Turning in concert videos. But did he have a particular or favorite song to play his drum solo in the early years? Is there any video around there?

"Night Watch" was usually the vehicle for Mick's drum solo during the Welch era of the band. These performances incorporated his talking drum, which he would use extensively for "World Turning".

He starts this solo around the 4:30 mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGVMEWTKB5s

"Coming Your Way" also featured an extensive percussion solo, with the other members joining in on congas, cowbell, and tambourine.
