This is an enjoyable short set featuring MacDonald completely solo. After being introduced by Bill Graham, he opens with two songs off the Incredible! Live LP, which sets the stage for some of his more humorous political commentary. These are followed by an obligatory nod to his legendary Woodstock appearance with "The Fish Cheer" and "Fixin-To-Die-Rag," one of the 1960's most ubiquitous protest songs concerning the Vietnam War.
