“Mike Nesmith never even made a reference to his former role as a Monkee. For me and the predominantly under-25 audience, the 35 minute act was far too short. Everyone appeared to be spellbound by Mike’s creative country sound with The First National Band. Mike opened with ‘Listen to the Band’ followed by ‘Little Red Rider’ and then Red Rhodes performed his first solo, ‘Rose City Chimes.’ Next Mike, in a very Jim Reeves type of manner, worked his way through ‘One Rose.’ He continued with his recent U.S. chart success, ‘Joanne,’ and this was followed by another instrumental spot featuring Red Rhodes - ‘Steel Guitar Rag.’ Then to conclude the act the pace dramatically increased for the only rock number included in the set, Chuck Berry’s ‘Nadine.’” Ray Nortrop / NME Magazine Review / Sheffield’s Baily Club 10.10.1970
