Morning Dew - THE 31st OF FEBRUARY - Video
PUBLISHED:  Oct 30, 2008
DESCRIPTION:
'The 31st of February' was formed by Jacksonville, Florida natives Scott Boyer, David Brown and Butch Trucks in 1965. Scott Boyer ended up forming the group Cowboy with Tommy Talton, David Brown ended up a studio bassist, eventually joining Santana, the Boz Scaggs Band & later, Cowboy with Boyer. He is currently a member of Norton Buffalo and the Knockouts. Butch Trucks would join Duane and Gregg Allman in The Allman Brothers Band.

From Wikipedia: "Morning Dew", also known as "(Walk Me Out in the) Morning Dew", is a post-apocalyptic folk-rock song written by Canadian singer Bonnie Dodson in 1962, that has become a standard. According to Dobson in a 1993 interview, "Morning Dew" was inspired by the film 'On the Beach'. Fred Neil heard Dobson's song and re-arranged it to suit his own style. Tim Rose heard Neil's version and then recorded his own in 1966, adding himself as co-writer. (Folks, that's just not right... what if every one doing 'cover songs' took partial writing credit?) Through a loophole in US copyright law, Rose was able to claim royalties! The song is most popularly known today as a cover by the Grateful Dead and Jeff Beck.

NEED YOUR HELP: I am uncertain regarding the artist of this version; of the information found, I believe it to be circa 1965-66 which would be: 'THE 31st OF FEBRUARY' sans Duane & Gregg. Please post your input in the comment section & my thanks in advance.

Writer Greil Marcus described parts of The ABB works as an "after-the-rain celebration... ageless, seamless... front-porch music stolen from the utopia of shared southern memory."
