I seen him play at Albany State near as me to you in the early '80s.

We were laying around our dorm one fall day when a friend burst in and said "Dickie Fucking Betts is playing 200 yards from here and no one is there!" We trotted over to find a very poorly promoted Dickie Betts playing from a small stage to about 50 people.

It was. Pure luck that our friend walked by and knew enough to recognize him and cared enough to let us know.
