One of Goose's best shows of 2019 gets a vinyl release. While not the full concert, it features the great Arcadia, Hot Tea>Take On Me, and Teaprise. My favorite moment is the crowd's reaction when the synthesizer riff for Take On Me hits. jelliottrobinson

With Moby making its presence felt on the Summer 2021 tour, this album is definitely more than just a series of sound checks or practice session jams. Highlights for me are Moby, Camino I and II, and Valkyrie. jelliottrobinson

First Flight

supported by 29 fans who also own “Best Reason To Buy The Sun”

Now to spin this and take flight. As a former card carrying member of jamband scene this would have fit nicely back in the late 60's-70's and the late 90's-00's when improvisational jams were king. This is going to take the scene into another direction with Garcia Peoples. Vinyl Purchased 10/3/20. Arrived 10/26/20. The Midnight Toker.
