Love these so much. Been following them since "The Bairns". Innovative and never afraid to try something different whilst keeping the folk flag flying. The title track to this is quite stunning with heavy jazz influences.

I saw Earth, Wind & Fire in '72 or '73 when they opened for Foghat, and they stole the show! 

Have a great time and a Happy Birthday! (better a little early then late)

Hootie & the Blowfish - Fairweather Johnson

Just love Darius Rucker's vocals......

Haven't seen any Hootie on here for a while, and it's a very long time since I've played this album. I think I first discovered this band from a  Jools Holland show. A good source to discover new musicians like this.

Serious bass workout for the speakers!

Wonderful CD, I fully recommend it.  Works, Interpretation, Direction  & SQ  all superb.

He died way too young.
