This new album from Widespread Panic will certainly be the last one with Michael Houser, guitar player, as he recently passed away. It's been recorded in their hometown, Athens, GA during their 2000 sring tour, on April 1 to 3. This 3 cd album really gives you an idea of what the band is on stage, a jam band with the typical improvisations and the jamming with friends. They have many of them appearing on stage, Chuck Leavell, Yonrico Scott from the Derek Trucks Band, Derek Trucks, Colonel Bruce Hampton among others. Besides playing their music, they also play some covers such as "Ride Me High" by JJ Cale and "Red Hot Mama" by George Clinton. So if you're in this kind of music, Grateful Dead's oriented music, this album should be on your shelves.
