First Flight
by Chris Forsyth / Dave Harrington / Ryan Jewell / Spencer Zahn
supported by 27 fans who also own “Joy Ride”
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.
