So I am letting the PC pick older albums at random so we don’t end up with a bunch of 5 star albums in the collection of reviews.
But the computer is on a little streak of picking some great releases.
This one has a special place for me. I had never heard of Galahad before this introduction by Joel Craig at RosFest. Stu and company just blew us away. I have been a fan ever since. This live album is maybe a good place to start for you too if you never heard of the band.
This live album was in support of the wonderful empires never last album which is another great gateway album for progressive rock.
This band does have an open invitation to get an all expense paid trip to Chicago because of albums like this one.
