Their first recording. I remember the cassette had the three bonus tracks that were on the CD including the 26 minute jam &#8220;Union Federal&#8221;. Self released on cassette in 1989, Electra released it on cassette and CD in 1992. This first vinyl release is a 5 sided set with a tri-fold cover from Record Store Day 2012. I did not buy it then but about 8 years ago. Another record I missed when doing my alphabetical count. The best songs are the ones with less of their dumb lyrics and more instrumentation and also the longest ones.  These are &#8220;You Enjoy Yourself&#8221;, &#8220;The Divided Sky&#8221; &#8220;Fluffs Travels&#8221; and &#8220;David Bowie&#8221; that has the best jam. Page McConnell&#8217;s piano seems to be the main instrument here, would rather here more of Trey&#8217;s guitar which is best heard on &#8220;David Bowie&#8221;. A studio album but not too bad. I try to stay away from studio albums from Jam bands. The live ones are always the best. This is the last of my Jam Band records unless I buy another one before this is done. Would like to find ones by Dave Matthews Band, Widespread Panic, Moe, or String Cheese Incident but haven&#8217;t found any yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I bought this cassette sometime in the early 90&#8217;s.
