A rare early date as a leader from pianist Walter Bishop Jr – cut for a tiny east coast label that folded almost as soon as the record was issued – but a date that's gone onto great fame over the years, thanks to circulation in a few different formats!

The dawn of the 90s debut of the Black Crowes!

A great little record that came out a few years ago and never got the success it deserved.
