I would like to hear them again also. They are one of my favorites to play their musical arrangements. The current band is not quite as good as the originals (listening on Youtube) without the singer (Cory Wells, I think) and the drummer who had a special way of playing that I never heard before or since. He just added that extra sparkle. If you play the original song and then play their later performances side by side you can tell the difference but that might be a musician's take since we listen to all parts extra closely. I still have the leftover drumsticks he broke while playing (and he broke a lot of them) and the only one he did not break (benefits of working on stage with them). He used to toss the broken pieces out to the audience. They loved it. That was about 1969. Too bad you don't remember how good that concert was, but I understand!
