Excellent, I always pass on a copy of this at my local thrift store tht has been sitting there for at least a year. I always nearly buy it but then put it back, it’s almost become a ritual.

You’re not missing much, but it’s sorta fun for what it is.

I’m pretty sure they made these from the late 60s through the 70s, and they are all heavy on the classic rock radio jams.

The band’s anthem in the 70s when my mom was going there was Free - All Right Now.

i love the leland stanford marching band. kris, i don’t have this one…can you get it for me?

btw, these were stanford kids, not a jr varsity band…college kids.

their arranger is phenom on the 2 lps i have. Otis fodder put up one of their tracks on the 365 days.

At the angry bald man’s shop?

YES in fact in any thrift / flea / amiable record store etc i wouldn’t have thought twice about grabbing it…

i think he thought i was trying to shoplift which is virtually impossible in a store that size to begin with … bad vibes!

Ok -located behind a dsty (of course) self made particle board rack in the middle of a hot afternoon -agree with hcrink -not missing much here - although ‘Conquistador’ has something sinister in it’s grooves..
