Marshall Tucker Band-Live from Spartansburg SC




Just releasesd May 28th 2013. My first listen to this was today.

As a fan I just had to get this live recording and what a treat it is. Along with Paul Riddle, Jerry Eubanks, Charlie Daniels you get the great guitar work of Hughie Thomasson and Chris Hicks in a show to induct the band into the South Carolina Hall of Fame where Marshall Tucker belongs. The recording is very good and the performance is high energy. It's not the same as having Toy and Tommy in the mix, and that will never happen again, but it is a really good live record to add to the many Tucker live recordings I already have. Thank you Charlie for playing with the band that night and having the late Hughie Thomasson playing with them is just so special. The landscape of my favorite southern rock bands has really changed, though not completely over with and it's nice to have something like this waiting at my door when I got home. Long live this pioneers of Souther Rock. R.I.P. Tommy and Toy, George McCorkle and Hughie Thomasson you have left us with such wonderful music and concerts that have touched our lives forever!!!!
