"est. 1970" by Goose Creek Symphony (1970)
CLASSIC ALBUM OF THE WEEK
Goose Creek Symphony "est. 1970"  1970 (USA)
Are they the most country "psychedelic band" of all time, or the most psychedelic "country band" of all time? Goose Creek Symphony play extremely downhome backporch pickin' and grinnin' old-timey country style music, but then they periodically launch into heavy Cream-style jams, and freely incorporate studio trickery and backwards tracks to make their records even groovier. The LP est. 1970, as in the band was "established" that year, was the group's debut and the blueprint for their classic run of albums. The main songwriter and foundational member of the group is one Charles Gearheart, who still leads a version of the band today! I am pretty sure GCS is the longest-running "jam band" in America, having outlasted the Grateful Dead by nearly 20 years (and counting).
