That's a real shame as their cd packaging has been very well done up until now.
Similarly the latest Corbett vs. Dempsey cds have much "cheaper" sleeves now compared to their excellent mini lp cover style they have been using.

I saw your comment. I was just researching a few things today and came across his obituary. At least some of us remember him! I wish there were more recordings available.

Was doing some research today and stumbled across this obituary. Sad, 3 records and a handful of unreleased live recordings is all we have by him. It's great to see another photo of him. Has anyone further information or recordings?
I emailed the label last week, this was his response. Can't wait!
Hi Christopher,
We’re expecting these to be ready very soon.. there were some delays at the manufacturer but I’m told they’re back on track.. the remainder of the series will be issued before the end of February.
Best,

I've been looking for that one for a long time as well. I saw it once in person once in the late 90's but did not want to drop $35. Still kicking myself.
Got mine today and giving it a listen. Sounds good to my ears. Mark Weber's liner notes say "This is the first of a complete run of live at I.U.C.C recordings..." Let's hope more see a release!
One of the great disappointments for me was the death of the Geodesic label. They released 3 items from the CAC archives then went poof. Well worth acquiring!

A little bit of history on the CAC can be found in their "about" page. I seem to recall a few well written articles about that scene either online or in print but can't lay my hands on them right now.

There are some full concerts (streaming only) archived on the site. Worth poking around.
A totally new recording to circulation! I ordered the cd and got the download yesterday. Excellent stuff from a relatively undocumented year.
My old friend Jason Hook had a great website which is no longer active but you can access it through the wayback machine.
