On any post, if the link is no longer good, leave a comment if you want the music re-uploaded. As long as I still have the file, or the record, cd, or cassette to re-rip, I will gladly accommodate in a timely manner all such requests.

  3. the fantastic Larry Coryell getting into some live Sonny Sharrock outsider psychedelic rock..,but with a grass-lawn dull professional rhythm section.. even so, Larry Coryell just kills on the outsider guitar improvisations....a great listen from start to ...never end on repeat.

    1. Coryell's self-titled first album is also great, but this is the true gem & indeed too short. Good to hear from you again.
