A double-disc set comprised of recordings from the 1990s, On The Blue Road (Gonzo Multimedia) is soaked to the bone with talent — and for logical reasons.
Featuring guitarist Merrell Fankhauser (whose credits date back to the ’60s with noted California groups such as the Impacts, Fapardorkly, and HMS Bounty, followed by MU and numerous solo efforts) and Spirit drummer Ed Cassidy (who sadly passed on in December of 2012), Fankhauser Cassidy Band is a classic rock fan’s ticket to eden. Jefferson Starship keyboardist Pete Sears, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band mandolin maestro John McEuen, the late great MU bassist Larry Willey, vocalist and guitarist Tim Fankhauser (Merrell’s son), drummer Art Dougall, vocalist Valerie Johnson, guitarist Larry Curtis, pianist Jim Enos, saxophonist and harmonica man Bruce Clark, and bassists Leroy Fisher and Keith Frasher also submit their mojo to the sessions.
Loaded with exceptional performances emphasizing not only each musician’s individual strength, but the dynamics of democracy, On The Blue Road is a loose and lively affair.
