Succotash 1970

In 1969 – 1971, a merry band of brothers knows as Succotash traveled from Colorado College to London to play rock n’ roll, blues, country and any other good music we could find. In 1971, a gifted engineer recorded 7 tracks with the band in a small 8-track studio in South London. The tracks were later mixed and mastered at CBS (Columbia) Records Studios in London.

Thanks to the Everist family for being the keepers of the flame – all 7 tracks were digitally remastered by Evan Everist in 2009 as a 60th birthday present to his proud papa.

Thanks to John Everist, Harry Castleman, Ken Ormond and Henri Schauffler for a great ride and some great music.
