Chasing The Sun is probably the mellowest of their CDs. So, if you reasoanbly like this one, but want to hear a harder blues edge, the ones in the aforementioned post are their "edgier" efforts...especially the live one. It really isn't live; it's recorded "live" in a studio. Its as if someone turned on the recorder and said "well, play!" P.I.

Well better than mine that's for sure. I didn't know we decided to go the same day, but what a good decision the older brother made, huh? Do you remember being searched for knives and guns at the door? At that time we had only flown in a plane a couple of times at most, so a security check was a total novelty. The flat bed trailer was genius and as far as capacity goes, I'm thinking it was closer to 500 because we walked pretty close to the front without much trouble at all. Funny enough I had a semi deja vu moment when I saw Built To Spill (another band you should really check out!!! Try "Keep it like a secret" first) play in Milwaukee. The venue was the Rave which basically was a flat concrete floored hull that felt just like the SRV show. I knew from my friends at co-op that he was probably show up at a bar and play a late night set, but since both of us were teens it was a no go from the start. Indigenous! Dude, let me know if you like it because they play Madison at least once a year. You can bop up for it. They also play 'em all the time on the native american radio station out of the Lac Court Oreille reservation by Hayward WI - WOJB. CP Wow PI, you’ve got a good memory.

I got their latest album only because when I logged in, it only had two hours left. Their others had several days left and I was anxious after your recommendation and reading a review on Amazon.

Ever hear of the group Indigenous? The guitarist, Mato, is a cross between Stevie and Jimmy. The current CD is a bit more mellow, but CDs of theirs such as Long Way Home, Live at Pachyderm Studios and Things That We Do make you wonder if there is some sort of reincarnation going on. Have seen this group in concert twice and the guy can really shred a Strat. Hey, P.I.
