The Caboose Gets Loose



Here's a slightly non-traditional bluegrass band album from 1981. Besides the influences sneaking in from 70's pop and rock, it is an Ambisonic Recording (i.e., early surround-sound format). Unfortunately, i don't own any Ambisonic decoding gear, but it sounds fine in stereo.

Loose Caboose - Stay All Night (AMB 5203)

Stay All Night
Someday Soon
Peaceful Easy Felling
Dancing In The meadow
Hobo's Lullaby
Johnson Boys
Kickin' Mule

I've Just Seen A Face
Over The Waterfall
If He's Gone
Midnight Flyer
Sweet Baby James
Orange Blossom Special
Wee Wee Pot

A story from their reunion show 22 years later that also gives details about the formation of the band:

Is it possible to purchase this album? Mine was damaged, in a recent move.
