Jersey Swamp Cats
"Downtown After Sundown" summer concert series
Spiotta Park
South Orange, NJ
Aug. 10, 2019

Excellent AUD recording


TheCommish notes:
If you like old school rhythm and blues that features lots of great guitar and keyboard work (check the setlist), then look no further!

In all fairness, the band had two fill-in members on this particular evening so there may be some small mistakes or miscommunications in some songs. Despite this, I had a great time and really enjoyed the music. Looking forward to seeing them again.

Also: The band handed out FREE copies of their new CD, "Go Cat Go!" to everyone in the small-but-intimate audience. I'm guessing Gerry probably handed out at least 50-60 CDs during the course of the show. VERY generous and very much appreciated!

If you like this torrent, won't you please take a moment to post a comment on the board? It only takes a moment, and believe me, it takes A LOT longer to prepare/upload a show for others to enjoy than it does to download and run.
