Original seeder's comments:
I received this tape back in 1982 from the same guy who did the Art Pepper interviews I seeded awhile back.
He was friends with the soundman, and received a 1st gen tape, so mine is 2nd generation. I don't believe this
has ever circulated. The Lighthouse was a landmark jazz club for many, many years. I hope you enjoy this...
the early set from the band's closing night performance at this legendary club.

Joe Farrell is one of the forgotten artists of the 60s, 70s and early 80s....he was an original member of
Return To Forever, but is most known for his albums on the CTI label. A good listen here, with a wonderful
rhythm section that will be an eye-opener to many.


*Goody's comments:
Tracks 1-2 were ~37 cents sharp.
Tracks 3-5 were ~64 cents sharp.
Tracks 6-7 were ~93 cents sharp.

The Lighthouse has since been remodeled and is currently open for business 7 nights a week with a wide selection of musical offerings.
