Notes: This is the first time I had ever heard or seen Banyan, so I have
no idea what the song titles are; but bits of Dark Star, Third Stone from
the Sun and Little Drummer Boy appear during the show. Having never
seen/heard Banyan and seeing them at Quixote's in Denver, I expected some
kind of folksy Deadhead-type hippie band. I was quite surprised!
The sound on this recording is very good. My primary complaints are that
the bass is too low in parts (it's a small venue) and when an unknown
rapper/singer takes the stage during one track of set 2, it sounds like
his microphone may have had a short as there are a number of clicks and
pops while he's on stage.
Other than that, the music is very interesting. They are definitely NOT
a folksy Deadhead-type hippie band.
Enjoy!
