I would see these guys anytime . I wish I was living in Tennessee when they were in their heyday.They would be good at the Blue Plum Festival in Johnson city TN. Plum Up Blue Plum. Get Goose Creek Symphony.

[sevpr]

I saw them in 1970 in Phoenix. So cool to see them on youtube after all these years. My ex has my vinyl. sigh.

[MsAnnestube]

I still got the 70's album with this song........timeless.....it is....

[kanga58]

While the PBS broadcast of the Bluegrass Celebration" at the Ryman Theatre, l thought about this group from the 70's and wondered if they were still around. Nice to see they reunited. Someone way back in the day turned me on to this group. Probably cause l was and am a Gratreful Dead fan ! Country road take me home, thank God l'm a country boy ! Which l am !

[Stomperofpuppies]

Right now I have this cranked up on my Yamaha HTR - 5840 piped through 6 channels of Polk speakers....sounds great....thanks for postin it !

[nailswood]

Our turntable quit working, couldn't afford a new one. Finally got one that plays vinyl and can record to disc. First thing I wanted to hear was "Welcome to Goose Creek."

[mizrboy]

[BoCorky]

Riding in the back of a friend's 61 Fairlane 500 "a little bit high" and singing this at the top of our lungs waiting of course when the 8-track changed tracks. I owned an 8-track, vinyl, recorded it on cassette & now in digital format for my iPod. Tried & true!!!! ;)

[d1sailer]

[dweeb43]

I've always loved this group, but I can't find my favorite song - "If no news is good news, then bad news will do."

[lewdwheel]

this is music

[lewdwheel]

Any one who don't like Goose Creek would suck one

[GreasyBallCap]

F, the haters!!! Saw these guys back in 1972 at App State. I was in second grade and going to gifted classes there on Saturdays. My friend and I had skipped "Creative Movement" and "Haiku 101" that day and Charlie welcomed us back behind the fence during sound check. Charlie and Pearl both gave me a pick that day and they signed our dorky Gifted and Talented T-Shirts. Eat your hearts out losers... I have Vinyl of Est. 1970, Welcome To Goose Creek, Words of Earnest & Acoustic Goose

[cjones42379]

[GreasyBallCap]

Charles Gearheart "Charlie" - lead vocal, acoustic guitar

Paul Spradlin "Pearl" - electric guitar, vocals

Bob Henke "Willard" - electric guitar.vocals

Fred Weisz "Flying Fred" - fiddle

Doug Haywood - bass

[mcmullin1981]

I am the Earth isnt on youtube....anyone have it to load?

[johnjwilkins]

Damn that's fine!! Been a Goose fanatic since I was introduced to their music in 1972.

[rjraab]

Who's Goose Creek?.......I didn't know until I saw them at the Shed in Maryville TN a couple of months ago. What a show! I'm hooked.

[ffchatter]

years ago somebody sold me their records so they could go out west.when they came back i said they could have all 200 back i just wanted the goose creek albums. live in england now , still love their music.

[Lindahenning]

How did we not all meet ? Same story here, saw them several times at bluegrass concerts in mid atlantic somewhere. I must go find and download this music.

[PooPoo2U]

@Lindahenning: probably all just had a bit too much wine to remember, haha

[zitlight73]

I miss those days of total freedom back in '73 zooming across the country like Neal Cassidy and Goose Creek was right there in the eight track tape machine. Didn't think those days would ever come to an end. I feel sorry for the kids nowadays graduating into a world of lowered expectations and crappy music.

[mommaoftwinboys]

been listening since i was little and i still love it.....

[johninloveindaytona]

I saw the Goose somewhere down East in North Carolina sometime in 1970. Then, when Charlie and Pearl put the band back together, I would go seen them play around Nashville. Have been up to Goose on the Lake a few times.
