@ Dan Myers... thanx for capturing this great performance on video, but here's a suggestion... FNO drink less alcohol before filming. Then maybe you can hold the cam steady for once.
I can't believe how good they still sound live. Saw them once in 1981 in the D.C. area and they were one of the tightest bands in concert I've heard. Still have the polished musicianship sound...Have to catch them again soon!..
Probably the most under rated band to come out of the Rock Prog movement in the 70’s and 80’s! Great band, I had the privilege of seeing them on many occasions in Youngstown Ohio. Great Memories! Should be in the R&R Hall Of Fame!
Go squeeze yourself, you oozing anal wart - first off im pretty sure the physics of that are impossible, how can a wart squeeze itself. second of all.. unless your trying to be all mysterious and metaphorical.. in which case right on bro.... at least this shitty bands fan base can be creative
My band opened up for BE Taylor Group back in mid 80's, and when we got to the gig and these guys were the band behind him (sans Polumbo) the bass player in my band and I (lead guitar) had to go change our shorts! FREAKED OUT it was these guys! May as well have been the Beatles. BIG FANS!!
sorry phish has made a name for themselfs and Ive never heard of these guys.... Maybe if they do some more phish covers they can make some dough on lot.....
@rebubula0220 Phish has made a name for themselves? Well alot of sideshow freaks get their 15 minutes. Calling them a Phish ripoff shows how little you actually know about this band. Check some history before throwing some ill fated barb at this band again
Phish rip off.THATS FUNNY.These guys could be the parents of any member of phish.More like Phish stole this from them it seems to me.These guys have rocked Baltimore for a very long time.and still are till this day.Long Live CTS
I remember my brother coming home with this record in the 70's that started out "this band has come all the way down from an acid trip just to play for you please welcome crack the sky" or something like that... Hold On was the song, I think the album was called CTS Live. I've loved these guys ever since.
METAL fan? If so you need 97 Underground (worldwide), where Metal lives online.
If you loved the old Underground you will bang to Metal on Metal 24/7 and commercial free.
Check out the internets best online metal radio station at: 97underground com
The Underground wants to hear from you, send them an email and tell them what you think of the new Underground. Turn on, tune in, bang your head today.
OK, let's say Rick was 20 when the first CTS album came out in 1975. So 33 years on he would be 53 or 54, and he still sounds this good. One of the best ever, and I mean that.
