I've been looking for WR stuff off and on for about ten years. I gave up a few years ago, but patience is rewarded. Saw them live about four times in Chicago.

I miss Wilderness Road. I saw them perform at University of Chicago in 1971 (with their electric cross) and still enjoy listening to their eponymous first record. This video is proof that they had the chops.
