Marshall Tucker Band To Release Vintage Recordings

Band unearths rare 37 year old live concert recordings.

Just when you thought you had it all when it comes to the legendary Marshall Tucker Band, they are coming out with a historic recording from their 1977 Englishtown, New Jersey concert that reportedly drew more than 150,000 fans. Live From Englishtown is set to hit the marketplace on September 30, 2014 via the band's Ramblin' Records and will be distributed nationally through RED Distribution.

"The 1977 Englishtown concert was one of the largest shows in the history of The Marshall Tucker Band," say MTB's founding member and lead vocalist, Doug Gray. "This album was made from a copy of the original 37-year-old recording and although the audio quality is not perfect, we wanted to make it commercially available to our fans.  Our best efforts were used to make this live concert sound as good as we possibly could with the source we had on-hand. This concert is a historic event, attended by tens of thousands of fans. These recordings will give fans and those who attended a chance to relive that special day by hearing the original MTB lineup in its prime."

The 70-minute concert originally recorded on September 3, 1977 features the original band performing their biggest hits including, "Can't You See," "Heard It In A Love Song," "Fire On The Mountain," "24 Hours At A Time" and "Searchin' For A Rainbow," among others.

"Looking back, this concert was just unbelievable," Gray reflects. "It was one of the most moving experiences in the history of The Marshall Tucker Band."
