Last Buffalo /// January 10, 2007 12:50 AM /// dispatch from Chris!
After a few months of silence, The Pathways are back and ready to release their second album, Gray Blaze, on the Athens, Georgia CDR-label Asaurus Records. The record was recorded just prior to second drummer Mike Dempsy's departure from the band and features many live favorites from the Boat of Confidence days. One of them is this, "Last Buffalo", a David Yourdon-helmed tune featuring an Evan Kindley-led middle-eight. Mike's steady backbeat keeps the song trotting along while Leo Goldsmith's twisting basslines suffiently jazz things up. Oh, and there's enough explosive guitar interplay to make any diehard Pathways fan happy. Once the record is released, we'll be sure to stock it in the RiYL Store. In the meantime, enjoy this preview!
