Love them.....high point of our youth;several of us would memorize some and serenade each other in the schoolyard,laughing like idiots [ maybe we were/are ] ...their two "straight" lp's of jazz instrumentals, "playin'it straight" and "It aint necesarily square" are now available together on one CD,if you scan the net for better music sources [ Amazon,Elderly,etc ].. Best show I ever saw was at the Mariposa festival back in the early eighties[I think]....Jethro and Steve Goodman did a set,when they finished they found they had to fill another half hour...they called up the great Canadian folk player "Valdy",put a Fender electric bass on his neck,and they just went nuts riffing off each other...the ovation went on forever,it seemed....
