Reviewed: 2020—02-20 Genre: Jazz FCCs: none Review: In ‘60s San Francisco, the AOC was the only all-female band, now they have reformed 50 years later. This is a set of mostly upbeat infectious songs. Several musicians from that era sit in. If You Like: Joy of Cooking, Stoneground, Mother Earth Track Review (favorites denoted by *): 1/ Introduction – spoken intro **2/ Feel Good (with Jack Casady & Pete Sears) – vocal starts> bouncy uptempo song> fade on vocal 3/ Pretty Boy - keyboards start> midtempo song> fade on vocal *4/ Fantasy 1 & 4 (with Jack Casady) – drums start> uptempo song> fade **5/ Circles – guitar starts> uptempo song> guitar solo> fade on vocal 6/ We Can’t Go Back Again – guitar starts> slow tempo song> fade *7/ The Well (feat. Bob Weir) – guitar starts> midtempo song> slow fade on vocal 8/ Taste Of One – organ starts> slow tempo song with beautiful shared vocals> fade *9/ Mama’s Love (with Jorma Kaukonen & Charlie Musselwhite) – drums/harmonica start> midtempo blues> guitar/harmonica duet to fade **10/ Simplicity (with Jorms Kaukonen & Pete Sears) – guitar starts> slow tempo song swings to fast tempo> crescendo end **11/ Feel It In The Air -synth starts> slow tempo song builds in volume> fade Disc 2 12/ Interlude: Transistor – like a radio switching channels 13/ Stones – guitar starts> rocking uptempo song> guitar solo> uptempo song> slow fade Red House Stories 14/ Interlude: Baby from the Forest of Knolls – (vocal intro) *15/ Life In Your Hands (feat. Taj Mahal) - vocal starts> slow acapella gospel song with shared vocals> quick stop 16/ Macushia – Irish pipes start> midtempo song with Irish vibe > fade 17/ Thelina – percussion starts> midtempo song with chorus> fade n vocal *18/ As The Rain (feat.
