History

edit

Good Old Koerner, Ray & Glover is a collection of live recordings from the trio's performances at the St. Olaf College folk festivals in 1963 and 1964. It was 24 years before their next release. The album is out of print.

Reception

edit

Steve Knopper, in MusicHound Blues: The Essential Album Guide, called the album a good one for listeners to explore after hearing the group's debut record Blues, Rags and Hollers, calling it "a nice comeback record, although the trio’s time had clearly come and gone."[2]
