This is a collection of a large number of the best and most iconic Cloudland Jams of all time, and is derived through sorting through 10 years of old recordings and all of the Cloudland Jam sessions from 2015-2023. 
All Materials are performed live and typically unrehearsed as improv and are never performed exactly the same again. All Lyrics are made up there or brought with us in our minds and thoughts (aside from a couple of cover live versions)
Larry Phillabaum is the sound engineer and main set up guru and mix master. Larry also plays Guitar, Organ, Synth, Bass and Drums, so he typically jumps around alot.

Larry Phillabaum- Host, Guitars, Bass, Drums and Keys, Plus he does the mix both live and recorded and the final edits. This time he added video elements as well which was a great touch.

Steve Cloud's 70th Memorial Birthday Jam Party , 25.4.25

Really tight and emotionally charged improv jam recorded live no retakes at Cloudland in 2019 with a troupe of musicians from all walks and places. Amazing how everyone just follows one another and compliments all. 
Great song, so nicely jammed. Compliments to Antione on Keys and Anthony on Drums who really really make it shine! Dave rocks in with Guitar solos galore.

Bad Dreams

Sept. 30th, 2023- Two and a half hours of unrehearsed improv. jam session songs performed by a long-standing group of musicians, plus several long time players and a few old friends who chip in. This Cloudland Jam session honored our fallen friend, Steve Cloud, who was our beloved and generous host and also a great piano and guitar player, we loved his slide work!
Marshall Carlson, lead vocals and drums on several tracks (and back up vocals on other tracks). Antoine Reynolds on Synth, Organ, Fender Rhodes, Clavicord Keys. Eric Geer joins for a few tunes on Drums, and guitar. Ricco Caliendo on vocals on "She's Electric" and "Dont Waste my time" with MC, on and secondary vocs on Long Time Baby. Impeccable soul, funk, and Jazz drumming by Anthony Jones in the second half on and off. Joe Ledger smoothly paces early and late songs on Bass, and amazing Chris Liddell slapping that bad bad man's Jazz-funk bass. Dave handles lead guitar jams and rhythm guitars when needed. Larry Phillabaum the master technician on Guitars, foot pedal effects extraordinaire, keys, and sometimes bass, drums! Additionally, Larry is the jam's producer and editor. In total, 9 band members swapped instruments as the night went on, nothing was planned nor rehearsed. I'm sure Stevo was watching from his lofty condo in the sky! I have cut this 2.5 hour WAV file jam into some of the better tracks on MP3s. The rest may be added as edited. please enjoy...more older jams to come!
