What a great piece! The entire set of articles, the videos, the posting of interviews - just great! I only had a few minutes to look for something on the RMN site, and spent hours. In this time when local reporting from newspapers is disappearing, what a great surprise to find. Marc and The Rocky are to be congratulated. Bravo.

I graduated from Denver's TJ HS in 1970 and moved to Boulder. The music scene was strong then, Tommy Bolin played lots, as did Joe Walsh who would play around the foothills of Boulder in old barns, working on an album he always jokingly called "Barnstorm"; when it came out it was a distillation of the best of those times (which is his best album by far). The stories about Caribou made it become a legend even then, a Shangri-La hidden in the Boulder hills.

Everyone knew about Caribou, and no one knew about Caribou.

Thanks for filling in and bringing back great memories, even if I was just a fan back then. Now I actually know something about what I always wondered about for all these years.
