Widespread Panic Chronology | ||
Another Joyous Occasion (2000) | Don't Tell the Band (2001) | Live in the Classic City (2002) |
Don't Tell the Band, Widespread Panic's 7th studio album, was released on June 19, 2001 (see 2001 in music). The album covered a wide variety of styles, from rock to Latin and grunge to soul, yet did not depart from this jam band's signature sound.
Randall Bramblett, a solo musician and member of Steve Winwood's touring band, joined Widespread Panic on the tenor saxaphone for a cover of fIREHOSE's "Sometimes."
"Big Wooly Mammoth," a long-time crowd favorite sung by John "JoJo" Herman, was finally brought to the studio for this release.
Unknown at the time, this would be Michael Houser's last studio album with Widespread Panic, before his cancer-related death in 2002.
