Unfortunately, Lyman passed before we were able to release the record but I’ll never forget our conversations and his stories. The Lyman Woodard Organization Saturday Night Special album is in my top five albums of all times. The grittiness and Lo Fi sound definitely don’t subtract from the soulful essence of this recording.
