Aquarium Rescue Unit: The Calling
by George Graham

(Inio Music As broadcast on WVIA-FM 10/22/2003)
http://georgegraham.com/audio/aqrescue.ram for an audio review
Since the mid 1990s, jam bands have really come into their own. Thanks to a combination of the rediscovery of the Grateful Dead by a younger generation just before Jerry Garcia's passing, and the surprising popularity of Phish, who seemed to inherit a fair portion of the Dead's audience, rock groups known for their extended instrumental improvisations have become a genre unto themselves, with jam band festivals and emerging groups appearing all over the country. Because being a jam band is relatively easy in principle, the ranks of jam bands are filled with some second-rate groups who can get up on stage and noodle away at their instruments, which may satisfy audiences who listen with, let say, some chemical modification. But the jam band field has also attracted groups such as the String Cheese Incident that demonstrate outstanding musicianship, often considerably better than the groups that started doing that kind of thing in the 1960s.

The Calling
A Review by Rob Johnson
Imagine a supergroup featuring the bass player for the Allman Brothers, the guitarist for The Dead, the keyboard player from the Derek Trucks Band, one of the best drummers around and a steel-voiced singer with pipes down
to his knees.
Sound like a fantasy? Well, it actually happened. Unfortunately, this band was tragically overlooked at the time, but The Calling does much to resurrect their glory. The usual music business nonsense prevented this album from seeing daylight back when it was recorded, which played a
big part in the demise of the Aquarium Rescue Unit as a functioning entity. Hearing this album now, many years later, is the musical equivalent of the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, a great lost testament by some of the leading musical prophets of our age.
