DESCRIPTION:
http://www.slyjoemusic.com . Sly Joe & the Smooth Operators perform with their mighty megaband on a beautiful Midwestern Summer night. Celebration was in the air as they officially released a new album to the universe..."THE STRAIGHT GOODS".

Originally featured on the "Surrounded by the Heart" Album, Beach Party has become somewhat of an anthem for a generation of sun-worshipping beach buddies. Check out that Bari Sax solo by renowned Fox Valley Beach Expert, Jake Crowe.

The event was Waterfest in Oshkosh, WI, and The Smooth Ops held the slot position tightly for Rusted Root to follow. 28 July 2011
