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".

Also a featured performer on the Album, our good friend Pita came over to play with us. He's leads a band called Unity (the Band) in the Fox Valley. Actually, you can catch them all over the Midwest, and Fiji. And you should, they're that good. In fact, they're the Straight Goods!

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