Elk Bugles

Think of the pre-2000 music history of Colorado and depending on your age you might immediately think of John Denver and Judy Collins. Or maybe your thoughts turn to The Astronauts Big Head Todd & the Monsters Firefall or the String Cheese Incident. While the state is known for many successful recording artists it is also home to many unacknowledged singers and bands who released small label shellac and vinyl recordings and then became lost in the music history of Colorado. Elk Bugles recognizes almost 3000 lesser-known bands singers and recordings from the Rocky Mountain State in a detailed collector's guidebook of more than 6000 records listed complete with photos.
