Umphrey's McGee--free prog sampler download

A Message from Umphrey's McGee:

In the two months since the release of Mantis, we've been overwhelmed with the
attention and appreciation from the progressive rock community. We admire the
rich tradition that the community has, and the respect they have for many of the
same artists that have had a lasting influence on us as well. We've been
privileged to share the stage with such heroes as Adrian Belew, Mike Keneally,
Joshua Redman and Stanley Jordan in recent years. Songs from King Crimson,
Billy Cobham, Pink Floyd, Return to Forever and other progressive rock & fusion
icons continue to make their way into our ever expanding covers repertoire.

Our latest album "Mantis" has been touted as our most progressive studio album,
and we are very proud of how it turned out. We were glad to take the time and
flesh out our compositional approach on Mantis, and wound up with an album that
stretched our songwriting and playing to levels we hadn't been able to produce
in the studio before.

While we enjoyed the experience of taking our time in the studio, much of the
Umphrey's McGee experience happens on-stage where we live 120+ nights a year.
The challenge of reproducing some of our demanding compositions live while
leaving room for both loose and structured improvisation brings out the best in
us, and we encourage you to come and experience it with us.

We wanted to let you know that Jake, Kris and Joel have embarked on a new
project, OHMphrey (http://myspace.com/ohmphrey), with OHM's Chris Poland and
Robertino Pagliari. This project is rooted in progressive improvisation, and
will release an album and support it with a few west coast shows. Furthermore,
another improvisational fusion side project of ours, Kick the McGee, is thrilled
to be teaming up with Morglbl from France for a show in Chicago @ Martyrs' on
5/20.

As a token of our appreciation, we're offering a free digital sampler of the
"proggier" side of Umphrey's McGee to the progressive rock community, though
it's really a little bit of everything to help provide context of the grander
scheme of who we are as a band. In this sampler, you'll find a heavy-dose of
prog-metal in Wizard Burial Ground, while a slice of the improvisation and
instrumental dexterity that UM is well known for resides inside Higgins. An
electric re-working of Safety In Numbers' acoustic End of the Road is a band
favorite, and to give you a taste of some our our playing with special guests
you'll hear Adrian Belew lending his guitar to King Crimson's Red and Mike
Keneally stopping by for some extended on-stage antics and guitar pyrotechnics
on Ringo. We've also included a bonus video of "Out of Order" from our PBS
Soundstage performance.

You can check out all the details of how to download it as well as the background to this concert by heading over to DGMLive. Cheers, Sid

I don't want to come across as lazy but does any have links to there live videos free for download?

I've been looking and I can't seem to find any.

Perhaps I'll post this question elsewhere.

I don't know if this has been mentioned before but Buckyball Music has some free downloads of some songs from jazz and jazz rock artists, including Brand X and Tunnels.
