Recorded at First United Methodist Church, Pittsfield, Mass, on August 25th, 2006 --- just as John Hall was preparing to win his seat in the U.S. Congress and Fly Amero was returning to the band as his replacement ... for the second time. The concert footage runs the gamut of material from the very early days of Orleans all the way up to some previously unrecorded tunes.
In addition to the music, the band offers insights and perspectives on the long and winding Orleans road, through interview footage interspersed throughout.
To top it off, there are TWO special feature extras: The band’s amazing performance of America’s National Anthem (The Star- Spangled Banner) at Boston’s Fenway Park AND the hilarious comedic blues tune, “Mall Cop”, featuring Fly Amero.
In the first shot of the audience, the guy in the center with the All Access pass around his neck is Sherman Kelly --- the writer of this great tune and brother of the late Wells Kelly.

As band leader and the voice of Orleans, he brings together a classy roster of his contemporaries --- all well-recognized voices from some of the hottest acts of the 70s era and beyond. At any given gig, singer/artists like Jimi Jamison (Survivor), Dave Jenkins (Pablo Cruise), Joe Lynn Turner (Deep Purple), Peter Rivera (Rare Earth), Robbie Dupree, David Pack (Ambrosia), Joey Molland (Badfinger), John Ford Coley ... and so on join Larry on stage for a non-stop show of "All Hits, All the Time!"
