Jupiter Coyote's sound on this particular LP is unmistakable and unique. The group fuses the sounds of rock, folk, and a strong vein of bluegrass to define what is becoming known as "mountain rock" - a title dubbed from their origins in North Carolina. Of all the Jupiter LP's, this is their most impressive work. Lucky Day is a pleasant set by the always-touring Southern jammers -- Jupiter Coyote. The band is obviously attempting to follow in the Allman Brothers' footsteps. Lucky Day is produced by Johnny Sandlin, who worked on several early Allman albums, and has plenty of Allman-ish slide guitar. The band also borrows some Allman lyrics for the way-too-long title song. Although the album contains no music that rises to the level of the ABB's catalog, there is not a bad song on Lucky Day. -- Tim Griggs -- Recorded at Duck Tape Studios, Decatur, Alabama on December 5-22, 1994 and January 2-13, 1995.
