This Chicago-based outfit were sued by Mountain for stealing the name.
In actual fact they had the name first but never really recovered from the law suit
which required them to state on their album cover that they were in no way connected with Mountain.
If you like The Grateful Dead you should like this album because it's very similar in style.
The title cut, in particular, includes some beautiful ringing guitar work
but almost all the tracks are good and the album, which is now rare, is recommended listening

The fiasco of the lawsuit against Mountain Bus and Good Records by the people
who represented Mountain really obscures the fact that the band created some fabulous,
atmospheric, and ambient music that at times bears a striking resemblance to the music
being created by the Grateful Dead during the same period.
Nothing, however, can obscure excellent songs, and Sundance is full of them.
Like the Grateful Dead, Mountain Bus had a communal-like closeness and were part of
a countercultural community, and like the Dead, their music was a composite of rock, country,
bluegrass, folk, and blues components, with perhaps a slightly more predominant
country influence to the Dead's bluegrass. The two bands also had tremendous
improvisatory playing capabilities in common, although Sundance might be a somewhat
better example of a band getting their live dynamic down on tape in the studio
than the Grateful Dead did on any of their early studio recordings before 1970.
The songs also vary from succinct pop and country tunes to lengthy jams
that can be otherworldly and soulful or can simply smoke...(AllMusic)
