Although Orpheus was known as a Boston group, nearly all of its members - and half of Orpheus Reborn - were originally from Worcester, MA. Congress Alley was in Worcester. "Rock Baby Rock" A History of early Worcester music

History of Worcester music, Part 2 http://www.worcestermag.com/archives/2003/09-25-03/Cover.htm
The above two articles have been re-run in Worcester Magazine's "30th Anniversary Edition, October 26, 2006. They've been expanded a bit, include more photos, and there are two more parts to the saga. The entire set is available online as three .pdf files. A nice photo of the Blue Echoes is in the first, with the accompanying text in the second. Orpheus and Steve's group Congress Alley are mentioned in the third.
They can be viewed here:
