This got leaked/shared to YouTube today, so I thought I may as well clue you all in as well. I am humbled and a bit proud, if I may say, that a friend decided it was worth sharing with the world. I just hope I can continue to make better music, now that I am back in my home town, and finally hooked up with my friends who I have been playing music with for 40+ years. Never know what turns that life has in store for you. I was all but given up a couple of years ago, now life is looking bright again. I sincerely hope you enjoy this. I love you all.

A couple of technical notes/disclaimers/excuses... This was done at home, on a 4 track cassette recorder. Guitars and vocals were bounced down on 3 of the tracks, and the 4rth track was used as a sync signal to a MIDI keyboard, to trigger the rest of the instruments in real time as the final mix was produced. At the time, (1991), it was pretty high-tech stuff.
There are many things I would do differently, and plenty of errors/tones that I would correct if I could. You are somewhat committed to 'it is what it is', during this type of recording process.
Final shameless self-plug: Yes, I wrote, performed, recorded, and engineered the entire thing myself, with the exception of two lines of lyrics in 'Haircut Blues' attributed to my ex.
