how
to order this cd
(available for download,
too)
Recorded in the Fall of 2007, this CD is a new take on a
dozen of my earlier songs.
All the songs on this CD were written and first recorded in the decade of
1987-97. A lot of songs here are much-requested audience favorites. Many of them
have changed slightly over the years -- a new line here, a new attitude
there. Some were only available as "live" cuts before.
This is a new "studio" recording, but is straightforward recording: no
gimmicks or fancy edits. Two of the songs, "Hopelessly
Midwestern" and "Duct Tape Blues" have monologues embedded -- in
the old folk days we called this a "rap." (That word had different meaning
then.) I had fun giving these songs a new spin in
the studio -- I hope you have fun with them on the flip side.
