August 2007
This was a departure for me in 1 major way. I decided to lose the keyboards on this album. No keyboard sounds, no keyboard effects, no keyboard/electronic drums…. No keyboards! Okay, I think I’ve made my point. It’s a rocker for me, especially the first few songs. Just over 37 minutes long in total, so it’s easy to digest. I hope you agree, we don’t want anyone getting ill.
The songs on this album were all a result of late night messing around and capturing ideas on a mini tape recorder. To be honest, I wasn’t sure if they would later be used for a new Deer album, or perhaps towards the next Guppies project. But, with the collaboration conditions being less than preferred for Ryan and I, I decided to push ahead with a new Deer before the baby arrives. Yes, baby girl will be here next month! (it’s September 15th as I’m writing this). Hence song # 7. Actually, there are a few songs that have baby-girl-on-the-mind roots. The cover photo features my wife Erika back in the day. That’s me on the left. I hope you listen to it, and I hope you like it. Until next time…
