Phil – thanks for this. floored and flattered. best/CButler
Chris…it is truly meaningful, moving, angering rock and roll. What a rarity, really, in today’s mud-tide of media. I am a bit younger than you–8 when Kent State happened–but it resonated with me so many ways. Also, on my Facebook page I noted that the power pop cuts were like dBs or Chilton had they been committed to more than just music. I plan on doing everything I can to get the word out. Plans for vinyl, at all? Just wondering for our only store here in Columbia, MO. What a finish to the record, too.
again…wowwowwow. re: vinyl…well, i wonder if this project warrants it? i know plastic’s all the rage, it would have to be a double record so $$$, etc…dunno. i do have a “Just Songs” option available on bandcamp, thinking that hearing the narration every time would bore a listener. thanks so much for you interest and offer to spread the word. best/CButler
You’re right. I do like that option for milquetoast listeners, but it all works together beautifully, and the spoken passages are really powerful!
