Album Notes

10 years ago I recorded a concept album on a 4 track tape recorder based around some of the events that transpired in my life. This was the first `album' where I had an idea of where I wanted to go musically. Unfortunately due to time and waning interests, I never released this album.

I wanted to re-record `Orchid' and release the original demo as a 2 disc set. But it didn't feel right to try to augment history.

I have released `Orchid' in its original form including all the outtakes and re-recording attempts that I was able to locate.

In August of 2009, every track was posted on a blog. I went through each track; explaining, sharing experiences, and criticising the many shortcomings of `Orchid.'

I've had the pleasure of playing music with Christopher in the past, and although it doesn't show in my writing, he's always been a huge inspiration. There's nothing like sitting back and digging into his music. I remember first falling in love with an instrumental demo of "Where We Rest", and I can't get enough of the completed version of Orchid!!!!!
