Album Notes

THE MYSTERY OF GENIUS :

Some say that Jim Morrison is buried in Paris
though no one saw him die . Some say that
Elvis is still alive but has become an obese
blimp of a man addicted to food. Still, many say that Eddy James is like Zorro the fox - no one knows who he really is.Perhaps a retired secret agent or nuclear physicist with a guitar ? or maybe a Preist or an auto parts salesman ( Oh sure...the great Eddy James a Napa guy?Ha ha ! ) We may know very little about this elusive artist but we do have his music here to share with the world. Is this not enough ?

What you are about to experience is not only a " Quirky " pop artist who writes music with no holds barred but one whose voice is unlike anyone else past or present . Some of the songs on the CD are " left-field " alright - that's a given . Frank Zappa and Dr. Dimento and Wierd Al would likely have approved ! But then again , listen to the words on " IT'S THE BOTTOM THAT KEEPS THE TOP MOVING " . The messages in his songs are powerful and true , yet simple like pot roast and mashed potatoes . Eddy writes and sings for the blue collar world of hard working women and men . He makes fun with , not of people as in "RAPPER ON THE CRAPPER " , Eddy is saying " hey this is life and I've been laughed at just like you have ! "

Now " I PEED NEXT TO ELVIS " exists because everyone has had a brush with fame . Eddy's brush was just a little more unique . He's not making fun of Elvis . On the contrary , Eddy James eats fried banana sandwiches too !
