Album Notes

We recorded this CD after receiving so many requests that it became embarrassing to admit we had nothing. It's not as though we hadn't thought about it, but the music just kind of snuck up on us while we were having so much fun. We honed our sound at jams, park concerts, song circles, festivals and benefit performances. Mike selects a lot of the music, and Jeff loves to play and arrange harmonies and leads. The difficult part was deciding what to include from a large repertoire of songs. In the end we gravitated towards a feeling between blues, high lonesome and campfire music, I guess. It was exciting that our very talented friends were so anxious and willing to help out, and we're honored to have them on the recordings.
