Album Notes

This project began as a memorial to Joe's father, Jim, who passed away a short time back. We recorded a few of his favorite songs, and the results seemed quite fine, and everyone who heard it wanted to hear more. So we made more, and now we're rolling it out. The piano has wheels, even.
Joe, on guitar, makes his livin', mostly, from quilting- so the title has a couple of meanings.

Music for Squares
author: Michael K. Meyers
"Music For Squares" should have been titled, "What's Gone Missing From Your Heart Can Be Replaced By Listening To Me" although that, I know is too long. I suggest listening to this CD on the way to work, on the train for instance, or in the car, or where ever. It will make you happier, add a skip to your step, will remove the rough edges that you bring with you when you enter your cubicle and will make you an easier human being to deal with. Co-workers will comment, invite you on hay rides and the like. Listening twice has done much for me. My wife smiles at me, and my dog, well, he no longer runs away, which is a good thing, I think.

I love this cd -- it is quirky, original and well done. It is the sort of music I turn on, breathe, and feel reassured about life -- much needed in these fraught times. I bought several copies -- great gifts for close friends. Thank-you Joe and Eric.
