Album Notes

From Joseph:

This CD was made in Philly in 1995 with the help of many folks. It was produced by John Wicks and includes some great Philly & NYC players including: Rockin' Ronny Crawford, Wallace B. Smith, David Lawrence, Alan (A#) Goldsher, Pablo Batista, Lee Smith, Donna Bostock, Bet(h) Williams and more.

A pop oriented acoustic record, it features songs of faith, fidelity, politics & love. It includes a song entitled 'The Oath' which places the writer in the soul, yes I know..., of a crop that has given itself to the world only to be betrayed by it's arrogant disregard of honor. 'For You' is a song we all can relate to if we have left a partner for lack of love. 'Dreams of Valium' examines the torment of a man chasing the material dream we westerners find ourselves in at times.

Other than those nice, light themes, it's a fun record I hope you will enjoy.

Peace,

joseph
