Album Notes

The second solo release from Peter Sando, singer/writer behind 60’s psych group Gandalf, further emphasises his songcrafting abilities, highlighted by Sally Hemings, which examines the affair of Thomas Jefferson and his slave mistress. Jaded Love and the title track, Afraid of the Dark echo the memorizing appeal of the classic Gandalf LP, while Peter does not ignore his rock & country roots on the remaining tracks. Continuing in Mr. Sando’s “Ameridelic” style, the album closes with the whimsicle Ghost Of Robert Erskine, based on local history and legend. Self produced and mostly self accompanied, Peter is backed by studio pros, including cameos by Gandalf members Frank Hubach and Bryan Post. With this new release, Peter Sando adds to his catalogue of highly collectible record albums.
