Album Notes

If you are reading this, then it is assumed that you hold dear the same set of principles and values that we do. You believe that the world can be changed for the better through a few simple things, like the sound of a reverb drenched guitar solo, the taste of a fine single malt scotch or the shake of a hip on a crowded dance floor.

But there are those who wish to deny you these simple pleasures. Our most recent threat comes from deep within the bowels of the former Soviet Union, where an organization known only as BF-6 has launched a diabolical plan. From behind the secretly re-raised Iron Curtain, BF-6 agents have hatched an evil plot to contaminate all Russian vodka before it is delivered to go-go lounges all over the world. Laced with a clear, tasteless mind-control agent, the tainted alcohol will force martini drinking lounge lovers to abandon their refined taste in art and culture and trick them into accepting the mind numbing drivel known as Top 40. The leaders of BF-6 know that by crushing the ideals of free-thinking, free-spirited youth, they will permanently extend their global influence and Top 40 is the perfect conformity fueled, soul crushing weapon to help them achieve their sinister ends.

Fortunately, all is not lost. I have personally assembled a crack team of free thinking, strong willed (and even stronger chinned) individuals to fight this global menace. Together they form a top secret intelligence agency sworn to uphold the freedom of martini swilling bachelor pads and good taste. They are four sixties-styled men that can - nay, will - make a difference in our modern world. Each agent is a trained covert tactical specialist, armed with exceptional taste in music, bucket-loads of charisma and their own god-given talents. Our heroes will use the purest form of music to combat the evil plans of BF-6 and ensure that popular youth culture will never succumb to the mind withering conformity of Top 40. What music is still pure you ask? The reverb soaked, red-lined, key pounding all out assault of SPY-FI!
