Album Notes

Ten years after the release of "Was It Like This", Steve Erwin has re-released the CD with 4 bonus tracks recorded live at the ORF RadioCafé in Vienna, Austria.

With a nearly operatic voice and stunningly artful songs, Steve Erwin has somehow managed to fly beneath the radar of the folks who hand out awards. Despite this, he has quietly influenced many D. C. songwriters, and like his one-time accompanist Danny Gatton, Steve Erwin is rightfully regarded as the "Best Unknown" artist in D.C. today. The legendary Gatton appeared on Steve's album, "Was It Like This" which was recorded in 1988 and re-issued on CD to critical acclaim. Neil Fagan, of nationally distributed "Performing Songwriter Magazine" says, "Danny Gatton's chops accentuate Erwin's first-rate tunes so well, you'd think they'd been playing together all their lives."
