about

I was signed to GJ Records in 1983 to co-write with Joan Tratner for a new idea. Music Albums should be signed, numbed, & preserved like fine art.
Joan insisted on having me write music to her poems. I did my best to make them cohesive as songs. I also used this opportunity to show off my music writing skills hence the reason for all of crazy bridges, etc.
Dave used to call me the 8th note king so I had to prove him wrong.

I convinced my cover band The New Toys to help me out.
I can't recall the name of the studio or the engineer. I do know he was a heavy name back then and the studio was very famous. I'm sure one of my band mates can fill in those blanks.
If you ever run into Dave Beyer, Bruce Salvati, or Steve Balduff, ask them about Joan's dog.
We had some great times doing this record. a few late nights at Sunset Susi and some crazy stories.
Her budget was very low so we rushed everything through including the recording.
I think it was recorded in two sessions, mixed in an hour or so and mastered? You will find some over saturation of the Ss due to them not mastering it properly if at all.
