This CD was re-mastered from the first tape Jeff Olson & I did together. I had met him, oddly enough, through some work he had done with John M Bennett, but his playing style was much more "alternative" oriented, in a rock/jazz sorta' way, so I wanted to see what we could make together musically. Other tapes followed, because Jeff's work on synth is SUPERB; he's a true master artist, & I enjoyed collaborating with him very much! Hope you enjoy it too!

Skinless He
John M Bennett, myself & a character who called himself "Ficus Strangulensis" (aka Forrest Richey) got together in Columbus, Ohio back "in the day", & laid the songs down you'll hear on this CD. Reviewers have concluded that it is pure "odd-istry"! Ha! Ha! We'll see what YOUR ears determine it to be. This is some of the strangest spoken-word/music you'll ever hear!

The Old Neighborhood
Ernesto Diaz-Infante & I had already performed on (nearly) 20 CD's when we decided to do this one. In the interim, I had been working with Eric Wallack on a couple of CD's, and decided his style would mesh perfectly with the tapes I got back from Ernesto. Most of the album cover concept came from Eric; I was pretty much (just) doing overdubs over Ernesto & Eric's work. It seemed to mesh quite well, as we got tons of great reviews for the CD.

Undelivered Pizza Jam
After my rather long stints in Korea (from 1980 through 1985, essentially), I wanted to play (in person) with some of the folks I'd been recording with through the mails. Eric Hausmann lived down in JAX, Florida, at the time, & this CD is what came out of those 2 nites of playing. I added some fine work by John M Bennett into the mix later, which you'll hear on "His Monotonous Beard" Order this with your PAYPAL account, or simply send an email to me at zzajunique@hotmail.com-- $7.00

Whistlepoot Junction
Can't remember exactly where I ran into Jeff Olson, but I know it was from the early 'zine days... probably FF 5, but I can't be positive. At any rate, after I heard his fantastic keyboard work, I knew we had to do something together. He pulled in his pal (guitarist) Stacey Gravatt, & I asked my musical partner Mark Vale to join in the fray, & oh-boy - this project TOOK OFF! We know that if you dig rock with jazz influences, you'll like the sample tracks, & hope that you'll consider buying the CD from us, too!

Flag Sleeping
There were a whole SERIES of recordings (some live, others by mail) that John M Bennett and I did together. This particular recording was culled from some live performance we did at John's home in Columbus, Ohio. As you'll hear, he is one of the greatest poets on the American landscape... pure "odd-istry", as I term it. We hope you'll consider purchasing this album if you like the samples I've put up here at INDIEONESTOP for you! Use PAYPAL (from this site/link), or via email to zzajunique@hotmail.com-- $7.00

This CD was compiled from a series of live performances I did with underground/Avantgarde notables Davey Williams (guitarist extraordinaire), LaDonna Smith (trumpet, violin), saxophonist Wally Shoup & others in-house as well as live in a "punk" joint called "The Cavern". I had met these characters in the early 1980's, & was overjoyed when they invited me to bring my Rhodes down to Birmingham & join in the fun. This was actually my very FIRST CD, & is pretty representative of how my music took the direction(s) it did over these last 30 years or so.

Mark Vale and I first met way back in 1978, in a little coffeehouse in Olympia, Washington called the "Gnu Deli". The night we first met, we hit it off musically, & have been playing music together ever since. This CD is (we like to think) some of the best music we've ever done, & we hope you'll like the songs well enough to consider purchasing the whole album; either use PAYPAL from this page, or just email me at zzajunique@hotmail.com Check out what the reviewers said:
