Original people involved in this album:

Eric R: Guitar/Lead Vocals

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Originally recorded in Groveland Ma on a Tascam 4Track 1997.
There were 2 complete recording sessions of this album.
The 1st session tapes were used to restore this album.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New recording info:
The intent of this new recording/restoration is to show what this album could have sounded like at the time of it's creation in 1997.

The number of tracks have been increased to 8 from the original 4. All of the instruments and the vocals (except Mac) have been rerecorded by Eric R. The count offs at the beginning of each song are original.

There was great effort to retain the "feeling" of the original musicians performances. Improvement of the quality of the recording, was the only intent. Enjoy.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Special note: There are 3 songs from the original release that do not appear. These songs were on the 2nd recording session. Those tapes were destroyed in a fire.

In the near future, new recordings/albums will be added to the bandcamp page. So check back at a later date. Thank You!
