Travelogue of the 80s (Recorded 8 — 13 June 2015)
This album came together almost by accident. I just started recording new songs, and redid a few (really) old ones in radically different ways, and you get this! I basically tried to make every single song at or around six minutes long (with Back To the Garden being a sole exception). I didn't want anything really short or really long here, and I think six minutes is a good length for the songs included. Some might be later worked into drone tracks, but we shall see.
There is some really great stuff on here, and I'm really proud of it. Now... to get down to recording that double cd I keep putting off.
