WAYWARD SONGS and WRITE ON! (my previous release) are
essentially cut from the same mold, so to speak. We (“A
Damn Good Band” and I) laid down the basic tracks to
nineteen songs in two days back in 2005—most of which ended
up being on both of these albums. Additional tracks such as
“Hope”, “The Monkey-Spankin’ Blues”, “Stupid And
Proud Of It”, “How Long?”, “A Story”, “Out of Time”,
“Independence Day”, “Rosemary”, “Black and White”, and
“What Did I Do (To Deserve This)?” were recorded over the
next few years in various locations such as The Nutthouse,
a hotel room, an office, and at Coop De Villa in Sweet
Home, Alabama. “The Bigger They Come, The Harder They Fall”
(featured on THE LOST CAUSEWAY) and “Lowdown” (included as
a bonus track on WAYWARD SONGS) were both recorded live at
Café KoM in Gothenburg, Sweden.
None of these songs were intended to be on a specific album
per se. Primarily they were recorded just for fun, with the
idea that they might possibly turn into an album
eventually. And I guess that’s how it turned out in the
end. I hope you have as much fun listening to these songs
as we did recording them.
