Does It Turn You On

Written with Dean Ween, this song appears on the compilation "Sing, Breathe & Be Merry" compi lation CD.

Dragonfly

This has become a favorite live song, this track appears on WAKE.

Face Your Doom (With Daniel Johnston)

Face Your Doom is a Daniel Johnston song and appears on a compilation called, "Hyperjinx Tricycle." This is a song I produced and played on thanks to Don Goede. Daniel Johnston is one of America's greatest songwriters.

Giving Into Life (With Football Wedding)

This song was recorded for the movie "Dog Park." It appears during the final credits. Football Wedding is comprised of Hub Moore, Adam Lasus, Mike Menner and yours truly.

Henry

This is an obscure track recorded in Al Petitti's basement in Boston in the mid- 80s. Al was the guitarist in O Positive. He wrote the lyrics... it's a strange one.

If You Forget Me

This is the first version of this song, again recorded in Al Pettit's basement, a different version appeared on my major label debut, "Be Headed." The trumpet is a nice touch.

Into the Universe

This was recorded and pro duced by Andrew Wiess during the first Angeldust sessions. Angeldust was a short-lived band I had with Andrew in the late 90s. This gem features incredible drumming by Claude Coleman, Jr. and the guitar wonderment of Michael Hampton, a.k.a. Kidd Funkadelic from P-FUNK! Andrew Wiess is in his element here.

Joe Strummer's Midnight Dream

This is another track done as Angeldust during the same sessions as "Into the Universe." We got a publishing deal through V2 to make these songs. Andrew recorded me in the front yard in the wee hours of the morning at the Zion House of Flesh where I used to live with him in the late 80s and early 90s. The crickets are the real deal.

Leaf of Fall (4-track version)

This is an early version of the song that I recorded at home when I lived in the little red school house in Lambertville, N.J. in the mid-90s. It features Dave Driewitz on bass and drums and Dean Ween on guitar. It prompted the beginning of the band, The People's Key, which is a great unknown band centered around Dave and I. Someday The People's Key will take over the world.

Love is Lies (Buzzcock cover)

This track was recorded live at Stony Brook Studios (the house I lived in with Claude Coleman, Jr.). It features Steve Garvey on acoustic guitar (the original Buzzcocks bassist). Claude plays upright bass, and Matt Kohut plays electric bass. JP Wasicko plays on drums, Joe Ujj on organ and some dude named Chris, who wandered into the studio that day (and is a friend of Joe's), played acoustic guitar. And the wonderful and talented Shannon Sanderson is on vocals.

Raise the Roof (Live) and Road With You (Live)

Recorded by Kirk Miller. These songs feature Sim Cain, Andrew Wiess and Dean Ween when we opened for Soul Asylum at American University sometime in the early 90s. My sister came to this show. "Raise the Roof" appears on the Sing, Breathe & Be Merry compilation CD and "Road With You" first appeared on "Be Headed" and can also be found on "Band of Changes."
