Music

Listen And You Will Hear
	Recorded in 1991 at Seven South Studio in Santa Barbara, CA. This, our first cassette was the result of a quick-and-dirty weekend recording session marking our first year of playing together. Jason then went off to pursue his two-year degree in jazz studies at Sonoma State, and we played only sporadically during those years. The rest of us carried on with our various side-projects and music and recording classes at SBCC. This preceded Robin joining the band, and features keyboard on the title track by Darryl Joyce of Collage of i. We had set aside money from playing a private solstice evening party (right after playing the prestiguous post-parade park stage) to pay for the recording, and I funded the rest (still holding a software job at the time) - artwork by Eric Cross, production of 500 tapes (in those crappy breakaway cases), and color J-cards (hey! color was a big deal for the time!) printed at Kinko's and laid out in Pagemaker by airbrush artist Pete Gately, who later did a great piece of work on the life-size canvas WindCave banner. As original music for and by the youth, there were numerous testimonies of those obsessed individuals who actually listened (and heard) that tape religously until it gave out (even well after the CD) . My wife-to-be heard it for the first time courtesy of Toby Klein on Sierra Institute backpacking trip. Fortunately that did not discourage her from actually seeing us live, as it was the the ONLY tape anyone had brought. While it was important to us for what it was, its exhuberant rushing tempos and raspy vocals made it more of a sketchbook of curious bench mark value. I have yet to rip it to MP3 from the analog cassette source. If you're that curious send me an email.
