Anne Gomez - bass, vocals Matt Kalb - guitar, vocals Bob Wall - drums, trumpet, vocals (though you don't get to hear them here because we can't include the cover...except he does say "A deer is like a beautiful man" twice before and once after the song of that name)
This was our first record, which we knew while we were making it. We recorded it at the Casa de Hotel Motel in our practice room, on my [Matt's] Tascam 38 reel-to-reel. LOOOOOOOW-budget. We borrowed a lot of mics too.
Mixed by Jay Murphy at Ponchartrain.
Teen Pop Crisis - thanks to David Nahm for seeing a sign for something honest-to-god called a "Teen Pop Crisis Center" in Lexington, KY which inspired this song. I asked Bob to play the trumpet after once seeing him play a keyboard with one hand, wail on the trumpet with the other, and then briefly stop the trumpet (exactly once) to say "Oh hell yeah!". The song lasts one minute if you let the last chord ring out long.
A Deer Is Like a Beautiful Man - Bob wall unofficial vocals at the beginning and end. The first in a series of "Anne's got a cool riff, and I've got some chords that can move asymmetrically under it, so why not??"
Really (Done) It This Time - Maybe the second song we learned together? Parenthetical title not optional, man.
Shark Attack - I think the first song we learned together. One of my favorite to play. OK, geek recording/mixing thing - I had a mic on bass drum, snare drum, and left and right overheads, and when we mixed it we put the bass/snare on one side and the overheads on the other. Put on your headphones and tell me it doesn't sound like asses being kicked. Pass the doob.
The cover you didn't get to hear was "Some Velvet Morning" by Lee Hazelwood/Nancy Sinatra. Bob and and Anne as them, respectively. It was really good and you're missing out so there. Show Less
