Thanks for the support Normaniac. This time out we've got a real mix of tunes. I hope you find a tune in the bunch that speaks to you.

Request it on www.deadtoselfradio.com (not all the tunes are available on D2S. Just the heavy ones)

It feels very good to let it go. Really, really good.   : )

I just want to say how grateful John and I are to all of you. So many of you gave us feedback in the making of this album that we found incredibly helpful. Thanks guys.

Well my personal contributions where all in the form of "Cool!....When does the album come out?" 
But I'm glad you both share what you are working on with us.

Yeah.
No.
That's not true, Staybrite, cause I can actually name the tunes you specifically helped us on so  !
Definitely Savior. Definitely Dead-Eyed Dolls. Plus your encouragement on others and your support on social media. Face it dude, 

Thank you so much everyone for the support along the way. We're really proud of this one.

Ordered my copy 

Thanks J. Going out in today's post. I think you'll find the JPM is more to your liking this time around  

Well the mail delivery dude finally got off his back-side and delivered my cd!
I'm just now sitting down to listen to it, but I've been flipping through the lyrics and musings booklet and it is super cool!  In addition to lyrics and brief insights to the songs you also get a cool forward from both John and Jenny and the artwork is great.  I'm looking forward to reading all of that good stuff, and hearing the entire album.  This is a great looking package, at a really good price.

 

Wow! They do look good. Living way down at the bottom of the world as I do, I haven't seen them printed yet so you just made my day, Staybrite. Thanks for posting that. They look good on you

Gotta have that high JPM 

I have to say I'm really enjoying the album. It's taken me a while to try to figure out who Jen reminds me of vocally. To me, she has a Stevie Nick's range but without the vibrato.

That's it!  I've been trying to figure out who she reminds me of, too.  She has a very Nicks' quality to her voice.

Thanks guys. So glad you're enjoying it Jeff. (feeling a bit of relief too tbh)

Yep, that was the very first person that came to mind when I heard her.

Looking forward to hearing the album.  This kinda snuck up on me.

Boo!

I love the hint of polka.

Oh yeah. You hit the nail on the head there BR. Our version of "Roll out the Barrel" was definitely a highlight...and the video. Woot! Can't wait for y'all to see it. John in lederhosen is a real treat

Polka is popular with old people, and so is Evans and Stokes. Here is the proof...

Beer Barrel Polka / Flames of Notre Dame

lol lol lol
I think Black Rider gets some writers' credits there John. ES Polka Killer by Evans, Stokes, and Rider.

You could call the band Lederhosen Stokes

Wow guys.....I'd like thank my Mom, my Fourth grade teacher and my cat, who was always there with a furball when needed.
