Are the 84-85 4-track demos lost?
Hi Brian,
I’ve been a fan since my H’burg days (’81-forever). Eric Jones had given me a cassette of the ’87 4-track recordings and when it disappeared, I thought I’d lost your music forever. When I happened on your blog in October, I downloaded all the songs and have been listening to them pretty much constantly since then. Naturally, the older tracks elicit fond memories of a great time in my life, but in listening to them I am amazed at the skill, maturity and emotional depth displayed in the lyrics and music. You guys were way beyond your years. I wasn’t sure how I would feel about your newer material, but I loved it on first listen. I hope you continue to submit new songs and make more of the older ones available. Is there any chance you will include lyrics (all songs) in the future?
Also, I hope you and your family are safe and happy. I know you guys were hit hard by Katrina — my mom had a home on Venus St. — probably a couple of blocks from yours — that was wrecked. And, of course, the Pass is pretty much a memory … so sad.
Brian,
I don’t know if you remember me ( I was the black guy : ))
I don’t know what you feel/think when you look over your body of work, but hopefully the feeling that over takes you is one of great pride; it’s deserved you wrote great stuff. the thing that you might not know is the influence tht you had on me all my friends. I played in a band in and around Hattiesburg for a number of years:as the primary songwriter, the standard I always used to measure myself and my output was your stuff, no not Led zeppelin, the ramones, vilolent femmes, gang of four or Husker du, but you and next window.
Thanks for the yardstick
Elijah
Good lord, this is just the music of my life, as much as anything else I can think of. And it still gets regular play at my house. I really hope there will be more to come someday.
Hey Brian.
This is way cool!
Thanks.
