It was a LONG time comin'...but FINALLY! after 22 years, the original album titled "Experimental Asylum (A Soundtrack to the Movie in Your Mind)" has been re-mixed, re-mastered, revived, re-worked, and now re-published! A few of the original songs got kinda lost along the way and a few new ones got added including a couple or three very nice surprises.
"Experimental Asylum"

"Out of Chaos...the Sublime..."
In "the Noodling Sessions" portion of the album starting with track 10, "ANIceBlueSky" is an especially enjoyable little blues instrumental and "Ni Hao Baby" is boppy, upbeat and fun. A more "mellow and subdued" sound can be found in "Song Without Words #2" and even more so in "Song Without Words En Espanol" and "Walkin' Down Erzatz with the Birds". Most of the songs were recorded under live conditions and occasionally (especially on one of the songs....!) you might hear a mildly over-exuberant guitarist tapping his foot near the mic stand or some other 'live' background sound. Hopefully, most of the "ear nails" have been pulled and your listening experience will be a pleasant one. There was much debate on whether to include the 53 minute "original soundtrack" which, by the way, is the one and only track on Disc #2. What was finally decided was to blend the original recordings with brand new recordings as a sort of additional "experiment" in order to maintain a certain "continuity of flow" beginning and fully developed in 1988 and culminating now, 22 years later in a two disc, dual format CD set which includes 16 songs, plus bonus mp3's and videos, as well as liner notes and a picture or three. Both discs are in dual format and there are PC accessible "BONUS!" files on each of them. SO! spread the word about "Experimental Asylum (A Soundtrack to the Movie in Your Mind)" and all the great songs on there somewhere and especially about the song "It's So Hot (I'd Like to Sit In An Ice Cream Cone)" which may not be the most polished of recordings but still came out quite well considering it was from a 'live take' recorded in 1988 on a 4-track PortaStudio! Anyway, it's the MESSAGE of the song that I've been trying and need your help to spread. "If we work together for peace and Love all around us. Make a little music, let harmony surround us. Feed our hungry children, clothe our naked friends, heal the sick and wounded, do you see that in the end? WE could go sit in an ice cream cone...try...to beat the heat!..." Yes, it's a "silly song" wrapped around a not-so-silly message and we CAN change the world! In fact we MUST change the world towards the better side of things...
Peace and Music!
