About<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The only songs remaining from my relocation to England to be a rock star. I didn’t make it as a rockstar, but I gave it a go based in part of some of these tracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These tracks are recordings of tape recordings, certainly not originals, and there is tape hiss and audio compression a-plenty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot of these tracks are instrumentals, works-in-progress that needed yet-to-be-written lyrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
