Hey WHarris!! Thanks! Cool to know that some music lovers still enjoy our music. If you liked our stuff, you might like some of the subsequent bto music that never got released (plus my own solo tunes). Have a listen and thanks for brightening my sunday!

Cheers, Hawk

That was the result of the file ending with .MP3 rather than .mp3. Stupid finicky browsers…

BTW, though, I just got an error trying to listen to the Three O'Clock track.

Bounce the Ocean: one of my favorite early '90s obscurities…and a rare one that I discovered not as a result of working at Record Bar but, rather, via a review in Musician. (I sometimes forget how much I enjoyed that mag.) The harmonies on that album's opening track, “Throw It All Away,” still make the hairs on my arm stand up.

I also like “Vermillion” a lot more than some folks do. “When She Becomes My Girl” is as about as catchy as sunshine pop comes, but I also really dig the silly but fun “Neon Telephone.” In fact, I think I'll break out that disc right now…
