bobgaines This record grips the listener with its immediacy and presence. It somehow calms in it's fast-picking parts as well as it's more drone-y moods. It calms my busy head. AND the recording quality is superb. Favorite track: Nastaleeq.
Robert Ham

Robert Ham One of Portland's most underrated guitar players here in solo form. It's not overly virtuosic material, just the product of an expert player that knows how to pull the right emotional tones out of his instrument. Favorite track: No Love You'd Call Real.
