That may look mighty cool, Sold Out! But... in fact CD Baby asks any band to start with sending 5 copies. They keep one for their archive. So they have 4 up for sale.

They asked me to send more CDs today. Needless to say the CDs are already on their way to the USA. Shouldn't take too long.

Thank you for your support guys!!

I got it today.  I've only gotten about half way through it, but I can say that it's really good.  I don't hear the Ginger Baker's Air Force influence, but I've already said that Superfloor hits that Cry of Love vibe in grand fashion.  Nice grooves, great tones, strong vocals, and smart use of dynamics.

Which bass(es) did you use on the recording?  Nice and fat.  Hugely fat!

You guys should try to ship some promo copies to some of the radio markets across the pond.  I can think of stations that might hit on this stuff.

Thank you Gary!

you know that none of the band members had even heard of Ginger Baker's Airforce until we read it in the review!
Neither had we ever heard of Stone the Crows or Now Time Delegation...

I used my Gibson Les Paul Bass on all songs.
Except for Soul On Fire, where I used the Greco Thunderbird. And Miss You where I used the modified Epiphone Jack Casady Signature.

If you give me an address for a radio station plus name of a Deejay I can send them a copy.

cheers, Rob

Not knowing Stone the Crows is quite unforgiveable indeed.



I thought you listened to them all the time!!!

Oh I think I do remember them, now that I've seen that clip... I think... ::)
But no, they're not an influence.


We are more influenced by Cry Of Love, Doyle Bramhall II, Philip Sayce, AC/DC, Thin Lizzy, UFO, Aretha Franklin, Black Crowes, SRV, Badlands, etc

Received my copy yesterday.

Sounds great, so far my favorites are "Been Down" & You're So Cold"

I really like the added Electric piano & organ. Used sparingly but to great effect. The bass playing is really solid. Nice guitar and of coarse, great vocals.  Very Stevie sounding guitar, great tone!

Thank you John. Glad you like it.
"Been Down" is my son's favorite too :) He knows it by heart!
