He's a local musician who has been putting out albums for years. His songs often cover the small, day-to-day things in life that most songwriters wouldn’t think worth immortalizing in song. And probably not all that surprising considering his album covers, his music is infused with a big dose of humor, satire and a touch of self-deprecation.

 

RIYL: Mac DeMarco, Daniel Johnston, Half Japanese, The Frogs…

Yeah, same guy. This album isn't as good as his first one, but it's a decent late 70s soul/funk release, with a handful of solid songs. It's definitely a product of its time though, veering into disco-ish grooves on a couple of tunes. Nonetheless, a good purchase for $2. I couldn't resist buying it, as I've never seen another record from him other than "I've Been Lonely for So Long."

Looks like it never got a CD release. I'm gonna have to look for some sort of download somewhere.
