We have as many audiences as we have phases of our career. And all of us are older now. We've grown in different directions, so that the result is a band that's sometimes a little scattered -- just like it was with the original version of the band, really. ...

Page Hamilton

Wharton was my only choice to co-produce this project with me. I want to get back to my roots with this release and what's really cool is that we are actually using the same tape machine that we recorded our first two albums with.

Jeff Jones

If an artist has five or six or seven albums in his or her catalog, a lot of times many retailers are only carrying two or three.

Madison Smartt Bell

John Fahey, thought during his lifetime to be possibly more than a little crazy, was the author of some thirty albums of gnomically introverted droning guitar instrumentals, which I listened to heavily in my teens and twenties; I even produced an hour or so of banjo music in an imitative John Fahey style.

To compare the albums is like trying to compare apples and oranges.

Dan Andriano

I don't understand people who don't like good production. It drives me crazy.

I always want our albums to sound more polished, as they say. Polished is the point for what we do.

It involved a lot of trust, but I love Bobby Harlow, and I loved the albums that he made.

Rick Springfield

I think it's pretty bizarre, ... I think you look to music to help you through (growing old), and the music that's strongest in your soul is the stuff you heard as a kid. I do that all the time. I listen to old albums and there's almost a spiritual support there.
