Recorded live at Agate Hall, University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon on March 8, 2002.

The second disc was initially recorded T.A.O., although I've now repaired it. It's a great set, with a really good assortment of covers and originals. I'm not sure which category She's Alright With Me fits into; it seems like a fairly typical amalgamation of blues themes, with the title line recalling Muddy Waters' Two Trains Running.

The following comments on the band came from the guy who sent me these recordings:

"These guys are really good and deserve to get bigger. I don't know how much you know about them but they are from Portland OR, and very rarely play outside the city limits. I used to live there and had the good fortune of seeing them a bunch of times. We all used to go to this bar on Sunday nights and they would "practice" from 6-8 for free, this got to be known as "church" and it still happens."
