When I started making up songs in the late 90s I would usually make a tape full of songs at least once a year. It was all from following the example of how Daniel Johnston had done it. All my 20+ years of recording songs I owe to Daniel! Here’s a tape of stuff from 2021, for whoever might be interested. Not making physical copies though. Thanks for your support.
Released December 26, 2021 (digital release only)
All songs by Jeffrey Lewis, but #18 is from the Burning Hell and #14 was written for Peter Stampfel because he wanted new words to the old Watts-Ryerson song from the early 40s. And #4 “Vaccinated” is based on the Joey Ramone “Sedated” song that was based on the Alice Cooper “Elected” song that was based on the Dennis Dunaway(?) “Reflected” song. Mostly home recordings played into a voice-memo thing. Nellie Bridge is doing the additional vocal on #3, Sleepy Kitty (Paige and Evan) played/recorded the backing band stuff on #4 (and the drums on #8), and Damian Quinones is the one playing the lead guitar on #16. Damian also helped engineer some of #8 at his apartment.
Mastered by Brian Speaker.
(Brian Speaker also mixed #4 and #8)
