Last night I dropped by Peter Moore’s mastering studio to listen to the ‘baked’ tape transfers of the Blue Peter tracks that will be on the "Are You Ready" comp and they sound amazing.
We listed to the entire "Test Patterns For Living" EP. It’s amazing that the tapes have so much clarity after all this time.
Blue Peter tracks included will be Same Old Place, Radio Silence, Chinese Graffiti, and Don’t Walk Past.

This is a shot of Shanti and I working at Brad Haehnel’s studio in Los Angeles where we have been recording for her upcoming release. Just for fun there will also be an acoustic version of the same tracks. 


On June 17, 2006 I played three songs worth of guitar with Chalk Circle at Lee’s Palace for their reunion gig.
We were joinded by John Shirreff of Breeding Ground (random link) for an ironic version of their song, “Reunion”.
I also played “Artificial Sweetener” and “20th Century Boy”.

(Volume One kicks off with The Demics’ famously hard-to-find anthem “New York City,” and Blue Peter’s surprisingly raw punk side is showcased on “Same Old Place.”)
