My new Bandcamp album, "The Road to Freedom," is now available for
downloading. Payment is optional. All net receipts for March and April
2022 will go to Doctors without Borders, which is doing good work for
Ukraine refugees and others in need of medical help.
This is my first full-length album since "Shrink Wrap Blues" in the
early nineties. It's made from home recordings, with some
multi-tracking, enhancement, and (most important of all) getting rid of
the bad takes in Audacity.
Most of the songs are from this year's FAWM, where I set myself the
theme of "Promises Broken, Promises Restored." That was my working title
for the album till I realized it sounded like a collection of sad love
songs. The subject matter is the (often inconsistent) growth of liberty
in the United States, from colonial times to the present. The topics
include religious establishment, slavery, prohibition, law enforcement
abuse, and more. It's a reminded that, as the title song says, "the road
to freedom never is a straight one."
