A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Trouble, I bought this Sammy Davis Jr record recently and you MUST talk about the graphics on this record! What is going on here? What is Sammy's message? It's a Motown record, so he seems to still be dealing with some black thang.... | |

Morning Trouble, the version of 'Wichita Lineman' Brian played a few weeks ago was off our new LP, Bruner: Songs For A Friend, on our Numerophon imprint. Amazing tape we discovered while working on the Pisces: A Lovely Sight record that feature's 4 songs with Bruner as well. | |
