four non blondes
the first two tracks represent the last incarnation of the band. The first version of this song - mighty lady - was recorded live. the second version is an unmastered rough mix (with a scratch vocal) from the unfinished, unreleased recording we were in the middle of working on when we broke up. The song mighty lady was pretty much along for the whole ride. the last couple of tunes are some other recordings that were released on soundtrack or compliation CDs.

katherine chase band
katherine writes some great songs, and I was fortunate to play bass with her band for a while post-4NB. i don't think i have ever teared up as consistanty as i have for live, solo renditions of "call mary" - a moving testimony to love and loss.
