Ten songs written and performed by Reid Paley & Black Francis.

We wrote the music for the songs in Paley's apartment in Brooklyn over three afternoonswhen Francis was in New York for a three day run at Joe's Pub. After which we each tookhalf of the songs to finish off with lyrics. Francis went off to meet what he sometimes liked to call "the old band" for another tour. A few days later, we were recording in Nashville.

Spooner Oldham and David Hood.
