This new album, (Kevin's 9th), was recorded at Madhouse Recorders in Leadville, CO. Produced by Kevin and engineered by Tim Stroh. Tim is a grammy nominated engineer and engineered Kevin's first album, THINKING OUT LOUD. They met up after nearly 20 years at a songwriting contest in Breckenridge, CO. Tim was one of the judges. Kevin did not win the contest, however he was invited up to do some recording in Tim's studio. That initial meeting would lead to this album. 'The CD started out as a scaled down effort, sort of like when Paul McCartney left the Beatles and recorded his first solo album with Linda chiming in.' Faith Crawford would be Kevin's 'Linda' and sing on 7 of the tracks. Ken E. Keller, who has played bass guitar on many of Kevin's albums flew in from Cape Girardeau, MO to lay down the low end and drummer extraordinaire Dean Oldencott layed down the rhythm tracks. Other 'icing' on the cake would come from Denver's own Scooter Barnes on electric guitar, (Emotional Roller Coaster, Hey Dean!, and Long Live The World) and John 'Roc' Rothrock on piano, (Let Love Remain). Kevin's son Eamon would add vocals on 'Happily Ever After' and additional electric guitar on 'Sweet Guitar'. All in all, this album is quintessential Kevin Danzig. 'I really had an opportunity to create at my own pace on this one...no time or money constraints...

I just got in there and chose an instrument within arms length and made up the ingredients for my musical menu, with a little help from my friends' Enjoy!
