Produced and Recorded by Tom Gould Mixed and SA3 Mastered by John Tabacco at Suburban Hermit Studios, Stony Brook, NY Photos by Melissa Sharpe Disc Drawing: Tilly Calzia All songs written by Tom Gould Published by Free 4 Music (BMI) The Players: Tom Gould: Bass & Vocals Ron Rahilly: Guitar George Vahamonde: Drums Notes: “In a slightly better world, everyone would play in a band. In a much, much better world, we would all sound like Tom Gould. The group brings energy, skill and humor to almost every style they attempt. It's the kind of band you always hope is playing down at the local tavern on Saturday nights.” Jennifer Kelly Splendid E-zine “Tom Gould's songs often have an indefinable quality. A very dynamic live act as well. Expect a wide range of emotions and rhythms to flood from the stage.” SAM ASH website "Music for all times and all countries." Dragan Stajic - The "Balkan"(Yugoslavia's national newspaper) “Gould's songwriting has grown better and better, and his band seems to be able to reinvent itself with every new record.” Kevin Amorim - New York Newsday "Tom Gould turns music into an idiosyncratic mélange fit for the edgiest downtown club." Joshua Tanzer - offoffoff.com "Smart, seductive songs in the best possible light" Aiding and Abetting E-zine "Smokey gruff cool...swaggering” Mike Breen - Cincinnati City Beat “Intoxicating vibe. The grooves are undeniably infectious, while Gould's lyrics have an escapist quality.” Ian D'Giff - New York Newsday “As always, regardless of the players, vintage or source of the material, you'll find Tom Gould and his friends having fun playing music, and as always, you'll have fun listening to it.” Shaun Dale - Cosmic Debris E-zine
