Recorded live at Ken Sanders Rare Books on August 4, 2012. From the artist: "The songs on this recording were all inspired by books I've read. I composed these across a thirty-year span from 1982 to 2012. These songs are different than songs that come solely out of my own thoughts and experience; they are more a digestion of what I've gleaned from reading and are also spontaneous responses. I think of books as part of our collective consciousness. They are our record of history and also a canvas for the imagination. Whether a book is a great piece of literature or not, each contains some record of humanity - serious, comedic, pedestrian or genius. Art forms are related and the creative process is often carried into new formats of expression as culture is passed from one art form to another. Also, interpretations are individual. Someone else might read the same book but create a different song than mine, just as individual artists could illustrate the same chicken differently. This recording project celebrates shared experience by way of interpretive song. I lovingly joke that the state of Utah, where I've lived for over thirty years, is a cross between Dr. Who and a Clint Eastwood western. In the heart of Salt Lake City, Utah is an amazing bookstore run by a character the likes of which you might encounter in those film productions: Mr. Ken Sanders. I recorded these songs in concert at his bookstore, Ken Sanders Rare Books, on August 4, 2012, first with a small audience and then later in the evening with a larger audience that filled the bookstore to the brim. The simple music arrangement is mostly my guitar and voice - reflecting the simplicity of ink on a page. Harmony vocals were sung by Mark Hazel, who is also featured on Kate MacLeod and the Pancakes' 2005 Breakfast recording. My harmonica was added at the mixing sessions. For the sake of repeated listenings and to keep the focus on the songs, we've edited post-song applause from many of the tracks. There is one song that was re-recorded in the studio. Can you guess which song it is?

The Watergate scandal was a major political controversy in the United States during the presidency of Richard Nixon from 1972 to 1974, ultimately resulting in Nixon's resignation. The name originated from attempts by the Nixon administration to conceal its involvement in the June 17, 1972 break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters located in the Watergate Office Building in Washington, D.C. Following the apprehension of the five individuals involved in the break-in, both the press and the Department of Justice connected the funds to the Committee for the Re-Election of the President, or CRP, the fundraising organization of Richard Nixon's 1972 re-election campaign. Subsequent investigations and revelations during trials prompted the U.S. House of Representatives to grant the House Judiciary Committee expanded investigative authority. Additionally, the Senate established the U.S. Senate Watergate Committee, which conducted hearings related to the incident. Witnesses testified that Nixon had sanctioned plans to cover up his administration's involvement in the break-in and that there was a voice-activated taping system in the Oval Office. Nixon's administration resisted the investigations, leading to a constitutional crisis. The televised Senate Watergate hearings garnered nationwide attention and public interest. Numerous revelations and Nixon's efforts to impede the investigation in 1973 led the House to initiate impeachment proceedings against him. The Supreme Court's ruling in United States v. Nixon (1974) compelled Nixon to surrender the Oval Office tapes, which revealed his complicity in the cover-up. The House Judiciary Committee approved three articles of impeachment against Nixon, who subsequently resigned from office on August 9, 1974, becoming the only U.S. president to do so. His successor, Gerald Ford, pardoned him on September 8, 1974. Folder with 28 loose prints/sheets included.
