Notes:  Phranc has a way with a phrase and plenty of voice to back it up. Songs of life, love, losers and heroes. Bob Dylan's Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll is given a respectful reading, I'm sure Bob would approve. Stark black & white photography on the front gives the record a strong feeling.

Manuel "Manny" Vega III - bongos
Leslie Belt, Barbara Marino, Erika Seligsohn - background vocals
