Artist:  Jimmy Silva and the Empty Set

Title:  Fly Like a Dog

Date:  1987

Label:  PopLlama Records   PL-8081

Cover Design and Layout:  Bill Jedrzejewski and Jimmy Silva  

Notes:  Another album full of stories from Jimmy and his cast of thousands. Jimmy and Scott McCaughey (Young Fresh Fellows), old navy buddies, worked together on a portion of the tunes here and everyone else joins in for the music. And once again the range of styles and guitar sounds is vast and tasteful. There's a craftsman-like quality to Jimmy's records and it's a shame there'll be no more. The cover is bright and shows the young aviator and his faithful companion.

The Players:  Kevin Army, Chuck Carroll, Steve Cirelli, Jed Critter, Stefan Czar, Dennis Diken, Rich Feragen, JimHrabetin, Tad Hutchison, Scott McCaughey, Mark Nichols, Jim Sangster, Eric Scott, Jimmy Silva, Conrad Uno, Sal Valentino
