ROCK: Roots Rock, ROCK: Jam-band
Details:
These songs began life during the period of May 1987-May 1990. Most came from jams'' between Aaron and Crawford. Bryan would often sit in on these jam'' sessions and add lyrics to the music. Though not a participating member of the group then known as Guttate Rivers, Bryan helped shape the arrangements of the songs. Aaron and Crawford continued to play these songs, continually looking for a Bass player and a permanent singer. Mark was a mutual friend of theirs and in 1989 decided to take up Bass guitar. A new singer joined the group a year later, taking the band in a different direction and abandoning the previous material written by Aaron, Crawford, Bryan and Mark.
The group disbanded in early 1992. In late 1996, Crawford decided to record the old songs in order to have a finished professional format. Aaron, Mark and Bryan agreed to assist in the recording. The resulting efforts were completed in 1998 in the form of the album titled, "Life Size Sole." This new body of work required a new band name to mark the completion of the efforts, and the name Markers was chosen from a song that the group wrote that never got past the boom-box tapes (parts of which can be heard at the end of the CD in the bonus tracks).
Tracks 13-17 are extra tracks that were recorded between 1987-1989 with a boom-box. They have been added as a representation of the spontaneity of the group during those years. Some of them were ''one-offs'' and were never played again. The song, ''Blank'' is one of those. It never even had a name until this album was created.
