Liner Notes - The Creek
“I had been talked into playing one last gig by an old bass player I had played with at Dove studios in the ''60s. It was to be a retrospective of my entire career. One last gig! It sounded like the plot to a thousand movies I''d seen. And so, in May of ''08, we began rounding up musicians for this last gig. All the musicians who were finally chosen were people I considered brothers and friends who knew me and my style well. By August, I had become bored with rehearsing my old songs. I wasn''t quite done, I still had something new to say and with the global economic meltdown I found stories out there that had to be told. We began with a live video for YouTube of the song "Big Oil", recorded on August 7th 2008. Much to my surprise and delight, "Big Oil" was chosen by the renowned British magazine -- NME, as one of the best new videos on YouTube for that week. This gave me the confidence to go on with recording new tracks. While these songs were being recorded, America had a campaign, an election, and eventually a new president. On one hand I saw hope, and on the other hand, I saw America going through the pain of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. I wanted this collection of songs to be raw and live with very few overdubs. I believe this music is joyous, rockin'' and real and I hope the lyrics are insightful to America''s true heart and in some way capture these times we are living through.”
