Liner
Notes:
Welcome to
the new Ladies Night.
This project was originally released in
1996 on another label. As with its
immediate predecessor Metal,
Ladies Night has been remixed and
remastered to match the audio quality of
my 2000 release Handwritten Notes.
To commemorate this re-release on my own
label, I have included three never-before
heard tracks from the original 1995/1996
sessions.
While the two projects were recorded close
together in time, Ladies Night had
a different feel from Metal. It is
a more extreme record, at moments more
groove-oriented, at other moments more
moody and sensuous. This may have
something to do with the rhythms and
textures I was exploring at the time. I
was striving for new levels of feeling and
intensity by stepping further outside the
conventions of the guitar.
Ladies Night represented another
step forward in my evolution as a musician
and performer. I still perform many of
these tunes at every concert. I hope you
enjoy the new Ladies Night.
Thanks for listening.
