Description

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.
