May 16, 2009High Castle EP, Core of the Coalman
Another project in the works is a CD release for Core of the Coalman. Jorge is living in Prague right now but when he was back in Oakland last summer his live sets were totally slaying, if you don't know his stuff, check out the End Grain/Spirograph CDR we put out in 2006 and/or read Foxy Digitalis' glowing review of said release. The viola and guitar-centric tracks here are compiled under the title "Box of the Last Help." Hope to get that one out before summer's done.
