liner notes
WHILE WE WERE SITTING AROUND WONDERING ABOUT FUN THINGS TO DO, WE WENT TO MY WEB SITE AND STARTED GOOFING AROUND WITH EXCERPTS FROM MY NOVEL ON JUSTINSCANLON.COM WHICH COVERS THE HISTORY OF NIHILISM AND THE ART OF SELF IMPLOSION. EVERY NOW AND THEN YOU'LL HERE CHOKING SOUNDS. SOME OF THOSE ARE LAUGHTER. THE OTHERS? WE REALLY DIDN'T NEED THAT PRODUCER ANYWAY

liner notes
Success has a thousand fathers, failure is perpetually an orphan. Although I conceived of most of these as covers of standards, so far even the publishers themselves claim they are too distorted and insult the artists. However, if by chance these things make any money at all, I will still be glad to share. For the... (more)

Et In Arcadia Ego. Into every garden comes the self. And the self brings death. But without that fall from innocence, without that opening of the eyes upon the sense of monstrousness, where would we be? Is it not likely that the happy garden state was one which were we to take one look at and experience one second... (more)

Jazzical. Well, that’s how Vince at Guitar Center describes this material. It’s as good a term as any I can think of.
I’m not really a classical guitarist, but a lot of folks have done me the honor of referring to my work in that manner. However, I fear that does an injustice to the elite of the classical guitar... (more)

Sooner or later I had to make the long suggested blues album. If you are a perfectionist, borrow the album, don’t buy it. If you are a traditionalist, it’s probably worth it, despite some of the tracks seeming more like jazz.
The album is about the various metamorphoses blues takes, although it is anything but... (more)

Speaking of the unspeakable, is speak of the things we all already know, but normally purge from our thoughts.
Young people in the flower of their adulthood, and bursting with whatever talent or lack of it they may have, are dying in wars that can only sap the strength of the victors and morally qualify the propagandized... (more)

What kind of idiocy would generate an album full of iambic tetrameters from a somewhat obscure 17th Century poet, spy, and member of parliament who went on record as beating the crap out of one of his fellow Parliamentary thugs on the Parliament floor?

The Crucifixion of Louie Armstrong. All right. Before every religious and non-religious person that comes across this title takes offense for all the wrong reasons, let me explain. This is the penultimate chapter of my unpublished (of course) novel about time travel and damnation, entitled The Crucifixion of Louie... (more)

"Fabulous! Simply Fabulous!" That's what my producer, William "Buddy" Bolotron has to say. He may slightly biased because he pays the bills.

liner notes
Like Volume One, this is unedited material. In some sort of way Buddy's right about this approach. It is more than merely honest, it is ruthless. And I like that. I'm pricing it accordingly. Economical to make, economical to buy.

Unedited strikes again, but with the vengeance of a Hebrew divinty suffering with one of Jupiter's hangovers.
