Charlotte North Carolina was the site of this recording session. Produced by Don Dixon (REM, Smithereens, Marshal Crenshaw) done in about 2-3 weeks. We had finished it and then i wrote "Nights Like These " and we went back to record that one. I think we thought it would be a hit. Great time of my life making this record. Hopeful, but yet very anxious, hence the name of the record. Was originally titled "From Chicago To Gethsemane", but the record company hated that. Maybe not a great marketing idea to name it Gethsemane because the subsequent tours found me in many radio stations with DJ's barely able to pronounce it.

My last record on a major label. This was made over the course of 3 months down in Memphis Tennessee. Made pretty much with just me and Joe Hardy. Was a great experiment, and I think might be the best collection of tunes I had. Was probably too ambitious of myself trying to do everything and that is probably my only regret. Did have Klem and Jack

My last record on a major label. This was made over the course of 3 months down in Memphis Tennessee. Made pretty much with just me and Joe Hardy. Was a great experiment, and I think might be the best collection of tunes I had. Was probably too ambitious of myself trying to do everything and that is probably my only regret. Did have Klem and Jack Carpender play on a little bit, but was doing more stuff with loops and me banging on things. Hardy is a genius but I think I may have tied his hands a bit wanting to be a one man band. Wrote "Charlie Boy " during recording at the hotel I lived at for the entire stay. Until a crazy girl tried to burn it down with me in it! Stephen King came down to Memphis on that Halloween 1995. i remember we went to see a new movie called "Pulp Fiction" then to the Rendezvous for ribs. About 5 minutes after we sat down he had a line of ten people wanting autographs. Had never really hung out with a celebrity but that was certainly a night where I got a glimpse of what they go through on a daily basis.
