A Wasted Smile, Send Back In Old Guitars (2007)
I finished this album (bar last minute mixing) at the beginning of Spring 2007. I enjoyed the re-mixing talents of Mickey Simmonds, who took some of my bare work and turned its tones into something more slick. I wrote this after hearing a Shawn Colvin track, and loved that clean, new country sound - where the guitars are precise and the beat very produced. I love the line " A wasted smile never came back this way so many times, A Dylan song tells me of another tear inside". I got the line after I came up with the title of the album. It is how I would describe Tom Waits' first few albums if I was writing in a music mag!!

Labels: Mickey Simmonds, Wasted
