Scott Robins recorded these songs LIVE and online in Second Life. The audio was then engineered with care by Michaela Belbin. The album artwork, created by Janis K.Beauchamp, memorializes the bluesy living experiences of Aldon Fairfield's Montreal life on Waverly Street. The pulsing heart of this city continues to drive Aldon's songwriting today and tomorrow.The songwriter would rather tell you about the songs themselves. Aldon relates, "The work is important...the Self is not...says my BigBlue Book". So here goes...These twelve blues-based tunes came about in a most unusual way for me. I listened to the blues influences in the many classic Rock 'n" Roll titles of Chuck Berry, Little Richard and the rest - the early Beatles Hamburg set lists. I became aware that these rock and rolled 12-bar blues progressions inspired me creatively, provided me with whole new alternate lyrics coming to mind - as I listened. Fourteen sets of lyrics were scribbled down - pretty rough but purely inspired . I sang those new lyrics over the recordings and they seemed to work well. I sincerely hope you will enjoy the experience. And now some notes regarding the tunes...
TRUTH FROM THE LIES... narrates the story about a vacationing family inadvertently arrested and grilled by officers of Area 51 security. "Any family man can see this aint no Hollywood..."
ARRIVED EARLY, STAYED LATE ...a song written to be sung by Dr. John, the Night Tripper. New Orleans meets a backyard party gone terribly wrong.
Saturday Night In London...a touring musician meets a married lady after the show. Hmmm..Is it London,Ontario he's referring  to? Or is it London,England UK.? "Only in Canada", you say?" Pity...
HOW CAN YOU SAY IT'S OVER?... take me down to the Delta for this one. Do you like the resonator guitar? Wish I'd played that.
ROCK, SHOCK, SHAKE In Yer Shoes... Complications arise after picking up a stranger in Montreal's Metro subway train. Fantasies sometimes should be kept to yourself. Physical harm could follow...otherwise.
CALL ME GIRL CRAZY...sharing fantasies sometimes is just plain fun. Especially watching two girls arm-in-arm heading for the shower stall. HEY! I'll even shoot the video for ya. Maybe three to tango will work out fine...
I LED THE LIFE... the Bluesbreakers and John Mayall owe a lot to the American jazz pianist/songwriter Mose Allison. And so do I. The seventh son of a seventh son would agree, "You can ask my girlfriend...or you can ask my wife ...I led the life"
Hard Day At the Office Man....one of those perfectly horrid days working like a slave under a boss who treats you like a monkey. And she doesn't even offer you bananas. Piles and piles of files but payday will see me and the cooler girl miles and miles from here. Break out the barbeque! We're gone gone gone...
TOMMY GET OUT .....and let your father in.Unknowingly, a father and son are competing both for the same conniving woman with lustful intention. Your auntie? Oh...sorry 'bout that. Apologies.
ROCK ON SOLID GROUND....a Sunday service that describes what is at the center of Paradise... Can't we all just Adjust to the facts?
NO ONE COULD TAKE YOUR PLACE....there is no one else but you. There never has been, nor ever will be any One else but You..."Allright, I'm guilty, but what could I do?" Believe.
Please note that all these songs will be recorded and released this year in their original rock n roll style. Look for OPERATION BACKBEAT (part 1) at stores online near you. Okay okay it's a plug, but guaranteed funferall. And now... Thank you muchly (and thinking aboutcha till I'm black and blue)...I will remain, authentically yours,
 Aldon Fairfield
