Juana Molina - "Eras" (from the album Wed 21)

Rites Of Passage
Mommy - rop work track - never finished - unreleased
a work-in-progress from our sessions in 1996.

OK, for those curious here is yet another work-in-progress track from our ROP sessions back in 1996. Note that it is semi-produced yet very much still unfinished and abbreviated. And like the other tracks here there are longer more detailed versions in my archives that may see the light of day down the road, time will tell. This one was most definitely a bit more experimental on the outside edge of our ideas.

This song was performed LIVE only once at the old Mad Dogs & Englishmen PUB in downtown Nevada City in the summer of 1996. 

As with the other unfinished track it became clear that once John joined the band that this was not the direction we were going to go for various reasons, and so it goes. Nonetheless it was powerfully creative and fun spring and summer for us all and this track shows yet another direction of where the band could have gone had the timing and situation been a bit different.

Credits: Andrew Hodgson drums; Rich Stanmyre electric bass; Mikail Graham tp trem + lead & slide guitar, child samples, & 'the mix'; Roger Hodgson vocals & 12 string picked guitar.

This song was composed by the band…

NOTE: This is pre John Helliwell & Jeff Daniel.
