Description

The debut solo album by acclaimed drummer Prairie Prince. Described by journalist and author Joel Selvin as the “latest expression” of Prince’s “supreme artwork,” this deeply personal project involves 10 years, 50 musicians, 20 drums, and 14 tracks.

It is noted to take up where the original record by spoken word legend Ken Nordine left off. Prince weaves together tracks named for different colors, giving them life through drums, percussion, and spoken word.

The album features guest appearances by a number of celebrated musicians, including Todd Rundgren, Buckethead, Jello Biafra, Ross Valory (Journey), Hugh Cornwell, and fellow members of The Tubes: Michael Cotten, Roger Steen, and Rick Anderson.
