John Fahey, thought during his lifetime to be possibly more than a little crazy, was the author of some thirty albums of gnomically introverted droning guitar instrumentals, which I listened to heavily in my teens and twenties; I even produced an hour or so of banjo music in an imitative John Fahey style.

Marcus Davis

I think it kind of goes with the album title. Not to sound cheesy or anything, but I'm finding I'm using it as a mantra lately. We're going to go all out, and we'll either fall on our faces, or it's going to be a huge success, but either way, in the end, we want to say we all did our best.

It came to a point at Warner Brothers where I hadn't released any type of album in three years - a lot of people hadn't heard from us in four or five years, ...

Kirk (Snyder) deserves a shot. Kirk works his butt off every day. He's still out here. Matter of fact, do you see J.R.? (Smith had left.) That pretty much tells it. It's work ethic -- he has to work harder.
