"Although at times Fake Chapter Records has serviced some of my
pet projects, the company has spent the past 9 years focused on
supporting the music of our talented roster. However, one day I
thought of this impossible idea for my first real album. Actually
the concept was simple, it was the follow through that got hard.
The Concept: To make an album where every song is recorded by the
actual artist who inspired me as a songwriter. Giving each song a
circle of life never done before.
The Task: Trying to approach artists I've never met and convince
them to record my songs. Also, trying not to produce something
that would only be of interest to me.
The Result: After 3 years of rejections, harassments, and
countless potential release dates, I finished this beautiful but
unique album. Even though I would write all the songs, I had to
give up complete control of the outcome. Since a song could only
be recorded by the artists who influenced it, fate would
determined the track listings. The control of the words and music
I would also have to give up. As a result, there are moments that
I love and moments that I don't, but all of it is beautiful
because it was true to the concept. Besides, my thoughts no longer
matter; now that belongs to whomever listens.
I cannot THANK enough everyone involved (the performers, the
workers, the subjects, and the supporting people in my life) with
making this record. ALL of the musicians featured are brilliant
and have made some terrific albums. Please BUY all of their
records." - Michael Gilligan
