about

recorded in one afternoon rockaway beach queens
any oif the really excellent guitar on Slackers albums is usually Simon... he even got us some of our first good bar gigs and we've played around each other for almost 30 yrs. yet, we never made a record together.
Simon and the Barsinisters were bar band extrordinaire of all styles surf boogie blues punk jazz avant garde and otherwise... so it's been long overdue and a pleasure to put some music onto tape with just the two of us... a couple of mooks.
