This album collects material made over a 15 year period. It was recorded over many nights and a few daylight hours... often in a very isolated or meditative way. That said, it draws heavily on the creativity and generosity of my musical companions in the bands Rodan, Rachel’s, Shipping News, King G & the J Krew and The Young Scamels. I truly thank these kind folks for their open minds and good humor.
This (rather long-winded) two part collection has been priced very inexpensively. Hopefully this will encourage listeners to have fun and ramble around – deciding what to keep and what to eject. Feelings will not be bruised either way. Thanks so much for your time… all the best – J Noble / Louisville.

This is Public Noise Private Noise #2
