city lights



Recorded on 4-track cassette with a Radio Shack microphone in Houston, Texas. Originally private pressed on limited vinyl in 1985. Pre-acid jazz/nu-jazz, "city lights" in other words. The album just got reissued in 2010.

You can read a good short interview with the dude here:

And then on his website he talks about the equipment he used to record the album back in '85:
