1. "star" is on the upcoming hundred year flood record, "hell or high water"... i wrote it with marc utter. produced by andy kravitz (a2thaMFk).
2. "gimme gimme"... need i say more? hundred year flood screwin' around in the studio.... me runnin' the dials.
3. "neck of the woods" is a song that i wrote for hundred year flood. myself and felecia ford are the singers along with special guest, shannon mcnally, who is one of our very favorite singers. andy kravitz (a2thaMFk) produced "neck of the woods" at frogville studio.
4. "sunshine"... i wrote it... an hour later we recorded it. jim on drums. felecia on harmony.
5. "champion dog" is from a 4-track cassette recording at marc wolff's house. i wrote it right then and there as i was recording it.
6. "immigrant bluez"... hundred year flood. recorded in a split second!
