About Me


37 Steps to Emotional Healing

We rolled up our sleeves and reached deep into the Champs' vault to pull out this special collection of 37 tunes going all the way back to the beginning. '37 Steps' is a sure winner among the collegiate stoner crowd but also contains some pop classics for the suburbanite and retired crowd. In fact, I would go as far as to say that this is the perfect cd for anyone who has arms, legs, or eyelids and might even make a great gift for anyone undergoing a tummy-tuck. Get it while you can!

**Special offer** The CD is $0.10 per song, or, in other words, only $3.70!!! To buy it, visit MoRisen Records.
