Well, I should disclose that Lane Steinberg is a friend...
I actually hooked back up with him here. Someone posted about Lane
Steinberg, and I wrote-- as a joke-- "I wonder if that's the same Lane
Steinberg I went to camp with." And a few weeks later my email made its way
to him and he wrote that yeah,. it was.
The two topical songs have more bite than the rest of the album, and almost
seem to be in a different vein. But I've played it through once and I like
what I hear (I'd heard the 2 already as MP3s.)

>>A new Tan Sleeve album is available, at their web site:

>>http://www.tansleeve.com/
>>
>>The CD has two somewhat political songs: the title track, "American
>>Blood," and the closing "Condoleezza Will Lead Us." I can't figure out if
>>the latter is serious or tongue in cheek. I know it was serious enough
>>that it got picked up by a Rice for Prez website and made CNN and other

>>
>>I think Auditeers will appreciate the cultural touchstone in "When Lindsey
>>Buckingham Shaved His Beard," a sort of "American Pie" for the immediate
>>post-Woodstock generation. And in between, a bunch of longing, sweet,
>>aching, beautiful songs in the Bacharach/Beatles/Big Star/Beatles vein.
