notes
Adam Selzer, ably backed by his "Maritime Band," puts out the sort of album you might expect from an Anglophile folksinger obsessed with Halloween specials, beat poetry, and the month of October. As dark an album as it occasionally is, it's certainly not without the sort of humor one would expect from a (then) 21-year-old who opens his album by singing "my barn burned down back in 1935." "Pushing Cheerleaders Down the Stairs" has turned up on radio stations all over the place.
