He did pass in December. We all miss him terribly. The week before he passed we finished recording for our new CD. There are some truly talented folks with mental illness out there. This new CD is absolutely amazing. Due to the emotional toll on us, we are just now getting production started. If anyone is interested in this new CD let me know and I will make it available.

Just to clarify, the CD's are copies from the original vinyl. There were no CD's printed from the first release. However, if you are interested,I have a few of the original lps still in the original shrink wrap, complete with "circles and arrows" and a glossy picture of Alan Melinger on the back.

If you are interested in a copy of the cd we would be happy to make that available to you by snail mail or possibly mp3. We are currently half way through a new cd that continues the spirit and message of these projects. It is developing a life of its own and has become much larger than any one individual. Please contact us. Hi patrick and jlc

It's obviously rare as hens teeth and out of print so I doubt anyone will get too upset if it was posted in it's entirety for free so that this doesn't descend into obscurity. I have been making flacs of many of my old records like this and just uploading them online to preserve them digitally forever. Anyway, I know some people have a problem with doing this (but it isn't like I can just go buy this...I would if I could even find it, even at a high price) but it would be nice to have.

I wrote the original review of the LP (above) after finding a copy on eBay. It really is a unique experience, and some of the music on it is truly arresting. Finding out about Alan Melinger's rock'n'roll past made it even more intriguing. The copy I have is the only one I've seen so far. Best regards, // Patrick Dave, good to hear from you.
