about

We recorded Port of Spain in New York with Wharton Tiers at Fun City a couple of decades ago and it is a record we love. Both of the record companies that tried to put it out went bankrupt, so we are releasing it ourselves here on Bandcamp in the hope of emulating their success.

The bonus materials include the lyrics and the complete front and back of Jennifer Dalton's wonder cover.
