Description
Information presented in alphabetical order by artist. Track numbers in brackets.
Blissful Behemoth [USA]
As Young as Im Old [2] (Levin)
Adam Levin: keyboards, sampled guitars, vocal, programmed drums. "A tongue-in-cheek tribute to Gentle Giant that parodies their style, sound, song titles, and other idiosyncrasies (including a Minnear-style vocal and two brief musical quotes)."
An instrumental rendition is on Adams 2006 CD "A Different Page" info at www.differentdrummusic.com.

Dan Bornemark and Helena Josefsson [Sweden]

Helena Josefsson: lead vocal
Paul Hoffax: guitar

John P. Weathers: additional backing vocals
"Recorded in 1999 during our wonderful project 'The Good Mornings.' Drums were added in fall 2005.
Dedicated to Tobbe Russlander and his right to be a father. Tobbe is still not wanted as the father he is."
--------------------------------------------------
Ant Bowles [UK]
Blitz [7] (Bowles)
Ant Bowles: vocals, radio announcer, acoustic and electric guitars, synthesisers and drum programming. Samples from the BBC archive and public domain sources.
"The song commemorates the sixtieth anniversary of The Blitz in WWII London."
--------------------------------------------------
Glen Burg [Canada]
A Farewell [20] (Burg)
"First (and only) recorded version ever, back in my university dorm room in 1997. Its all me (including my uncles homemade plywood mandolin), although I received help from Nathael Babineau for the piano track he gave me access to the piano room, held the mic as I played, then suggested that the piano fade after the other parts. That last input transformed the track as I see it. Thanks Nat."

"'Aspirations,' 'Talybont,' and a bit from Schooldays. Percussion inpired by the beatbox sounds from 'Winning'."
Giantique for a Day [10] (Shulman, Shulman, Minnear)
"'Proclamation' bass riff 'Pantagruels Nativity' tambourine, and an inversion of 'Just the Same' at the end."

The Prince and The Fox [17] (Kowalski)
Darek Mankowski: violin
Alfred James Goodrich: cello
Jeffrey Farrington: piano
"An excerpt from a work based on The Little
Prince, this grew out of sketches which didnt quite want to evolve into full-scale pieces.
This arrangement underscores the classical elements, but there are many parts that dip into
progressive rock. Copyright David Kowalski.
