Was lucky to record with the great Bill Harkleroad – aka Zoot Horn Rollo – on this super fun EP that focuses on 4 different masks. He brought me in for Mask #4 and it was one of the quickest recording sessions I’ve ever been a part of. The hang was fun, the music was hard, the studio was really hot and everybody was a sweaty mess. Wish I could have done more!
The whole EP is available here:

Zoot Horn Rollo: guitar
Mark Schneider: Bass
Jason Palmer: Drums
Sergei Teleshev: Accordion
Brian McWhorter: Trumpet

Picked up Mask EP as I am a huge fan of Bill’s (in English class 1969 we were all supposed to bring in one object that was very important to us and explain why. I brought in Trout Mask Replica which sat up on the blackboard railing staring at all of us for weeks. Albany Union High School but I remember buying it at The Crystal Ship in Eugene).
Anyway, great trumpet playing and excellent CD overall. Keep up the great work!
Is there a CD release of this EP and where can I get it?
