about

For this rootsy (no pun intended) folk album, Neal returned to western New Jersey and Mix-O-Lydian Studios, where he recorded Rain, Wind and Speed 13 years earlier and assembled a great collection of songs.

His New Jersey crew of Dan Fadel, John Ginty and Angie McKenna are joined by Jeff Hill and Jon Graboff from the Cardinals, along with overdubs from his California pals Johnathan Rice, Farmer Dave Scher and Darren Rademaker.

‘The Losing End Again’ kicks off the album and it’s mix of folky rock songs like ‘Back To Haunt You’, ‘So Far Astray’ and ‘The Cold & The Darkness’ next to ballads like ‘Cold Waves’ and ‘Chasing Her Ghost’. There’s also versions of some of his lost 90’s demos that hadn’t made previous albums- ‘Turn For The Worse’, ‘Superhighway’, ‘Keep The Peace’ and ‘Pray Me Home’.
