Bill Baird "Career" - 2012 LP

About a year ago I got a call from Bill...."I'm in Hollywood, I'm walking down Sunset, what are you doing?"  Well, anytime I get that call I drop just about anything...So after about an hour of shutting down the studio I hopped in my truck from Venice headed towards Hollywood....I couldn't find Bill....I drove all the way down Sunset past Silverlake.....After that point your between Chinatown and Downtown....Just as I was making a U-turn I spotted a long haired blonde dude with an arm full of records and leather patches on his elbows....He had been walking miles.....Bill hopped in and immediately started "What have you been listening too?"....After giving my normal response of hipster indie garage bands...Bill started to play me what I thought was a Captian Beefheart mixtape....Then his newest tracks started up....I had never heard him write this kind of music...It was unlike any music I had ever heard....We continued OUr journey back to my studio, looked at some paintings, then set out on the town in what I can only remember as some sort of blurred hybrid of Withnail and I or Fear and Loathing...Ironically, I dropped Bill off right where I found him....On Sunset Blvd......Now a year later with the songs mixed and complete "Career" is here....It....like all of Bill's albums...is spectacular and groundbreaking:
