released July 14, 1987

Producer's notes: After spending four years working on "big studio" productions: being the tracks for SQUARES IN PAIRS as well as Rockin' Bricks recordings, ARKANSAS TRAVELER was meant to present the Breetles at home, only four tracks to record onto with no track reductions or bounces, then mixed to a Nackamichi cassette recorder. We recorded where the Martians "landed" in 1938- Grovers Mill, NJ in my large room over a spacious 2 car garage, not far from Princeton.

**For best results, burn GAPLESS double-cds! Happy sailing!
Enjoy with cookies and some hot cocoa, and a big fattie.
Cheers and God Save The Kinks!

They have been described as the illegitimate flower-child of The Who, The Beatles, XTC, The Kinks, Mrs. Miller and Cheap Trick. Power-pop, cleverly-stupid, quiet is the new loud. ... more
