about

Recording Dates: 2012-2014

Release Date: 2018

Catalog: SMR34

ScratchNotes:

After the artistic and recreational success of “Farm Jam” the Sheep Fiends were eager for an encore…every single year! Aaron and Mark joined in on year two and thereafter. Matt joined the caravan in 2013. For the fourth Farm Jam I fell ill and needed to quickly get back to Illinois for what ended up being an injured chest wall. Along with first two Farm Jam sequels this disc contains top performances from several jams and an enjoyable reunion with Dave L.

There are three solo tracks this time around. “Dracon” is an experiment with speedy drums and samples. “The Oldest Living Human is Always Dying” may or may not have a point to make. “Mobile Telephone” is a beefed up version of an improv acoustic track I made in my bedroom one afternoon. It’s pretty silly. But I think that’s A-OK.
