Warspeak - the soundtrack"by Marc C. Waszkiewicz & Lea Jones"!

Neither a celebration nor a protest of war… !a musical memoir of combat… !!

Originally recorded (1992) in a trailer in Bremerton, Washington, on an 8-track

TASCAM (with a YAMAHA drum machine), the album was expanded,

remixed (from the digitized analog tracks), rerecorded with live drums, and remastered

in 2017 — Beau Eastlund (Golden Lab)."!!MUSIC DIRECTOR:"!

You’ll find a wide range of styles here, from balls out psychedelic rock"down to bare-bones acoustic guitar tunes with single vocals. "

We know it’s only rock & roll…"!Tracks 14 & 20 come with *profanity warnings. "

Tracks 11, 14, 16, 18 & 19 are the least Vietnam-specific."Unless otherwise noted, all songs © 1992 Lea Jones & Marc C. Waszkiewicz"!

___________"!!From Mike Joyce at the Washington Post: "

"....originally intended to sound like… '60s rock, folk and blues… many of its themes still resonate. Loaded Gun, for example, concerns post-traumatic stress

disorder: ‘Haunted by dreams you can't outrun / Now you share your bed with a loaded gun.’ Waszkiewicz & Jones… colorfully evoke a wide variety of moods on this recording.”"!
