About the Making of Good Tar

This two-CD release contains twenty songs captured from live performances in the summer of 2001, unadorned by other instrumentation except for the addition of Joe Ebel’s electric guitar on one song. There are several stories, including the one that explains the album’s title.

About the cover art (a note from David):

The cover art on this record contains several interesting details. The man in the picture with the car is my grandfather, Lee Bishop, who was famous in his small town for being able to stand up with his foot behind his head. The handwritten page in the front is my journal, opened to the original scribbling of Watching for the Light, which I wrote while on tour in New Zealand. On the inside there’s a small picture of me at my senior prom.
