LPs. Now looking back I think I was partially wrong in

to go out and rub shoulders with people and see live music, than sit
around alone and list to albums. But anyway, although I was a
hippie and a folkie, I would also by just this n' that, of course
Sinatra and Elvis were so culturally dominant in America I had to pick
up thrift store stuff used. It’s hard not too. Actually I
like them a lot. I did the Sinatra pieces just to beef up the
stuff I did with Charles Schneider. But I really like them. "I've always been a total fan of Tom Rap, of the folk-rock group Pearls Before Swine. Charles Schneider got a hold of Tom and he gave us an unrecorded song of his, 'Every Change is Release', which we recorded for the CD Folknik II (SoundCo Records). I mentioned to Tom in a letter some years ago, that I really enjoyed some Lennie Tristano cuts I’d heard on an anthology. Soon afterwards I received a Lennie Tristano 4 CD set in the mail, which I've listened to like crazy. Thus the "Mystical Gift of Rapp" four piece art sets." – Bob Moss For more of Bob's art using images of Elvis, Sinatra, and Tom Rapp see with Charles Schneider Gallery. Check out Bob's

Rapp's Every Change is Release
