Okay Samurai: The Possibility War (1993-2003)
Today marks the official release of "The Possibility War," the latest CD from Okay Samurai. It's a collection of 25 songs that we've recorded over the past ten years - including songs from our two Second Nature albums, mp3s, obscure basment recordings, a live show and more. The tracks are New Tape Recorder, Mosquito, South of the Border, She's Wearing The Yellow Dress, Uncle Charlie's Song, Chlorine Girl, Fresh From The Farm, Grassblade Smoke, Bottlerocket Superstar, A Tribute To Mr. Punhong, Song Called Song, Golfing With Fish, Musicfest Orlando, Hawaiian Treehouse, F#, Hammock, Makesure, Letdown, Raining in LA, Third, Fatty In Scarf, Instant Oatmeal Road, Disregard The Trip On That, Navigator and She's Still Wearing The Yellow Dress. Some highlights:
*Bottlerocket Superstar and Disregard the Trip on That are live recordings from our 2.28.02 Mainstreet Bar and Grill show at James Madison University.
*She's Wearing The Yellow Dress is one of the first songs that Dave and Andrew recorded on their Radio Shack tape recorder, dating all the way back to 1987. She's Still Wearing The Yellow Dress is a 2003 acoustic remake.
*This version of Mosquito is the Eric Espiritu-produced one.
*"The Possibility War" is the first Okay Samurai album, so it's the first time South of the Border, Makesure, Song Called Song, Disregard the Trip on That, Bottlerocket Superstar and Hawaiian Treehouse have appeared on CD.
*A full-color booklet insert tells the stories behind the songs and has some extremely old band pictures.
The Possibility War is now available online for $9.99 at The Treehouse Merchant. There are also a few new products - a poster, a clock, and a trendy baseball jersey.
