Let's journey back together to the Sherwood Forest of
Recording Studios in the Bay Area, The Treefort. Also known as TRS The
Recording Studio, it was conceived in 1978, and lives on to the present day. The
Treefort was/is the home of many artists, and their music still lives in the
walls of this legendary site.
Scott Smith, owner and squire of the Fort, has assembled a
CD of magical musical moments in this lush 65-minute compilation entitled "Tales from the Treefort."
Coming out from behind the thick underbrush, and
bounding down from the treetops, the cast of merry men includes Stan
Cotey, Kevin Gilbert, and J. Scott Smith. The first half of the record is a
twisted stroll down 80's prog-rock memory lane, and assorted jingles and
jangles. The second half are more current pop/prog tunes written and
performed by Scotty.
If you are a fan of pretentious English art/rock this is a
gem for your collection. The exhaustive credits may be had by going to the
Treefort's website.
