CD includes all lyrics and comments by Ken and Les Barker.

  • "History Man" (an anti war song) has been recorded by Hillary Spencer.
  • "The Railways of New York" (a love song) was sung by Jack Hudson on the recording "Twilight of the Dogs" and sung by Christine Deleon and others.
  • "Can't Find My Invisibility Cloak" was included on the recording "CATNAV"
  • "Heroes" is a song about the real heroes of 9/11 that people have requested a recording of.

I was initially drawn to reciting Les' funny poems and found I was inspired to sing his serious poems and then his funny ones as well. These are funny and serious poems that called to me and said "I want to be a song".
