Good friend and producer Pete Weiss played this Ken Thomas song for me at Zippah Studio one day and I flipped!! I felt like Ken had written the song just for me (or an English guy named Elvis) and I had to record it! Jerker Emanuelson at Sound Asleep Records was looking for American pop songs so I asked Ken if I could replace his vocals with mine on his recording and send it out that way. Ken said "sure" and the rest is, sadly, not pop history but a blissfull 2 minutes and 20 seconds nonetheless. Thanks Pete, Ken, and Jerker.

about

Charlie Chesterman Boston, Massachusetts

The late, great CHARLIE CHESTERMAN brought punk to the plains with THE LAW, sowed the seeds of alt-country and roots-pop in SCRUFFY THE CAT, and blended twang & tenderness with humor & heartache in HARMONY ROCKETS and CHAZ & THE MOTORBIKES.

He was a tremendous talent and a wonderful human being.

We miss you Charlie. Thanks for leaving us with all this great music.
