CD on Made in Mexico titled "as brass and satin". Track list: scorpion boy, the sound of sloppy kisses, brass and satin, sparkle that rash, march of black and white roses, howl of hounds, P.S. I read your diary, to live and lie in a colorless jungle.

"Here's a bit of tour gossip so hot and dirty that it made me blush: Very recently, a couple of local bands had a stopover in San Francisco, where they were joined by their label owner for a night of debauchery. Bar-hopping on Folsom Street, the label owner and certain members of both bands (many of whom are not of age) slipped into the back room of an establishment where a dozen or so men were goin' at it. Once enough beverages had been consumed, our local boys dove in enthusiastically while the straight and female members of the bands watched. That night set the tone for the rest of the West Coast tour--which featured plenty of pill-popping and decadent Beverly Hills shopping. One of the musicians is even rumored to have come back with a case of the clap."
