Jedediah Parish and The Mother Tongues consisted of Jed on electric guitar, Lori Perkins on organ and Pete Caldes on drums. This album was recorded after The Mother Tongues had been playing consistently for about a year and a half. The band played a month-long residency at TOAD in Porter Square, Cambridge and then went immediately into the studio. That studio, Galaxy Park, in Boston's scenic Allston section, was based in a home for little wanderers called The Greenhouse wherin lived Jedediah Parish and sound engineer Richard Marr. The basement where the performances were recorded was a perfect place to capture a limber, swinging drummer and a real organ player playing a real Hammond organ.
