Recorded in 1987 in Warren Road Studios, Ithaca, NY.

These recordings are from Fall 1987 at Warren Road Studios. Andy's friends from his semester in London in the first half of 1986 came to Ithaca and lived with him and Tim and CJ in his parents' house while they were on sabbatical for most of a year: from August 1987 to April 1988. "Fire" and "Desire" are all Andy, multi-tracking with Paul's MT-44 4-track cassette deck, which he'd brought with him from London. The rest are songs written and sung by Paul, and tracked with Paul and Tim in the studio, a group we called Paul Explosion and the Digitally Insane. The CD also has "See It All" by E.B.A. See this playlist.

Overview:
There are cassette tapes by "The Andy Band" dating back to 1979, when Andy was 14 years old, and he is still an avid recording musician. Sometimes The Andy Band is all about "hit record and go" improvisation, other times it's all about one-man-band multi-tracking in the studio. Since 2010, Andy has been playing some of these songs live near his new home in Vermont at open mics. He relishes the thrill of improvising with an audience, as well as singing three-part harmonies and playing bass with players there. But he also loves building up a song with layers and layers of Andys, singing and playing everything.
