12-song CD released in 1999. Progressive folk-rock without the bad attitude. MANDALA features some of the same songs from the limited release 1997 Homegrown Music collection recorded in a full-band format with drums and electric guitar. If you love the Backstreet Boys, you'll absolutely hate MANDALA. Music that will soar through your heart, soul and mind like an electric eagle whose eyes can pierce the dusty clouds of the computer age and pick apart the varied illusions and realities of the post industrial complex that is both refreshing and nostalgic. No rules. No lies. Just real music.
