This new Paranoid Larry album is a celebration of Wombat Recording in Brooklyn, NY,
where all the Paranoid Larry albums were recorded in one form or another over the years-
before proprietor Ross Bonadonna began his ongoing world tour. Here are some of the songs we were working on, and some that we completed. With the Wombat recordings in hand, Larry teamed up with his old pal Sam Kulik at Ze Boocherie and they started
organizing, tinkering, and completely re-imagining several of the songs,
as they came up with some fine, fun new ones.
All the Paranoid Larry records have their funny parts, and this one as well, only more so. A tear or two might surprise you along the way since I guess laughing and crying are at the very least second cousins. Either way, it'll make you feel a little better.
Or a little worse.
