SPECIAL COLLABORATOR Crossover & JR/F/Canterbury Teams

After Sony (please pronounce that word with a sneer) used Echolyn as a loss leader, released a fantastic album but barely promoted it or the subsequent tour, the band broke up. Thanks a lot, Sony! :P

In 2000, Echolyn announced their rebirth by offering this two song sampler for free when ordering their new CD, Cowboy Poems Free.

Both of the songs here have a much richer instumental texture than the original releases, each from the album bearing the song name as it's title. And for that, they are both worthy tracks to own. However, the absence of the vocal harmonies on the originals, and the shortening of the fantastic middle section of As The World, make both of these songs inferior to the original recordings.

Because of that, and since both of these tracks were included on the collection A Little Nonsense Now And Then, this is definitely just a collector's item.
