Think about it, a record is really a record! A record of a period of time -one which we can give our children, share with friends, and have for a reminder of somethings in old age.
An album of work, recording different emotions and ideas and sounds and voices; "Back when I had more hair and it was black!" says the future. I think my grandkids especially, will get a kick out of listening to Grandpa yellin; I know i love it when I hear my Grandpa singing. I hope it encourages them to find their own roars - as an artist I hope this in a variation en masse as well of course.
It is the quickest way to see the inside portions of my heart, and hopefully even one's own; for no matter how much it may seem that I have my heart on my sleeve - some piece of it (even unknowingly) - is hidden in my pocket; its singing and sounds are recorded here, in the wails and moans and whispers of 'Last Year's Ghosts'.
