about

A collection of cover songs-- drinking songs, funny songs-- that I used to play. Recorded at home in 2004. I had just started taking songwriting seriously at this time, and wanted to play some acoustic gigs, so this was the material I used. In another year or two I had written enough of my own songs that this material got dropped.

I have to laugh looking at the phone number and email address. I've gone through two of each since I made this record.

Full Boar
by Marty Jones & the Pork Boilin' Poor Boys

Great country-western drinking and funny songs, although the duet, "Now We Barely Pass for a Couple" is beautifully sad. Rob Roper
