Make your next party a hit (with over 6 hours of Morells and Skeletons)

Three other CDs for sale. "More compression." That's what Tom Taber hears from the band while they review the live recordings, prior to release. So, the good news is that these CDs have high standards. The even better news is that there's enough Morells/Skeletons music here to choke an iPod or two. And that's progress, since all through the late 90s, so much of this music was out of print, I had to send web site visitors to used CD sites, in search of In the Flesh, or Shake and Push. To buy one of the three CDs, Email Tom Taber for purchase details
