If Toxic is Roger Klug's Pop Masterpiece, then Mama, Mama is
his Garage Rock Album. The guitars are cranked one louder, and the ancient 8-track
machine which died shortly after mixing this opus replicates everything in Full Analog
Glory. Check out the guitar textures of "Our Friend Jess" and "They
Ain't The Same," relish the devil-may-care vocal delivery of "Tongue Tied"
and "About Your Cat," but don't ignore the baroque yet pathological "Austin
and Aaron" with its gorgeous string quartet and "Vibin'," which
could be described as a nightmare that swings. |

Presenting for your
listening pleasure Roger's internationally-hailed
second solo album. Described once by the artist as "sort of a
loosely-based concept album no Christ forget I ever said that,"
Toxic is a pop tour de force that leaves no stone
unturned in the quest for exposing and exploring the viscosity and
thermal breakdown of human relationships. No less than that.
Includes the hits "On The Way To
His Wedding," "Nothing Better," "Disney Eyes," and concert fave
"Porcupine." |

The debut album
of the now-legendary Willies, which was the dynamic duo of Jeff Karch and Roger
Klug. Originally released in 1991 (the same year as Nirvana's Nevermind;
where does the time go?!!), this seminal collection features 13 Klug-penned gems and
riveting performances from both musicians. The Willies were known for their highly
energetic live shows; alas, the performances are history but the music lives on!

The second Willies' album
finds the boys stretching out (for over 65 minutes!); die-hard fans of the band usually
rate Calm Cool Collected a hair above its predecessor, if only for its scope and
epic-ness. Contains the classic period piece, "Do You Really Like The Grateful
Dead?" No album collection is complete without this opus!
