For Your Valentine----Cotton Mather's Kontiki reissued this week!

Just a quick note--At last, the 2-disc expanded remastered version of Cotton Mather's classic album is being released on Valentine's Day. I wrote about this recording in a previous post, and now the reissue has come to fruition. What better gift to give your favorite somebody if they happen to be musically obsessed like I am? This is a flat out amazing album!

The reissue project of this great Austin band became a reality through Kickstarter, where friends and fans actually donated money to make this happen. It's all about the love. Ranked #26 in John Borack's 200 greatest power pop albums of all time and an album dear to the heart of Oasis' Noel Gallagher, this is a very creative rock album that any fan of the Beatles would enjoy. And if any of you hipsters are planning to attend the SXSW extravaganza in Austin, you will get a chance to see the band perform a reunion concert to celebrate the album release.

Available on Amazon and from Robert Harrison's Star Apple Records. Check it out.
