about

This is the final offering from Robert Rial's Bakelite 78. This EP, much like the preceding EP "Five Hits From Heck", is an amazing five song masterpiece. The Seattle outfit sadly parted ways in July 2019. We would like to thank our friends, family and fans for the love.

released November 26, 2019

Recorded, mixed and mastered by Mell Dettmer at Studio Soli in West Seattle, between 2015-2019. Special guests include Kevin "Muscle Mouth" Buster on track 2, "Bar on the Corner", and Mai Li Pittard on track 3, "I don't think I Love you anymore". Tracks 1 and 3 lyrics by B. Austin Quist. Track 2 written by Bill Wagner. Tracks 4 and 5 by Robert Rial. Although Erik Reed and Sabrina Pope did not 'write' any of these songs, they did create horn parts and sections based on the chord structures, and deftly work with each other perfecting harmonies, etc. Their contributions as improvisors and amazing musical artists cannot go uncredited. This band would not have been as great as it was without the whole groups efforts and mastery.
