Who? What do you mean you've never heard of him??
Folks, something a little different today - a cassette only release (although I'm not sure it ever got released).

02 - Postcard (Fly Away)
03 - Blue Roses
04 - Where The Sidewalk Ends3
05 - Tension

This guy use to live with a work buddy of mine in Dallas back in 1994. He had this cassette of his at work one day and I was so taken by it I had to buy a copy.
He use to record all his songs on a 4-track cassette recorder in backyards, bathrooms and kitchens, whenever he had the time and money. He would make cassettes to give (or sell) to friends to support his musical habit. I really don't know a thing about the guy but it's high time the World found out about him! I don't even know how to describe his music. I used alt-rock in the tags but I'm not so sure that fits. You'll just have to take a listen and trust me on this when I say it's really great stuff! Obviously he's a very talented guy on almost all instruments - and not a bad song writer to boot. I especially admire his bass playing - he plays just the right amount of stuff on all instruments.
Favorite song? Roadblocks!
The last I heard (several years ago) was that maybe this guy was living in Austin.
John Phillip Dixon is his name. "Dominoes In The Kitchen is the title.
And now you know as much as I do!
I've scanned and resized the artwork from the cassette so it should fit in a CD case.
Enjoy!
Encoded at 320K from the lowly cassette!

BTW; I HAVE figured out how to rip AVI-files (thru/with VirtualDub). Great and easy

I have downloaded many obscure groups, artist and things not fitting into either of those categories, more than I would like to admit...and more deleted than not, but I have to say this one is a keeper. Better than many million sellers and all of the Rap crap.
I'm not sure what genre fits either, and this is really going out on a limb, but it makes me feel a little like early Dave Mason, specifically Alone Together. Don't know why. Dave is considered Folk Rock.
By the way, great job ripping the cassette. Nice quality.
Thanks for the Tremendous share. Very much appreciated.
