The Green Pajamas - The NIght Races Into Anna

A collection of veteran Seattle psych outfit`s rare & unreleased tracks 1997-2006,but throwaways these are not. Listen to what we have below for proof positive. A compilation along the lines of past Green Pajamas releases like `Indian Winter` and `Narcotic Kisses; 20 tracks that, for one reason or another, never made it onto albums or EPs released over the last decade. Most of these songs likely didn`t fit the concept or `sound` of whatever album was being created at the time, and during sequencing, were left off. The result is, ironically, a Pajamas album in what some might regard as the "classic" sense: a rather psychedelic collection of short, sweet pop songs. No theme or agenda.

Mainman Jeff Kelly came across most of these songs again while making digital back-up copies from DAT master tapes. He was struck by how good all these songs sounded collected together. Coincidentally, Eric Lichter offered up two new songs that he`d recorded with Ken Stringfellow (Posies, Big Star, REM) which fit perfectly with this collection. There`s a song Kelly wrote in in 1973 called Looking For Heaven and out-takes from both `Strung Behind the Sun` and `All Clues Lead to Meagan`s Bed.` There are some songs previously only available on magazine compilation CDs and a brand new song, When Natalie Sings. There are two songs originally meant for an unfinished concept album (Forever 13 and The Haunted Dollhouse) based on a strange picture book, `The Haunted Dollhouse" published in the early 1980`s. There are also out-takes from `Northern Gothic,` including the original longer version of `The Bitter Moon,` and some favorite recordings that just never came out, and more.
