As a preview to Gateway To Joy, Red Bliss used their Rough Trade distributed Axis label to bring along Wilmington, North Carolina's Brickbat.  The single was used as a lynchpin for tour dates from Boston to North Carolina if I remember correctly.

Brickbat was led by James Sardone whose Western Swing act Jimmy Nations Combo I put out on Rubric in 2000.  They were far from Western Swing, being dirt kicking rock.  For a sweet touch they covered the Bee Gee's "Holiday"

Axis went down for the count along with that era of Rough Trade, so Red Bliss tracks are out of streaming commission, but the Brickbat tracks were issued on their debut cd.  The only difference between the Red Bliss songs here and what came out on Gateway is a radio version (WMFO in Medford, Tufts station I believe) of Carreiro's anthem "Number 9."

The cat changes everything.
