    We scoured our basements and storage sheds and found brand new, never played copies of our debut 7" single!

    "I for an I" was released on our 1998 CD, while "Living the Still Life" and "Arnold's Monster" showed up on our "Early Tracks" compilation from 2010.

    The vinyl was mastered and pressed at MusiCol studios, once home to the CapSoul label and the thriving 70s R&B music scene of Columbus, Ohio.

about

Also released on Orchestraville's self-titled debut CD, it was originally released on this 7" single.

lyrics

I can see him slyly
In the back of an old cave
Knowing just what he wants
Then again he might not
I can see it in his eyes

As a young boy I saw
People like you hiding
Never gave yourself up
While the wick was burning
I can see it in your eyes

But the grade won't make the man
I can tell you everything you've wanted

All the time dissolving
Everything you wanted
Everyone you gave up
Passing right before your eyes

But the clothes won't make the man
I can tell you everything you wanted

He's not smiling
And you know as well as I
All he wants is an I for an I
