In December of 1977, Jerome Jarvis and David Woodhead drove from Ontario to the islands of British Columbia to meet up with Paul Gellman and make new music in an entirely new setting. Already busy freelance players on the Ontario folk scene, the decision was made to focus on one group and see where it went. This recording is the result.
    With the help of friend Bob Gibson, halls were booked, festivals and dances were played, and a tour of the Kootenays done, all in the year 1978. The whole enterprise was very much an extension of the members' experiences in the place they met - the Black Swan coffee house in Stratford, and each had toured and recorded as members of Perth County Conspiracy (does not exist), a creative and anarchic collective of musicians, poets, toy-makers, dancers, cider-distributors, mimes and espresso consumers well known across Canada.
