Faith Brothers - A Human Sound (1987)

In which we imagine a world where the compact disc was introduced in 1980, and now-obscure artists and albums could be preserved for posterity...

Faith Brothers - A Human Sound (1987)
  1. With no constitution but my own
  2. That's just the way that it is with me
  3. Saint of contradiction
  4. You can't go home again
  5. Isolato
  6. Dancing with Peter Pan's shadow
  7. Consider me
  8. A welcome pain
  9. May your children speak well of you, Mother Tongue
  10. A boy and the river
