"This record was originally
issued on In The Red and the Workdogs were never happy with it. RobK revisited
the master tapes and remixed the new record. He added nearly 40 minutes of previously
unreleased material from the One Night Only sessions, including a board tape of
the band - Workdogs featuring Jon Spencer and Jerry Teel - at CBGB'S. Hear Jon Spencer's
very first forays into playing the Theremin. Hear a passle of new RobK lyrics. These
remixed tapes are currently being remastered by legendary producer Jim Waters and
will be the first release on the newly revamped King Dog Biscuit CD label." - workdogs.net

SLEEVE NOTES: |
"Perhaps the most odious aspect of managing
the Workdogs is fielding the inevitable phone call from their sideman on the day
after a hot gig. Basking in the afterglow of the previos p.m., he or she is full
of blues bravado and bluster and ready to take on the entire planet siding with
the 'dogs. It is my disagreeable duty to have to bring them back to reality - the
Workdogs gig is - ONE NIGHT ONLY!
It is the principal that the Workdogs were built upon: every guest shall have his
or her chance to blow the 'dogs into another dimension - each and every one of them
bringing something special and unique to the stage - for ONE NIGHT ONLY!
That's all you get. It wouldn't be the way the Workdogs want it - DIFFERENT - each
and every night, if they didn't change the lineup each and every night. I show compassion
and offer the consolation that there will be some sort of alumni reunion as there
usually is - ONE NIGHT ONLY!
I never mention the Workdogs' penchant for pairing improbable sideman combos like
slide trombone and lap steel guitar, or inviting ten musicians to participate in
a karaoke cover band. That's the chance they take playing with the Workdogs. Odds
are that they will never see Rob and Scott again. Or maybe they'll get a phone call
at 4 a.m. some Sunday night with some strange address and an invitation to jam -
ONE NIGHT ONLY!
But musicians are a depressing lot, prone to morosity and tending to dwell on imagined
wrongs. I have had to take out restraining orders against more than one fanatical
sideman to discourage their obsessive behavior. Fortunately this did not apply to
the two sidemen represented here. They understood instinctively that this was it
- the night that all the other nights had been leading up to - ONE NIGHT ONLY!"
