Product Description
Glenn Mercer's first-ever solo album Wheels In Motion seems to come at a time when other influential artists are busy reuniting and reconnecting with past material. But former lead singer, guitarist & composer of the highly influential band The Feelies chooses another path by delivering a hypnotic, highly melodic and often reflective album. Glenn adds, "The record is a very personal and intimate reflection on where I am, where I've been and where I'm going. The best part of the project was the opportunity to re-unite with a few old friends to play music. When I wrote and recorded the songs, I wanted the interplay between the guitar and vocal to be the main focus, building the track from that point." After a 5-year hiatus from his last recording project Wake Ooloo, Glenn seems re-energized, re-focused and not afraid to lead us through his personal journey while showing us his influence by artists he knows, respects and admires such as Velvet Underground, Bob Dylan & Luna. Performers on the record include ex-Feelies: Stan Demeski, Vinny DeNunzio, Dave Weckerman, Anton Fier (all played drums on various tracks) and Brenda Sauter (bass).

Now, how about some fucking Feelies reissues with bonus material. Or better yet, how about a smoking live CD.....because God knows they were a top notch live band anyway..........M.

No kidding.
The Feelies are one of my favorite bands.
Looking forward to Glenn's CD.

Any comments?

Got it yesterday from Pravda, sounds nice, it's missing that Feelies spark though. I wasn't expecting Time For A Witness pt 2 but I did think he'd bare a little more of his soul. hopefully it'll be a grower.

Thanks for the comments, Steve G. I'll probably go ahead and get it.

I thought I recently read somewhere about upcoming Feelies reissues. I can't find anything about it now. Maybe it was an April Fool's joke.

BTW, the second entry I see on a google search for "Feelies reissues" is this thread.
