MAKING THE SAINT

Making The Saint is my third full-length record. I love small records. When I say small record, I think of Sandy Bull's Fantasias for Guitar and Banjo, Bill Evans trio recordings at the Village Vanguard, Fripp & Eno's No Pussyfooting, or Thelonius Monk's sublime Solo Monk. Each of these albums is simple. They're direct. Making The Saint is a small record too. I didn't belabor it. The recording and mixing came quickly. I followed my instincts. This album is also a spiritual retreat for me; a healthy and necessary separation after so many strong collaborations. - Chris Schlarb?TRACK LISTING:?(SIDE A) ?1. Making The Saint (19:09) ?2.
