One Lucky Dog
One Lucky Dog was inspired by the irony in this sad picture from Madagascar. We were all feeling a bit pathetic at this juncture ourselves...so much so that we used the shot on the CD cover. It revealed a hint of the inevitable group drama that reared it's forehead as we rounded 3rd base. So The Snaz & BC co-writing team was loosening our hoary grasp on the Monster's musical ID (& ego) at this juncture. To translate, we had become polarized by conflicting approaches to the creative process. To translate further; there was a kind of garage-sale template to our musical madness. Still, we added several new compositions that really rocked owing to increasing solidarity among the Monsters & Wayne Ahlberg's solid bass footprint on the reimagining of our previously unpublished work. We were all thrilled & surprised...even knocked-out in an MMA kind of way by the resulting scrappy CD package. But our joy was suddenly & sadly tempered with the untimely passing of rock-guitar master & friend Tony Gage. So, like the pup in the photo, we picked up what scraps we could & moved on. --BC
