    Does anyone know why "Welcome to Discovery Park" is not available on Apple Music with the other Brad cds? 
    No idea, but I have noticed that their catalog management is a bit odd. Sometime, nothing is available on Spotify or just one album...or the whole catalog. If you need the mp3's, just shoot me a pm and I can email them to you when I get home tonight.
    Thanks for offering!  No need to send them though because I still have my cd. 

    Sometimes I just like to listen to things on Apple Music on my iPad while I’m grading papers because it’s convenient. 
    Me too! No longer need to be camped out near my big stereo whilst grading.

    From Stone’s Spin interview:

    Although never originally signed to Loosegroove, Brad — a softer-rocking Pearl Jam detour for Gossard featuring Hagar on drums and beloved vocalist Shawn Smith up front — helped inspire Gossard and Hagar to start the label in the first place. The group released five albums for a variety of labels before Smith passed away suddenly on April 3, 2019, at age 53. 

    Smith left behind vocals for several new Brad songs, and Gossard, Hagar and longtime bassist Keith Lowe have since put the finishing touches on those tracks and hope to release them on a new album by late 2022. 

    “As we got closer to feeling like it was getting done, there was a lot of renewed enthusiasm about the fact that it has a rawness to it that has always been part of Brad, and really suits us,” Gossard says. “I think if anything, our records had become a little bit more polished and a little bit more calculated. This one has some beautiful, beautiful Shawn performances. I’m confident that if you’re a Brad fan, you’re going to like the record.

    This is good news, and maybe not the last BRAD release under Loosegroove Records!

    New Brad music is always welcome. Heck anything Stone puts out is welcome to me. Based on the two drops from the new Painted Shield album so far I am looking forward to the release in April.

    Brad was by far the best Side Project band...due mostly to Shawn Smith.  What a treasure he and his voice were.

    No doubt about it. They were easily one of my all time favorite bands.

    Yes he was. And Stone's work was just amazing!

    That guitar riff ....

    This is what it’s about to me. What a sweet gesture to honor Shawn and the band.
