About the Album: Dick is all grown up now. He has a job, security and a lovely girlfriend. He just can't stand one more day. the Essential Cubicle Nosepicker questions the value of modern employment, personal gain, and the discovery that one must love oneself before loving his environment. Dick, not strong enough to find this, abandon's his adult life and runs to the sea. Don't let the funny title fool you. This is a serious adult contempory CD that is smart, sophisticated, challenging and beautiful. This by adults for adults. It is pretty and chordant with singing and piano, without being sacharine or trite. _____ THE SONGS range from funny and uplifting (although sarcastic and quirky) to downright sad and pondersome. The lyrics are of adult themes, and by that we mean self-actualization, self-worth, love, work, responsibility, goal-attainment, alcoholism and death. They frame into a story - like a light-wieght opera or a well-connected concept-record. A couple singing about their love and their intellectual troubles. Its smart and pretty. THE MUSIC is wild hot piano, influenced by classical and punk and jazz and show music. Its theatrical and grand and hyper and melodic. It has some frantic, Listz-like moments, others are sedate and thoughtful, others are playful like children's music or a parade. You can still hear Till's maniacal Screwtape and TASM nuances and humor, just slightly handicapped by the piano's natural chordance and reservation. (is this making sense?). The music is punctuated by moments of violin and fretless bass and classical guitar to sometimes achieve a chamber affect.
