Recorded at Marc Chiat's Red Dog Studio, Culver City; The Pass, Los Angeles; Sunset Sound, Hollywood; and Sound Image, Van Nuys.
Mastered at Ocean Way.
The Sermon On Exposition Boulevard began recording at Red Dog Marc Chiat's Art Studio in Culver City, California during the summer of 2005 and was completed in the summer of 2006 at Sunset Sound. The inspration for the songs came from the Lee Cantelon's book The Words, a modern rendering of the words of Christ. Many of the songs on the completed CD are first-take improvisations (Nobody Knows My Name, Where I Like It Best, I Was There, Donkey Ride). From the beginning we worked in a sprit of community and collabration that seemed to spring from the text. (Rickie Lee Jones)
