about

100 Poems About Monkeys was originally a CD included in the art-book, 100 Poems About Monkeys.

All fifty copies of the hand-made book have been sold, but the poems are available here for your listening astonishment.

Because I respect you, I've omitted seventeen of the lesser tracks, leaving you with 83 glorious bits of doggerel set to song.

released June 1, 2007

Soapy Argyle, The Learning Curve, Uziego, Jason McDaniel, and Maureen.

Sparky the Dog has been good since 1999. We celebrate the underdog, we put art over commerce, and we love you. ... more
