Welcome to The Motel Lounge! What's your poison? This album blog features a variety of unusual vinyl finds from the days when the only way to reach an audience was for the artist to custom press their own LPs that could be sold in the lounge settings, private parties or weddings at which they performed. I'm here to have fun and hope you will share in my process of discovery!

From the back cover: All the songs on the album, with the exception of "Rose," I wrote in the last year. Father Krumpe and the children are of St. Jude Parish in Bridgetown, Ohio. The title song, Just, I wrote for the Blessed Mother, and Father liked it so much, he and Sister Marura picked the 12 children from the 5th and 6th grade of St. Jude School to sing it with me.
