Bomb was an all time fave of my ex- husbands, and it was Sean who sought out MWD. We were in the process of relocating from Dallas to San Francisco, when a friendship was fostered. By the time we landed in SF, talks were already spinning on a release. MWD is a self promoting (egomaniac) short man with the exact same kind of teeth that I have – grey ones (nope, no pearly whites here) unfortunately a side effect from a drug they no longer prescribe to pregnant women or infants, because, “ta-da”, it horribly discolors the enamel of teeth. When Michael starts on a project he is unstoppable, which is the beauty of working with him. This was the first and only “multi-media CD” released as well as the LAST Direct Hit release. I think this slice of CD history is a perfect reflection of the quintessential sober Michael – this CD is totally MWD, from his writing to his artwork to his music. Only element missing from this CD is his new found passion and excellent production of film (check out “DYI or DIE” and “It/ll Be Better Tomorrow”) Many reasons why this is the last DH release, but most evident is the missing money element. We didn’t even do a cover or insert for packaging – this pup is packaged in a clear slim CD case with an avery sticker stuck on the back with the CD info. Unfortunately for MWD my life was spiraling into a nasty bout of depression with the workings of a divorce in progress. Michael was a good sport, and saw the writing on the wall, so MWD did what he does best … self promoted. The reviewers didn’t dig this and only slammed it in the rags, but I think this is a tasty little treat slid in somewhere from Bomb to Books to Indie Film Director/Producer – this CD fits right on into the mix.
