Personal Thoughts

This was my first collection of music. I remember it being thrown together a bit hastily because two of my friends were moving to California and I wanted to show it to them. Yeah, just show it to them. I handed it to one of them and he said thanks, but then I took it back. I made the photocopy using an old Xerox machine in the back of a Drug Mart on Leavitt Road in Amherst, Ohio.

Cover

The picture of the ghost on the front of the cassette insert was a decoration I made for my quad in the Convocation Center during Halloween weekend. I used a few sheets to create the ghost and hung it from the stairway leading-up to my room. Upon using it for the cover, I named the record label "Scary Music!" and it more-or-less has stuck with me throughout the years.

Name

The original name that chose for myself was "The Shadows" but I was completely unaware of the actual band The Shadows. Eventually, I settled on the name "Full Sun" based-on a painting that I made in the fall of 1994.
