solo effort in 1990. He had been playing in electric
bands for over 20 years and had grown weary of
hauling equipment across state lines each weekend.
Through this electric garage-band period he had
also played fiddle and mandolin. By doing so he felt
a strong need to play acoustic roots type music. Out
of this need grew an analogue four track tape
machine and the album Fistful –o- Fun. Morehouse
dropped out of the garage-band scene to play
mandolin and over the next five years several
hundred copies were sold in cassette form across
the bandstand and at festival ‘pickin sessions’.
Recently, people have asked for the project to be
converted over for the cd players in their new
vehicles. Enough so that Morehouse took the tape
into the studio (In the Chips Production) and cleaned
it a bit without losing the old-timey feel for which the
album was known. Now available in cd form this is
the perfect addition to any old-time collection.
