‘Finally’ C&P memorialize their music as a duo. If the CD has Chris singing that song with the lyrics, the “…horses ass”, it will be worth the price of admission. He is a passionate singer who has lived the life of an half crazed, alcoholic, mountain-man artist. (Think he’d agree with that). If you haven’t, hear him while he’s hot (vertical; above ground; still breathing).

Hi Peter, I don’t know that you’ll see this nor if you’ll remember me, but I’m back in Humboldt County after many years away. I hope next Summer I’ll see you & Chris at a Southern Humboldt festival. Tell Chris hello. Dave Trabue

Is this the same Peter Childs that played in a band back in the ’80’s with Brian Sprowel? I was one of his roommates at the big house in Weott

The CD sounds great, and you get the additional enjoyment of knowing you’re supporting local music, especially two long-time SoHum talents!

Yeah…if I turn it up real loud will it keep the bears out of the trash cans? Congratulations you guys. A lot of memories around your performances. One of the benefits of growing old here in So Hum.

Dave, I’m sure that I speak for Chris as well as myself when I say that the CD, far from repelling the bears, will be much more likely to bring them in, arrange them in a circle, put them in a peaceful mood, and make them our friends. I’d say order several to ensure ecological harmony in the ‘hood.

Next time you run into Chris, ask him about the bear that sat in his yard looking right at him and happily going through the pile of old plastic bags he had in his lap. Best, Peter

I still have the tape of Chris singing at my 23rd birthday party at the old ranch house below Chris’s. Now I’m turning 70! How time flies. I tell the story of finding books in the apartment I was moving into in Cambridge MA with the name Peter Childs in them. When my roommate and I moved to CA we shipped the books also. Then I met a Peter Childs when I lived up Salmon Creek. They turned out to be his books! I will be ordering this CD for sure.

Is it still possible to get a copy of the 2017 CD by Chris McCurdy and Peter Childs? I don’t visit this website often, so could you please EMAIL ME the best way to purchase this CD? I would prefer to order it online, but if that’s not possible, send the snail address and current price and I’ll send it along. Thanks in advance — [email protected]
