Track from unreleased Peter Schmidt album now on MySpace

A couple of years ago, I recorded an album for Peter Schmidt & His Gentleman Scholars which never saw an official release. Quite a shame, as I personally think it’s Peter’s best work in an already-impressive 20 year music career. Recently, though, he posted a track from the album, “Who Will Forgive You?”, on MySpace.

As you probably know, Peter’s been at the helm of many important Dallas bands over the years (Three On A Hill, Funland, and Legendary Crystal Chandelier), as well as having a hand in Bedhead (filling in for Tench Coxe as “Substitute Schmidt”) and The New Year. I hope the rest of this impressive album finds its way out into the world eventually.
