About The Album
"Trey Spruance from Mimicry records approached me with the idea," says David Brown, the leader of the Brazzaville, "of putting out a record that would introduce Brazzaville to a wider audience."
Welcome to… Brazzaville' features songs from the first three/four records as well as a couple of new ones ("Love Sky", "Christmas in East Cirebon" and later "Last Days", "Hotel Ukraina").
""Love Sky" is the story of my mother and father and of distant memories I have of going to work with my father when he was still a trucker, hauling shipping containers from Long Beach and San Pedro to the train yards in Vernon.
"Christmas in EC" is about a couple of young low budget travelers whose lovely existence gets destroyed by heroin."
