Development Projects
Custer's early development projects, southern rockers Cry of Love and Custer's own funk creation, DAG were both signed to Columbia in the early '90's.
Cry of Love's first single, "Peace Pipe" went to #1 on Billboard Rock Radio charts. Their second single, "Bad Thing", co-written with Custer went to #2.
DAG's first release, Righteous was recorded at Muscle Shoals, with Custer producing, writing and co-writing the tracks. True to 1970s funk, Righteous featured guest performances by Roger Hawkins of the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and jazz trumpeter Jeremy Davenport.

Famous quotes containing the words development and/or projects:
“... work is only part of a man’s life; play, family, church, individual and group contacts, educational opportunities, the intelligent exercise of citizenship, all play a part in a well-rounded life. Workers are men and women with potentialities for mental and spiritual development as well as for physical health. We are paying the price today of having too long sidestepped all that this means to the mental, moral, and spiritual health of our nation.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“One of the things that is most striking about the young generation is that they never talk about their own futures, there are no futures for this generation, not any of them and so naturally they never think of them. It is very striking, they do not live in the present they just live, as well as they can, and they do not plan. It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for a future, none at all.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
