Here is my latest. I enjoyed making this CD more than any other in my discography. It reminded me how much fun it is to be a kid again. :)

 

"Forks on Lids" is probably my favorite, the only one with me playing guitar.  This image, also in the main CD page below, has a picture of all the instruments used on the CD. http://www.krispenhartung.com/music-unfit-for-children/tray-card.jpg
