Description

Loafers Glory was described by the much missed Utah Phillips himself as:


'For some time now, friends have asked me if I ever had any intention of recording stories - the ruminations, perturbations, fulminations, and rants that often come between songs, enervating what (for some) would be an otherwise blessed silence. (Fie on them!) Well, leaping to command, I have here recorded all of the above. "Loafer's Glory" is a collage of traveling tales excerpted from my live performances over the years, combined with homemade songs never recorded before. All of the instrumental music is provided by longtime friend, Mark Ross of Butte, Montana.'


We really can't add anything worthwhile to that!
