about

Patrick Tottenham's first release as The Fleece. Patrick sold the tapes himself and on consignment at Instant Karma, a tiny record store in Orleans, MA. I believe this was the winter of 1995 if my memory serves (and it often doesn't, but it's definitely in that general timeframe). He released all of his music under the label Teagown Records - teagownrecords.bandcamp.com

These are some of Patrick's earliest home four-track recordings. Quite a few of these songs would get recorded again later by other incarnations of The Fleece with a full band, but these recordings capture a certain raw emotional energy as well as the experimental creativity of a young man learning his craft.

I am uploading this on December 20, 2022. I will leave payments open for a week and any money from that will be donated to Patrick's family for funeral expenses. If you wish to donate directly, this is the link: www.gofundme.com/f/patrick-tottenham
