about

“The Rosary and The House of Jade” is a love story that happened, mostly by accident, as each song was written and recorded. I was intending to write out the whole story for the original release but was, more than once, told by those that had heard the tape that it might be better to let people make of it what they may, based on what they hear instead of what they might read.
So here’s a concept album, written and recorded quickly, right along side mixing “Strung Behind The Sun,” originally for Susanne’s and my own amusement. Hope you like it. -JK
