Due to an oversight, Lara Polangco was not credited with co authorship of the tune "Sad Affair", this mistake will be corrected, as well as a new cd booklet, in the next printing of the CD. "Sad Affair" is, and will be, credited to McGuinness/Polangco, or removed.
This was a stupid oversight in the back and forth of the graphics and was in no way a malicious act towards Lara Polangco, or an effort to plaguerize or take full credit for a song we written by both of us.
My sincerest apologies to Lara Polangco for this mistake. It will be fixed.

"Sad Affair" - (McGuinness/Polangco) - track 8 on "From These Seeds..."

thanks

Review of "From these Seeds..."
author: Chrisr at CD Baby

What is the term for that certain elusive musical quality that encompasses the wisdom of the past while also giving the listener a unique glimpse into the future? Oh, yeah! "Timeless." Every artist strives for it. Few achieve it.  Fewer still achieve it in a genre so well-worn as the Blues. But Joe McGuinness has managed to create a truly timeless blues album. Full of soulfulness and authenticity, "From These Seeds" is a collection of back-porch folk blues made by a man so skilled at deft fingerpicking and agile singing that he can forget about technique altogether and let his heart do the talking. His funky and syncopated acoustic guitar work lands him somewhere between Robert Johnson and Bruce Cockburn. And from his ragged yet acrobatic vocals, you can tell that Joe has been drinking from the same well as Tom Waits and Greg Brown. He mixes the very best elements of old school delta blues, country, pop, and folk to somehow stir up a fresh and magical sound that is neither modern nor antiquated. It's simply a sound that rings true.

today was just a really good day. Thats it. wanted to share.
