CD (Re)Release! - Available Now!

Okay, time to make good on a promise (or threat!) from an earlier post about putting out into the cyber world my music for sale.  The masterplan was three different musical collections.  And so far...

Here's #1!  "a little unplugged"
Steve Probst: a little unplugged

I shall quote the album notes (I'm actually quoting myself since I wrote the darn things!)

"Faith-encouraging Contemporary Christian Rock songs with thought-provoking lyrics from Steve's earlier recording days. All instruments and vocals performed and recorded by Steve.

"'a little unplugged' looks back on the recorded archives of Steve's musical history, when all he had studio-wise to work with were eight tracks of recordable "sound-canvas". Playing all the instruments, singing all the lead and background vocals, "programming" the drums - he's done it all on this inspired early work and first release. There are many more in songs in the Contemporary Christian genre that he has yet to record!"


The CD (download and/or actual CD in jewel case) can be found by clicking on the album cover above.

"a little unplugged" CD download can also be found at:

GoogleMusic   iTunes   Amazon   Bandcamp

*** PS. I have chosen a title for Album #2.  It shall be named "Window Seat" after the song of the same name from that particular period of my songwriting and recording endeavors.  Look for it shortly at these same online locations.

Manifesto-State of the Union-Resolution-Extravaganza


It's a resplendently sunny day cruising on the highways of Florida as I check in with the blog.  Here's some things I'm thinking right now:

xI propose to put out 3 different CD collections of songs (with lyrics, singing and stuff),  throughout the channels of commercial cyber space. (Yo, I'm gonna put more effort into hawking my stuff!)


CD #1. I still have a box full of these: Title "a little unplugged". A six-song collection of Christian tunes written, performed, and recorded by me.  They chronicle some of my first recordings on my "older/first" studio equipment.  These are actual CD's in a jewel box. 

Allow me to point some things out. :) - (Photo: Shari Hogue)
CD #2 - Maybe titling this one "The Early Years" ( I know, so plain, so boring) or something like that.  (Any suggestions?  Comment below!)  Newer recording gear but still from a few years back, these tracks are all featured on my Music Page.  At last! they will be available together in "album" form (but probably only as digital downloads right now - iTunes, CD Baby, etc)  Once again, written, performed, and recorded by me. 

CD #3 - The new stuff on the current studio setup! Redundantly speaking: Written, performed, and recorded by me.  Like #2, it will be made available initially as a download.  I have lots of tunes to record, hopefully ASAP.  We'll see with the traveling schedule and all how it progresses. 

I've gotten encouraging reactions from some...."test pressings".  You won't find these songs, recorded in my home studio, on the top of the charts as is, but who cares!  I am my own record company!  The music's recorded, why not share?  To recap: CD's 1 & 2 will be making their appearance on the web before CD 3 (due to the magical creative process still in progress!)

Thanks for reading, thanks for your support, stay tuned!

I shall hit "return" and 2012 continues!
