This past January of '92, Mr. Myers celebrated it's 11 year anniversary, (and it's been a great time!!!). Over the years, there have been certain songs that have become audience favorites, or "trademark" songs that people have come to know and love at our live shows. Our main goal in recording this project was to capture the fun and the energy of a live Mr. Myers show; another goal was to finally record those audience favorites to preserve them forever. To accomplish this and still retain a clean sound, we decided to record "live in the studio" and bring the crowd along with us! We performed 2 shows at the Noise Chamber Recording Studio with fans, friends, and family members present. (You can even hear my daughter Danielle make her presence known between a few songs!). The result is a live recording that captures many of the audience favorites that people keep asking for, as well as some personal favorites.There are also 3 new originals that we think you'll enjoy. So, for all of our fans who keep coming out to see us live, and for those of you who might be hearing us "live" for the first time, close your eyes and imagineyoučre here ... "Live At Last!"
