Thought this was interesting. From TBP web site:
__Is it new, or isn't it?__
Parallel - The Black Dog
No, it isn't new material, and I am very sorry if you have been misled
into thinking otherwise. Sadly, the situation has been out of my control.
The Black Dog had no participation in compilation, artwork, release
dates, or any other thing beyond initially recording the tracks and
selling them to GPR.
The new new album from The Black Dog is still being recorded, and is on
target for a release date of March 15th 1996. And, there will be several
other "interesting" projects surfacing before then.
If you did buy it, then thank you very much. It stands as a record of our
early days, but not much more. We have moved on a lot since then, and
will try to make it up to you in the future, now that we're less niave.
