These songs were recorded back in 1997 at Vagrant Recording in Seattle. 
Recorded and produced by Erik 4A in his trademark "garage" style these
mono mixes sat unreleased in his vault for forteen years--until now that
is.  This is a limited pressing of 300, each numbered sequentially, on
green vinyl.

Vagrant Records of Seattle is releasing a 7 inch 45 vinyl record featuring 2 songs by The Green Pajamas recorded in 1997 and (almost) lost in the vaults, "London Sundays" and "She's Had Enough." Both were written by Jeff, circa the early 1980s.  The band line-up at the time was Jeff, Eric and Joe with original drummer, Karl Wilhelm.

Eric Lichter's Picture Day album is the current Green Monkey Records "Album of the Month." From the G.M.R. website:

"Gentle and glorious greetings –

It is February, the month football ends and more importantly, the month of love. And when you think love, I know you first think Picture Day. In January, we paid tribute to the sixties and Jerden Records. This month we go back to the halcyon days of 2010. Eric Lichter has been the new guy in The Green Pajamas for 10 years or so (okay, okay, Scott is newer – so what?) and has been a contributing songwriter as well as player. He writes more stuff than he can shoehorn onto a PJs album and has put out a solo album or two, including the lovely Palm Wine Sunday Blue. Mr. Lichter decided to do another, enlisting among others, his old band mate from The Life, Jimm McIver. The result isPicture Day. Tuneful. Understated. Direct or perhaps oblique. You can check ‘em out on MySpace or go right out and buy ‘em at CDbaby. Buy two."

The new Green Pajamas digital single, Why Good Men Go Bad, will be released on iTunes the week of December 19th.  It will also become available on Napster, eMusic and Amazon MP3.  It kicks off the new album, Green Pajama Country, to be available on CD in early 2011.  

This song is about lust, betrayal, a vengeful ghost and a lot of whisky.  We hope you enjoy it.  

Laura, Joe and Jeff got together last week and recorded What Child Is This, set to the classic "Greensleeves" melody (some say written by Henry VIII) for the new Green Monkey Records charity Christmas collection.  You can get it (and a bunch of other stuff) for a buck here, through December: It's A Green Monkey Christmas
