Default Seattle's Sadhappy

I could only find YouTubes for their excellent first full length album "Depth Charge". This lineup featured Paul Hinkin on bass (maybe the best musician I've ever met), Evan Schiller on drums, and Skerik on Sax. After Skerik left (I believe to form Critters Buggin'), they did the ovious thing that a bass/drum/sax band would do, replaced the sax player with an EVEN BETTER bass player than the incredible Hinkin, they brought in Michael Manring for their best album IMO, "Good Day Bad Dream". I seem to have lost my copy of GDBD in my recent move, as soon as I find a copy I will share it with the board.

In 2005 PH left and Mike Keneally joined ES and MM to make "Outerspaces", which was an excellent album but, as much as I love the album and MK, I never got my head wrapped around it as a Sadhappy album. To me, Paul was the heart and soul of Sadhappy
