    Wanna trip out? Listen to Glenn's 13-song tape of alternative rock tunes that ramble from driving tunes, like: "Help Me Understand," with great acoustic texturing; to the psychedelic grunge of "Everything is OK;" to the steel guitar accompaniment of "Holding On;" to the very Zeppelin-esque title track "Under The Desert Moon;" to the very cool Alice In Chains-ish "Somebody Done You Wrong;" to the Lennon-esque "Jesus Wept." You get it all here. While this description may sound like a confusing landscape, there is a consistent strong voice to point the way through all the tunes.
