      I think this album was basically self released by Roland himself. He had no record company, and he founded his own label, if I am not mistaken... I don't know about publishing and distribution, maybe he signed a deal with some company for physical distribution.... He could probably upload it to streaming platforms, but maybe he doesn't want to....
      I'd love to be able to hear these songs in their original quality, so digital distribution would be nice since I am pretty sure that CDs will never be reprinted 🤷‍♂️
      We as fans should make him an official request 😃😄😁

    It's Friday night and you've got no steel
    You can cry all you like
    But the truth still hurts and the hurt still bites
    And it all comes down to a very low high
    No give - no take
    You can't rely on a state of grace
    You can cry all you like
    But the pressure's on when the vein gets tight
    And it's all because of these cynical times
    Low life, low life
    No aim -no goal
    No guiding light that can take control
    You can cry all you like
    But you still don't speak to a world outside
    And it's all because of the sun in your eyes
    Low life, low life
    You can have it all but not at all fill that hole
    You can make this deal go underground
    All the saints are praying hard for your soul
    You can buy some wheels and run them down

    Sadly, this amazing album had the unfortunate timing of being released when Napster and other download sites were becoming huge and music sales dropped significantly. I'm not sure why Roland didn't just use the TFF moniker for this album. The quality is definitely up there with albums like Elemental (which I also love).

      Creo que esta canción no está disponible en servicios de streaming. Es de los años 2000.
