Anderson,Derrick World Of My Own CD

Before touring with Dave Davies (The Kinks) and becoming bassist for The Bangles in 2008, Derrick Anderson (with The Andersons!) romped throughout Los Angeles from 1995-2004 fl ashing an energized, cheeky brand of pop/rock. But fi nally, it's time for Derrick to arrive as a solo artist. A World Of My Own draws inspiration from the Cavern Club, Brill Building and Laurel Canyon, and the album's 13 songs feature guest performances from an array of kindred spirits. A World Of My Own opens with the upbeat "Send Me Down A Sign" and heavy-hitting "Waiting For You," which feature backing by The Smithereens (Pat Dinizio, Jim Babjak, Dennis Diken, and Severo Jornacion). The sonic punch of "Waiting For You" is heightened by a panoramic mix from producer Ed Stasium. Renowned for his work with Ramones, The Smithereens and Talking Heads, Stasium mixed two additional tracks on A World Of My Own: the party-driven "Stop Messin' About" and a wild-and-woolly cover of The Beatles' "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)."
