The New America The New America
A jaunty little number, fully orchestrated and nasty. We're not as free as we think, but we're freer than we act.
Let's Get The Band Back Together Let's Get The Band Back Together
Picture a middle-aged ex-musician clearing out his old cassette tapes.

This CD alternates dejection with hope. I always liked these chords. Placed one after the other, they're even better.

WHO IS IT?
Gilbert Neal.
WHAT IS THIS?
Gilbert Neal’s new 2013 CD, “Dirty Red Pagan”. A CD funded in part by a successful Kickstarter campaign.
WHAT’S THE MUSIC LIKE?
It’s pop/soul. Fast numbers, slow ones, ballads, humor and true life stories. Sounds like Stevie Wonder and Steely Dan had a baby and made it listen to David Bowie and the Swingle Singers all its wretched but funky life.
WHO’S PLAYING?
Gilbert Neal on vocals, piano, guitar and bass. Steve Camilleri on drums, Darrelll Nutt on percussion, Marko Marisic on good guitar parts, and Pamela Henderson on backing vocals.
WHAT’S A “DIRTY RED PAGAN”?
An anagram of “Andy Partridge”. The great XTC front-man gave his enthusiastic blessing to use that as the CD’s title. It’s an apt one considering the somewhat socialist, somewhat sexual, and somewhat godless messages in the lyrics.
WHO IS GILBERT NEAL?
A multi-instrumentalist and songwriter. He was born in Buffalo, NY and now lives in Hillsborough, NC. He has performed in many kinds of ensembles through the years. Jazz, theater, funk, 50’s, soul, prog, etc. This is his 4th complete solo work, the previous three being Drink The Beast With Me (2006), “Our Deepest Apathy” (2008) and Vultures and Diamonds (2010).
