Ballew's notes for the record call it a compilation of \"the very best songs\" from I Am Not Me, Soul Unfolded, Primitive God and Bone By Bone. Those four albums arrived at six-month intervals, from I Am Not Me in July 2021 to Bone By Bone on January 13, 2023, and this 2026 pressing reissues the compilation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sequence draws on all four. Cold Cold Sheets, Just Untwist and Primitive God itself come from Primitive God, released July 15, 2022. Star Map Of A Soul, Bone By Bone and Your Own Thing are the opening three tracks of Bone By Bone, which Ballew wrote, recorded, performed and produced himself, with Pete Droge and Mark Heberlein as co-producers. My Heart Is On Loan To You and Soul Unfolded come from Soul Unfolded, and Teeny Tiny Flower from I Am Not Me. On his Bandcamp page Ballew describes this body of work as \"fuzzy psychedelic meditative fun loopy music for grown-up brains.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBallew is best known as the lead singer and bassist of the Presidents of the United States of America, the Seattle band he formed in 1993 and which ran until 2015; its single \"Lump\" reached number one on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart in 1995. From 2009 to 2021 he recorded for young children and their parents as Caspar Babypants, and the solo albums sampled here followed from 2021. He is known for playing a two-string \"basitar\" and for working without distortion pedals, taking his grit from the amplifier itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCold Cold Sheets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBone By Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour Own Thing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Heart Is On Loan To You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolyphonic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoul Unfolded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeeny Tiny Flower\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust Untwist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRadar Mind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStar Map Of A Soul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimitive God\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubmicroscopic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 840526511730\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aurora Elephant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.14.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Aurora Elephant Music","offers":[{"title":"NEW \/ NEW","offer_id":48229875089566,"sku":"EVP-B91691D9-NEW-NEW-NONE0000","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8801\/1422\/files\/4522967-3621995_bbd9572e-bf2f-4a2c-8854-f4a998b7abdf.jpg?v=1788379230","url":"https:\/\/evergreenvinyl.com\/products\/chris-ballew-volume-one-vinyl","provider":"Evergreen Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
