Unreleased Masters

Years of writing and recording during the "gotta get a major label deal" years of the late 80's and 90's meant that Jensen would record whatever he was writing at the time to cull "demos" for "shopping a deal".  This horrifying process meant trying to figure out what idiots with corporate jobs wanted to hear... and yet was still musically interesting to the artist.  Looking back the artist in him won out over the hopeful pop entertainer.  Jensen seems to have chosen quantity over conformity basically making whole unmixed albums of material.

"The work doesn't sound any more "90's" than it does "60's"... and since the players are all great and the tracks are all clean... this material should come into focus as timeless tracks." - Jensen

We agree. 

Then you can stream them here, download and burn them for your iPod or CD Burner... take them around and pretend it is another era. We await a future moment when great work is once again popular work.  We look forward to those of you who discovering this material blogging your reactions to it, sharing it with friends and putting it in your movies and embedding them on your sites.
