Rise Again — Julia Ecklar (Cassette edition)

You can’t go back in time and experience a young Julia Ecklar performing filk for a small convention audience ever again. So we’ve created the next best thing — a time capsule packaged in an Off Centaur-inspired cassette.

Using rediscovered tapes originally recorded by Art “Boots” Coleman — and meticulously restored and remastered from the original analog by Phil Klum — we’ve brought for you the energy, the fun, and the magic of Julia’s performances from the early era of filk. 

This cassette tape features Julia during her prime performing years at the Darkover Grand Council convention in 1988 and 1991.

We’re lucky to have had Don Simpson (illustrator for many Off Centaur tapes, including Julia’s) provide the packaging design.
