This record was mixed at Toast Studios in San Francisco, by Jaquire King. Not Colored Too Perfect[edit] This record is a compilation of unreleased material, the bulk of which was recorded in San Rafael, CA in the fall of 1997. Two other songs on this compilation, "You're Smiling" and "Wait Up" were recorded in Santa Barbara, CA in the summer of 1995. The final two songs, "Trace of a Cat's Eye" and "Vandalized" were taken from the unreleased record by Nathanson's college band Here Comes Everybody. The HCE album was recorded in Claremont, CA, in the spring of 1995 but was never released. Both these songs were written by the drummer in the band, Bill Foreman. Still Waiting for Spring[edit] Recorded December 1998 in Cotati, CA. and January 1999 at Tiny Telephone Studios in San Francisco, with Mark Weinberg.

Produced by Butch Walker, the album is "about being jealous of the cool kids who got to spend their summers on Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard.
