about

At some point I realized that the pre-legendary Smellicopter was going to be something like 15 songs. Too much! So, I focused on the songs featuring international guest stars including Yani Martinelli and Roland Wolff. That left five stellar songs performed by local Virginia talent "in the can," as they used to say, for inclusion on a future full-length album. Then...well...many terrible true life things happened and I got lost. Eventually, I decided that these songs should stand by themselves as an ep because they are from the same time, were for the same original project, and most of the players are the same on every song. I have also lost track of several of the players now and this is a little memorium to our time together. Some fantastic pop here. Lots of great singing by ME. Some clever stuff. I hope you agree.

A mini-review courtesy Powerpopaholic: "Scott Brookman returns with a sequel to his successful LP Smellicopter. Another master of melody with subtle and sparse instrumentation, “Consideration” is influenced by Something/Anything era Todd Rundgren and the fun “Three Doors Down” has a very 10cc-like composition. This EP isn’t free, but for a mere $5.00 it’s worth getting."

From Pure Pop Radio's Favorite Records of the Year 2017: "Four years and seven months on from the mighty Smellicopter, Richmond, Virginia’s favorite son returns with this top-flight five-song sequel, a sterling collection of pop songs that should not only please fans but also draw in new Brookman connoisseurs. From the opening marriage of ’70s Todd Rundgren and late-’90s June and the Exit Wounds ambiance, “Consideration,” to “Old Bones Found,” a clever, catchy mix of pure pop styles, Smellicopter Two delivers the goods." --Alan Haber
